Anyway, I want to leave this point now, because my goal of raising awareness of the perception has been accomplished. You can say "rf, you're totally over-sensitive to this point" and you may be right. I am also over-sensitive when fans jokingly use terms like "rape". Maybe it's a quirk. But anyway, I was never trying to imply that the fans had any deliberate ill-intent. Just wanted to make sure I clarified that point. We can probably leave it at that.

I don't find anything you're saying to be untrue, but perhaps I myself never saw it as that much of an issue to get worried about. Regardless, while I myself don't it as something to get quite that worked up about, your contention is duly noted.

What I like about Sena is that despite her arrogance, she has a cute side. Beneath all her pompousness, you get to see a girl who really does want to be liked and even in the first few episodes you see a lot of growth in her.

On the note about the nickname, I made a point about it in the General Thread way back.
It's not something I would like to use for such a character(especially one I love so much) but at times I just feel compelled to use it but with no ill intentions, more in an endearing way, as some have said. Altho I can understand relentlessflame's point, I do think it's "wrong" in a way but also in it's own way a rare case where it's fine as well, as long as one doesn't mean bad by it. Anyway, putting that aside, Sena=<3 My favortie character of the series and not just cause of how she looks(altho won't deny her looks play there part) I think it's the feel of the character thats important and Sena hits all the right spots for me Much like Ami from Toradora.

So yeah, for me a very successful character for reasons that go well beyond looks (though, of course, those don't hurt).

Ito Kanae is great as Sena pretty much perfect for the role, unlike Inoue Marina as Yozora, which my verdict is till out on.

But otherwise, I generally agree that Sena's voice seems more immediately appealing and "connects" with the character more quickly. I think Yozora's voice takes a little bit of getting used to (but it's definitely not bad).

Still taking time to get us to for me which is a surprise as I'd usually get used to it already or decide it's not working at all. I guess in contrast to Sena, I think Yozura's voice kinda works, slightly more coarse to Sena's smoother tone. After just watching ep 5, I really like how she just gets so involved in gaming. I'm also like her, first play through I just gotta watch the cutscenes

her "do her best" hardworking attitude reminds me of Kirino. Of course there are other things that makes Sena likeable. there's a reason why she was ranked 4th in the female character poll in "this light novel is amazing 2011". speaking of this, 2012 rankings will be out in few weeks' time. waku waku.

Have definitely liked Sena's character so far in the series. Has a lot of talent, but can still support her as a kind of underdog. Joining the club to try and get friends and hanging in there when it comes to getting picked on.
Can definitely mess up, such as picking that fight after things were settled at the pool. But when scolded she actually did get it. Even with that ability to pick things up fast she does put the time into them. Fun to see her just get sucked into games and be unable to stop until she's done something amazing. In terms of the whole nickname thing I'll just stick to calling her Sena.

Hell yeah I loved that scene. The part when she was holding out her cell phone to show Kodaka while crying. You just feel like hugging that tiny head of hers and comfort her. "Help me, Kodaka" "My Phone!", HHHHNNNNGGG!!!
