W4rma -

Tanya is not evil. the real name of this series is Youjo Senki, "Military Chronicles of A Little Girl." the "official" english title of the show is some clickbaity over-dramatization, and you've shown why it's a bad title. by power of suggestion it forces the false idea on people that Tanya is evil. no matter what she does, how, or why; she's just evil because she's evil and she'll never do anything that isn't just evil. the show even goes out of it's way to change parts of the story to make Tanya seem more cruel and "evil" than she actually is in the novel. sure, we can't expect everyone to read the novel and know how the show skewed the story (even besides having to drop all the inner monologues), but instead of actually thinking for yourself about what/how/why Tanya does things you just believe that Tanya is evil when given nothing more than a "because I said so" level reason.
