 * 2) She's also brave, she's been knowing to fight a lot of creatures as evidenced in her debut where she is first seen wrestling a giant clam who tries to eat her. Plus, she's also smart like in the episode SpongeBob, Sandy and the Worm she knows how to prevent SpongeBob and her from getting killed by the Alaskan Bull Worm.
 * 3) She always tries to protect her friends from dangerous things. She also tried teaching Mr. Krabs a lesson for sending SpongeBob to a dangerous mission just so that he can go shopping.
 * 4) Plankton shared a good chemistry with her in Perfect Chemistry, one of a few good episodes from even the dark age of the show.
 * 5) Her heartwarming moments with SpongeBob again, can give some bad episodes a redeeming quality like Truth or Square due to the wedding scene, even though it was meant to be a play.
 * 6) She's a tomboy so she is different from all the other female characters from SpongeBob SquarePants.
 * 7) This face that she made in Prehibernation Week is cute and funny at the same time. Plus, it became a great internet meme as well.
 * 8) Back to the episode SpongeBob, Sandy and the Worm, when she regretted being self-centered and finally learned from her mistakes to SpongeBob.
 * 9) She is amazingly voiced by Carolyn Lawrence, who does an unforgettable performance.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) She does have some mean-spirited moments, such as torturing SpongeBob in Prehibernation Week, just because she's getting ready for "hibernation" as well as joining the rest of the recently-shrunken Bikini Bottom civilians in beating up SpongeBob's organs in Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy IV, despite being one of the latter's closest friends and that she would never really do that to him.
 * 2) Although she has a nice singing voice, her singing in Atlantis SquarePantis is pretty bad.
 * 3) She can be offended over small things like when people insulted Texas as an example.
 * 4) Though strong, she can be rather aggressive towards those who tick her off.
 * 5) Her constant comparative similes in her grammar may annoy some.
 * 6) Her character design in the spin-off (Kamp Koral) looks ugly. Also, her braces can be easily disturbing.
 * 7) She became the quickest main character to get flanderized in Seasons 5-8, where she became a lot more obsessed with science, even more so than in Season 4, up to the point where she's become a bland, one-dimensional and neurotic science geek with no interesting personality whatsoever. While she did have an interest in science in the first four seasons, it wasn't her defining trait back then. however, she still managed to be likable due to her not being flanderized as a jerk.
 * 8) *Though she did redeem herself in Season 9 and got her full personality back.
