Ella and Mc are childhood friends. He promised to protect her, she gave him the means to protect her and guided him throughout the story and now even after her death. After she got her powers, she sought you out and chose you specifically.You're right about all the LI's being girlfriend material. I don't think anyone can reasonably argue against that. They all have a genuine devotion to, and appreciation for, the MC; which is the #1 quality of any potential GF (or BF).
IMO, Alice is a cut above everyone else do to the effort that she puts in. She can't cook, but she tries. She's admittedly out of her element when it comes to relationships, so she seeks out advise and guidance from friends (Tess) and magazines. When the two of them are on night watch duty in the cave in the Monster World, she encourages the MC to download his worries and burdens onto her. That he doesn't have to carry it alone. She feels its her duty as his GF to help him carry that emotional weight.
The fact that she's a literal mob boss makes her devotion to the MC feel that much grander than the other LI's. She has all the wealth and power she can handle, yet being a good GF to the MC matters to her. Him being pleased with her matters to her. Their relationship is something that she puts a great deal of thought and effort into.
Liz is literally fighting through her mental blocks, depression, emotionlessness, and general lack of self worth because you want to be with her and fought for her. Both Amber and Liz wanted to become superheros because they were worried your connections with them were a burdon. They trained profusely with Micheal because of it. Amber despite having literal PTSD after what Tanos did and emotional distress over losing her sister, still remembers to celebrate your birthday.
Alice will have more of these moments just because she was the first to be part of the story. And she has her own moments as you pointed out. The rest not so much, as they still aren't really part of the main group. But im sure we they will get just as much time in the sequel.
Like its fine to prefer Alice over the others, but to say she's objectively willing to put in more effort is wrong for Liz, Amber and Ella imo. And the rest of the LI's just don't have enough screentime for us to know.
