As stated in my edit reason, my issue with the entry is the fandom civil war aspect of BBC, I\'m certainly not objecting to him being the most contentious character in the show, but half the entry just isn\'t relevant to BBC because it\'s not being fought over to BBC levels -- mostly, it\'s not fought over at all. I\'ll explain that:

Introduced as a terrorist who is willing to kill humans, he is described early on by Blake as warrior for Faunus equality who fell from hero to monster so gradually, his violent actions initially could be explained away as \\\"accidents\\\". However, from the moment he confronts Blake at the end of Volume 3, he\\\'s portrayed as an obsessive PyschoExBoyfriend who never had any interest in equality, was always out to spite humanity for the pain he\\\'s suffered, and is willing to abandon everything he\\\'s worked for just to make Blake pay for leaving him. The fandom tends to split into a camp that feels there were signs of this all along and a camp that feels this came out of the blue, thus derailing the character from what was originally perceived to have been the show\\\'s best candidate for a nuanced exploration of minority rights.

The entry eventually gets around to the problem (in a throw-away parenthesis) that some fans thought Adam was going to be portrayed in one fashion and felt the show did a complete 180 on his character versus those fans who feel the signs were all there from the beginning. However, both sides tend to agree that he was handled badly. It\'s therefore a \'derailed character\' versus \'consistently portrayed\' debate, and there is a widespread split in the fandom over that. That\'s the bit I can see being a BBC, the rest of the entry, however? Not a BBC issue.
