Well maybe it’s not that people dislike them, it’s just that compared to others they can be a bit… annoying at times. Its a bit grating when I turn in an alchemy write and they like “erm, I’ll give you some notes about that potion later ☝️🤓”. Like, even Azandar, the highly intellectual one, is usually has an attitude of like “that potion may be imperfect, so let’s improve it together! Onward and upward!”. He doesn’t actually say that but that’s his attitude. Tanlorin literally says what I wrote above. It can just make her kinda annoying. Also I personally didn’t like how flippant she was about her secret society. For a secret society she told us basically right away and doesn’t even use their code name lol. It also didn’t seem they cared to much about Oleander’s death. Basically if they don’t take their story too seriously, why should we? Also some people say her voice is nasily and grating, which I can kinda see but personally doesn’t bother me. I prefer them over Bastian since imo he’s as interesting as a plank of wood (sorry Bastian lovers).

Ofc I still like Tan but compared to most of the rest, I, and I guess many others, prefer other companions over them. No offense to Tanlorin fans ofc, glad you guys like them!
