To me Tia's characterization is very consistent. It's not like a normal one of these protagonists where they have guilt for no reason. She did a bunch of really bad things and feels guilt over them, she doesn't think she deserves anything good
I say it makes sense. If she didn't keep her memories, how could she change the past then? Even if no one remembers, she does. Yes, she was abused, and yes, she recognizes that she was a puppet of her brother and mother, but she still played a major role in the murder of many people that the ML cared about. She was a true villain with blood on her hands. It doesn't erase her actions. She will constantly wonder if the ML knew her past, would he still love her the same? That is why the constant guilt is still there.
I agree...
Yes but also..that future no longer exists, and she has change the possibility of it ever existing because she is no longer following that path, now she is holding herself back by being swamped in that guilt. I mean, it's the story so i get it has it's place but it's becoming a bit too much, i get that she has a reason for her guilt but like i said that future no longer exists, her guilt honestly should be at least a little lightened by the fact she is actively changing her ways and the possible horrible future.
These kind of mangas always make me think...what if you didn't keep your memories? I mean they feel all this guilt while trying to right their wrongs, but from the first moment they change their original path things are going to be hella different, and in this world they never did the wrongs so the guilt is unfounded, if they had gone back in time without their memories what would they do then? I think Tia's "guilt" is a bit too much in this manga, i mean she was used and abused her entire life, the guilt she holds isn't exactly her own it belongs to the monsters she called family.
