okay but i would have liked a slower development in their relationship, there could have been like a 1+ years time skip, the emperor reflecting on his past actions and 'making up' for them, uke forgave him (and way to fast) just because of love (as if years of trauma could just disappear so easily, i could never... honestly i would have preferred no relationship between them at all but whatever)
OR there could have been no reincarnation trope for the emperor, just have some of the past emperor memories, know what he did but being a completely different person
the only reason i didn't care anymore that they ended up together (honestly whatever, had to resign myself) was that my hate for the brother was bigger than the one for the emperor
ps. the poor little crown prince, i felt bad for him but at the same time it was funny seeing him;; but i hope he grows up being a good person
