Yeah, that one at least felt more three dimensional (her movie and novel versions are nuts, and her manga version is just paranoid). I don't think any of the countermeasures girls really had it coming in the anime; they're just a bit misguided in their motivations, and honestly, at fifteen so were most of us.

I wasn't particularly happy she died in the anime, but all things considered it's about the only way her character arc could've ended at that point. If she'd been trying to help the rest of her class like she started off rather than trying to settle her vendetta with Mei, she'd have made it.
