| So I wanted to know what you guys think ? For me it's not like I hate her character but the way mangaka changed his approach towards the characters is what pisses me off, look at the first 2 arcs when there was a lot of focus on all the 3 characters but now that's totally not the case. Its true that norman is out of picture for now but what about ray? hopefully we get more pages on ray and norman whenever he appears again. |

| I felt like it's been a bit repetitive since they got out. I agree that Norman and Ray have not been getting enough attention recently. |

| She was a distant third for me behind Norman and Ray, but she's actually become my favorite character in the series. |
| i don't get why you hate her. i find her optimism a breath of fresh air compared by the thousands and thousands of edgy teenage protagonist in anime and manga nowdays. and the edge lord of the first month of the year goes to you. DA_Rialdo said: Nah, you're not alone. I love both Norman and Ray, but it's a no for Emma. I've been hating her since the beginning of the series with her irrational though about "saving the whole kids." Each arc, she grew more and more annoying with her naivety and "I want to save everyone" trope. I just hope that one day she face a mental breakdown (somekind of seeing her entire family slaughtered by demons) that would lead to changes of her view toward the world and become a dark anime protagonist i love how you respond with i hate x trope with the edgiest and most overused tropes possible. kill protagonist family trope metal break down trope break the cutie trope these have existed since forever have some self awareness when you criticize a piece of literature for certain tropes only to responded with equally overused tropes. |

| "among monsters and humans, there are only two types. Those who undergo suffering and spread it to others. And those who undergo suffering and avoid giving it to others." -Alice “Beauty is no quality in things themselves: It exists merely in the mind which contemplates them; and each mind perceives a different beauty.” David Hume “Evil is created when someone gives up on someone else. It appears when everyone gives up on someone as a lost cause and removes their path to salvation. Once they are cut off from everyone else, they become evil.” -Othinus  |
| As far as I'm concerned she is one of the main reasons why the manga is so good, yeah she is one of the more optimistic and reckless characters but I feel that's needed to survive in a world like the one there in. Unlike most reckless protags, she can reason, come up with realistic solutions, and acts as a beacon of hope to all of her friends in a believable manner. TLDR; Your crazy, she's a great character |
| If not for Emma, Norman would have been fine leaving with just three of them alone. Ray would have actually killed himself towards the end of the first arc. Emma was always the driving point. From the very start I saw Emma as the MAIN MAIN character of the story and as it progressed, it became more relevant, especially during the amusement-park chapter when Ray was just left behind the curtain. I was pretty surprised to see her at the bottom of the trio, considering Ray, and especially Norman (since he disappears after the first arc) had more fav's despite them contributing much less to the story than Emma. Norman and Ray may be smarter and more mature, but without Emma they would have failed. Emma's stubbornness is what makes her special. |
Sephyros said: Too nice = too annoying just like Hiyori from Noragami. Apparently to the anime community, nice girls = hateable, horrible characters Are y'all secretly closet Hachimans??? |
| I do love and appreciate her optimism. However, she is in sore need of development beyond just her positive exterior and desire to save everyone. I'd love to see her grow from her naivete, or be confronted by the fact that not everyone can be saved. As of now, she feels a bit stagnant, particularly after so many chapters of major events. |

| I think I agree with almost all of the other comments here. It's like she's never changed a lot from the beginning, but I really feel like the latest chapters (especially chs. 121 and 122). |

| Emma is still my favourite character, but I honestly feel she is a bit naive, to a point where she lets her emotions control her. She's basically like Eren from the first few arcs of SnK. I feel like it definitely is kind of foolish to think that some kind of peace can be achieved between the two species. The demons are the humans' natural predator and killer and have been killing her fellow children for generations. They essentially at war to determine which species will survive. I just do not think a peaceful option is viable in this scenario. That being said I do admire her passion, which is what makes her my favourite character to begin with. I just hope the mangaka does her arc justice and doesn't just paint her as a foolish and naive character until the end. |

| I find her annoying but not to hate level. I can understand her naivety is to balance out with Ray cynicalism but She is too nice and get a little bit annoying. I never like characters who are too nice In general because they become stupid,Fool and too soft. I am fine with her but she does annoy me. I prefer Ray way more who is more realistic but can also bordeline cynicalism to extreme. She wanting coexist between Demon and Humans despite current circumatances.It will piss me off If she Decide to stop exterminate of Demons If she has no end solution to save Humans. The things is she need to develop more and grow up that naivety and idealism will not save anyone it will just get the people she care about kill. Norman is pretty balance of the both. |

