Never understood why so many people seem to hate Manaria. I like her quite a bit (I actually like her more that Lily)
Her character is just too convinient
She's definitely Ms Plot Device, which is annoying and bad writing, especially when compared to how other important characters are treated in the web novel
I personally also hate Manaria for how much she abuses and bullies Rei, I mean, at some point Rei is actually at the point of breaking down completely and that's just not cool, no matter if you had "good intentions" or not. Let's not forget that she literally put Rei in hospital as well... Overall, she's just a character that behaves shitty and seems to always get away with it, which feels really unfair and kind of like her actions are supposed to be okay, which they are absolutely not and under no circumstances ever would be
Still, I'd probably be more happy to see her as a flawed but interesting character if she wasn't just such a convenient plot device
