Kudos to an incredible mature and excellent analysis. Your explanation actually made me feel a lot better about Weiss, although the first impression, even though I've already known about the plot beforehand, was downright shocking. I really don't want to see my own face when I watched that scene unfold in Starbucks.

The actual problem I have with her was that the plot and character was done a million times before whether it be among books, TV dramas, animes, and even Visual Novels. I could practically deduce her journey and growth all the way from the beginning till the end, and that was something I'd prefer to avoid whenever possible.

And while I completely understand that when some people freak out they could not stop, note that she was shaking the nitroglycerine bottle herself harder than a can of coke, not to mention that these are actually 'Dust' bottles and wasn't actually that dangerous (the explosion didn't even singe her hair). The complete lack of composure for such a trivial incident despite (assuming) having a harsh time of discipline training as the heiress, plus the almost gangster-like near-frothing bitch talk made me think her more like a yakuza's daughter than anything else.

... Actually she could actually be one. Not a yakuza, but something similar.
