I love Alex so much <3 I was biased to like her superficially, because she's black and it's not often you see black characters in anime/manga, but she's a really interesting and likeable character to me even regardless of that.

I especially like that they chose not to make her some sort of sexpot or something, which tends to be easily done with prostitute/former prostitute characters in fiction. She's unusually shy but affable; and she moves forward from that past and is treated with respect by her new family and (most) of their allies/acquaintances. I hope she finds some higher purpose though, rather than just sitting around perpetually confused (I'm not caught up though).
