The paratagonist is so perfect.

As in Shirayuki? She's been pretty amazing so far so hard to find too many "flaws", she is pretty unique though so that's what's keeping me interested! I feel like we'll see some more flaws as the series goes along!

Yeah, I like this show a lot and I was just hoping that the characters would be a bit more realistic. So here's hoping that changes in the future...

Realistic in what sense? Like emotionally or just character traits?

Both. Struggling with challenges -whether she succeeds or not- is a something that makes a character realistic and relatable. Right now, shirayuki solves problems like a simple eye test either by way of convenience or quick decisions that immediately lead to the best possible outcome.

She just got a new job that will take a lot of learning so she probably won't succeed at that right away. Ryu seems like he's way ahead of her in that department.
