Removal of What An Idiot misuse

* IdiotBall: Migaila's plot to be with Siddhartha makes no sense. Even if she did win the tournament and revealed herself to Yashodara, it's unlikely that Yashodara would just "give up" and more likely that the princess would call for her guards to arrest the imposter. It would've been far simpler for Siddhartha and Migaila to just run away together that night. The fact that Migaila does come very close to winning the tournament is what saves this from being a full-on WhatAnIdiot moment. Lampshaded by Siddhartha saying "What a reckless plan," but he goes along with it anyway. Justified by them being [[LoveMakesYouDumb young and in love]].

Better embodies the trope
* AnimalsRespectNature: When sentient animals appear, such as wolves or deer, expect them to assert that animals are nobler than humans since (1) animals kill for survival and never for sport or spite, (2) humans are greedy while animals are often self-sacrificing, and (3) humans fear death while animals are at peace with the natural order of things.

Added DiffLines:
* FoeRomanceSubtext: Mara and Ananda. Tezuka went with a HotAsHell depiction of Mara, for one thing. In Book Six, their dynamic has shades of BettyAndVeronica, with Mara (The Veronica) pressuring Ananda to choose between her protection and his love for Lata (The Betty). In Book Seven, even though she's now encouraging him to forget about Buddha and marry Lata, Mara's very handsy with him and gushes over how "handsome" and "desirable" he looks. In Book Eight she specifically entices him to "Come away with me."
