Mr.Pibbleton posted:I bet Horde Prime is actually a rogue clone that killed the original who was a decent person. Also I like how nice Hordak is to Imp despite him being clearly defective. See, I got the impression that Imp was one of the Hordak's failed attempts to clone himself a body. But he kept Imp around because he's clearly sentient and relatively intelligent.

I was able to catch the She-Ra panel at NYCC on Sunday, and they showed the first episode there. Looks to be a pretty sweet season. For those who don't care about ![]() ![]() 1. Hordak is still reeling from the lie Catra told him about Entrapta being a plant. 2. Entrapta was banished to Beast Isle, but she doesn't show up in the episode. 3. Scorpia is going through some serious cognitive dissonance regarding her relationship with Catra. 4. In fact, Catra ordered everything of Entrapta's to be tossed. Scorpia is hiding Emily so she doesn't get scrapped. 5. The episode revolves around Glimmer's coronation as the new Queen, and focuses on the heartbreak admitting that Angella is gone. 6. The season is going to have a lot of friction between Glimmer and Adora as Adora tries a little to hard to take Angella's last order to protect Glimmer to heart and inadvertently stifles her. 7. Swiftwind actually talks again, loving finally. 8. Glimmer actually doesn't have her powers in the episode because she refuses to recharge. (See point 5.) 9. She's going to get ridonco more powerful now that she's the only one tuned to the Moonstone. 10. Catra tears out the power source for Hordak's suite and forcefully takes over the Horde. 11. Her plan is to go full blitzkreig to wipe out the Resistance while they're still reeling from the loss of Angella. 12. Shadow Weaver is a "guest" at the castle now and is freely walking around with an armed escort. Oh, and it is going to be a full 13 episodes.

Just finish the last season. Glad I'm not the only one not onboard with Catra's redemption arc. Honestly, that soured the season as a whole for me despite bit-for-bit, it was probably my favorite one. I'm just glad more people are finally understanding how totally broken Red Tornado actually is. ![]() I remember a bunch of people surmising during the first few seasons that if Scorpia actually reconnected with the Garnet, she'd be physically one of, if not the strongest of the princesses. Glad that came out to be true. Best comedy moment: Mermista and Seahawk black bagging half the guests at the underwater shindig. Best serious moment: Catra and Glimmer's dinner with Prime Biggest "Oh gently caress" moment: Reveal of Catra being chipped Sickest burn: Shadow Weaver on Castaspella, the whole time. Biggest "Fanfic-ing Your Own Show" moment: The projected dream sequence with future team. AlternateNu fucked around with this message at 01:24 on May 18, 2020 |

Beekeeping and You posted:Some people have problems with this season but have you considered: i am a lesbian and AAAAAAA HOLY SHIIIIIIIIT THEY DID IT I'd argue there was plenty of lesbian energy without the need for bad redemption arcs. Or if they were going to do it, it should've been a good-bye kiss as Catra sacrifices herself instead of Shadow Weaver.

Hispanic! At The Disco posted:I think it's more likely that Catra would sacrifice Shadow Weaver. Shadow Weaver should've gotten merc'd after one of her 12-dimensional plans falls through. No benevolent sacrifice. Just "whoops. Your luck ran out, lady." Beekeeping and You posted:Nah I'd rather not have another tragic ending where the lesbians die, thanks They're not the only lesbians. >_> Besides, Korra did it better.

Soonmot posted:But as much as I want opposite gender platonic relationships normalized, I can't read the ending with Bow and Glimmer as anything but a romantic relationship. The vision Adora had also showed their adult versions in a romantic relationship. There are also a couple points this season where to the two of them reach out to each other in crisis moments that is very much non-platonic. Like "despite being a seasoned fighter, I'm going to go for you instead of going for the threat" kind of reaction.

cant cook creole bream posted:Oh come on now. She did not sacrifice her life to be self destructive. She genuinely wanted Adora to be save there and knew that this won't happen if Glimmer is around. From her perspective, she was giving up everything for Adora, not at all expecting to get anything but a painful death out of it, because this seemed like the only chance. I agree with your first part, but the bolded part is laffola. She knew she was not in a position to escape anywhere. Also, I like how everyone is forgetting that she teleported Glimmer to A RANDOM POSITION IN OUTER SPACE and basically gave Adora and team the ultimatum of be there or your friend dies with no idea on where Adora's ship actually was.

twistedmentat posted:Yea, Seahawk and Bow not ending up together was a missed opportunity. I mean they could have at least had a one night stand that both were cool about. Yeah. Cause the one thing you want to tie to a heavily non-het show is a little bit of cradle robbing.

Chokes McGee posted:Mermista: UUU She-ra might be mono-W, but Adora is definitely Boros. Entrapta would be a mono-U artificer that shits out artifact creatures, and lol if you don't think Shadow Weaver is loving Dimir.

Elephant Ambush posted:Shadow Weaver is Rakdos wtf Karn is colorless because he's also an artifact. 90% of the creatures that make artifacts are U/x. Emily would be a colorless artifact. Darla would be a colorless artifact vehicle. Entrapta would be mono-U. (You could also argue Izzet based on how bug gently caress random she is with her experiments.) And no loving way Shadow Weaver is Rakdos. She doesn't do sadism or physical torture. She's the big plans, manipulate from behind the scenes, power-at-any-cost type.

al-azad posted:It really is. A family friend (white) was jokingly describing me to his wife and he said something like "Yeah, he's some kind of government spook" and she was horrified and he got super embarrassed once he realized. After 35+ years on this planet, I have never heard that term used outside of describing a government agent and had to look it up. ![]()
