She might instill sympathy and even improve to a likeable character eventually, but the fact of what she did, where she came from, for how long, and frankly how annoying she was with her self internal whining about everything wrong with her life and everyone around her yet for some reason still manages to stick with those that hurt her is ungodly annoying to say the least. Then there is that whole reason she needed money. Why did she need it? Who did she need to give it to? And why, after all she had been through and all the trouble she went through to get it, did she frankly give it up so easily? Didn't she have us believing she was somewhat more hardcore and resilient than that? I have trouble believing she could not get away from them either. Why was she so valuable to the Soma? Did they treat all supporters so badly? Could she not just leave the city? Then back to the money thing, why does she need to pay them off twice? All those reasons seem flimsly. If whack jobs from some criminal organization robbed me of money I needed to pay them to leave as if it were some illogical debt, then I would consider the debt paid. She is one of the few reasons, Bell looks bad. The fact he chooses to help someone who caused so much pain of her own is rather disturbing. I might not feel so bad if the only ones she victimized were from her Soma clan, but that is never made certain and the fact that other members knew she liked to put others in harms way suggests they wer not likely to fall for her tricks. I wonder how much suffering and bloodshed she is responsible for before meeting Bell. I doubt all her victims remotely deserved the fate she put them to and that means even if some of them were not the friendliest of people. There has to be a greater cause to empathize that any deserved either death or to be robbed. She is everything that is wrong with morally screwed up anime.
There are just certain lines that once crossed can never be uncrossed. And sorry to tell you all, but she crossed many of them and more and she did so proudly way more than once. She doesn't deserve empathy or sympathy. Do you really think just because some people treat you poorly or beat you that it gives you or her the right to do that and worse to others that had nothing to do with your suffering? I certainly hope not, because if so, this world is probably way past a path to doom. No one made her do those things to other innocent victims. She chose to do them, which makes her an aweful person. It only makes sense if they were the same creeps who did that to her in the Soma but, as mentioned, that is unlikely. SO instead of striking out at deserving targets, she chose innocent victimes to harm, rob, and kill. How is that good in any way?
She had such a sad story, the abuse and outcast factors are something that is all too real in the real world these days. Nobody should be put through that.
The change in her character going from a sad thief to being accepted and turning into super cute & adorable member of the main group is really warming.
I adore any character who has to go through crude struggles in a strive for redemption. She only wanted to survive in the world with absolutely no help from anyone else. It's pretty understandable where Lil's coming from and why she did what she has done. I only hope she becomes that much of a better character later on in the series!
