Emu is a Mary Sue...

Just because you're an honestly kind person doesn't make you an unrealistic character. Like... what the heck? And that's before we get into how much shit they put him through on a regular basis and the out and out frustration that would come from having your only potential allies being a pair of anti-social, arrogant jerks who belittle you at every opportunity.

Fuck, I'd say I've met more people like Emu than I've met Taiga or Hiiro, and I'm one of those people who kvetches about being surrounded by idiots and assholes on a regular basis. The fact that he's in a career path that naturally attracts idealists and kind-hearted folks for the most part, even if it might chew up that innocence at some point, actually makes it more realistic.

That and his severe lack of all-mightiness or having everything go his way...

Do you even know what a Mary Sue IS?
