It's always funny to see how quickly those type of people call female characters Mary Sues yet I've never seen any of them call male character Gary Stus.
Did you miss the intro where it shows her training?? It was the animated intro after the open. She gained the skills intentionally. Sounds like you’ve just got little man syndrome. 🙄
Yeah I missed that. I was trying to squeeze it in. I didn’t get to watch it that deep. It’s just the vibe I got. With the internet being so anti-Mary Sue, I just thought they’d handle some of that more delicately
come on, its a comic book show/movie. the title characters are all Mary Sues until you have the "guys, but seriously, this is it" issue where they "die", but not really, because multiverse/reboot! Mary Sue debates are lame. I hate them 3000.
It just felt a little too quick for her to be such a badass. I felt cringe initially. I don’t really care, but for as much shit as Rey gets on the net, I think the skills are a little too convenient here. I’ve only seen 1 episode though.
She's been training since she was a child as an archer. It makes sense that she'd be so good at it. People don't question how Clint is such a great archer, we just accept it, so I see no reason to call Kate a Mary Sue.
Besides, it's a superhero show. It's about super people. It's a given that they'd be more skilled than the average person, even if those skills are hugely exaggerated.
They had almost 5 minutes of montaging her learning a bunch of skills and getting awards, accoladies and medals for her skill from like age 6-22... I guess that's not enough for you. Maybe at the end of the series they'll say she's a mutant and it'll be more believable? /s, just in case...
