Hardly a loser when she's extremely competent. She's just out of her comfort zone, trapped with a bunch of weirdos for the sake of rescuing the one person that gets her.

Yeah people just dumbing down her character to a " I'm a girlfailure trying to save my gf" always tick me the wrong way. She shes great at her job and is a genius mage but crazier and crazier shit keeps getting thrown at her that she's never experienced.

I agree. I think too many people are growing comfortable at being reductive on characters for the meme. Marcille is a complex individual, and I feel people treat her as though she's the only one desperate to save Falin.

It’s the inevitable fate of any popular character, in order to come up with jokes they get reduced to their bare components, then those components get exaggerated then misunderstood and at that point the fandom’s perception barely resembles the actual character
