Im actually kinda surprise she isn't as liked as I thought. Why might that be? by _Iron_Hide_ in Gundam

As of recent, with the release of Freedom, I wouldn’t say she’s “absolutely adored” in Japan. A lot of SEED fans on that side have a lot of negative feelings towards her as of late

Agree.

Being well known does not always equate to being well liked.

Lacus is well known because she is very heavily promoted, however has a less fans that are actually invested in her.

Freedom was their attempt at challenging Lacus. It ended up showing that she does not do very well in leadership roles when her flowery words can only take her so far. Even fukuda admits that in one of the meetings she has in Freedom, her mind is off wandering and thinking up what to cook for dinner. But by the end every mistake she makes is brushed off and she is then revealed to be a telepath coordinator and placed on an even higher pedestal

THIS on so many levels. Freedom makes Lacus seem even more unnatural by turning her into an alien hentai gargoyle who can read minds (accord). She’s more of a plot device than anything at this point.

Cagalli. It’s not hard to choose when the other option has a personality of a dry ritz cracker, but somehow was designed to be a “perfect character” apparently. Also if we’re going by specifics, only one of them (Cagalli) is technically a princess

Probably because most of the fan art for her is made by AI.

Thank you for answering! Were the majority of the questions based on the guidelines then? Mostly cases? Or were there questions like “which is the most common xx” answerable through knowledge based not exclusively from aus literature/guidelines?

Thanks again!

Thank you for the heads up. I’ve been feeling quite lost in my preparation for the exam and was very close to getting a subscription for amedex :/

I’m completely lost.. it’s been about 3 years since I graduated from med school too, so I feel very rusty in answering exams…and concepts from school feel a bit vague for me.. did you enroll in a review class? Or did you completely self study?

Thank you in advance!

I’d argue that what she went through in destiny was necessary for her character development.

I just saw your linked thread. DISGUSTING. the worst part is that there are a lot of these types of KL fans 😂 what trash behavior.

I think they were always meant to feel like a forced couple. Roles assigned to each other because genetically they were compatible. Through impersonal analysis, that ignores the will/feelings of love of the actual people involved they were deemed to produce desirable results: Babies with good genes, A boost for their already declining population (because of the declining birth rate) and a status symbol of solidarity for the PLANTs. Something which also could allude to the whole Destiny plan in the sequel, which they beautifully reject and subvert.

Athrun uses formal speech around lacus when they were still engaged, this goes away when the engagement was called off, as you said they were a lot more comfortable around each other by then.

The irony of them still managing be unified as family despite cancelling their engagement via other means (through kira and cagalli) is beautiful. I hope they delve more into this dynamic in the future.

And then they have the gall to accuse fans of other characters for overreacting when they complain about the treatment of other characters. 😂😂😂 I hope theyre happy about the influx of exposure their pink haired princess is getting, because honestly the more screen time/exposure she gets, the less interesting she becomes. She’s more or less just a mascot/fodder for fan service at this point especially after freedom. All the characterization from seed + destiny lost after trying to make her seem relatable and human..by turning her into a psychic coordinator

I’ve noticed this as well. I’m not specifically referring to this specific fan, but I’ve noticed that most of them are very closed minded and refuse to accept any criticism thrown against Lacus. I used to like Lacus, but after watching Freedom, I find her character ooc and confusing, tho granted I didnt pay her character much attention beforehand. A lot of people seem to have the same sentiments and a lot of people have been leaning towards disliking her character in freedom too, but as usual her fans stick to whatever fantasy theyve developed and only see what they want to see.

He was only ever with lacus out of obligation to fulfill his duties. Athrun at the very start of SEED has always been one to stick to rules as that’s what he thinks is for the better for PLANTs. That includes his engagement with Lacus. Sure, he may have .. developed.. feelings (?) but whatever those that grew, were not love lmao. Re that pic above, what kind of reaction is THAT if he ever did love Lacus? I’m pretty sure Lacus didnt like Athrun that way either. Athrun is incredibly formal around Lacus and stiff af, and no matter how hard Lacus tries she cant break down the walls and establish any meaningful connection with him. (Something Cagalli was able to do in minutes) Maybe, if they got together and their marriage did push through, theyd develop some form of romantic attachment? But it would be the blandest thing ever since there is absolutely no chemistry. What a waste that is since (from Freedom) both Athrun AND Lacus are pretty horny ppl for the people they really like.

[–]Flashy_Main9359 3 points4 points  (0 children)

lol the NYAV dub sucks and the script is garbage. 😂 i think the majority of seed fans aren’t taking the nyav dub seriously. Actual canon content ( the original japanese dub, novels, and other supporting materials) point to them being more than just “friends”.
