I just now realized you can see a list of who you’re following.

Finished The Dragon Prince and loved it! Nonspoilery summary: the plot was meh, the characters were fantastic. Great music, humor, and animation for the most part. My only big complaint is foreshadowing - they weren’t amazing at it, whether a plot twist or character development. But they could have been a lot worse too, and you have less time in a show than a book - you have to balance everything and give everything time, and I think they did that pretty well.
Spoilers - I loved everyone? There’s not really any qualifiers there, I just loved them all. Emotional connections were made quickly and stayed strong. Many cliches were broken (others weren’t, but none I can’t live with. Except maybe the “unexpected kisses are romantic” thing, but everyone does that, I can deal). So much representation! Of everything! Ethnicities in appearance and voices, Deaf, lesbian and gay characters, different personalities and morals, all the rep, I bury myself in it.
I didn’t expect Claudia and Soren to have such a big role! But they are So Good and require love, both of them. Tell Soren he’s not stupid and tell Claudia you won’t leave her. They need emotional help. Amaya! Is! Epic! I ship her either with Gren or Janai (mighta spelled that wrong), could see either or neither. RAYLUM. YES TO RAYLUM. I like Nyx lol, and thought of Safire entirely too much while watching her.
And Viren is a good guy! I knew it! Or he was before Aavaros had him steal the sun power, I think that was a tipping point, but even before that he was like “I just want a good future for humanity”. And kept saying it even when it was only Mr. Evil listening. No one to impress - just him. His intentions are good, he’s not just evil to be evil or hurt people or gain power. And he shows that complexity over and over again, in his relationships with Harrow and his kids (mostly his daughter, poor Soren just gets put down which is not okay). He’s one of the most morally gray characters I’ve seen.
Aavaros, by the way, is delightful. I thoroughly enjoy him every time he shows up. Best evil guy 2020.
Yeah so basically I’m just going to die until B4 in...May, right? Not too far away, at least.
(My mom actually showed up while I was at the end of Book One and started watching with me, then stayed for all the rest. She likes it too)
