Perfect characters aren't usually compelling ones. Flawed characters, who struggle to do good (or who justify their actions) tend to be some of our favorites, because we see they are trying their best. "Write flawed characters" isn't great advice, though. We look at three characters from The Hunger Games, Neon Leviathan, and Haikyuu and explore how their character flaws function in the story.
