But anyhow, Mulan and whomever she's with will be the couple simply because I totally believe that A & E will have only one LGBT couple and Mulan needs a happy ending. What I never understood, was why Mulan needed a love interest, in the first place? There have been plenty of characters on the show, where their happy ending did not involve romance. It's the show's twisted message. They throw in familial love now and again, but it's romantic true love that gets all the hype and attention.

Emma went dark because of romantic love for Hook. They even have promos screaming that Hook is Emma's one true love.....even though Henry is Emma's true love and that's confirmed. IT's shown you can truly love more than one thing, but they take romance over anything else.

So, Mulan being the LGBT character has to get a romance because that's the only way shallowly she gets her happy ending. But on an outside perspective, it gives hope to the LGBT community, but the show is more about stretching hope than actually being about it.
