That's some... interesting screenwriting going on.

I dunno, I haven't read the books but dismissing complaints about that as just being "butthurt", especially accusing the director of that seems kinda weird. Yatori owns bones and imo absolutely should be the main heroine (not a love interest, tho) so I'm honestly not complaining about this. Having opposite-gendered main characters that have a deep, platonic bond without any romance isn't the most common thing in anime, and the relationship between Yatori and Ikta is honestly most of what kept my interesting in the show up to this point.

Even discounting all that, choosing to elaborate early on a prominent character's backstory that otherwise wouldn't be touched on doesn't seem like a bad decision at all.
