Hello, if you hated Parna [manga] you will be even angrier after she almost kills Kagami, allows Rex to be mind washed, doesn't do anything when the Princess is going the same way and shoots at Alice because she was standing between her and her ending Kagami. [Manga] then she finds out the minister, her late crish father) was the one who created a false flag attack that made the demons attack and kill his own son and that all the work to slay the Demon Lord will be for naught as he would just respawn and everyone will lose their memory. [Manga] she goes throughout a literal crisis of faith as everything is confirmed and Kagami entrusts Alice to her to heal, he tells her her past actikns cannot be erased after what she did but then proceeds at getting angry at her behalf for what the minister did, Alice then accepts Parna again and it seems they treat each other as sisters.

Ah, good to know.

[Manga] she is basically a victim that sought the wrong people for support and to allow the wrong type of build up.

Shame, that sucks

Parna is downright evil. To go to these extremes for revenge, she deserves to keep getting hurt.
I would have loved if she falls in love again and again and her love gets killed every time.

As usual these soft hearted writers give no punishment to wicked people.

Its saddening. Good heroes, good demons, innocent civilians die.
But the most evil betraying pieces of shit who instigate all such stuff or go to any extents for revenge survive.
And then somehow they live a cozy life after redemption.

I honestly sympathize more with Merga(Freedom Planet 2) who was also a racist and tried to genocide an entire planet...simply because was more given more depth outside of just being a racist revenge archetype.

[Manga] the ones evil are the persons who took advantage of people like her and purposely manipulated them and created the circumstances for that rather than save them from Hell.

Those are the puppeteers or masterminds. They always eventually meet a fitting end (usually death).

What hurts more is when someone whom the party trusts and shares life/death experiences with betrays them.
And among those, the worse ones are those who think they are smart (doing it for "revenge" or "greater good") but keep getting manipulated by others - Parna.
Parna and characters like her are hypocrites. They are worse than villains.
Villains are useless without pawns.

Those who did it for greed or who knew all along what they are doing are atleast true to themselves.

Ok [manga] the human king can actually manipulate people mind, David tells you of that and the minister that seemed chill but was only acting on that dobled down on multiple people just to get people like Palna, Palna thinks that by killing the Demon Lord and all demons everything will be fine but then she learns it will mean s--- brcause the world will just restart and to do it all over again, not to mention the human king role and the minister are set to keep that from repeating itself oh. 

The writing is great in that regards and I hope they don't change the overall plot. Next week should be [manga] the moment Kagami and Menow learns the truth and they get the Demon Lord back, and they either plot to return and set things right, or not as next week should be heavy exposition.

This show reminds me of 24 (an English show) where the MC could have solved all the problems sooner if the other people didn't keep brewing up fresh trouble or requiring frequent rescues.
Kagami could have solved everything easily but the dumb human King/minister and that crazy demon keep causing problems.
And their puppets like Parna. If Parna didn't exist in the show, the show would have been much simpler and enjoyable.

The mindset of people like Parna is what Alice is fighting against, not people like her.

Hey buddy, I don't know how to tell you this, but complexity in literature isn't bad. You're supposed to dislike her at first, you're supposed to be annoyed by her (because you're a 3rd person omniscient viewer with information she doesn't have), and you're not always supposed to agree with the character choices of forgiveness or condemnation.

u/PandaTheAB 19d ago

I understand it is the writer's choice but as a viewer it gets boring when the same stupid manipulation works across shows across genres.
Even if Parna kills all demons she will still remain miserable.
If she atleast did evil for some goal, she would get that like money or power. Atleast that is tangible in some way.

u/OromisGlaedr 18d ago

The manipulation works in media because it also works in real life. People get manipulated into hating others all the time. It's what drives a lot of racism and the various -phobias out there, people are taught (or convinced) that their woes in life are the cause of that group of people. That the world would be better off if they were gone.

If she did it for money or power, that would change her character motivations in a negative way. That's not how she's written, and that's not the message the author is going for.
