I firmly believe Crow's bond stories where written *BEFORE* chapter 16 and 17 and that's why it contradicts her *current* character so much. Spoilers for Crow's bond story and chapter 16/17
I got Crow before reaching chapter 16/17 and my impression from her story was that she was just and edgy anarchist/nihilist who did terrible things to survive and justifies the actions of terrorists but it's probably lying about being one herself but would go to any length to free the people of the Outer Ring even if that means sacrificing bystanders
, since so far her lore had only *implied* about her being suspected of terrorism and Poli said that she had a clean record from her time as a human further implying she might be larping as the leader of Heavenly Ascension to avoid people.
But that simply isn't true, whatever "nuisance" her character had was thrown off the window, after those two chapters she's not only a real terrorist, she's the fucking joker, not only did she bomb the train that possibly killed >!Diesel and her brother!< and is responsible for other terrorists attacks that might have killed other nikkes (>!Delta!< and someone said >!Pepper idk i don't have her!<). She did it for pleasure, hatred towards the arc and to fuck with Syuen.
she went from an extreme maybe even naive revolutionary to a boku no hero villain who talks about society and the evils committed against her but only to justify her love for carnage.
TL;DR: Crow went from saying that the people in the Outer Rim are not evil and only victims of ther circumstances and do whatever it takes to survive and their terrorism is only the" voice of the unheard" so their plight can reach the people of the arc to literally saying "I am pure evil, and because i am evil i can overpower my nimph and shoot you"
A while ago we had a pretty amazing thread regarding Crow and her lore:
Most people share the same opinion that while her hatred was justified her approach was wrong, and she had no real solutions to free the people of the outer rim, until those two chapters arrived and now she's just a bloodthirsty villain.
