...... They didn't need to make her Hot

But they did :3

I feel like any other show would've put a two-dimensional character in Azel's place, and yet they're not just annoyingly perfect or self-absorbed or simply too casual for Klak's liking, they themselves are also a somewhat dysfunctional adult who struggles to keep things casual even when that is what they want and continuously let protocol, self-preservation and their beliefs about the importance of talent and career get in the way of truly doing the right thing. And all things considered, in the end they still care for Klak enough to be willing to risk everything to save them, and yet reputation remains an issue for them after that. They keep coming back to their own issues with their own plots and journeys despite the general conventions for a "bad idea ex" type character like them being so much more one-note than this.

And spoilers for season 2 but despite being by all means a perfect match for Klak, Zypha is herself a mess too, dating other people casually seemingly to try and get over a person she performed one (1) surgery with (which clearly failed), having sustained issues about the literal death cult she grew up in, and taking someone on a 20 hour first date without any warning. The woman is a match to Klak because she matches her issues.
