    I absolutely adore how they focused on her character development more then the romance. To show her as a relatable character with hopes and dreams (ones she is trying to rebuild) first was such a bold and unusual move that payed off. And the romance bit?? They hit just the right notes to show that there was progress off screen. Those notes made it too believable when Jasper and Alva ended up as a happy, dorky couple. I loved this character. She perfectly played her role as the supporting character that was changed by Jasper's actions and helped Jasper change too.

    Yeah. In a lesser film, she would have been just a token love interest, yet they really let her develop as a character. She started as bitter and world- weary, doing what she can just to leave; Then over time, she gradually regains her passion for teaching, and becomes a real force for good in her own light, aiding both the heroes (i.e. In the climax, learning about the bad guys' plot in time to warn Klaus) and the community as a whole (Her teaching the kids not just to write so they can write letters to Klaus, but a full variety of other subjects as well). And, as you said, we saw just enough of her budding romance with Jesper to know that it was happening.

    I love how Alva develops this hard exterior and the instant kids start begging her to learn more, she immediately gets bright eyed and sheds that shell. She's a teacher at heart

    its strange as an artist myself, I've done alot of fanart of Alva....gonna be cosplaying her in June, I love her character. I recently realized I enjoy doing necropsies, I always wanted to be a teacher, I love entertaining children, and I had a bad spell for about half my life, I wonder if thats why Alva appeals to me so deeply. Thank you for bringing this character to life, she means alot to me.

    To be honest I think this has to do with the fact that there are so few women characters in movies, tv, etc. who get to be disagreeable or bitter some of the time, while still intended to be liked by the audience - so when one appears, people tend to connect them to other female characters who are also written that way, even though they might otherwise have little in common.

    I absolutely adore this movie, but to be honest I'm almost sad that they even added romance into this, she's an interesting character and definitely had a wonderful charm, but I feel like she would have benefited more from not being a love interest, she already stood out on her own

    When Alva was developping herself as an independant character during the movie, I prayed for them not to make her the love interest of Jesper. Oops, too bad. Still a better character than a lot of female ones we can see out there tho !

    Honestly, there's just waaay more proof in the visuals, writing and character acting to show that Klaus & Jesper were a developed couple than what there was for Alva. Alva had a good character arc but she was nowhere close to the intimacy that Klaus & Jesper managed to reach. Klaus literally tells Jesper that him *being there* made his life better, while Alva says that Jesper made *the town* a better place to live. Is it more romantic that Jesper changed Klaus' *character* or is it more romantic that Jesper simply changed the *circumstances* that Alva lived in?
