@RiriSaves 1. First, I will be addressing your claim that teenagers can be rational. I know that they can be, but they are less likely to be. Teenagers have less experience and are less matured mentally. Along with this, Yua is also in a stressful scenario, which would further hinder her thinking.
2. Secondly, you are acting as if it is outrageous for Yua to act this way, it is not. Considering all of the factors in the story so far, it makes sense she may not immediately want to question authority. She is living off of just the support of the kingdom, so she likely feels pressure to follow their orders. She has been told that she is the only one who can save their people, which would make her feel guilty if she were to question them or refuse to follow their orders. When you take this into account, it makes a bit more sense for her to not go against them.
3. Lastly, I want to explain why following the themes of the story, it makes sense for her to blindly accept it all. The story makes a critique of how society harms people and molds their personalities. This is most obviously seen in Sei's character, who has acclimated to Japanese society by becoming a good worker, even though this often causes him mental and physical harm. Following this logic, Yua could also be viewed as critique of modern Japanese society. Firstly, she blindly trusts authority, and Japan is a country where speaking out against those in power (from simply work seniors to the government) is discouraged. Secondly, her character can also be viewed as a critique of patriarchal values in Japan. Under the patriarchy, women are taught not to resist men who hold power, and their bodies are commidified at the expense of themselves for the benefits of others. This can be reflected in Yua's story. How she blindly trusts those around her, and the kingdom turns and commodifies her body into being their saint.
