the villainization of our beloved agatha
is the title a bit dramatic? sure. do i care? no.
agatha is villainized any time she decides to do something herself or even to try and help tedros accomplish his missions. other characters berate her when she tries to help him because a princess should stay back, and sometimes a prince has to do what he has to do. agatha was berated because she told rhian to kill the snake when tedros would have DIED doing it. why was she villainized in the story for that? it was the RIGHT CALL!
other characters take incredible measures to be sure that agatha is out of the game, including tedros, who literally locked her in her room so she wouldnā€™t have to fight. for a book series that loves to champion its girl power, the amount of times it sidelines one of its main characters in favor of her (in my opinion) less interesting love interest is ridiculous.

also, the villainization of poc characters??
nicola: portrayed as kind of an annoying smartass (at least at first) and is completely forgotten about later in the books
ravan: literally evil
,,,and i cant think of any others. the massive lack of poc representation is an issue in and of itself and the very few (only two i think??) characters of color aren't portrayed very well
(maybe theres more than just ravan and nicola but i literally cant remember lmao)
exactly!!! what i meant by racial stereotypes!
nicola is a big example of this. soman even admitted he wrote her to be disliked by the fandom for getting in between sophie and hort which is offensive since sheā€™s like,,, the only black female character with a noticeable role in the story.
he writes her to always speak her mind which is a good attribute but is perceived as annoying and bossy and even tedros makes a comment about nicola acting like a know-it-all. sheā€™s clearly not meant to be liked and i donā€™t know why soman would write her this way. iā€™m glad she speaks her mind but this should be portrayed in a positive and empowering light not as an annoying trait.
her whole character in the story revolved around hort (a white boy) who ended up with a white girl anyways :/ and this is brushed off asĀ ā€œoh donā€™t worry nicola youā€™re pretty too hort would never judge your appearance youā€™re still beautiful girl <3ā€³ she gets reassured by AGATHA a white girl who completely misses the point and prattles on about her own life story and being seen as inferior for not being pretty which is uh... weā€™ll get to that another time.
this whole part of the story came off as so racist to me because here we have nicola wondering if sheā€™s not good enough because her ex emotionally cheated on her through their entire relationship for a white girl who treated him terribly when nicola treated him well. sheā€™s doubting her self worth because of her skin color and smarts and also not being blonde, white, airheaded (well we know sheā€™s actually not dumb but letā€™s be honest she comes off that way and even tries to). this is clearly a racial matter but gets dumbed down to appearance and vanity. sit down soman chainani. you as a poc should know better than this.
yeah and she gets thrown off to the side with a rebound so fans donā€™t get mad. after being hinted at that she had a huge part to play in this arc and really was just there to bring hort and sophie the white couple closer by being a disruption. okay then very amazing.
besides that, yeah the poc evers i see are nicholas and nicola (same name! ahahahaha very funny soman), reena, and kiko and nicola is villainized and kiko is just... written terribly. i will get to her another time.
ravan is okay imo cause soman wanted a character based off ravana, his favorite villain from the ramayana - hindu mythology. and heā€™s balanced out by reena being a south asian ever.
gosh the whole nicola thing riles me up so much a post on her will definitely be coming soon.
