What is she not perfect at (and don't say cooking, because that's just a running gag found in various animes)? The beach episode even parodies this. And I have a feeling you're just going to say "her naivity!" but we already discussed that, so please try to find something else.

And for the 50th time, you and I clearly have a different view of what makes a Sue. I think she is a Sue because she is essentially flawless, but that just brings the whole argument back in a circle.

I find it funny how the contents of the beach episode are "SERIOUS CANON" yet the cooking is but a running gag. Nia is socially retarded and basically useless. She has no specific skills and can't engage in any practical or useful tasks other than arguing, how can someone like that be "flawless"?

Her cooking habits can be found in about 70% of anime out there. Her amazing looks/atheltic ability/purity combined are not.

I've already discussed the "socially retarded" comment. Oddly enough, her social retardation never brings her in any conflict with any of the main cast. Her uselessness is never truly detrimental, because Simon will always come to save the day in the nick of time. She's always giving him support by the sidelines, and everyone loves despite her uselessness.

Her amazing looks/athletic ability/purity combined are the generic traits of a classic shoujo heroine. Sandy Bell, Heidi, Candy Candy or Nadja showcased them. Hell, not only shoujo heroines... fairy tale princesses showcase similar attributes. They're not the trait of a Mary Sue.

And why would the cast hate them when they hate nobody? No-one in the cast hates Yoko either, is she a Mary Sue? Obviously not. No-one in the cast hates Dayakka, is he a Mary Sue? Obviously not.

Here, picture this: image someone different from Simon would have opened the case. Imagine she had no-one to rely on after being forsaken by Genome. She would have grown depressed, don't you think?
