Saber Marionette J/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Canon Sue: Marine from J Again.
  • Macekre: Tokyopop's "translation" of the manga.
  • Mary Sue: Marine, from Saber Marionette J Again. She's not only stronger than all of the other marionettes, but has the extra ability to manipulate plasma, coincidentally making her the only one who can save the world. She hijacks the story, making the entire plot revolve around her. She easily makes friends with the main cast, despite previously attacking them in the forest and going around stealing everyone's stuff. Most Egregious is the end of the series, where it is revealed that she has to sacrifice herself in order to save the world. Obviously she decides to do it, but Lime tries to stop her, even though doing so would condemn everyone on Terra II, even Otaru who she supposedly loves the most, to death (not to mention Marine would die anyway). This isn't just Lime being typically foolish, but everyone else agrees with her decision and tries to help her! Even though she fails to stop Marine from making the heroic sacrifice, it turns out that it wasn't much of a sacrifice after all, as Marine is only out of commission for a while but recovers just fine.
