Really feeling your post about meryl. Feels like she's there just bc she's from the Manga and they felt they had to include her. I expected her to do more, have more of a purpose but she's just kinda there. I guess we have one more episode but really is upsetting that the 98 anime was able to do a better job in 98 and now in 2023 feels like we regressed and had to give her a mentor to give her development. I don't know man I'm just pretty bummed out that she's the main female in the story yet seems like the story doesn't care much for her. Hope this is just really long set up for season 2 but even then what a bummer to have to wait a whole season to get to meryl substance, if that's the case in the first place.

I’m glad I’m not the only one. I never expected my post to get that much attention but I’m really happy we’re more than just a couple of people. I kept thinking maybe I was being too harsh. I kept waiting for meryl to get something anything but we are 11 episodes in all she’s been is literally a guest star? Why advertise her as a main character? I would’ve preferred her to basically be erased like milly at this point and I’m serious lmao. It is so disheartening to see her get pushed aside especially when wolfwood already gets a lot and a whole arc with loads of action with vash later on the first part was rlly vash and the girls so idk man. The 98 version being better with her and milly also even more insane when u consider how easily they could’ve been misogynistic and sideline her but instead in 2023 we get it. but yeah i’m not expecting much and I am completely turned off by the show lol so if it does get renewed I will most likely not care about it until meryl gets more than 2 seconds every episode also MILLY.

ALSO. adding roberto another male character who’s an OC for her only for him to take up screentime be useless and not even actually give her character substance like be serious orange.
