Yuri is hated? This sure comes as a huge suprise for me... why? This kind of characters always seemed to be liked. Even I don't mind her considering that I never found any appeal in main characters. I actually find her quiet interesting, though also prefer Tenshi more.

Well, sometimes I have to thank the haters and doubters of Yuri because then fans can unit and tell how wonderful Yurippe is through logic and good reasoning. I'm glade episode 9 Yurippe blamed herself to keep the doubters quiet.

i think so too...yuri is not that bad after all...
she's actually feeling guilty about what happened to kanade... and at the same time, thinking and preparing for counter-measures for the safety of SSS...as like what otonashi said, she is indeed a good leader... |

Not sure about you guys, but i wills surely miss Yuri for the most part by the end of Angel Beat.
I don't know myself, but she always surpass my expectation, especially how mature she actually turned out to be. Firstly was her observation in Kanede's Mapo Tofu screen. Then Naoi's joining the SSS, and Kanede's fishing invitation. Finally it was her participating in Kanede's rescue missions and Yuri concern over her. For the past few years I do like many anime characters. But Yuri is probably one of the few that really earned my respect PS: Spoiler for Aren't they lovely:

I agree with both, the way she is so much mature, shows good leadership, and concern for others, such as Otanashi to help him find his past, Tenshi's well being after episode 8, and not wanting to make GirlsDeMo suffer meaningless in episode 8 since clone could slaughter them in seconds, all of that really makes me respect Yuri. She's a great character, and I will miss her so at the end of the series.

Yuri actually treat Kanede quile well whenever it is personal matter (and in such cute rivaling way, i hate to say). But when it comes to responsibility or mission, well it was not like Kanede will treat Yuri lightly either.

She did start to show concern and actually started to notice things about Kanade which others didn't except Otonashi. In the end after taking away Kanade's position she once again was the one who saw the difference in character and actually started to doubt her own actions. And she had almost no connection to Kanade while Otonashi started to learn more about her in closer way. Yuri might not be the best character but she definetly stomps Haruhi in all possible way with whom she has similar looks.

Yuri makes assumptions about Kanade and then sticks to them even when facts point in another direction. I know people that love Yuri like to excuse her faults with "well, how could she have known", but I think it's pretty clear that Yuri didn't WANT to know most of the time. Kanade might be retiring and hard to converse with, but she's also completely direct and honest when asked a question. Even from the very first episode, viewers were questioning Yuri's stance on "Tenshi", so it's hard to imagine someone as bright as Yuri didn't have the same misgivings. If she didn't, then she's sort of sociopathic. If she did, she's self centered enough that finding the truth didn't matter as much to her as taking out her anger on the nearest authority figure. Even when our actions seem necessary, as they were in episode eight, there's absolutely nothing wrong or weak about feeling bad for the suffering they've caused someone and apologizing for it--even internally.

Me? All that's been "released". I haven't seen Japanese versions, so I haven't been able to read ahead.
To be honest, I think Yuri is more interesting and sympathetic in the prequels, but taking them into consideration, the amount she's escalated the conflict in the series proper makes her look pretty bad.

Yuri made assumptions but she didn't stick to them. Watch properly, each time she was doubting her actions and coming to realize that Kanade is not God's creation. In the end when Kanade was removed from her position, she never bothered her again. Actually she wasn't sure if she should do the ticket trick at the end of the episode and later was the only one out of all team who actually agreed for Kanade to join the fishing when even Otonashi's fanboy who was following Kanade all this time was against. She also was the one who organized a rescue team to help Kanade, no one asked her and forced her and later she was sorry. Besides during fishing she still could have doubts towards Kanade, after all she didn't know her as well as Otonashi did. And show is not over yet, there is plenty of time to say sorry still.

And again, Yuri makes no overtures towards Kanade. She agrees after the request has been made to allow her to go fishing, but spends the entire time staring at her as though Kanade is suddenly going to start slaughtering them. That is not the sign of someone that has put aside their preconceived notions about Kanade and her humanity. Quote:
Then, when she goes back, it's clear that she's worried over the impact this will have on her group. Quote:
There are a lot of good things about Yuri. She is brave. She is decisive. She cares very deeply about her friends and works hard for their sake. I think she's basically a good, but broken person. Again, it's just that her treatment of Kanade is NOT one of the things I am inclined to give her credit for.

This anime has been largely focused on Otonashi and Kanade so far, so it's not that weird people prefer Kanade over Yuri, or have hate feelings regarding Yuri. For me, but that's just personal, Yuri is the most interesting character -- especially how she decides to handle different circumstances, I think she has really proven to be a great leader. I suppose people tend to jump the gun on this one, Kanade is soo moe and innocent! She surely doesn't deserved the angel bullying. (who could possibly hate her?!) Let's blame Yuri. Fine, but it doesn't work for me. Oh well, people have favourites characters. In this case Yuri gets the shaft, I feel sorry for her. (I like Kanade just as much as Yuri, so I am not hating on her! ) |

How can anybody doubt yurippe and kanade treatment after seeing this pic?
Spoiler for saving space:
Yurippe can't apologize now to Kanade since she plays the villain role again even if she wanted too. Besides what is there to apologize for when there really isn't a fault? Tenshi doesn't nessarily hold back her punches either especially the knife battle in episode 2 and I don't see anybody apologizing to anybody. During the fishing trip, it is hard to get along buddy-chum type when you have been fighting that person since the start of this world so I can't condemn Yurippe for observing Tenshi actions.

Because he actually talked to her and saw what she is like. And the only reason why that happened is because Yuri gave him such role which pushed him closer to Kanade. So basicly the only reason why Otonashi is helping Kanade is because of Yuri.
Quote:
Also the clear look on Kande and her emotions became clear after she was removed from her position. It is basicly the only time when you see her act more human like. Even Otonashi comes closer to her after that and Yuri also never bothere Kanade from that moment. Quote:
In comparison to Otonashi she has memories and not the best ones. If Otonashi went through same thing, he also would have been different. Quote:
Firstly she is a team leader so making sure that everyone are alright is leaders first priority. Secondly once again she doesn't know Kanade, not the way Otonashi does. Thirdly her being suspicious did pay off since clone had appeared. Quote:
I think you are mixing up two different situations here. It is clear that she is sorry for what happened to Kanade and what Otonashi said was true so I don't see a reason for her to deny it. And it is completly reasonable to be worried about which side will wake up, because basicly if it is wrong one she will be at fault before Kanade again. Besides what stops her from being worried about both things at once? Kanade herself was worried about which consiousness would awaken. Quote:
And just to remind you, I prefer Kanade much more over Yuri so I'm not favoring here.
