My main concern about shows with tsundere heroines is the shows' tendency to emphasize their bitchiness over anything else that you can't help but despise them. And i find it troublematic that they think the best way to pad out their series is to continue the "panchira, smack, panchira, smack" well beyond the point of being over-played. Of course, the girl's always gotta be in the right and can practically get away with her crime because she's soooo damn cute that way :rolls eyes:
