I don't like Sys.
ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ノ~

Honestly I feel like his character just doesn't fit well with the rest of the story.

He seems like just a token stereotype fabulous gay guy who's all rainbows and sparkles 24/7. Like he's in a secluded fortress with limited access to necessary supplies but somehow can just whip up a tea party to feed everyone cupcakes. Because he's fabulous of course he can.

And he wouldn't be a good gay if he didn't decorate his room in bondage gear and leave dildos scattered on the floor. And make his personal guards wear backless dresses with boob windows and stiletto high heels.

Idk to me personally he just feels like wacky gay shenanigans forced into the story and given an important role to be like "See! I'm actually super necessary to the story, we wouldn't be here without me!"

And in case it isn't obvious, no I don't have anything against gay people... seeing as this is a BL story..... I literally just don't think Sys fits in this kind of setting.

    You do remember that Sys was the reason why on the first season Wolfgang and Shin were given a Chance to talk to Sys' father which has given Wolfgang a strong ally and a fighting chance to the throne. Also, Sys has played a big part on the Coup d'etat. Right?

    He never forced his bodyguards to wear those things but instead they thank Sys that they can express themselves freely.

    As a Fab gay guy, its just his personality.

    Omg thank I cant stand him. I know it’s not fair to attack him for not being some hyper masculine version of himself compared to all the other “traditional” characters but everything about seems like a caricature not an authentic self. So I don’t find his femininity a real extension of himself as gay/bi/queer man. It just acts and looks like what I’d expect the villain of a Disney movie to be like when back in the day queer culture was coded as villainous.

    Yes a caricature that's perfect!
    It's not the fact that he's effeminate, it's the fact that he's such an over-exaggerated version of a gay stereotype for comedic effect.

    Like he gets filled in on Randolph's past and how he ended up there, and despite the heavy subject matter here's Sys with his shoujou roses and pink sparkly background popping a boner because Randolph is "soooooooo cute!"
    Like really? C'mon...
