You have to hand to Coco, she tried to carry Neku and Beat with a big-o Noise in hope that he could Save Shinjuku and most of all, Tsugumi. Her shooting Neku was more desperate act.
Oh I know that now, or, well, I more or less did. I still joke a lot about Coco being an evil trigger-happy goblin who practically lives to shoot Neku, but that's just more of me carrying on the after-effects of my intial reaction to her doing that.
In other words, I'm well aware that she's actually a goodie who's just willing to go to extreme measures rather than a bloodthirsty monster, but I have a lot of fun carrying on those jokes. Jokes that she kind of earns even now, given her personality.
Rest assured, I actually quite like having her around as an odd and slightly unpredictable ally. She has a fun dynamic with most characters that I've often said I'd like to see explored more. But she still shot Neku and left many a fan, myself included, under the impression for a while that she was just someone who sought to undo his happy ending, even if there was definitely more to the story. Knowing that story is all well and good, but retaining a long memory for that perception of her is, at the very least, entertaining.
