Princess Asseylum is useless. Why can't she order someone to build her a Kataphrakt that deactivate other's kataphrakt aldnoah drive? if she wants peace, she must fight to attain peace. Instead, she just say both sides must ceasefire. She does not have enough force to enforce the ceasefire.

Asseylum is not useless. She is simply in the same position Slaine found himself at the start of season 1 when he was aware of her survival, i.e. she is out of her depth and doing whatever she can to do the right thing.

I have no doubt eventually she'll bitch out Slaine and he'll bend the knee like always.

Hey look we agree on something, well Idk about the last part, I have a feeling Slaine and Inaho are going to end up killing eachother before they get to that.

but if Asseylum wants peace, she must do something. Not just telling people to stop fighting. I understand that her intention is good, and that she is trying her best to end the war. but she have to do more

Give her a break, she just woke up from a coma that lasted nearly two years. It's a wonder she can even stand, what with the muscle atrophy.

I think that's the whole point of her being in a Coma and then being a prize of war.

Of course she's not useful.

Awful leader, she just run Vers right into a civil conflict.She never bothered to know that her Counts are not on good political terms.
Yet she commands them as if they should do what she says.

I don't think Asseylum is good at ruling, understanding situations and her people, or even necessarily making the correct choices, but I wouldn't yet call her useless. She does stuff, and it has effects.

Lol, her deactivating all the Aldnoah drives isn't going to create peace.

Not even remotely close, and very likely the exact opposite.

I think she's quite useful, she's the character who gave me what I always wanted, Slaine getting owned after he messed with Inaho. Slaine punked. Slaine mad. Slaine watching his girl marrying another man, ultimate ether. The only way she gets more useful is if she shots Slaine herself.

I think that enough hate has been directed at Asseylum, but it's safe to say that unless you're very into her type or are a dead-set protector of all female characters, she is uninteresting and not fit for the role she is supposed to fill. I don't even say underdevelopped, because you can't develop a one-note character. And by role, I mean that all the guys admire her supposedly for her great inner qualities, but what are those qualities? I don't see point in admiring convictions of a naive character. And her naivetee is dangerous for a lot of people because of her position. All in all I and many others, as it seems, can't see her as an ideal worth to die for. Therefore she is irritating.

For me she is also boring visually. She always goes around in the same white dress. it's seriously annoying. With the wrong footing and the surprised face she always makes I find her design excessively saccharine.

And her progression is one of the worst in the series famous for bad progressions. She has been out for two years and the majority of the second season, and it is not remedied well at all. Several episodes were spent on amnesia, which has long been conseidered bane of good writing.
And in the first season she died three times, which is two times too many.

As a result she is kind of a black hole, that eats at the script through the love geometrical figures.

Slaine messed with Inaho?? When? Slaine only encountered Inaho once in ep7 and there was no conflict other than a slight misunderstanding, and again in ep 12 Slaine shot Inaho.
Slaine doesnt even know the guy much less mess with him.

Shooting him to me counts as messing with him, he fucked with the superior man and needs to get what's coming to him.

^This.

Aseylum getting shit done and getting Slaine's sandcastle to fall WITH A ONE FUCKIGN SENTENCE cements her as my fav chracter it his.

I already felt a lot for her before when Slaine RUINED HER LIFE so I still hope she gets a happy ending. She deserves it.

She got Nothing done, Asseylum might look high an mighty but she is NOT Earth's government.So even if she wants to make peace with Earth, The UFE can decide whether to accept it or tell her to FUCK OFF.
Oh yes blame Slaine for everything after it is explained her own Counts wanted the war and supported Slaine who allowed them to expand their conquest.Not even Slaine but her own Grandfather will not forgive Terrans for reason unknown.
So does Asseylum get a happy ending LOL NOPE she just became Klankain puppet.

NVM. She saved Slaine, I take back giving her any credit. Though to be honest, I don't get how this ended his despair either but w.e still mad Inaho didn't own him more. And wtf, how dare they make Slaine look like the legendary Magneto.

She is basically Cagalli in both Gundam Seed and Destiny.

Born into power, loves peace but all talk and no action. She'd get manipulated by whoever she's accompanied by.
