Talk about damned it you do and damned if you don't. People are just upset, because the timing does not feel organic. The Camelot arc is about Emma's descent into Darkness, and how her loved ones deal with it. What does Mulan, or her love life, have to do with that? NOTHING!!!!

No one was complaining about Merlin being a 25 year old POC, because it just works well. He does not feel token in the slightest, and is being well-received by critics and fans alike. OUaT's Merlin is a breath of fresh air, because no one is making a big deal out of him. I am. He's sexy as all hell.
