'''Besides I feel like u keep dodging her issues and advocating that shokuhou is completely faultless and no one can criticize her and I mean how can I not take it as aggressive defense of waifus. No offense tho it's just my impression'''

Total offense because I dodged no issue at all, I just don't think there is anything worth adressing in "she laughs at Mikoto!". It's literally useless waifu war. And, again, Mikoto is not some maiden needing defense: when Misaki trolls her, Mikoto responds in kind right back and doesn't back down, instead of crying about it and how awful Misaki is for not liking her.

Why is that not aggressive waifu defense when it's on such flimsy grounds?

I also dislike this idea that being good means you have to be nice. Like, this exact argument could be applied to Kuroko: she isn't nice to Touma, someone who we have followed for more episodes than her if you start with Index and trashes him for no good reason. Heck, I dislike Kuroko's archetype in manga and manga, the lesbian friend who is in love with her friend and hates all males and thus is hostile to a man her friend is interested in or who is interested in her.

However, because I'm a grownup, I'm able to have perspective:

1) Instead of being an anime-only, I read the source materials, both Index novels and Railgun manga, and thus know the anime far exaggerated Kuroko's tendencies and even made it worse in some instances.

2) I may dislike some of Kuroko's actions, but I still think she is a good person overall, even if she is not always nice.

3) In manga/novels, Kuroko may not really like Touma, but she acknowledges him and is far less rabid about his interactions with Mikoto, thinking they are important to Mikoto even if she does not like it.

I'm able to be mature about Kuroko. Would be nice if the same could be done to Misaki.
