Why killing Ceroba in Flawed Pacifist is probably one of THE most justified kills.

I know, I know, this sound weird, but hear me out...

So, Clover (up until this point) has been a fully pacifistic child. Defused situations, mended relationships... you get it.

For Clover to be greeted by someone who acts friendly, but THEN after it all betrays them AND calls them "naive" about not understanding monsters? And acting as if Clover is the problem when saying "Why won't you die?!" and "Why wouldn't you just..." (at the end of her fight, alluding that Clover should've given up. It's messed up.) Sure, OTHERS attack Clover, but never any of them have been THIS hostile.

ABOVE that, Starlo while he DID act friendly, it was obvious he had issues from the start. Y'know, he was childish. Of course he was gonna do something stupid. Martlet never truly intended to kill Clover, and even after her battle, she ACTUALLY tries to help Clover throughout the journey.

But Ceroba? She appeared "mature" from the start. Someone calm-headed, who Clover could trust. Clover trusted her, listened to her EVERY wish, and didn't kill Axis or any of the robots (even though they would've been justified doing so.) And after that? Nothing. It all meant nothing. As much as Ceroba felt "regret," I didn't see it that much. She actively blames Clover and acts like it's THEIR problem. "Were you in my head just now? You have NO right." "Are you satisfied in making me live my darkest memories?" Ceroba is treating Clover like an adult who just did a heinous crime.

And all for what? A dead man? A dead man who had inherently genocidal views on humanity. Honestly? I doubt Clover could trust Ceroba after the battle is over. She broke their trust BIG time. And was the most stubborn person in a fight. All ended their fights relatively quickly.

To add to that, I still hate her for not even objecting against Clover's sacrifice. Makes me feel like she's an even bigger piece of shit.
