I really don't get the hate towards Flay.

Imagine if an European girl lost her dad during a Muslim terrorist attack. You wouldn't really blame her for hating Muslims, right? It would be the natural thing to do for a 15 year old teenager.

I always thought she one of the better written and most realistic character in the whole Seed franchise, and her realizing that what she was doing was wrong makes her more likeable
>>
But I don't hate her. She had 10 times more chemistry with Kira on-screen than Lacus ever did.
>>
>>13554475
She acts like an actual human being in an anime with a pink princess. She was going to be hated. Especially since she fucked Kira when Kira and Athrun were shipped together early on. Flay is hated by Fujo, purityfags and people who hate flawed characters
>>
>>13554475
I like her. I don't need a fictional character to be a perfectly good human being for me to like them. The only people that hate her ar memesters and purityfags, as anon said.
>>
I don't. Her relationship with Kira felt way more believable than his "relationship" with Lacus ever did.

Fuck off Fllay

You seem to be confused on a core principle.

A GOOD character doesn't have to be a LIKABLE character. She was a shockingly complex and well motivated person but also a colossal bitch

Sort of like Natarle who got stuck playing bad cop to Murrue's den mother softness and ended up being conflicted by duty and morality.

easily the best characters in the show. Shame they both had to die in order to show how right Jesus and Pink Princess where

I would blame her. It is a childish reaction.

Even if being young were to excuse stupidity, it is an adult's duty to brightslap sense into selfish kids.

Nothing wrong with hating muslims

>>13555027
Except it wasnt just her, it was nearly the whole damn planet that wanted all the coordinators dead. That's how the war was, kill as many as the other side as possible.
>>
>>13554475
People don't hate her because of her attitude toward Coordinators. There's nothing wrong with hating Coordinators.

People hated her because she was a total cunt to everyone around her. Like >>13554595 said, just because a character is realistic or well-written doesn't mean you HAVE to like them.

Going by that analogy, it's like a European girl whose father is killed by muslims, then she finds a muslim boy and rides his cock like a wild stallion if he kills all the other muslims.

Fllay is very much like Ange, but without the subsequent character development and lesbian rape.

Most of my favorite characters are mass murdering assholes, rapists, war criminals, racists or some weird mix of all of them. I have no problem with flawed characters, I just hate 15 year old girls.

The thing is, she's not very pleasant to be around. She's like a psycho ex-girlfriend, and it's hard not to wince a little if you had to imagine Kira's life with her. She was this unpleasant loose end that couldn't be tied up, until Rau did Kira a favor.

I honestly can't remember anyone who liked her, except for that one tripfag who namefags as her. I recall thinking, when watching the show for the first time:

> "Oh God, Kira really got the short end of the stick here, didn't he? He's going to have to do the honorable thing and go back to his bitch of a girlfriend. Sure, the Coordinator girl looks eerily like a barbie doll, but he clearly wants her."
> "...Oh wait, Flay's dead? Shit, Kira - You owe Rau fifty dollars and a handshake."
>>
>>13555027

> childish reaction

Not really. Plenty of adults do the same thing, so it can't be childish by definition. It's undesirable and misplaced but not childish. It's also perfectly understandable, since it creates a negative if very simple association.

Hating people for the wrong reason is always wrong.

You should hate muslims because they are ignorant people following a religion of hate and violence that has oppressed billions of people.

Totally agree, OP.
Also, enormous fucking titties. What is there to rationally dislike?

>a religion of hate and violence that has oppressed billions of people.
Hey! That's not a very nice thing to say about Christianity!
>>
It seemed like by the time they reach the 2nd-half, they have totally no idea what to do with Fllay.
>>
>>13557464
that's because they're idiots. She would've been more believable if she was given Lacus' role of "discerning third party who wants to put a stop to the war" given how she comes to the realization that she was becoming her mask anyway. I'd take her desperately struggling to make the Atlantic Federation stop over Lacus being some hippie who willingly gave the Freedom to an EA officer.

Put your trip on Flay
>>
>>13559835
geez man, I just woke up.
>>
>>13554475
The reason she is hated is because she is a manipulative cunt, not because she hates Coordinators. She fucking knew Kira for a long while, so even if she had an irrational hatred for Coordinators, she still should not have acted like a bitch towards her "friend."
>>
She's generic.

there are people who hate her?

I was okay that Flay died at the time because Cagali was such a better romantic interest for Kira so of course I disliked her from cockblocking Cagalli. Looking back really anything would have been better than what happened, Cagalli being Kira's sister still makes no sense and nothing would please me more than for Lacus to get brutally murdered. I fucking hate Lacus.

No, but if she whored herself out to a Muslim so he'd fight Muslims I would.
>>
>>13562564
Shinn would accidentally grope her and she'd stab him in the dick.
>>
>>13564328
Ow..

>>13561577
I thought this too. Cagalli had more chemistry and when they started to reveal the twin sister shit I just couldn't help shaking my head.
