The "angsty badass female warrior who's also a tragic broken flower who feels her entire existence as a warrior is a horrible violation of her femininity"

I think it's fine to have characters who don't like or despise fighting despite being good at it, but I've never liked this specific variation, especially when their arcs always seem to conclude with them being "saved" (or killed) after being humbled by a dude

Ma'am, this is a Wendy's

It probably doesn't help that this game has a famously bad translation. The FFVII translation is a shining paragon of brilliance in comparison

I don't know if that's a "bad translation", or an "Evangelion-monologue-writing"problem.

All I know is it's pretty bad
