I am female. I have not found Nutcracker to be appealing to me as a character, but I have no objection to her presence in the story. I do find it rather bizarre that all her crimes get forgiven because she has a sexy character design.

I think that it is perfectly fine for a male author to write diverse female characters. If an author treats their characters as first human and then female, female characters usually turn out fine. Ishida likes to take character tropes and then expand them into full well rounded human characters, I like this a lot. I personally think that it is good that a demographic that often thinks girls and women would dress this way for them, gets to find out that she dresses this way because of childhood trauma. Ishida has done his reasearch.

People that blindly sexualize women, will sexualize women regardless. Maybe now they will be a little worried that a women they objectify wil eat their ........ um.

Fiction is a wonderful place to discuss complex issues, as long as we treat those issues seriously then controversial topics are, in my opinion, a positive.