| No i don't I like Emma actually. Some of the things she does i find annoying, but i understand her desire. What i find annoying mainly is her Opinion on the Demons in the latest Chapters, but i can understand it, its just naive, but tbh if you have read Liars Game u know what real naivity looks like and since then naivity has not really bothered me all that much xD |
TubeCow said: She transcends the realm of annoying and enters the kingdom of fiery hatred. This is extremely personal for me, as Ray is essentially a carbon copy of me, and therefore she is the personification of everything I look down upon. I find her irrational sense of equality and kinship absolutely sickening and disgusting. The inferior are meant to die. It's natural selection and how we evolved. This whole "I want to escape with everyone to a society that wishes to devour us and then within this society form a new society where everyone is equal and we all live happily ever after" schtick is really urking me, and I genuinely hope she gets what's coming to her and dies a gruesome death to disillusion us from the perfect world she and everyone else is living in. Every episode is "oh, you can't call him weak even though he is weak and inferior" and "I WANT TO ESCAPE WITH EVERYONE BWAAAAA, THERE IS GOOD IN EVERYONE, WE ARE FAMILY, LET'S HOLD HANDS AND LOVE EACH OTHER". Like honest to god, get a reality check you asinine cunt. tl;dr In my oh so humble and completely correct opinion, I believe Emma is a degenerate who poisons society by spreading her lies about love and friendship, and I sincerely pray for her to die the most gruesome death possible. So yes, I do find her annoying. Well, thanks for the disgusting comment. You could keep your oh-so-correct opinion to yourself, no thanks. Ray doesn't agree with you on the hatred anyway. I personally like her. Yeah, she's too idealistic and a little naive n even borderline annoying at times but she has made stuff work for the most part so far so I am going to keep rooting for her. |
| I like Emma and her idealism provides part of the story's conflict. We'll see if Emma holds on to the idea of not wiping out the demons, she's being practical. If the promise is ruined there might not be a way out of the demon world. Also most edgy r/iamverybadass anime/manga take forever to move past their angst so... Shrug? Sometimes the angst goes somewhere, other times it doesn't and I'm just done with the series. I often prefer idealistic characters. |
| I think she's a cute girl. Yes, in a pedophile way ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) But seriously, i do think Emma is annoying in this case. She's very nice and idealistic. It's wise to consider bringing everyone away but it's nice to consider other possibilities. Bringing everyone is a pain, then she doesn't want to sacrifice anyone anymore making it even harder. That's why i think she is annoying but in the time is the cute part of her. <3 |
| I don't find her annoying. She's not my favourite character, but I believe this story needs someone like her to counterbalance others. |

Aliesgrise said: Umm because that's exactly what the author is trying to tell us.Agreed why would you even want equality for those treats you like a cattle? Emma need direct traumatizing event from demon to straighten her ass up. |

| I started getting annoyed by her around chapter 127 in the manga. Bright anime characters really pissed me off. |
 |
| I guess I'm like Mr. Yuugo in this case. She annoys me because her attitude is something I wish I have, but just like the majority of us who thinks rationally and realistically her attitude seems a bit dislikable and enviable. Just how convenient it is if we have the kind of blueprint attitude with us right? |
| She is the reason I dropped the manga |
Auvrish said: BitterBones said: Thanks for your disgusting opinion that nobody wanted.Now go stand in front of a mirror and masturbate while looking at your positive optimistic faceWell, thanks for the disgusting comment. You could keep your oh-so-correct opinion to yourself, no thanks. Ray doesn't agree with you on the hatred anyway. I personally like her. Yeah, she's too idealistic and a little naive n even borderline annoying at times but she has made stuff work for the most part so far so I am going to keep rooting for her. Are you a kid. The reason I said its disgusting is because they claimed Ray sees Emma like they do which is a really distorted take on his character. I doubt Ray would withstand it if someone insulted her so horribly and claimed Ray thinks so too. They can hate Emma all they want but insulting her and so horribly at that is just a no. And just because you can't take my opinion as you are so immature doesn't mean everyone can't. Be careful with your wording next time. |
| this whole manga has gotten annoying. I can't wrap my head around why it annoys me so much but the whole way the story started out and the issues they had to deal with compared to what is going on now its like the story has changed so much its easy to start disliking it because it basically tries to be everything it went from cat and mouse chase and mindgames to some weird world building with constant manslaughter and a weird-ass battle shounen syndrome and tactical gunfights to half-assed morals about why we shouldnt kill what wants to kill us and resolve this differently when you really dont have a choice and then some weird sci-fi has been thrown into the mix that made this even more all over the place and we had some weird religious and cult shit man, this manga never stops being something else |
