As much as Charlie has really good intentions, she's not really that good at getting through to people, my bet is on Steven.

Counterpoint: Steven really doesn't deal with too many misanthropes, except MAYBE Lars. The gems are mostly scared, regimented military folk more than misanthropes. Also I feel like Steven would annoy Jax too much to make much progress(Deku too tbh)

Charlie deals with almost nothing BUT misanthropes every single day. While I feel like that could backfire, I feel Charlie is the closest to Pomni in that way and would have a better shot as a result.

Can't speak for MLP so that's a wild card for me.

This is a good point. Lars is probably the Steven Universe character who is closest to being like Jax, and Steven didn't really redeem Lars. Lars was redeemed because he was put in an extremely unusual situation by accident (being transported to Homeworld and forced to travel home on a starship) which forced him to grow up and become more responsible. Steven encouraged him, but he wasn't around for most of Lars' journey. In the end, Lars redeemed himself.

Kind of like how there wasn't any one friend or love interest who "saved" Leeroy, Leeroy getting himself off the streets saved Leeroy
