Anyone Jung (Young) will have an interest in Yuka? I feel she may play a key for peace between the neanderthals and the ancient homo sapians. I feel Jung will protect Yuka. I really hope this is a parallel world, as this is messed up with regards to mitochondrial DNA and DNA. As it may become a time loop situation. Or a situation like from Futurama.
I thought there were significant biological and genetic barriers that prevent interbreeding in modern day humans. I can understand with early modern humans. Maybe Yuka had some Neanderthal DNA. Eish, but it was messed up. I can understand the Yuka not wanting her child, and I can understand Nakumu's intention on wanting to keep the child. They live in different worlds, different culture, one where the freedom of choice is widely accepted, and one where the scarcity of life is always held of the utmost importance. But it's pretty awful to ask her to just live through all that. The kids gonna end up as a double outcast- both from her foreign ancestry and the Neanderthal. Plus, there's a good chance she'll die in childbirth in the prehistoric era. No docs, no medicine. That's rough.
Does Nakumu love her? Not sure. From what I see he just showed the responsibility of what she must do and instinctively said that he will support her that's it. He already has a wife and a kid too. Yuka deserves Better and its nice that she found somebody to sympathize with and help her, finally accepting life is pretty wholesome.
It's going to be interesting if they can go back to the present after this whole saga. But will she choose to stay in the past? Going to be a Futurama, where everyone in the future is going to be related to her via her mitochondrial DNA.
