That's it, you can close the series... BECAUSE YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO MAKE A BETTER SERIES THAN THIS ONE!
But seriously, in my eyes, the "House of the Owl" has already reached the same level as the "Amphibian". And by the way, I'm the biggest Amphibian fan in the world. It's amazing how harmoniously the screenwriters weave the storylines of the characters. And not only Luz, but, for example, the King rarely does without his own plot, which reveals him better or develops his relationships with other characters.
But the main thing, of course, is Luz and Amity. Finally, we got a bold enough animated series, where the romantic relationship between two girls, if any, is introduced into the plot from the first episode, and does not shift to the very end of the show due to the studio's fear of being criticized. I hope the screenwriters will not stop there, and we will have many more cute scenes with this couple (after all, even if everything is clear with Amity, Luz's attitude towards her is still vague, there is still somewhere to move, in general).
It was...Super beautiful and good! They finally revealed Amity's feelings...although only for the side for the viewer :) AND HOORAY! Now we know that someone else is writing to Mom! I just wonder who? I can only assume that Ida is, because at the moment no one else fits this mystical role... unless (well, this is already a conspiracy theory) the one who bewitched Ida herself and knows about Luz too?
IT WAS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL THING IN THE WORLD! AND I DON'T EVEN KNOW, OH MY GOD, AAAAAAH, I'M SO OVERWHELMED WITH EMOTIONS! LUZ AND AMITY ARE JUST THE DEFINITION OF A POWER COUPLE!
THE WAY THEY COMBINED EACH OTHER'S MAGIC? PERFECT. they are beautiful. I went to cry and sleep. In the name of the grey skull!
@vk954616: Fanfact, one of the scriptwriters of this series was Molly Ostertag, the wife of the creator and showrunner of Shi-Ry! And they also have cute photos from quarantine Grom on Twitter.
Am I the only one who didn't ship Loose and Amity, and for whom is the development of their relationship in a romantic way in this series an unexpected surprise? hd
@loginloyso: and how did it happen, because even if you don't ship it, already in the last episode, Amity's emotions from every touch of Luz gave away her feelings in the most direct way. If before that her two-digit phrases could still be mistaken for a desire to make friends, then after the 15th episode there could be no doubt that these were romantic feelings. =D True, feelings are one-sided, so it's hard to call it a "romantic relationship" as long as Luz is friendly with Amity.
Ooooh, Ida in this outfit looks like Katra in her old age.
The dance was just awesome, however, a little bit of smoothness was not enough, which was Ida's battle with Lilith, it was clear that at some points the frames began to sag, but still the dance is shocked.
The most important question that has been haunting me for many episodes is: how is Luz's phone still not charging?
@krutovalex: if they open a portal to our world just to catch Wi-Fi, then what should they open it to recharge their phone? Unlike Ann from Amphibia, Luz has constant access to her world.
@inkpen: that is, she runs into her world, looks for an outlet, inserts a charger there /which I have never seen/, sits, charges, then after a couple of hours escapes to the magical world?
@krutovalex: I don't know who runs where, but at the very beginning of this series (the 16th, that is), if you look closely, you can just see a wire very similar to the wire from the phone charger, one end of which lies on the armrest of the sofa, and the second disappears somewhere in the portal into the world of people.
Enemies to friends to lovers high school au? Yes please I think Luz is one of those people who's like, "Is this a ring? Do you want to get married? Wow, damn, of course we're best friends," until two years later she wakes up in the middle of the night thinking, "SO STOP." Also, I think that these letters are with the mother, because in the camp they actually beat / bully the students, and they send letters to all parents saying that everything is fine.
Of course I understand everything.... but the handwriting is very similar to Amity's. It's L, or they teach everyone at school about the same noooo. And they also showed it in one episode. My logic says there's nothing in common and it's impossible, but damn.
@ghostly_mouse: The handwriting is not similar, if anything, all the dots here are a circle with a hole, and in Amity's note they are normal, Amity's "o" is completely ordinary, and here with a squiggle, "g" is also different, Amity has long tails with a clear loop, here small, "e" is also ordinary, here with a bright long tail. In short, a completely different handwriting, definitely not her. And for some reason, at first it was incorrectly spelled Luz, and not Luz - that's interesting, i.e. the one who writes letters saw the correct spelling somewhere and corrected himself.
As expected, an absolutely kind and enjoyable series. But in the comments to the news about such a plot thread, there was, as always, a ton of haight. I don't see anything wrong with the series, for the life of me.
So I was scared about a couple of episodes ago when Amity had some guy in the drawing, I thought oh, did they decide to cross out her rapprochement with Luz from previous episodes?!
