Or it wasn't showed at the least. You got to admit, though, it would make much more sense than her just randomly developing Newtype powers and an evil bone. Probably doesn't make it better, though. Still, saying Gable ever had a sense of ethics or responsibility is saying something. Or I could only know some of his character.
Oh, Yazan is bad, at but Katejina, is really sadistic. Yazan at least seemed to kind of care about Ramsus and Dunkel. Katejina literally orders her subordinates to attempt to take out the Victory 2 with nothing but bazookas while wearing bikinis claiming it will "distract Uso" and work. As expected, this fails, with Uso easily killing them, and not really having any reaction other than "Why would you try this?". Katejina is what would happen if Yazan Gable and Haman Karn had a daughter that inherited all of their worst qualities.
Also, Newtypes developing their powers during war, especially in space is pretty much the standard for UC. Most of the main Newtypes (Kamille, Amuro, Char, Judau, Sayla, Kai) don't develop powers until they begin fighting. Hell, Char wasn't even sure he was going to be able to use the Zeong to its full capabilities when it was given to him, because he still wasn't 100% convinced he was a Newtype.
Also, Kuruni, I agree that Katejina was in love with Chronicle, but it was still kind of a deranged love, like the Joker being in love with Harley Quinn. She loves him because yes, he is her prince charming, and he will do anything for her, and she will abuse that to the end. She was clearly manipulating him, especially in the final battle. She would never be able to maintain that kind of control over Uso, since he cares about his colleagues, and his feelings for Shakti eventually outweigh whatever he feels for Katejina. Katejina derived a sick pleasure in having men fight over her, as we see in the final battle. She never actually directly helps Chronicle, even though she clearly wants him to kill Uso, but only kills anybody who tries to interfere. However, when this backfires, she goes berserk, and attempts to kill Uso, even after promising herself to him if he won.
