Maria is probably the character I'm actually most interested in finding out more about after the foreshadowing at the end of the 2nd episode that she's responsible for much death and suffering. If this checks out sooner rather than later I have a hunch this thread is going to become very busy.

Maria is one of the better representations of a lesbian character that I've seen in anime.
You can tell that her relationship with Saki means an awful lot to her, but Maria is also a very smooth and well-adjusted individual in general, and not some sex maniac. Such a shame that Saki/Maria can't last due to the conventions of their society.

Maria is a nice girl... She likes Saki very much... and she is her premarital mate..
She's assertive ( if you what episode 8, your jaw will drop), far more hard core in the manga!!! Anyway... based on the current situation she seemed to have chosen Mamoru to be her mate.. I'm glad.. What a nice couple they'll be but still Maria will still be on the top... Last edited by NoemiChan; 2012-12-09 at 23:06. |

He means any other guy would have jump straight into Maria's pants the moment she choose him since they would become an official couple. It is not shown but I can bet that day after school the rest of the class were in whatever is the equivalent of "love hotels", not that they went so far as making babies, but checking the equipment they have been paired with >_<

This makes no sense. Would you enjoy a relationship with someone you don't love or aren't even attracted to? She has to accept it, yeah, but she doesn't have to like it, and it's pretty obvious she doesn't.

Guys.... why is it so unthinkable that Maria actually likes Mamoru and enjoys being with him? Loves him, even, in a way? If she didn't care about him she wouldn't be so protective of him since they were twelve. If she found his devotion annoying she would've already cut him off. (remember how easily they cut off Reiko?) But no, she's very protective of him, much more than anyone else from the group, and wants to keep him safe and sane. She probably also enjoys having such a devoted admirer around. Her having picked Mamoru was a given, since they already hang out together a lot (which she also wouldn't do if she didn't like him).
(I also don't quite get how people here have reached certain other conclusions about her, but I'm not going there...) |

I do think that she likes him as a friend and cares a lot about him. I just don't see her being attracted to him like she is towards Saki. In fact, putting aside Saki's longing for Shun, Maria's attraction for Saki was the only thing that seemed genuine to me when it comes to romantic feelings. All in all, I'm pretty sure she would stick with her is she wasn't socially conditioned to look for a male partner.
