I like this series a lot, and I'm glad we're getting progress. I don't find it confusing at all. As Risako made clear, Reichii meant well, marrying Kaoru to take care of her. Maybe not a good idea but a well-meant one, and Kaoru did need some sort of help at the time; IIRC she was losing...

Not necessarily. I don't think we know what Kouka thinks about queens regnant, especially with a close male relative (first cousin, from the elder line!) handy. Or if a married queen continues to be in charge. Even if Yona is the direct heir, he could marry her -- no objection from Yona --...

I liked your post, Crystal. :)

"the things he’s done wasn’t THAT bad, and with some context all would be forgiven. Like no, that’s not how that works and I’ll be a bit surprised if Yona forgives him after knowing all the info." It was bad for Yona (in the short term; she's stronger now) and good for the country. Tolerating...

"(though didn't he tell Yona it was purely out of revenge back in the beginning?)." Could have been simplifying, giving an easy to understand reason, or not trying to justify himself to someone he just betrayed. "Your father was a shitty king" would be unbelievable to Yona at the time, and...

Quite probably not. People are really good at rationalizing in defense of their self-esteem and self-interest. Plus even if the gods/dragons exist, not trusting in them or relying on them is part of the Yu-hon faction ideology, which isn't that irrational; the dragons didn't stick around for...

"I have no idea what the author is trying to do with Soo-won anymore... other than the whole 'cycle of vengeance' theme i feel like there's been a lot of backtracking and trying to make him more sympathetic or something, with the whole terminal illness and insinuating that he and his father...

Seems pretty clear that Il did indeed kill his brother, in revenge for his wife's death. And Soo-won killed Il, in revenge for his father's death... or maybe because he thought Il was lame and he needed to take over. Yona probably won't avenge her father, because she's a pure-hearted anime...

If you're hiding in plain sight, maybe change your name?

Man, the differences between this and the other translation are really something.
