#yona has moral plot armor

[sokkawordbender]

Akatsuki No yona

Ch 267 my honest thoughts, I'm going to be very harsh and critical.

look away fellas if you think yona is a victim and are willing to defend her, also think Hak is hot stuff. Sorry I'm allergic to such people, had to put in a disclaimer.

I was not going to read it BC I knew I would be rage baited. But I read and I got baited and I am raged.

Towards my future, so the fate of country and everything's about her lineage was all hyped up all the way to the last volume, ended up being about her future? I'm not surprised. Please, why bring her into monarchy and play her in front lines when she is going to think only about herself. Not once did she think, oh no my country is going to perish because of my existence and actions.

Thinking of her companions where she resides alone? Highly Debatable. She is not alone neither in heaven nor on earth. She always has charmed dogs who mindlessly follow her like she is entitled with their loyalty as her birth right. Even when she is in her final showdown and what's supposed to be hell and be the final challenge for her, she is lying on a bed of flowers

OK first of all as much as I wanted the reunion this was not how I expected. Just the way they are shielding her ughhh.... Bish please nothing is gonna happen to her, she is already protected.

When she was swallowed by the swarm of those flowers, I was genuinely expecting her to confront the corrupted dragons ALONE. But no her dogs are already following her with an invisible leash. I'm starting hate anyone who now shields her. Everyone is "I'll do anything for yona dear". Core.

Zeno looks dead on the inside(poor baby).

Yona...he wasn't protecting shit. He was ....just watching.

Also, I was awaiting yellow dragon's presence and his role. Turns out, it was just to be their convenient ride from heaven to earth and be the OP ally against corrupted dragons. So this was the only reason for yellow dragon to exist outside the heavens? Just be convenient plot armor to help her give a piggy ride? And are there only five dragons in heaven?

Once again yona is not facing the ultimatum with her own efforts. She is whining crying, begging and showing her desperation. I know ... I understand... After all what can a person do against these beings, but her getting a convenient way out is always off putting. I was hoping her to be helpless in the hellhole for a while.

How is it right? She is basically rawdogging.

They are giving me empty headed people with no thoughts of their own and no perspective. They are here for filling convenient plot holes whenever FL needs it and we are here for you to sacrifice cuz we know how to bear pain instead of you. They basically filler characters now.

Why? Why??? I wonder.

Also, jaeha's leg and shinah's eyes were pretty to me and they didn't deserve that. Just remembering the generational trauma and pain that dragon warriors suffered, Indeed I wonder why?

I'm starting to hate when jaeha calls her yona dear because its now just empty character style. No longer it is a title of adoration to me.

This was interesting to me because what was earth like before the dragons descended. Were humans a wild specie? Lol. Did they really have no sense of living and were they savages to the point that a dragon had to be descended in human for to BLESS them with divinity so that they become 'more human'? And by that logic, will common sense of living with peace and morality disappear and wars continue if dragons were to disappear? What a joke.

Humans have and will continue to flourish the earth. It has always been power of people. In these 2k years that zeno suffered, dragons didn't do shit. Human civilization thrived on its own.

Seeee. She isn't alone. And after reading this I feel sorry for the dragons to a certain amount because maybe the love they feel must be immense considering they were immortal beings and it affected them greatly that red dragon sort of abandoned them for lesser beings.

Her monologue is very funny, gurl don't tell us things we already know. She basically said milk is white. I was at least expecting her to understand their root cause of insanity and how much they wanted red dragon to be with them after seeing that memory but instead she just says"ah.. So This is the memory" idk maybe she is viewing the memories as a third person and not her own?

Her, as a princess of the nation (bc she kept emphasizing on her self as the daughter of KIng Il and the kingdom as the country of her father) wishes for her reason of existence as this? Did somewhere along the way the prophecy and the whole fiasco got into her head and this persona of master of dragons became more important than the reason of going against Soowon? She was so hell bent on understanding why Soowon wanted to rule the country like so and blah blah as if she cared about people in earnest. And when the revelation came to her, there was no significant response either. Like it just happened. Reading Yonhi's diary and truth about her father didn't even make her flinch. Its just that she understands him a little better.

