| Her haters make me sad. :( Yeah, she has flaws but if a character didn't have flaws, she would be boring....and a Sue. I think Aria's strengths really outweigh her flaws. So here are my reasons for loving this pint-sized pink girl: *She's cute. MY GOD, IS SHE CUTE. Her hair is cute. Her size is cute. Her voice is cute. Her fangs are cute. Her dere-dere moments are REALLY cute. She is just a bundle of cuteness you want to cuddle. X) *She's BADASS. Two guns. Two swords. An amazing fighter despite being so tiny. There's really no more to be said...except GIRL POWER FTW. *She's SWEET. Her haters always overlook her best moments. A huge one was when she went to get Kinji medicine that he said was REALLY far away and difficult to find. That didn't stop her. She went and bought it and stroked his forehead while he was asleep. D'aw? She also encourages Kinji when he's down; she's pretty much the only reason he was able to land that plane, she gave one of her cat mascots to him, she TOOK A BULLET for him, it's obvious she'd die for him. Selfish girl? I don't think so! *She's a Stepford Smiler. If you don't know what this means, it's basically a person who hides their pain on the inside by smiling and pretending that everything is fine. I really admire characters like this. They show generosity in how they don't want to burden other with their problems. Aria let Kinji go after he fulfilled the mission even though it really hurt her to the point of tears but she had no intention of letting him see that and that was very strong and considerate of her. *She LOVES HER MOMMY. There are not enough mother-daughter bonds in anime (or media in general) and my heart just broke when I learned what Aria's goal was. Such a noble motive, don't you think? I was like ".....for her MOM!? That was all for her MOM!? WAH. ;_;" *She's a tsundere. Um........tsunderes are awesome? XD I love how they try to act cold and fail so bad at it. That emotional vulnerability is too adorable! I don't think her tsun side is too extreme, as it's mostly played for lols anyway.....and that's a lot more than what I can say about OTHER tsundere girls.....>_> *She's a loli. Lolis are also awesome....because I can relate to them......>_> It sucks getting treated like a child when you're not one. No wonder she's aggressive! *She has pink twin tails. >:3 *She's naive to romance and all that relates to it. That whole kissing=pregnant thing had me LOLING XD So cute! *She's a genius child prodigy and a descendant of Sherlock-F*cking-Holmes. That is just so cool! |
| Probably the primary reasons Hidan no Aria attracts haters are: 1. Aria's a loli tsundere who has comedic violent antics with the male lead, an archetype that has been very common these days. An example of "It's common now, it sucks" mentality. 2.She's voiced by Rie Kugimiya again. Again, same kind of mentality. Especially from those who don't like her in the first place. 3.The other vocal section of hatedom probably comes from those who "stand by the light novels", lambasting every difference and every fanservice in the show, despite this (in my opinion), has very light fanservice compared to Zero no Tsukaima, another Kugimiya flick, and still follows the general plot so far, unlike ZnT anime, which has created its own continuity. In general, I like Aria like the other tsundere wonders, and appreciate voice actress Kugimiya for portraying them so well. I can't picture them being voiced by anyone else. Aria may not be so different from the other wonders, but she's still a character of her own, and her cuteness really is something. I love the feline motifs associated with her. She can make any sympathetic male want to hug her during her most emotionally vulnerable moments. And she embodies one of my favorite tropes in fiction: dual weapons, just like Shana, who's just like my ideal image of a flame warrior. The last thing I like about her is her capable yet naive image, which makes her awesome, lovable and funny at the same time. |
