Blanca didn't fail Yut lung like he did Ash? He did desert Ash but with Yut Lung the situation was different? First time Ash was 13 in the cluches of his abuser and then 19 and hunted down. Yut Lung upon Blanca meeting him was 18, free from his abusers, in a position of power, his freaking employer and unhinged. What do people expect from Blanca to do for Yut Lung here, be his therapist? Stay and keep servicing the toxic person and try to "fix him"? Yut Lung rejects friendships if people aren't acting like he wants them to anyway. And essentialy he looked at Blanca as his devoted underling more than anything. Blanca was honest with him, gave some good advice for once and proceeded to go help Ash finally, can't really blame him there. Blanca wronged him because he ruined Yut Lung's plans by refusing his awful orders which made him feel bad? Yut Lung's the one who keeps making others suffer, yet we're constantly supposed to feel bad for him? Because they stand up for themselves and their friends and leave him? Neither Blanca nor Sing or Eiji owe him anything, he's not a victim in relation to them.

Btw how can anyone throw a tantrum and whitewash Yut Lung partnering up with a pedo, preventing club cod from getting exposed in the media and not caring how thanks to this abuse will be going on, forcing Ash to go back to his rapist because Ash's a beast for him, what he did with Lao, Eiji and Sing, idk was he forced to murder his brothers wives and children who were likely victims, too or it doesn't count because he's an 18 years old? 

HC of Eiji and Yut Lung being besties is OOC for me, usually it entails Yut Lung being being a flamboyant alpha bitch and Eiji being the boring one who takes being deingrated with patient sighs and indulges him or them having girly sleepovers.

I also dislike the HC of Eiji taking responsibility for fixing/healing/saving Yut Lung? This HC stems from this view of Yut Lung as a vulnerable hurting woobie who didn't mean what he did and just needed a hug. And how he's like Ash so Eiji can do what he does for Ash. Yut Lung and Ash aren't the same. It's like saying Arthur and Ash are the same because they both killed people. Yut Lung choose his ridiculous cosplay as Big Baddie and didn’t care that what he did was horrific, he gloated about it. Didn’t have anyone who hunted him, wasn’t in a situation where he had to fight for his freedom after he killed his brothers but still went after people who literally didn’t do anything to him. See the difference?

First off Ash cared for Eiji, equally selflessly and despite what Blanca said didn't just use Eiji as an emotional crutch or treated him like a service. Second, Eiji and his friends are Yut Lung's victims. Are they not at least as vulnerable? The idea of Eiji coddling the person who despised him, ordered to have him/ash shoot/stabbed and made ppl he loves suffer showing no remorse is uncomfortable to me. Nobody should take it upon themselves to befriend their bully. Eiji's kind and empathetic but not a doormat, he stood up for himself and set boundaries. Everyone talks about Eiji's mental health and how he's not subservient but when it comes to Yut Lung we should wish for Eiji to do emotional labour for him, someone who's treated Eiji with scorn and put him down constantly? Be a comfort provider for someone who put a person he loves through hell? He doesn't exist to serve and cater to possible needs and well being of the person who acted abusive towards him and didn't even acknowledge it. Nobody should be expected to maintain a relationship, care and try to change someone who abused them even if it's because they're damaged. Abused isn’t even covering it here though, he didn't just stop on feeding his own ego proclaiming how he's better than everyone. As Yut Lung freed himself his goal became being this cartoon villain complete with deranged laughter and he ordered to kill both Eiji and Ash and his machinations ensured Eiji got shot and Ash got stabbed in turn. Funniest of it all is, everyone forgets about it just like almost all main characters forget that he even exists when not in direct presence while Yut Lung is obsessed about them. I don’t think Yut Lung is even on Eiji’s radar 99.9% of the time. He drones on and on how much of a failure Eiji is and yet you can’t think of more stereotypical loser than him considering nobody ever even spares him a thought.

Yut Lung should redeem himself by himself and I wish we stopped acting as if he didn't actually do anything ever or didn’t cause anything or what he did wasn't his fault, poor him. He isn't entitled to other characters he hurt making him feel good and becoming stepping stones to his possible recovery.

I get an impression everyone is busy fanon cherry picking and forget what characters actually did?

Even if you excuse Yut Lung's actions up till Shorter's death by saying he acted upon his brothers will (he was quite gleefully complicit tho), after that he eliminates his brothers and has all the power and choices he makes are all fully his. And he isn't a 16 year old by the time he's actively involved in forcing Ash to become Golzine's prisoner, he's approximately 18 when "hurting Ash's feewlings". Wonder if Ash wanted to make Yut Lung to go back to his abusers you'd also call it "hurting his feewlings". Last but not least, he murdered his brothers wives and their children who were completely innocent.

We can compare Yut Lung and Ash's decisions, motivations and circumstances and the result would be positively damning for Yut Lung. The only thing in common is that they were abused as kids but in the end came out vastly different and can't blame that entirely on Yut Lung supposedly having less of a support network than Ash (out of his own doing too). His ambition was literally being this grand evil overlord and drag everyone down to make sure others suffer and couldn’t understand how Ash would want to reject that path. Yut Lung is just a selfish and irritating character, he hurts people because of his creepy delusions, has no regrets, only self pity when his plans fall apart.

Remember that he was 18 not 10 when he willingly run to work with Golzine knowing and unbothered by Golzine’s line of business and was heavily involved in coercing Ash to go back to Golzine. Later at the party when the gang was breaking Ash out Yut Lung wanted to prevent it, then he sent out his thugs on a killing spree after everyone, not even caring at this point that Sing who showed him sympathy earlier could die too. And we're supposed to feel bad for him because everyone picked Ash then, were they supposed to stay and let themselves be used as servants and pawns on Yut Lung's stupid quest? I saw many posts saying Blanca indirectly caused Ash's death because he told Ash he will be always defined by his past lifestyle, what about Yut Lung who insisted on that too and who was the one to directly incite Lao and foster the conflict between him and Sing against Ash. 

 Hypocritical how it’s alright when fandom nonstop voices disgust over some people liking or explaining Blanca and affirms he is bad so everyone should condemn him but when it comes to Yut Lung it’s suddenly ohh you can’t judge morality of BF characters. Double standards much then? Blanca is (rightfully) hated because he made Ash go back to his abuser and maintained Ash is destined to be a glorified killer and should dump Eiji but Yut Lung did the same was even more nasty about it because you can argue Blanca did this thinking it would be better for Ash while Yut Lung did it solely for his own selfish delusions and cringy creepy obsession of Ash as a demon beast.

But when it comes to Yut Lung it’s never mentioned and when someone dares it's suddenly oh you can't judge good/bad of him and how dare you dislike him, he can't be held accountable for purposefully hurting others because he had trauma or all of this somehow wasn't his choice. With Blanca at least people don’t excuse things he did by pointing out his trauma or Ash's deeds but when it comes to Lao or Yut Lung who did shit things from malice it's like noo it was all defense/survival. At the point he got rid of his brothers he could have backed off, he was free unlike all the other characters, but he decided to suck up to Golzine and ruin it for everyone for the sake of his corny ideas.

yeah we're just going in circles. btw Lao is such a plot device as is Akira. And if you need your own characters to explain to your readers what is happening or what had happened instead of them being able to work it out for themselves from what they see happening on the pages then something is off.
