we have different opinions

both think Mel is not same category as Faith BUT while you think Cerise is better than Mel(maybe even think she has small leadership skills; and I don't know how you compare Cerise to Faith), I think "raw talent" of Mel is better than "Effort to get over Mel" of Cerise

I said Cerise is a better planner, not a better leader. She's worse than Mel in that department, just look how poorly she's run the school since taking over. And I haven't compared either of them to Faith, in either regard.

My point was, Cerise puts more thought, time, and effort into carrying out her schemes. We've seen that, and we've seen how far that's taken her up Artemis' social ladder. Even so, Mel was still more popular than Cerise, based on her combat exams alone. But as Cerise noted earlier, much of Mel's success was due to things simply falling into place for her, rather than actual effort on her part:
  • Mel got the wand, by sheer happenstance.
  • Tiffany volunteered to coach her.
  • Then Hecate showed up with the vial, to give her even more power.
Cerise has had her share of dumb luck too - like backstabbing Tiffany by sellig out her brother, or the time Callista helped her beat Zora. But Cerise also works for what she wants. Mel doesn't.

I think you underestimating her planning potential because of her sheer luck, plus as I said

is easier to "work on simply being popular" than to take over someone and also become top dog(as in order people, not in receiving adulation)

so the reason that it is easy to focus on "Cerise labors harder for what she wants" and assume that Melissa would not step up if she is forced to

Pointless arguing is one of the three pillars upon which the Internet is built. The other two are of course cat pictures and porn.

Note how I didn't even bother replying to Gotoh again to point out that Hekate was clearly well aware of Mel's parentage and princesshood. She's the prize worth Hekate's time, Cerise is a bog-standard witch.

(Yes).

gotoh will come back with "if Hekate sees that as fact" than that means Mel's mom is Anastassia (just her and her lover, or fusion of her and Dakota) and no chance that Mel's mom is Dakota and her lover thus only becoming a witch because she was in the tummy of the fusion of the 2 of them and not "by birth"

Yet you just did, indirectly and snidely, I might add.

That said, parentage has little if anything to do with leadership quality. There is such a thing as an upper-class twit (warning: TV Tropes link).

I have to say this comic was damned confusing until I had read something like the first page of the forum...
