you doing a drag race reference and having a squarespace sponsorship is brilliant
hey could you do a video on "Monster High The Lost Movie" and a video on "Monster High/Ever After High: The Legend of Shadow High" please
Do Supernatural Academy! The episodes are free on youtube
@@haikwin OH MY GOD THANK YOU ive hbeen wondering why i couldnt find the episodes on this one illegal streaming site
@@pristina4628 its a book crossover of monster high and everafter high, the audiobook is available on CZcams if you want to know more
I swear Rainbow High could make a killing if they made real-life full size versions of some of these outfits. I'd kill for Jett's drawn-on jacket.
Not gonna lie, I'm tempted to learn how to make my own clothing (from template, but still) solely to be able to replicate some of these outfits. But with more spikes and chains and fishnets.
Yesss!!
I would KILL for Sunny Maddisons Puffer jacket in the winter set
They have fans who found almost complete outfits some expensive and some affordable
@@lynne99 what! Where?!
not Cristina vee voicing ANOTHER character when shes still voicing Marinette, Verosika, and so much more like this girl is a legend.
She's on track to become the next Tara Strong tbh
@@Kiterpuss fr
Not to mention all the video game characters she plays. She's everywhere at this point
Who does she voice act??
@@lunawolf1753 ....I'm gonna answer your question, after I gush for a bit. Cristina Vee voiced Mio, *the* Mio, the second-best character in "K-On!"!!!!
A college that is JUST for fashion could both be the nicest place or the worst. The fashion community can be very nice and inclusive sometimes, but there is a lot of disagreements and opposite opinions
It would be GREAT if art schools could teach interpersonal relationships with artists because artists tend to be sensitive, it's often part of why they produce art, and there's a lot things that can happen when producing art that cause conflicts that are hard to navigate. And boundaries are really tricky when a part of the process is often talking about what you don't like about something that someone else made. Not all criticism is appropriate but not all of it is in bad faith either.
Basically, artist need to know how to relate to art, how their relationship of their *own* art impacts them, how their relationship of *others* art impacts them, and how *other people's* relationship with their *own art* impacts them.

Good thing to note for my book because the main character is a literally a fashion designer in the future but you know
it’s not just for fashion it’s for all arts
Yeah, I’m lucky I grew up in a very politically diverse family, but a respectful one (mostly, looking at you uncle rusty). We tend to be a ‘do whatever you want just leave me alone’ sort, so we know how to coexist without taking beliefs personally. My personal strategy tends to be a mix of bullheaded integrity mixed with telling people upfront that I’m dense. Communication, people!! No one will understand what’s wrong with you if you don’t tell them what’s wrong with you
Holy crap, I always knew you said "break a leg" in the theater but I never knew that it was "to get into the cast." It makes so much sense, I feel dumb haha
Same lol, I needed it explained
English isn't my first language so I had been wondering for so long!
Me neither, I love it!!!
I genuinely thought it was an opposites thing😂😂😂
I didn't get it either lol that makes SO much sense!
Just wanted to add that the main reasons ppl were accusing MGA of queer baiting with jade and bella were the use of the # jella in the rainbow high side series the vi life, as well as giving corporate "just wait and see what's under the rainbow 😜" responses to ppl who asked about the ship on insta
^^^
This ^^^^
THIS
Makes more sense
if i'm not wrong its in one of the epsiodes too (the one where bella and jade are running around in the halls) but it's been a while so i could have been misremembering. Like I feel they should know what fans mean when they say "jella" and that it's not a platonic thing and is very much a name for a romantic pairing between the two
I remember being so confused by the show adding a jock character... this is an art school, wouldn't the boys be artists too? I'm not saying sports can't overlap with creative arts, but it just feels odd to me. I guess they only did it to fit into "American high school" ideals, which just tires me out mentally.
He seems to be technically a theatre major or an "acting focus" with sports at the side. There's episodes where he actually acts and it's kinda cute. But I can't wait to actually see male artists more in the series
Ya know, some boys love fashion. Why didn't they explore that?
god forbid a male character has stereotypically feminine interests!! ugh 🙄
Its an art school that pushes you to think outside of the box and be creatively free. So like, why cant the boys also have makeup and actually fashionable outfits?
I recall another youtuber who briefly went over the RH story and it still annoys me that this 'school' doesn't allow it's students to use their work to better their career/future.
Getting more insight and seeing a further break down I can confirm RH is more like a corporation they all work at instead of a school.
If an art school exists/existed that prevented you from building and using your portfolio (their primary purpose) then I hope everyone sees it and RUNS.
This has been my exact complaint about Bella's expulsion. In what world does it make sense for a school to essentially not let you use anything from class in your portfolio? I read this as an unintentionally ironic take on Carter Bryant's story with Bratz and Mattel.
@@lightworker221 what happened with carter?
Don’t worry even us hardcore RH fans think Bella whole expulsion was handled too quickly and quite dumb.
