That of course, though I'd argue about the decrease of badassery in her character. You could say that the dimension her character got made her less easy to idolize as a "cool antagonist", but I'd say that this character was broken even before Chiru...basically it only existed in the interim of EP2. EP3 broke her character quite severely and only some people were fooled into believing that she was actually acting throughout all of EP3.
The "badass Beatrice" was just a construct that the readers were supposed to pick up but was being rivaled by other depictions again pretty early on.

So of course it is an opinion to like the badass uber-antagonist Beatrice the most, but it's not like it was CHIRU which destroyed her, it was an ongoing process.
