Nebula2 - No, what was depicted in Kokoro by the author is the very definition of a failed Western woman to which something I recognize as relateable having to deal with many of these. What happened here was Mitsuru was such an awful & hated character for his attitude in the beginning due to a flawed character introduction design because nobody had any background story to know why he was being such a d-bag, that he was written to have a background that would somehow  magically make him less hated, the author did not want Mitsuru to be a hated unrelateable character, so now he's just semi-hated. But in the process of making Mitsuru more "acceptable/ tolerable", the author turned Kokoro, a former likeable character,  into a complete trash of a character.

It should piss you off to no bloody end that Kokoro was written this way, it really showed that Kokoro neither has a brain nor understands simple logic. She didn't even give Futoshi or the others the time of day to give them a chance as to whether or not the "real her" was accepted -- she's a bitch and should be treated to be recognized by fans of Darling in the Franxx as such.

What made it worse is that the author literally thought that using Futoshi as a spineless cucked punchingbag as the plot device to move this plot along was a good idea. By trying to pass off to the fans that Futoshi was suffocatingly annoying and "clingy", all that happened was that we ended up hating yet another third character.

Kokoro deserves to be shamed and hated, nothing more.
