She's a Mary Sue from a shitty movie. No one cares. Kill yourself.
Literally no flaws. Textbook Mary Sue.
Alright, so what are her flaws?
Go back to Tumblr, RLM drone.
She's a woman. It's unbelievable if she's capable of doing anything other than complain about things that men do.
writting in a handwave to explain away why your character is a Mary Sue doesn't make her not a Mary Sue. If she's more naturally gifted in the force than Luke, it's because they wrote it that way so she could be a Mary Sue. If she got tough living a hard life, it's because they wrote it that way so she could be a Mary Sue.
All the shit was a contrivance to justify her defeating Kylo Ren, which is was a disaster for several reasons:
1) There's no tension for their next meeting. Kylo Ren is not dangerous or intimidating. If she loses, people will say her training was shit. If she wins, it's cinematically meaningless.
2) Rey already completed Luke's arc: she confronted the dark apprentice and the dark side and spared his life. What can Luke teach her?
3) It won't matter how often we are 'told' Kylo Ren could beat her but for (list of excuses). We were 'shown' him losing. Showing > telling.
4) If Kylo Ren could beat her so easily, why not have him win? Because the whole point was grrrrl power. How can she be a great feminist badass if she beat up a critically wounded man? The fedora tippers want it both ways.
She is though. The term originated from the world of Star Trek fanfics.
She probably won't die but she hits all the same notes. She's the bestest pilot, force user, fighter, etc. It seems like the OT crew cares about nothing else than Rey. Everyone else is a bumbling retard and she saves the day pretty much all by herself. TFA just a very expensive Star WARS fanfiction and it is actually really noticeable in a lot of ways. The plot reuse because the author isn't capable of creativity and had to recycle from what their fanfiction is based on. The Mary Sue author insert (Kathleen Kennedy). It's all there.
not really, she would have killed him if the world literally hadn't of stopped her…
