He has a badass name.

He had fantastic hair

Alright Emperor. OK philosopher. Shit at picking heirs.

I think he's a bit too much of a meme.

Stoicism lacks what most philosophy lacks, which is a realm of pragmatic action; e.g there will always be a gap between what you profess to believe, what you want to believe is true, and what you really believe and how you act.

He seems to lack consistency with some of his statements.

Fantastic emporer, whose choice of heir completely fucked Rome over. But he was the closest the world has seen to a philosopher king.

A good and conscientious man.
But a weak and ineffective Emperor.
