It Really Felt Like Something Was Missing With Yor - Tumblr Posts

3 years ago

This feels like the beginning of another great Yor-centric arc that connects a little more closely to the main plot. 😊

I remember reading before the cruise ship arc and based on the first couple of chapters had some expectations for Yor that fell flat somewhat as the series continued and found her to be the weakest of the 3 main characters. All 3 of the Forgers are my favorite characters in the series, but like I said, I found Yor to be the weakest character-wise of the 3.

But when I got the cruise ship arc, I loved her character a lot more and found her to be more wonderfully developed.

Just to be clear I also like/appreciated all the smaller moments beforehand that focused on Yor. I don’t mean to say that her character stayed exactly the same from her introduction chapter all the way until the cruise ship arc, anyone who has read the series can understand that, all the artful character display and development that has been happening for the main cast.

The best thing about this series is how the characters are all nuanced and don’t just fit neatly in some silly trope and that these characters are quite substantial in their own right. Some characters from the side cast I was hoping to find a little more of, but I am hoping that proper exploration and development is found in future chapters.

mission 65 is easily one of the best chapters so far, and i'm so, so glad that yor is getting the recognition and character development she deserves.

i'm all for the goofy faces and drunken shenanigans but i constantly felt like yor was always left out whilst loid and anya and even bond got to do a bunch of cool shit and be developed. the cruise ship arc was a great first step but i really hope we get to see yor come into her own, in earnest, with this newfound support network.

i really hope this sticks, because my god does yor deserve a series of connections that don't revolve around her being super strong (anya & yuri) and perfect (loid) ((or what yor thinks is required of her)).
