Balsa almost comes across as being a one of a kind character in that regard or at least an exceedingly rare one as far as TV anime are concerned. It'd be interesting for sure to see more characters like her, but I'm not sure we're going to all that much as to use a character like that raises the question of how you are going to sell merchandise surrounding it.
