I think we can all learn to love belle just as much if we just give her a chance to sink in
Which is exactly the issue.
"This character might get better" != "This is a good character"
can anyone here give me a reason for why this character is actually good as opposed to how it might get better in the future
if you analyze any character with the prerequisites that its not a good character, of course you'll dislike it at first, even if the character is just fine.
I think that's whats happening here because all of you guys' arguments as to why belle is a poorly designed character seem to stem from the same general thought that similar looking characters coexisting in a work is a bad or unnatural thing.
If it were two human characters who were only differentiated by hair and color you'd be fine with it.
I know that for a fact, viper and angie. you dumby otakus
