Don't get me wrong. I love Misha. But she is of a particular flavor, and a strong one at that. And strong flavors can be polarizing.

Is it a flavor few people dislike, like chocolate?

Seriously though, this is the first I hear of Misha being polarizing. But I don't suppose everyone in her class appreciates her barging into the classroom with a "Wahahaha!~" every morning.

Feel free to explain.

It's Japan. Her personality could be scene as extremely grating and irritating.
There's also the Generic Cuteness of anime/visual novels at work too.

She's fat, obnoxious and artificial.

Ah, that does explain a lot. Much appreciate the input!

As with all people, some will find a particular person absolutely horrid while others will find him/her fabulous. To each their own!

I'll take a fat-bottomed girl over a blue-eyed floozy.

I don't doubt that's how you feel, but those are really strange words about Shizune's best friend coming from someone who has that avatar, a Shizune Hakamichi banner, and has written Shizune fanfiction.

Hypothesis: someone in love with Shizune might have a need to say that Misha's not such a good option…

Maybe he is kidding ?

Did I say something wrong? I'm not sure why either of you are bothered by an innocent observation, whether metalangel was kidding or not.

For my part, I was trying as hard as I could to not write a post that sounded like "how dare you hate Misha, you're a Shizune fan", because as I said, I don't doubt that he could sincerely dislike Misha despite that. But now I think I shouldn't have said anything at all.

Neither of us is bothered, I'd think. Speaking for myself, I'm a bit of a deadpan sub-troll with a quirky sense of humour. Sorry if you thought I sounded offended! I wasn't at all.

It was the whole "hypothesis" bit that seemed a little on the snarky side, but I apologize for taking it the wrong way.

I'm pretty sure he is kidding.

Exactly that (among other things). A lot of players even feel put off by her, at least at first, for the same reason. Hisao himself is, too.

Or anywhere, really.

Well why don't you tell us how you really feel, metalangel?

I was gonna say, yeah…

This makes an uncomfortable amount of sense.

Sweat it not. We're all a bunch of ramstoogeous knuckleheads around here.

I meant what I said, I'm not that fond of her. I think that, much as in the real world, I tolerated her.
