Two gundam characters I feel have a tendency to be misunderstood would be daryl lorenz and io flemming from thunderbolt. and thats understandable, its manga in the west isn't particularly wide spread [especially when we're talkin the less legal side of things] and its animated adaptations stalled out waiting for the manga to finish up [among health complications for the author as well].
in essence though id say they're two characters with very deceptive first appearances. io comes off as a very yazan like character, a skilled pilot out of raw natural talent and a bloodthirsty/battle hungry edge to him. someone who says to have been possessed by the demon of the battlefield. daryl lorenz on the other hand comes across as soft spoken and gentle, much more in the mold of your pacifistic type leading man ya see relatively often in gundam with the added bonus of newtype rumors [that are absolutely true of course] spiraling around him to boot.
once ya start getting into the individual characters especially as the story gets on ya start to see how those first impressions were, i would fairly confidently say, misdirects on the characters actual nature. io for all of his brutality on the battlefield is in essence incredibly fucking childish, and not even just in the sense of being immature but arguably in every sense of the word. hes easily excitable, he gets upset to the point of throwing tantrums, hes got that childish inflated ego that takes criticism poorly, and in the manga, he just makes the goofiest faces out of almost anyone else. and in that manner his initial demeanor reveals itself for the facade it actually is; an act to help handle the stress and tragedy going on in his life better [the loss of his home, his friends and their dreams falling apart, his fathers suicide] by effectively ignoring it and pretending everything's fine. its also why as a character he goes through a lot more development in terms of his identity as one then his comparative foil daryl, criticism from his teammates and commanders who try and help bring him past that childishness so his abilities as a pilot and asset can flourish, suffers a lot more setbacks and obstacles to overcome and develop around compared to the numerous successes daryl enjoys in the stories later half, until he finally gets that snap realization of 'i get it now' that lets him grow as a character after hitting his lowest point [the 'all is lost moment' as it were if ya wanna get cheeky].
daryl by comparison for all his outward nobility especially in the early parts of the story, is once ya move past that misdirection a character far more consumed by the battlefield then his comparative rival is I would say. we can see this in the literal sense, he loses his legs and one of his hands to the battlefield before deciding to willingly remove his last hand for the opportunity to be a better pilot on the battlefield, in the later parts of the story he suffers a number of lapses to his fight with io in the thunderbolt sector in later fights to the point of entering a warrior berserker like trance, and the reuse psycho-p device itself being his effective signature a device that connects you on a biological level to your mobile suit so you can pilot better [*cough* ibo *cough*] but i'd say you can also see that on a more thematic sense as well. daryl being the star pilot of the living dead division is arguably rather apt in the manner that as a character daryl could be said to be of the 'living dead' variety himself. he doesnt really have much of an interest in the zeonic cause all things considered, he only joins up to help earn citizenship for his family and he only joins up with the zeon remnants to care for karla [and cause they're using her as a barganing chip but shshshshhhh]. yet in man instances he still displays a strong sense of patriotisms towards the nation of zeon despite his own experiences, and i'd say the reason for that is that daryls something of an empty vessel for ideology at the end of the day who takes up these causes because of a lack of any strong personal beliefs. he shares a childish excitement for the battlefield with io at the end of the day certainly, the only time hes arguably ever actually alive even is on the battlefield, but he has a tendency to bounce between beliefs and ideologies rather easily taking them up passionately as his own and inspiring others to do the same without thinking for himself on any particulars. theres an argument to be made with the levan fu stuff that hes just doing and going what and where karla wants to go, but noticeably he becomes a much more genuine fan and believer of levan fus professed ideology then karla ever does [who correctly pegs that fu's just out for revenge more then an actual grand visionary], with others around him placing him in the position of an ideologue and successor to fu then strictly taking that up for himself. as well theres the whole matter of becoming more the mobile then your own person, being consumed by its power, cutting away so much of yourself that your only able to truly move [in daryls case feel like he has limbs again anyways] in a powerful machine of death etc, but thats all ground that also gets covered in ibo so i'll assume when i point to mikazuki and barbatos and say 'its kinda like that thematically', ya'll can get me.
with that all in mind its why i'd say the script ultimately gets flipped in a manner once it comes to the final battle [in setup anyways] in terms of the general strokes of the players at action. thunderbolt begins with the zealous unpalatably presented moore brotherhood using unsavory tactics in pursuit of a noble cause [reclaiming their destroyed stolen homeland] going up against the palatably presented living dead zeon division who are under orders to hold side 4s smoking ruins to protect their own homeland [and also be guinepigs but hey ho]. come to the final battle and you have the sketch as hell presented south seas alliance using unsavory tactics in pursuit of a noble cause [blowing up anaheim] going up against a more nobly presented spartan division of the federation who are under orders to stop the terrorists from challenging the federations authority [and blowing shit up, like anaheim].
cause as characters io and daryl themselves have gone in rather opposite directions all things told.
