Honestly I never liked neo

Or you know, just have Nero man up. I don't know where Nero stands on the power scale here, but Hinata would wreck Neo in a fight. The sheer speed even academy students in Naruto have is insane. Hell, 4 year old Naruto could jump off a mountain, free fall for over a thousand feet and land easily without any injury in a straight drop. Honestly, Neo's hot, but she doesn't really bring anything to the table that Hinata doesn't already except unlocking aura.

There aren't any straight up physical Illusions in Naruto lol. Neo's Illusions are probably on the level of Tsukuyomi or Kotoamatsuki if anything, and the Byakugan stands no chance against that level of technique. Neo's illusions actually have dimension and volume to them, something that no genjutsu in the Narutoverse does. I think it is perfectly canon-compliant that the Byakugan can't see through them, the way around it that a Byakugan user would quickly learn would be the ability to tell the slight differences they have compared to Reality.

I prefer Neo being in the story, she will cause a bit of chaos that is necessary. As Ideas-guy mentioned, Hinata and Nero are currently both passive characters. Forcing a Chaotic-Evil character on them is a good way to ensure that Nero and Hinata undergo character development, and in all likelihood, Neo would probably get some as well. This is literally the first chapter with her, at the very least there should be a few more before people start saying "Get rid of her!" imo.

Right. To address some of the concerns -- no, Neo isn't going to be like this all the time. Right now, she's lashing out and she has no reason to since nothing is tying her down to Nero and Hinata. Neo is reckless, a bit of a sociopath, but she's not stupid. As for why I picked Neo -- it's because she's going to cause problems. Nero and Hinata are both passive characters, especially when Nero is going out of his way to avoid trouble. Neo is a character that encourages conflict -- both with other factions, and between characters because she and Hinata are very different people. And yes, she's going to get better and no, she won't get off scot-free. The next chapter's title is literally punishment. However, if people hate her that much, then I'll put up a poll next week after the first tier patrons get a chance to look at it. If the majority don't care for her character, then I'll replace her and rewrite the chapter -- though, to be noted, that would mean Be a Dragon would go on a brief hiatus while I change things around.

This chapter was really disappointing. Neo was extremely stupid, and if this is what we can expect from the character, I'm going to rapidly lose interest. Especially with Nero and Hinata who won't actually do anything to punish or stop her. Plus I'm kind of wondering why you put someone with the Byakugan in the story if you don't know anything about it. The Byakugan could easily see through the illusions of Neo's semblance, it's already what it does in canon and it can also see through solid objects so Neo barely solid illusions wouldn't fool it.

Neo is, canonically, something of a sociopath, really. She *does* care about Torchwick, but that's...

Eh, she's a criminal responsible for thousands of deaths probably. What did you guys expect. IMO it was okay character development wise.

zane

agreed

TinyDeath

Not a fan of Neo.

Dream71

Same i never like characters like that, load and "i can do anything with no consequences" type, is just annoying to make them cooperate and take way to much screen time for no reason.

DorbenRS

Neo is not a favoured character. She’s just childish and immature. I’ll look forward to the time she gets less screen time.
