Esdeath was the most popular character by an order of magnitude when the series had a fanbase and this is clearly part of what went wrong

please clarify that they gave us run torturing a pedophile clown specifically. he needs all the credit he can muster bc the anime stripped him of anything resembling a personality, or presence
