Stealing this meme from [livejournal.com profile] littledarkvoice

Give me a character (or ten) from any fandom you know I'm in, and I'll let you know:

* How I FEEEEEL about this character
* All the people I ship romantically with this character
* My non-romantic OTP for this character
* My unpopular opinion about this character
* One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.

Utena and because I can't decide between the two, Graham and Feldt.

Utena

* Utena could have been so much cooler if she didn't fall under the sway of the bad guy. Also she suffers from becoming, like Mamoru and Tamahome before, the Bishounen Boyfriend. Which was kind of what she was going for.

In all honestly, I liked her, thought she was funny and suppoted her for challenging gender stereotypes, and then she basically becomes a cardboard cutout hero for a while, no longer the focus of her own series. She was like the mecha being piloted for the fight scenes and that's kind of it.

Quoting forever movie!Utena's "IT WAS YOU, WASN'T IT?!" though.

* Ugh. None, really? Maybe Dios, but it's more wanting to become him than wanting a romance with him.

* Well, Wakaba.

* Alas that my many unpopular opinions about this series are not really directly about Utena herself.

* Heh. I wish she'd killed Anthy and saved the Prince.

Feldt

* She could have been SO MUCH MORE, and they wasted her in Season 2, much like they wasted a lot of people.

* CERTAINLY NOT SETSUNA. Ugh, where did that even come from --
Clearly she had a little crush on Neil, but I don't think it was reciprocated. I don't ship her.

* CHRIIIIIIIIIIIS. ;o;

* I have no idea what opinions about her there are out there, so I refrain from answering in this in ignorance.

* OMG, first of all I would like her to have punched Lyle, if he had to exist. She should have become a Gundam pilot! And we could have gotten either scenes in the various non-animated materials showing how when her parents died CHELL and/or THE VASHTIS raised her, or an appearance by Chell in Season 2 referencing Feldt's awesome parents. SHE COULD HAVE BEEN AWESOME, GOD DAMN IT!

Graham

* He was funny in the beginning, and he sorta redeemed himself in the movie of all places, but in between those points I didn't like him. He was obsessed and off his nut. Sometimes he would say things that were funny, but they were largely lost on Setsuna.

* ...Let's not even go there.

* He clearly bonds well with those under his command, sometimes. You could probably name them better than I could. He's not a bad commander, when he's in his right mind.

* Hm. See above?

* I wish he had never become Mr. Bushido. If he could have regained his -- not sanity, but lucidity -- in Season 2 instead of it being wasted in the movie, that would have made me happy. But Season 2 has a lot to answer for.
