She's a touchy subject for everyone, the author made her a polarizing figure and that tends to ignite quite a bit of discussion on her motives. We have her sadistic nature in stark contrast to her love for Tatsumi, who is her enemy. The authors want us to feel conflicted about her, and we do. It keeps the story interesting and it keeps us guessing. Though I am not an Esdeath x Tatsumi shipper, I understand completely the allure behind it, she's an interesting and multifaceted character with flaws(as opposed to the godlike powerful villain most other manga put out) and i'm extremely interested in seeing what she will do next.
