I'm also aware that there are people out there who still find her lovably quirky. So I'm curious, what does tokunation.com thing of Yuuki?

Personally, I really liked her at first. I thought she was a fun character and that she was absolutely adorkable. Over the last couple months, though - and especially after the Aquarius arc - I just can't stand her. For me she's crossed the line (which I dub the "Zooey Deschanel Threshold") between charmingly quirky and irritatingly obnoxious. I pretty much dread it whenever she gets screentime anymore, as more likely than not she's going to do something stupid and annoying. I'm not sure why or how this happened, but I really like the theory put forth on the HJU Radio podcast: that she's been standing too close to Gentaro when he transforms and excess cosmic energy has been deteriorating her brain cells.

Your thoughts?

However, the Aquarius arc was made to specifically bring up her more annoying tendencies and ramp them up to 11, and it was painful. Now it seems the writers decided to keep her in this super annoying, can barely act, state.

It's like they hit cute and lovably quirky, and then just kept going, and I hate listening to
her now.

Why do I get the feeling that if we went to school together, you'd beat me up often?