But no, it didn't seem to me, and the sympathy between the girls is more than friendly, it's fine, everything went well with it!👩🏽🤝👩🏼💕
It's sad that Luz is so worried that her mother will find out about the "camp" and punish her, I hope everything will be fine and these letters will not hurt Luz and her mom much 🥺
And I told you that we're going to have a prom episode back on the pajama party episode. No, I don't predict the future, I'm just a professional cartoon series supervisor, which allows me to predict the development of the plot. Okay, jokes aside. As soon as the school appeared in the series, it became clear that we could not avoid such an episode. To be honest, it's harder to remember an animated series about schoolchildren where this did not happen. Apparently, for the average Western viewer, graduation is a very significant event in life. We somehow treat graduation more simply, at least they did when I graduated, and that was quite a long time ago, so maybe something has changed. Maybe even thanks to Western animated series. Okay, maybe you shouldn't put it off for later and immediately talk about the elephant in the room. Yes, in my previous reviews, I made fun of the shippers Luz and Amity, reproached them for seeing what was not there, and in general assured them that there was just such a peculiar female friendship between the girls. Well, I was wrong, and you're right. Yes, I said that because I think it's better to admit my mistake than pretend that it didn't happen. But I still want to clarify my position, I would be against their relationship, not because I am somehow against same-sex couples. On the contrary, I very often spoke in reviews of other animated series, as a defender of such. The fact is that I wanted the authors to have already moved a little away from the eternal trope that the main character or heroine should definitely have a girlfriend or boyfriend by the end (in any combination). I mean, why is this such a necessary plot construct for the development of the hero? Or do the authors think that if the hero did not find anyone by the end of the story, then the hero did not fully take place? Anything can happen to the hero in the course of history, he can lose relatives, friends and even die himself, but leave him without a passion in the end, what a nightmare! I understand that this is one of the basic plot elements in most stories, but it to some extent postulates the idea that even if a person has achieved something significant, but he is alone, then he has not fully taken place as a person. And that's why, when Ida was shown in this series, who is the most powerful witch on the Boiling Islands and at the same time feels great without a beau, I began to hope that since Ida is like that, then Luz can follow in her footsteps. Luz's dream is to become a witch, and not marry a handsome prince or princess, whichever you like. And that's why I wanted the series to avoid dragging the main character into amorous affairs. I still wanted to see a hero who just goes through all the difficulties to a certain goal, and does not solve love problems along the way, but they obviously will. This is another alarming moment for me personally, when one of the heroines has stronger feelings for the other. Amity is clearly passionate about Luz in this series, while Luz herself has not yet understood her feelings much, and in general there is a certain feeling that Amity is emotionally older than Luz. They may be the same age, but Luz clearly has more foolishness in her head, and Amity already wants a serious relationship. I just recently watched the animated series, the name of which begins with "Shi" and ends with "Ra", where there was also something similar when one of the partners wanted the other more, and the second only reciprocated at the end of the series. So I don't want this kind of relationship to happen here again when Amity is mad at Luz for not understanding her feelings. And this will happen, because Luz said that she would go to the prom with Amity as a friend and Amity seemed to have arranged it so far, but love is such a thing, it's like a drug, you will always not have enough of what you have and you will want more. So next time "as a friend" Amity may not be satisfied. Will the authors lead to the fact that Amity will become an antagonist in some way, especially since there are prerequisites for the fact that she wanted to join the Emperor's coven, oh God, I hope not. In general, now I am extremely careful in my conclusions about this. Personally, I just had a bitter experience when I was very praised for the love line in the first seasons of Star vs the Forces of Evil, but in recent seasons the love line has become so tortured that only the lazy did not kick it. So, although I have hope in my heart, I will evaluate the love line as it develops. And at the moment it was very interesting to show. I liked the shot at the end of the episode where Luz and Amity are both looking at the moon, I wonder if they are thinking about each other at this moment. There is also a mystery about who writes letters to Luz's mom, I first of all think on the Go, since it seems only she wanders into the earthly dimension for a variety of garbage. In addition, she knows that Luz was supposed to study at summer camp, Luz herself told her about it in the first episode. Besides, Ida is an adventurer by nature, so it's probably not the first time she's forged letters. Who else in the magical dimension needs to do this, and who else can do it besides Ida? Lilith seems to be a powerful witch too, but when she saw Luz, the first thing she said was where Ida dug her up. That is, even she does not know how to move into the earthly dimension. Practically no one was shown to us in the earthly dimension to draw conclusions about who else can write. So I'm still thinking about Ida.
@Seirei: Well, actually, Amity could fall in love with Luz as a person. In adolescence, you can sometimes confuse warm feelings for a person with romantic ones, besides, in theory, this is a time of experimentation and all that. But there's a prescribed scenario here, so it's likely to be romantic after all. But I'm on the same side with you on this issue: I really like it when they leave friends as friends in TV series, and do not try to attribute love lines to them (this applies to friends of any gender), I've met very few of these, and it's always worth its weight in gold, because very often at some point the screenwriters stumble about this, "they've been friends for 3 seasons, but let's get them hooked up for no reason." I myself have a childhood friend, a guy, dk, how many jokes have we heard in our lives "the bride and groom" (when damn, we just wanted to urinate together in mortal kombat on sega), and then when we grew up: "Oh, you've been friends for so many years, haven't you ever had feelings? Honestly? Mmm?" - It's a kick-ass. And because of cinema in particular, people's faith in real friendship disappears, it seems that if people are close, someone wants someone there anyway :D
@albinka_: Well, that's why I resent it, okay, if it were really worth it, it often seems that the screenwriters go for it simply because they don't know what to do with the characters. And that makes romance look too cheap. It just really seems to me that this is some kind of imposed stereotype that if gg does not have a relationship, then gg did not take place as gg.
@vk377048: "dementia and courage" is usually just a feature of "strong male characters" in animated series :D but apparently when a girl does the same thing, it doesn't go in?
@albinka_: gender doesn't matter at all) but in defense of the series, I will say that in the second season we got rid of the jambs and understood how it should be. The second season, for me personally, went much better than the first)
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA WOW, JUST GORGEOUS, GORGEOUS, and these emotional swings - I was so happy for Luz and Amity and immediately got these letters in my nose to GO CRAZY
I'm probably the only one who doesn't understand the cliche of prom and why it's being shoved into all the TV shows. It was a pleasant surprise to see piles of weapons and a gladiator arena😅

In any case, it's strange that they didn't call the parents to tell them that the child never came to them..
There is a new mystery, who is sending the letters?
Definitely the best episode of the season!
, I also thought at first that it was only about princesses and all that, but no
Amity and Luz are just amazing!
