at Arnel’s change. Sure it ‘makes sense’ with the story (because ‘I said so’ logic) but from a writing standpoint it seems like her character is just being made more conventionally attractive for the sake of being the “right” love interest to Bjorn.
I loved how unique she was before, and the duality of being both a woman and physically imposing. She kicked ass. She still does (clearly), but the choice cheapens her character to do this to her, imo. It reasserts that female characters are accessories that still need to fit into the lookism box.

Don't worry, fans of the novel were outraged as well when Aynar lost her muscles, so the author eventually went back on his choice and Aynar got her muscles back. I haven't read the novel, so I don't know when she does, but she will eventually.









Plus, mentally isn't Hajin like 20s or 30s? while they're all high school kids. It wouldn’t be appropriate anyway or even in character. He already looks to them like they're his kids or creations.
This story is interesting otherwise but that shit is a big time waster.
