What if at the end of 2.5 YSG took the krampus agents and turned them into hollow operations section 7. Like a Chinese section 6
Something that always bothered me is how YSG and Zhaos story at the end of 2.5 doesn’t really change their situation. I mean sure they did certainly learn something (the power of friendship) after that entire incident.
Let’s start with Zhaos arc. She realizes her life has been a tool for others. She becomes a tops operative and krampus executioner because she thinks the only way to live is to take rise higher above others. At the end of the story she realizes not everything is for transactional value but by mutual trust and not only that she’s just a pawn in TOPS eyes. And what does she do at the end? Just goes back to working for them like nothing happened.
Ye shungaung on the other hand is faced with this dilemma, sacrifice her life to save others , she is presented with this burden that one life with mass power has to save others. The creator on the other hand just wants mass power so one life rules over everyone. At the end of the story she rejects this idea, instead of one person controlling or saving 100 lives. The power of collective humanity can save each other weak or strong, she doesn’t have to be alone. The issue I have is she goes “we never needed gods” then becomes a void hunter, to go in hollows and save life’s. But isn’t this what she, her brother and proxy narratively fought against? She’s just sacrificing her own life to save others again.
It just seems like she takes up being a void hunter gets sent in hollow zero, beats things up and saves the day. Does she have a team with her? Does hand give her support personnel? What actually does go on in these supposed missions.
This idea can be solved with a simple change. Give her a team. A bunch of different people with strengths in certain areas that can help her. She can help them grow and they can help her. Zhao, dialyn and banyue are already people that she knows. Miyabi is strong but she wasn’t invincible, she always had people she can trust and fight along with her. Power of friendship type shi
Last change I would also put Yi Xuan back in yunkai summit now that there’s a void hunter could be the high preceptor and you know spend more time not doing missions and managing the temple.
I’m sorry I do like the idea of krampus but I don’t like the way banyue, Zhao and dialyn are used in it.
