What Makes Her Inconsistent?[]
- She is way too perverted to be even Near Pure Good through her gimmick and often acts in a sexual, lecherous manner and willing to get seductive in front of underage students such as Sero, making her incredibly lewd and raunchy (it's not helping that her superheroine costume is revealing and she has no shame about it. Although, to give her some credit, it's not as revealing as her original costume.)
- She also has a sadistic side to her, as she habitually enjoys dominating other people and humiliating them (her enemies or otherwise), she even displays it in front of everyone like her fight against Hanta Sero and Minoru Mineta, for example.
- She has several arrogant and jerkish moments, especially regarding her rivalry with Mt. Lady since she is often arguing with her.
