You know, one thing i like about Mulan is how Yao, Ling and Chien Po donāt really seem to care about the fact that Mulan is a girl.
I mean, when they find out, they are visibly perplexed
But even so, they rush and try to help her when sheās about to get killed
After this, they all seem quite depressed about having to leave her behind (and when Shang ignores her)
And when she shows up and takes action, they gladly follow her lead
And they even rock some crossdressing, like she did
(btw they just missed a great opportunity to make Shang crossdress here, shame on you movie)
Honestly, i just think this needs more appreciation. Because to them, Mulan didnāt have to prove herself again,Ā just because she is a girl. She already earned their friendship and respect when she was āPingā, and that was enough.
