@LukeAlmighty Gaby's Mary Sue tendencies was the biggest issue for me - she had characters being really emotionally invested in protecting her despite objectively having every reason to hate her. Garbage.jpg
@LukeAlmighty Honestly, the anime made her way more sympathetic than the manga, by framing her shameless war crime as a selfless act done to save Eldian lives, rather than a rash stunt carried out to gain glory.
