>>34601895>>34601783For me it's the opposite, the crush is what made her more interesting. I mean without it what would she be? Just the girl who did tripokalon's? If she didn't have that crush aspect on Ash then she'd just have a friendship with him similar to Dawn or May which would be rehashed for the third time in a row.
Serena shot up to my favorite characters list by XY60 because of how funny the crush subplot was.
