She may be a bit...old to convincingly do the things her character needs to do.

Of course, part of the depends on what role she plays in the story. Does she kill a bunch of people like she does in the novel, or just attack Manabu, Takako, Naoya, and Yuuya like she does in the anime? Personally I think Naoya's "I don't wanna die!" scene works better with Izumi anyway, since it's as good a time as any for her to lose it.
