And that's the key: from your point of view. Of course, a lot of children feel
that the decisions and rules their parents enforce are "mean" does that make all
parents "evil"? Some children might agree, but many probably wouldn't. What
happens when your perspective changes and you finally see the true intent behind
such actions? Does the person still remain evil or do they somehow magically
become non-evil?

That seemed to be more of an annoyance to Keiichi than anything he would hate
her over. You'd think he'd almost come to expect such things considering his
circumstances and past experiences (indeed, he seems to cope with them well when
they occur). I don't recall Keiichi every specifically saying that Mara is evil
so I'd be hesitant to speculate.
