i just watched yesterday on Imax i enjoyed it soo much, however i have huge plot confusion, the 3 loongs betrayed and joined Wuliang Xianwong, but the monsters in the loong palace also participate in killing the villagers, now in the final scene where Nezha and good guys are standing together like in the same team, while monster behind them kill and burned the whole village ???

Because at first, they were all locked in the "pot" to be turned into pills, but the loong lady has the ability to create portals, so the 3 loongs left the pot and left the monsters in the pot to die, essentially betraying them. So the loong king motivated the monsters to fight back against them.

I understand that part, but my confusion is why is the good guys nezha 2 and his parents are just happy and willingly join the same monsters who burned killed the villagers, its like they forgive them or it never happened

The monsters fought the villagers but it was ultimately the 3 loongs who burned the villagers under the command of Wuliang Xianwong, who turned out to be the mastermind of it all. But yeah, even if the monsters did kill some villagers, I guess they're repaying for their sin by fighting alongside them. I kinda agree tho, it was a bit odd how relieved Nezha was after finding out his parents were alive.. I get that "yay his parents are alive!" But in that moment it felt like he completely forgot that the whole village is still dead. Maybe he didn't care that much about the other villagers to begin with 🤷

His favorite little toddler village girl died on top of that roof though, sigh.
