y'all, i'm curious: in bandori did you have a character that you didn't really like that ended up becoming more of a favorite for any reason?

for me, i'd say my biggest example of this was Tsugumi. i thought she was boring, and like, y'know it's kinda ironic how i thought it was because compared to everyone in Afterglow, she was the blandest, which i'm pretty sure was part of the point of her character.

the point being that even if compared to everyone else she seemed less "interesting," she's still a hard worker, a good friend, and an important member of Afterglow. at first I ignored her for the most part but after she was one of my first 3*s on JP's server, i got a bit more interested in her and tbh while she's not a big fave, I appreciate her a lot more.

another example would probably be Sayo, who became one of my favorites in Roselia after i read their band story and got a better understanding of her as a character--i don't want this post to be too long, but now i also Stan Sayo along with Lisa instead of just seeing her as "green Yukina"
