Is Ryuko a well written character?

There were points where she went too far into teenage edge, but overall she was a good character. She was confident, but was also able to just cowardly flee a fight if her opponent was too strong. She was very much like a delinquent at the beginning, but could also be very sweet and kind as the series went on. You knew that under her edgy shell there was a normal girl wanting to be loved.

You don't watch Kill la Kill for good writing, you watching it for over the top action and lewd

I was in it for the mother/daughter relationships and the clothes/fascism themes.

Action was OK. Lewd was too in my face to be enjoyable unless it was Nonon.

My wife is so well written and CUTE!

No anime is well written anon

Next question?

She's okay. I don't get why people say she an irate edgy character.

If anything, she's more of a hardass than edgy.

Evangelion was.

She's a garbage character, no she wasn't written well.
Next question.

Honestly this show would've been better if they stuck with the original idea of the level up clothing.

Shit went full retard once Nui Harime came into the scene.

>>155728367
this
hence ryuuko is a well written character

>>155727391
Really teeters off in edginess when she gets the not-Senketsu clothing

She was until they started rewriting the plot and finishing episodes literally minutes before airtime.

>>155727391
Her arc was great up until it culminated at episode 14.
She had a "second arc" after that, but after the first it was a huge step back. Why revert your character just to stretch her out over the episodes? I did not like that path.

As Gainax's tradition.

She didn't revert. Her "second arc" was about another issue entirely.

First-half Ryuko was a unique type of protagonist in that she showed signs of being a villain more (ex: retreating against Satsuki, with your typical "DON'T YOU FORGET THIS" saying) while still believing she is right to oppse the school. She also suffered both meaningful victories and defeats (ex: 1st and 2nd fights against Sanageyama) but she was determined to get up and continue rebelling, which is likable. However, after her berserk moment from fighting Nui, she has lost a considerable amount of charm and logic as things start turning right for her but she still wants to be the opposition to something in order to feel meaningful. I really think the second half's lack of care for its own writing really hindered Ryuko's character as someone who is desperate to find meaning in her life, because that "meaning" ends up being all over the place (ex: wanting to be a bride).

>things start turning right for her but she still wants to be the opposition to something in order to feel meaningful
That wasn't really the case. After she let revenge go and found another motivation she couldn't care less about fighting anymore, she even said so in episode 17. It was Satsuki (and then Ragyo) that kept manipulating her into going against her, using Senketsu, Mako and her family as bait.

>>155727391
For the genre, absolutely

Better question - was PIC RELATED a well-written character?

Was she cute?

>>155733991
Yes for what she was there for, and yes.

>>155728367
This thread seems to be full of people who apparently didn't "get" KLK.

I thought it was damn near perfect.

>>155727391
I liked her.
