When I first played Zestiria, she was my favorite character. I even liked the way her story played out, in that she remained dedicated despite all the crap that got thrown her way.
She was this force of optimism in the face of adversity, and it was a Big Freaking Deal when she finally broke down in front of Sorey. I loved her development, the strength, her determination despite nothing behind handed to her.
Not only did she take the spotlight from literally every other character... (for crying out loud, the rest of the crew had better characterization in the NEXT EPISODE SKITS than they did in the entire series)...
Romantic ships - I think she and Sergei would have been interesting together. And for whatever reason, I loved the vibe she had with Clemm, the knight who shows up in the very first episode of ToZX.
Sorry to anyone who likes the ship, but it's destined to end horribly unless you go with the Great Value version of the characters who appear in the anime.
Fandom and my OCs are fair game.