This right here is what she considers about in earnest. This is her when she truly is desperate. She wasn't this desperate for her people. I still think her role in politics was played the worst way possible and her aura max portrayal was just cringe and she didn't deserve those screen panels during the war.

So, ruining the state of equilibrium and shoving country into darkness at the expense of her going back to earth did not stop her or even made her think once, but the thought of harming Hak did? She looks horrified at the thought. But was not horrified when the dragons said that if she goes back the country would plunge into darkness???? She didn't give a second thought before going headfirst into earth even when she knew what would happen to the country and the people. Maybe she considered her self a magical girl who if went into darkness, the darkness would disappear by her OPness and problem solved. At these moments, I remember what Soowon said, "any country that values wellbeing of single person above the wellbeing of the nation is bound to fall"

The way she is reaching out, I swear if she comes out of that crest portal thingy right into Hak's arm, I'd be pissed. Because yay another damsel moment. I'm starting to hate their interactions. And if Soowon ended up pining, or ended up being sacrificed or ended up being overshadowed infront of the GREATNESS OF YONA.... I'll burn all the copies. The blind following these people have for religion and its embodiment is crazy.

Also, Soowon you look gorgeous in that panel at the end. That shirt is *kiss*

1. Yona of the Dawn/Akatsuki no Yona

This series has to be my favorite by far. It's the only series I have ever watched/read that made me want to write. Before this, I'd always had ideas for other series, but I never acted on them. There's something so powerful about this work that transcends beyond its labeled tropes of "reverse harem" or "shoujo". It hits on important social issues that are still active in today's society. It also questions morality and the fine grey line between what is right and what is wrong. Most importantly, it has a female lead who's not the "damsel in distress". She will murder you if she must, and without the help of her OP entourage.

2. Fairy Tail/Fairy Tail: 100 Year Quest

I really don't care what the internet says about this series. It will always be in my top 5 favorites of all time. This was the first shounen series I ever watched/read. It was a huge chunk of my childhood and I grew up with these characters. It was also the only the series my siblings and I followed together. A lot of people complain about the overuse of "plot armor" and the "power of friendship", but I don't care. Yes, none of my favorite characters die, but there are so many real and emotional scenes and complete insanity of trauma these characters go through. I will keep following this series as long as they keep writing it 👆🏻

Special to me: Fruits Basket

The original Fruits Basket anime will always hold a special place in my heart, because it was the first anime I ever watched. It was the beginning of my journey. I wasn't into manga at the time, so I never knew it wasn't accurate to the source material. The new one is amazing, don't get me wrong, but there's something about that old 90s style anime that brings me back to my childhood and makes me all nostalgic on the inside.

Post your top 2 anime/manga, and 1 that is special to you:

1. Inu x Boku SS

When I first watched this.. I'm not sure I had ever watched sub, only dub, cuz I was lazy, but this was so unbelievably good that I HAD to push through. I'm in love with every single character, plot point, joke, and anything that happened in this story. I believe it's a true masterpiece. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Cocoa Fujiwara, may you rest in peace ❤️

2. Sleepy Princess in The Demon Castle

I saw this one day featured on my Funimation app. It just drew me in. The title was a little off-putting because at the time I related demons as satanic... Which they initially are haha 😅 BUT Kagiji Kumanomata brought her version of "demons" to a new light. She made me love her version of demons. They are vulnerable, caring and giving and sweet. I also didn't think based on the plot given she could make more than 1 or 2 chapters... Yet here we are with over 300 chapters so far!! And every single one surprises me! Every single one makes me literally laugh out loud!! Ahh... This author/illustrator is just a genius!!! And all of the thought she puts into each and every character and their relationships with other characters and their backgrounds and. And Sya HATING the guy who is labeled as her "hero" who is meant to rescue her??? And her definitely being able to leave the Demon Castle multiple times but she continues to choose to go back?? And she befriends all of the demons??? IT'S JUST INSANELY GENIUS.

Special to me: Chobits

Chobits hits home with me -- the journey and struggle to find the "someone just for me". It gives me comfort to watch. I admit it is really odd at first, but if you know the story and watch it again, it's much more.. enjoyable? Understandable? Anyways... I see myself as Chi as well... It's just really important to me.
