Is it cause of her character model, or sadistic/tsundere, dominant personality or something else? Character model wise, i say Chealsea, Akame, Leone would be better looking. For personality, I like submissive girls more, so idk if that's the case. The question for you guys is, why do you think she's so charismatic, if she is? |

Well... To be honest, if she didn't have any romantic interest for the main character, then I don't think I would like her that much.If she was sadistic all the time, without showing a cute side of her, I probably wouldn't really have liked her, but since I've seen the cute side of her, I like her. :3 It also gives her character more depth, and it also shows that she can care for others not just the main character but her comrades, for example when she gave a family member money for the lost of Bols. If she was all evil I wouldn't like her that much, because she would be to me a one dimensional character. |

I like Main, Akame and Chelsea way way more than Esdesu (starting to dislike her as of late ), so I don't really get it either how she ended up being the most popular character of the show. |

Everyone has their own beauty standards. IMO I think she is very attractive - Long legs, a curvy body like a race car supermodel, exotic eyes with an icey cold stare and a seductively drawn mouth. She has an elegant and feminine side to her in contrast with her brutal nature. This Yin and yang creates the perfect push and pull to yank on a guy's collar. Unless she really has any human emotions within her though, I don't think I could move past infatuation with her. I disagree with people who think she has a soft side for her subordinates. She has stated that if you treat them nicely, they will fight harder for you in battle. Sounds something like a sociopath would say about his "tools." Look at Senryuu. She's easily manipulable and everyone took advantage of that. I doubt she (Esdese) mourned for her death. Akame may not have the sex appeal to Esdese's level to me, but her love for her comrades are unmistakably genuine. She's someone I can empathize with as a human. In the long run, I think Akame is someone who I will be loving more and consistently. |

It is not that Esdeath is the main reason I read this, but she is indeed one of many great reasons I read this, and IMO one of the most interessing cute yet brutal characters in the story. |

I was neutral about her up to this point, but I hate her after this chapter. Because of her, Rabac is dying and Main might also die. ( She is gonna be responsible for my Top 2 characters, I really hope she dies gruesomely by Tatsumi's hands ) |

Because she is awesome ;) She is a Psychopath, but she does care for the people close to her. Also she can be extremely cute. |

It's a shame the author is unlikely to have Tatsumi develop feelings for her, because the starcrossed lovers thing is my favorite. Instead I am afraid she is going to go hardcore yandere and that would be wasted potential. I am still going to be team Esdeath either way |

I like Esdese because 1. She is fucking hawt 2. I lover her personality, whereas she's battle hungry/blood thirsty and ruthless, but at the same time she has a nicer/caring side to her as well 3. Yandere's....I love them from the bottom of my heart lol 4. She's the ultimate female badass 5. She is just so damn OP xDD ( I like most OP characters in everything I watch/read) |

Most properly functioning people. Or at least anyone with a functioning moral compass and a shred of integrity. She's a sociopath. If a person can turn a blind eye to it all because she is attractive then that speaks volumes of someone's priorities and shortcomings. |

She just happened to be in the right place at the wrong time for Rabak. Not only that but the one to blame is Tatsumi, he failed to confirm that Suzuka was dead because he wanted to rush to Mein. If it wasn't for that they wouldn't have I.D. Rabac and Tatsumi. Mein dying at Esdese's hands is once again Tatsumi's fault because he didn't keep his mouth shut and just pretend to get along with Esdese in the latest chapter. OT: I like Esdese for a variety of reasons. One of the biggest reasons is the fact that they didn't give her some dark animu past to explain why she is such a sadist. She just is! Drinking that Teigu didn't make her more perverse, in fact the Teigu accepted her already existing personality. She tamed it, not the other way around. She's a character that no matter what she does I can't bring myself to hate. She's just fun, she reminds me of a more sadistic version of Revy. |

She just happened to be in the right place at the wrong time for Rabak. Doesn't change the fact that she is the one who kicked them back when they had escaped. In other words, hadn't she done that, Rabac would be alive and with both ... you know. She IS responsible for which side she's fighting for. |

Saving an ally has higher priority than finishing off an enemy. Although he should've returned there after saving her to double check. Gotta mention that he did think she is dead. As for Esdesu, I can't not hate someone with that personality. |

I think it has to do with the way she's presented. If she was shown to be a loving commander first and then revealed to be a sadistic torturing bitch then she would be hated like all the other two faced imperial officials. But since she was shown to be a complete sadist first, and then revealed to be more sympathetic, people get to attached to her in a weird Stockholm syndrome way. |

I loath her because she only act on whims... her moral sense is twisted to a core level and she basically can't differentiate between right and wrong. Even if she's good to her subordinate she's still an evil person (without a good reason) beyond any hope of redemption. In the other hand wave is the best character in this manga for me. I'd really like to see his reaction when he knows the truth about the empire he serves. |

It would be literally impossible not to recognize the "truth" about the empire if he is in a position like that, save serious denial. There have been several scenes where he sort of questions what he is doing, but he writes it off and does it anyway. I like Wave, I just don't think he should be any kind of moral compass for this show because his denial is just as bad as anything. |

Can't argue with you on the denial part, I always thought he was acting "oblivious"... Still he's a soldier following his superiors orders he didn't commit evil acts ( he's not even a NR target). If he come into contact with let's say... najenda I'm sure she can put him into the right path. |

I kind of felt like Wave and Tatsumi would have some kind of secret bond since they are so similar, but I doubt Wave is going to be able to forgive Night Raid after Kurome finally kicks it. I think Wave is more likely to turn evil (or a serious rival for Tatsumi) than convert to Night Raid, though, just a feeling. |
