Nah if anything, this Han arc has been long and drawn out. We spent like 10 chapters with just the non-action in Nanyou, because that stuff better communicates the themes of this manga better than a weird unnecessary battle with Han.
People weirdly criticizing Hara for committing to the theme of unification through peace rather than an overly bloody battle when Hara stressed that this would make unification impossible.
Nah, if Han could have been defeated through battle, they wouldn’t have lasted for centuries during the warring states era. The only way for Qin to beat them is for them to surrender, and Tou recognizing that just goes to show that this man really does have zero weaknesses lmfao.
