This person intricately does all these little lace things, puts on tons of makeup, wears big stilettos, but is the best swordsman ever? And she has zero muscle. One swipe from one of those robo-Giger things and she'd be broken.
I have only heard about the face-heel-face turn leading up to it. It started out as being a developer who told people that he wanted to make a smexy woman as the lead character and wouldn't tone her down to 'the right people' to be happy. HE went so far as to release pictures of the model for the main character to shut up people saying the MC was unrealistic. Then Heel-turn, they censored and covered up some of the outfits. Then after backlash and outrage Face-turn, released a free download to put them back in.
