Battle Merlin

UuUuUuUuUuUuUuGh!!! Stop making Merlin a battlemage! He's the quintessential, archetypal Wizard! It's THE SAME EXACT THING as the Mary Sue trope from every woke movie! It's the exact same thing! Merlin is a strong, independent, self-actualized wahmen now. He's Rey from Star wars. I mean, shit, you might as well make him black. Or ACTUALLY A WOMEN. Which wouldn't even be original at this point because 7 Deadly Sins already had female Merlin. But THEY did it RIGHT. The entire show revolved around people having some type on magic but Chick Merlin was STILL the MOST WIZARD-LIKE CHARACTER IN THE SHOW. So, it doesn't matter that she's a gender swap because at least she still embodies the high INT wizard/scholar archetype. She's impossibly old. She isn't out there swordfighting people. She's a wizard. Be a wizard!

Hym "Jesus-fucking-Christ another Goddamn battle Merlin... He isn't a battle mage! Changing gender on a character is bad to you... Changing the RACE of a character is bad to you... But changing THE CHARACTER ARCHETYPE of the QUINTESSENTIAL WIZARD OF ALL MEDIEVAL LORE and it's just 'fine' to you? Yeah, sure, whatever. Why don't you just make a movie about Bill Maher and have him be a devout Catholic? Cultureless swine. So what do all of the other guys do in the show? Swordfight except WITHOUT THE MAGIC? What's the point of them?"

An amazing person who is very caring and some one you should never give up once they come into your life. If they leave it'll be a mistake and regret.
