The characterization felt superficial and over-exaggerated because it was rushed. So definitely agree with serenade_beta and Klashikari there, it's the way it was presented, so it's not surprising that people react to it in such a manner. Anyone else happy with it is just defensing or ignorant.
But the original source didn't play out completely like that, and it had more events that helped lead up to the resolution and the stances of the respective characters so the reader could understand more where they were coming from, which AIC clearly cut out in interest of time (what are they rushing for, I still don't understand).
