What the fuck was her problem?
A Silent Voice
Kevin Clark
Xavier Ross
Forced drama: the anime
Adam Cooper
Not pushing Ueno off the top of the Ferris wheel and blaming it on a mechanical failure that she couldn't hear happening.
Liam Walker
She was too nice.
Teachers didn't care.
Her classmates were mean spirited.
Gavin Nguyen
crybait puppydog character
Hudson Cook
Too cute
Justin Reed
She was designed as the manifestation of an absused animal commercial mixed with a starving child from a third world.
Writing an actual personality? Nope.
Character, YEETED out the window.
Just a walking pity party mechanically engineered to make npcs feel bad, lacking any honest or interesting characterization.
Jonathan Jenkins
t. incel
Juan Jackson
refused to speak her mind
Josiah Thompson
Kids are cruel, Jack.
Asher Jenkins
Pretty much spot on.
I wished she was beaten up to a pulp by the trap little sister.
Julian Ward
I'm guessing you're a supporter of feminism?
How come she didn't empower herself to fight back? How come Japan doesn't empower their women to fight back?
Brayden Scott
She should have been. The fact that she basically got off scott-free for all of her shit is one of the movie's objective detractors.
Aiden Ortiz
She couldn't hear
Angel Gray
She wanted everyone to feel sorry for her and give her a special treatment, a total attention whore, also her mother beating her up for not growing balls was half the problem.
Joseph Powell
maybe she should have grown a pair and lift herself up from the bootstraps, buttercup!
Christopher Edwards
This, being bullied or having an edgy anime past isn't a personality. She, like the rest of the cast is incredibly boring, they just feel like empty archetypes design to pedal shallow world views or "these kinds" of people.
Jacob Robinson
It was fine up until the bridge argument scene, then it was just sad shit after sad shit after sad shit never letting up, with basically every character in it getting a dedicated crying scene. If they wanted drama they should have spread it out more evenly across the whole thing instead of loading it into the second half.
Gabriel Parker
She had plenty of personality and complexity. It's just that you're too used to HEARING what their feelings are in monologue or dialogue. With Shoko, you had to infer a lot as to what her true feelings were. This was sort of the entire point of the movie.
Matthew Taylor

Luis Russell
The fact that the movie allows for an open interpretation of her character is something. Imagine fi Hollywood adapted this . .. . deaf girl good, bully guy bad . .. . You should be glad that this movie had a subtle approach to diagnosing characters
Kevin Perez
From the thread so far, the Anons in here have the average emotional maturity of an eight year old, so I wouldn't hold out hope for them picking up much in the way of nuance.
I mean, look at this guy. How do you essentially interpret a character backwards like this?
Ian Harris

Retarded mother assigned her to music class.
Juan Brown

Hmm.
Leo King
This is why you fail.
Jace Fisher

Justin Thomas
I was thinking about watching Koe no Katachi or VEG again but I don't think I can stomach either. The credits are gonna kill me.
Benjamin Roberts
>How do you essentially interpret a character backwards like this?
Not him, but trying to induce play the victim to get the attention from others is totally a thing. I used to do it.
Christian Walker
Read the manga, you filthy secondary
Jaxon Jones
I'm aware it's a thing. Do I think she was doing that thing? No.
If the scene where she started womping the crap out of bully kid hadn't happened I might.
Christian Campbell
Someone ejaculated into her ears. ears full of semen cant hear.
Caleb Johnson
Sorry, that was my bad.
Lucas Campbell
Shinji?
Jack Allen
Based Shinji boy, jerking off to defenseless girls since 1997
