Slightly inspired by @Blooming_Lotus thread. What's your biggest plot nitpick?
I am sure SIU knows what he is doing, but I think it would cool to hear some random or completely irrelevant plot threads that stand out as illogical or bizarre. I'll start.
1)
I realize translation's may be a little clunky; that goes for webtoon and fan translations but recently Holan stated that he planned to betray Traumerei from the start of the war. This is the same Holan that swore revenge on Po Bidau's forces after Pudidy and Perseus death, and went on a vendetta against everyone he perceived to be loyal/related to the po bidau family (matte, yuri and tiara). He also attacked bam and said he was the cause of this war. Sounds like someone passionate about the lo po bia family, and what's the lo po bia family without Traumerei? These actions dont add up with someone who intended to betray Traumerei all along. His recent tirade comes of as SIU using him as an easy way to let Traumerei know that Kirin betrayed him. He was hyped up as the most talented member of the family only to then lose every fight he has taken part in. I'm aware that in the grand scheme of things he wasn't a major character, but as stated this is a thread for inconsequential nitpicks
2)
Kirin's plot to be family head.
Kirin wants his father to die, and to take over from him as Family Head. That's reasonable, Traumerei is a loathsome person and Kirin really would be next in the line to rule. But that's the sticking point, who is he going to rule? In trying to take over the family's reign, Kirin in Lobadon's words has 'sold out the branch heads to the po bidau' family. If all goes to plan all of these branch heads are going to die. In addition to this, the former branch heads he painstakingly recruited..... they have been abandoned too. Im sure there are a few others who haven't been directly affected, such as Whitegarment Widow, and whoever else he has been in contact with over the pocket. But when it all ends, if in his favor, who is he going to rule over? How will they stand up to the other families? Has he thought beyond his father's death?

The world of darkness
So after leaving the nest the following were grouped together: Yu Hansung, Yama, Doom, Yasratcha, Dowon & Karaka.
After all the shenanigans with fighting the tamer, yas, hansung, dowon and karaka went into karaka's heart, presumably to hide their presence. As soon as Lobadon confronted yasratcha he is magically no longer there and able to join in, hansung hasn't been seen since, and karaka was able to meet up with ha jinsung and confront dumas and the book guy miles away. if karaka's heart allows for such fast and far teleportation, why wasn't this used immediately after the warp, or better yet before the warp?
What are yours?
