Ah, anime.....It's a bit hit and miss with me.
I have trouble with the concept of a ME109 personified as a sexy / cute adolescent flashing her panties at me "accidentally".....but thats just me. eg

Give me a sexy / cute adolescent girl in a skintight rubberised suit plugged into a giant killer robot defending the Earth from weird Kabalist aliens anytime
but you can keep the generic whiny self pitying "hero".eg
