Eden Ushinatta wrote: The Marleyan side gets humanized, something important, considering where the story is right now. It's just too bad that the story failed to make it work, at least in most peoples' eyes, since it seems like hardly anyone sympathizes with them; for example, I see things like this on TVTropes:  "Hate Sink: Initially, the upper government in Marley is this. As more of the situation is revealed, they become far more nuanced, but the fact that they're basically the Nazis makes it difficult to really sympathize with them."

I will say this, though:  Maybe the anime could do a better job with that? That's an idea I'm open about.
