I'm pretty sure /u/Anti_Spedicy is talking about a common thing that happens with main characters: they often are seen as less interesting than side-characters. Another example of this is Black Lagoon, also mentioned in this thread.

This is a common side-effect of presenting a main character as rational and balanced for the audience to be able to insert themselves. They end up less of a character and more of a narrative tool to tell the stories of those around them without being completely detached from the narrative.

Writing a story about the main character where they are truly the center of the story requires significant focus, and making interesting side-characters that have their own stories and not just play a role is a challenge. One way to do this is separation, which TADC doesn't have the luxury of.

I mean they tell jax's story fine enough do they not? They're ok breaking off to put him in the driver's seat. The show could have in my opinion some moments where we get to see her arc from jax's perspective

Oh there's nothing wrong with it, especially if it's intentionally written that way (like Black Lagoon). I haven't watched enough of TADC but that could absolutely be the case.

The best part of writing is how many different ways there are to tell stories.

Well that's all I want, especially because she's my favorite character in the show
