Now I'm not sure what I read, so I'm giving the anime a chance to see if it may have succeeded in that regard.
I see what you don't like, but I dunno, I like that there is finally another rare character that doesn't give that all away and hides everything to strangers and isn't bi-polar or a badass with multiple levels of softness or a tough chick shooting off a sob-story right off the bat. While I want her to grow and change I don't want her to be suppressing sad emotions all the time for angst purposes I'd like to see her be serious and calculating and eventually sympathetic. Given that she's not exactly human anymore in the first episode I would think there's going to be a rather dark tragic backstory.
