>>98736965I guess they wanted a villain to serve as comic relief but having him be the kind of person who fights his own battles with martial arts clashes with the personality they wanted for him
and if he had been an evil sorcerer or some shit summoning demons to fight for him like Wuya then it would still not really fit, as you said the show is all about mystical shit so having someone who relies on mystical shit being such a loser kind of undermines it. It makes sense to me that they'd have the biggest fuck up use technology as it kind of makes it seem like magic > technology in the show
I don't feel like he felt shoehorned in though, I felt more that way about Chase sometimes
>constantly saying he doesn't care about shen gong wu>randomly does to fit the plotI'm not talking about the year of the monkey or the yin yang yo yo or anything though because those fit into specific plans he had, but there were still other times where his personality/motivations felt inconsistent as fuck
