Hmm... maybe. But a lot of the time, the fanfics don't bring her back to life to fit the story-- in fact, they fit a story, just to bring her back to life. That just destroys her whole purpose of dying, you know? Its really just to create a happy ending, for her, while trying to override the original plot itself. And in most cases, good things come to an end. Which is why there are, say, more FFX fans than FFX-2. And "happy-happy" sequel just... destroyed it.

Ginny seems to be a little girl, really, who accidentally sets up most of the plot in the second book, etc. Other than that, you don't see her falling in love with other characters/ villians, she doesn't have special abilities (that no one else has, anyways...) and she isn't all /that/ pretty. Just little Ginny, with a crush on Harry~

Its not just how ethereal Mary Sues are, but also how cliched they appear in stories. Really, anyone can write a Sue fic, the thing is, can anyone write a fic with an OC that's somewhat include romance, without the characters getting a little too Sue-like?

I have hope for the humanity! >xD And I've seen some pieced together really well. ^__^
