I think the idea that Jin hates Noel because he hates Saya is wrong. He probably hates Noel because she's ''Noel. ''Can't do any job properly, whines about every non-ideal situation, and tries so hard to be Saya when she's not.

Evidence points to Jin loving Saya, like Wheel of Fortune, his I-thought-Nu-was-Saya moment, and the fact that he never let go of Yukianesa, who was given to him by her. Just because he was jealous of her, doesn't mean he hated her. It could be that he loves her so much that this whiny, unbearably annoying girl (Noel)  who looks so much like her is seen as a taint on his memory of the original, true Saya.

I don't even hate Noel, despite my way of describing her above, and I can still vaguely understand why Jin would hate her. I mean, imagine having her as your secretary. It must be horrible. I don't condone his treatment of her, but I can see why he would act that way. It's a really human, really realistic hatred, really. Jin is probably one of the most well-written characters in BlazBlue, with the exception of any moment he spends that pertains to Ragna. But then again, almost everyone's characters turns to shit whenever Ragna's around, as cold a comfort as that is.

This is why Noel and Jin's new chemistry is one of the greatest additions of Chronophantasma. You can see Jin start to accept Noel in a Tsundere, roundabout manner that is both hilarious and endearing to watch. What's better is that instead of an amnesia, a sudden surge of kindness, or any of those fan fiction tropes, you can clearly see the whole "Sigh, this sucks, but you're Tsubaki's friend so...argh..." mentality going on.
