Mango TV is also known for having horrible subs 😅 People can try going the route of asking iqiyi/viki to add it in their region although I don't know if they have a form like with netflix. I just think some of these sites don't know people want to watch these shows. Even in my country, period/wuxia/xianxia don't get as popular sa modern setting dramas.
Now that I've come to terms with LTG's irredeemable obsessive ass (really boy enuf of this!), I can process more highlights of eps 25-26
Really proud of YY's scenes. The way she handled the Wu emperor. The way she talked to NYZ, her logical thinking and how she values the lives of the 6RH troops. That heartfelt turned cute conversation with YL. Now she's lobbying the Wu ministers to help her with their cause. She's still scared. She still has a lot of uncertainties. But faced with a challenge, she steps up.
RRY forced to face the truth about the Empress' death. Sometimes RRY needs that very big smack before accepting the reality like how she had to see NYZ near death to come to terms with how she feels. But at least she doesn't go off like a loose cannon like LTG. She always passes through it with better insight.
NYZ taking that ice bath to cool down RRY's fever. He's really too caring. And then the way he fed her ginseng soup and wiped her lips. How dare he think he turned cold-hearted in any way? Then making RRY dinner without inquiring about what she did. Then he takes her to the secret files vault. Helping her with her revenge even though he's not totally involving himself in it (just the opposite of what RRY told LTG how he never thought of avenging the Empress for her).
There's a whole of of things happening without the importance getting blurred or issues getting miraculously fixed. AJTL continues to excite and engage.
. . . But god I want to torture LTG for daring to attack our precious YY! Want to hold him by his ear and have him kneel on salt in a dungeon until the show is over.
Li Tongguang, I am SO utterly disappointed with you! I had a liiitle bit of hope when NYZ embraced the idea of…
So disappointed too. How many times does she have to say she's not interested for him to back off? And people thought telling him RRY is RX would glue him back together again.

People who don't have it on iqiyi or viu should put in a few views on Linmon's YT so next time they sell their shows, they can say to iqiyi "you sure you don't want to buy for x country? we had x views from there"
I think without seeing their long journey and how much dangers they faced along the way and how the princess bonding…
Yes, true. But what ReedMery said, the disillusionment and hurt of YY with her brother would not affect us had we not seen her growth and formed our bond with this character we all wish to protect. We feel hurt for her now. Each and every character we've come to love, whatever tragedy or happiness they go through will affect us. Stories are not all plot-driven. That is not the one and only thing important in storytelling. Some stories are driven by the setting or character/s or the point of view or conflict or plot. Many a mix of these. AJTL excels in building the characters vis-a-vis the many events that push them to grow. I prefer this than a fast moving plot with flat characters I would care little about save maybe the main leads (if we're lucky that they got flesh out more).
If An, Wu, and Chu end up have to unite as one kingdom to defeat Northern Pan and prevent more wars, NYZ and RRY…
the huge battle in the trailers looks like a battle versus Northern Pan based on some of the armor. might be where everyone who cares will be there (6RH gang, RRY, Chu, LTG)
