User blog comment:TDA15/Jasmine isn't that interesting of a character/@comment-24971793-20140526211410

We're all in anticipation to know who the unsuspected antagonist is gonna be and if there will be an LGBT character.

The "hype" around Jasmine in particular is because we know so little about her she might fit these two boxes. So nobody is really invested in Jasmine (nobody cares about how she's gonna be like as a character at this point) we're just looking for possible antagonists and gays.
