Her character made so little sense.

I wonder if she was there as an attempt to introduce a Star Wars clothing line for husky women.

She has been a real inspiration for me and I've tried to copy her resilience in my daily life.

Like that time when my buddy was about to do something really courageous and heroic by jumping into a fire to save some kids, and I just decided to blindside tackle him before he could. I then told him I was saving him, even though it put us in a far more perilous situation. It was a really beautiful moment <3

I blame her entire arc on Rian Johnson.

We will never know if she could have been a good character or not.

You have been Tico'd, and you are a better man for it. It's stories like these that make me proud to have this safe space for all of us to share. Keep saving those you love, my friend

They could have turned her entire character around if she breaks down after crashing into Finn, saying she didn't want to lose anyone else.

That she wasn't willing to sacrifice more since her sister(?) died in that bombng run that accomplished nothing. Hell throw in that she heard about Finn and has a crush and that's why she was so disappointed and critical of him seemingly trying to run away earlier.

Corny but at least it helps make some sense of her choices and deepens the understanding of the character arc.

I find it hilarious that she had maybe one scene and line in Rise of Skywalker after being a major character in the previous movie

Does she actually bite his finger in the movie? I've seen it several times and never noticed that

Would’ve been the best arc for Finn’s useless character as well

We lost out on Mara Jade, Thrawn, C’baoth, Talon Karde, etc. for this garbage. I hate you, Disney.

What, you expect a fantasy movie about space magic and laser swords to entertain you? How very white of you. Why don't you get down off your high horse and instead of demanding to be entertained like a petulant child, allow yourself to be educated?

I still believe to this day that Rian Johnson and Kathleen Kennedy used her as a stalking horse to deflect criticism of TLJ.

Terrible character and terrible casting.

The character reminds me of how Hollywood saw Asian males in the 80's comedies.

If they wanted to cast an Asian female in a budding-adventure-hero role, I've always said they should have cast Chloe Bennet (real name: Chloe Wang) from Agents of SHIELD.
