Ramona Flowers, by Bryan Lee O’Malley. The thing about Romana Flowers is that she represents an attempt to get beyond the Manic Pixie Dream Girl, to the fleshed out, self-motivated character that could have been. With Manic Pixie Dream Girls, we get cupcakes, flowing locks, and big, vulnerable blue eyes, all in service to the development of the male character. Bryan Lee O’Malley is like, “HEY SCOTT, CHECK OUT THIS ADORABLE PIXIE-LIKE ROCK CHICK. OH SHIT, SHE’S A REAL PERSON WITH HISTORY. DEAL WITH IT.”
