The pain that “taints her” is what earns her the title Rose Bride- a bad, venomous, malicious woman. Female suffering’s a problem not because what’s been done to Anthy but because Anthy isn’t being a victim in a way people expect her to be.

It should be clear the witch and the Rose Bride are almost synonymous, I say almost cause the Rose Bride is always a vilified witch but a witch doesn’t necessarily embody all the traits of the rose bride. Besides Anthy being vilified she'd been sexually abused by Akio.