@@beashemmad.sayson545 Carter Bryant created Bratz. Mattel and MGA have filed several lawsuits over the last 2 decades about who the Bratz IP belongs to. Mattel argued it was theirs because Bryant worked for them, but the counter argument was that he did that on his off time (vacation time and not on Mattel property) and pitched it to MGA. RH said that because Bella was a student there, she couldn't use her schoolwork to get an internship. That's like how Mattel claimed that anything Bryant made as an employee, whether on the clock or not, was Mattel's IP. (More to read on the Internet or the book "You Don't Own Me".) I think MGA was riffing the whole Mattel v MGA Bratz lawsuits with Bella's expulsion.
That school is definitely a cult, like they have to color their hair into “their color”.
They knew Bella was going to leave from the start. I believe the teasers/early episodes showed that she had somehow left, so that was the big thing that they showed the series would lead up to. For example they showed previews of their big project at the end being disastrous and featured Jade saying that this wouldn’t have happened if Bella were here. When they initially released the dolls, they focused on the main 6, and I think Bella was part of the series 2 dolls.
Yep, Bella was with the series 2 dolls
@@helloill672 weirdly enough bella’s doll released around november 2020, and the rest of series 2 around 2 months later
@@aj7842 maybe they wanted her to be with the series 1 dolls, but was held back a bit. Or maybe since she appeared in the web show earlier, MGA thought more people would want to buy her
yea the first episode had the main 6 panicking and jade saying "this wouldnt have happened if bella was here" so it was basically stated she would be somehow disappearing by the time their big project happens
I kinda wish she had stayed expelled, just kinda makes it feel like that whole story arc was pointless if she could just show back up
Honestly, I'm a fan of this show and the doll line. I mean, I can't buy anything, but I actually unironically like the series. It motivates me to be better in my own college life in an art school. Not to mention the outfits help me with arranging clothes too. Unironically waiting for the third season. I miss Monster High and Ever After High, so I guess this is my current binge-series rn. It's not super great but it is chill. They even Livestream episodes sometimes and it's chill enough to leave it playing in the background while I actually work haha.
Same!
Same!!
same minus the college part
I want the dolls too I love them and the show but I'm too old for dolls now and I don't ask for dolls anymore.
fr tho i kinda like this show
The fearleading squad in Monster High wear 5-inch bolt-shaped platform heels as a part of their uniform. So the shoes that the cheerleading squad in Rainbow High wear is nothing to write home about
I have never seen this series but just from this video I can only say that naming the one dark skinned character "Jet" would have been a horrible idea and I'm glad they changed direction before it was too late.
Wait I don't get it
Edit: WAIT OH MY GOD-
I don't get it, can someone explain?
@@cutekitty4862 jet black, as in the color
@@squeakboy3666 OH
Took me 5 minutes but
OH
Honestly the shows cute, but like you said definitely just to sell dolls. I do like a doll line with an associated show tho! I’m excited to see the pacific coast show/mini series and the shadow high spin off!
I love ur videos
I LOVE YOUR VIDEO J❤❤❤
Bella’s sales and fan response actually is what brought her back to the rainbow high series, she even got a second doll in a line that probably wasn’t originally going to include her
I really don't like how they handled Bella's return. I liked the idea of her taking a risk and it paying off but that didn't happen. Bella broke the rules, and basically used money and a technicality to reenter the school. On top of that, Bella gets what she wanted all along, to work with her idol. Consequences amount to, "You know that friend who told you not to the thing. You don't get to hang out with her any more." I really believed they could have written a better resolution.
Never thought of it that way.
Umm no she has to do community service as her punishment
@@strudel_reviews ah yes, community service, the worst of punishments /s
Right? I really wanted her internship with Ramona to lead to something bigger for her, but her getting back in feels like a wasted opportunity.
as someone who studied animation at uni i just gotta say the rainbow high characters look less like art students and more like the kids who would have bullied said art students in high school
YEAH, well, they had to be marketable. Lol
Also, they are in high school, a boarding high school, but still high school. And because we know that, we can safely assume these kids come from money. So, that might have something to do with their appearance.
Well they are teens in an upscale school and we can assume they have money
@@BabsChannel i agree
@@BabsChannel yep thats why im excited abt the shadow high line it seems like theyre gonna use that to talk abt class issues where shadow high is for kids who arent as wealthy. i feel like this is why everyone things im gonna be meaan i dress like them and am the only one in any of my art classes who does (im a creative writing major)
@@april4524 No one cares about your major.
The queerbaiting thing is because they started hinting at the shipp on socials and on Vi Life but then made the "best friends" move. It would've been okay if they just left the shipp alone if they were planning to not make it canon, but the fact that they hinted at it being canon and then it wasn't is what makes it not okay. Also, kinda lame to have a brand with a rainbow thematic and a "embrace diversity" message but not throwing any queer rep in it.
Rainbow doesn't always mean queer
@@niileq I know, I know. What I'm trying to say is that if not even the rainbow themed brand has any queer characters on it, then we are doomed. If not even the diversity advocate brand gives us representation...then you know we are in a really bad place 😕
@@roseberryy_ honestly kid brands 90 percent of time wont have queer characters and this one probably wont either i think they're just teasing the idea to keep the queer audience on board but i could be wrong so don't quote me on that however not every doll line series or brand absolutely needs a lgbt character
@@roseberryy_ everytime a new brand comes out ppl pick an lgbt couple to ship and the brand always teases and hints at it but it usually never happens
@@niileq "not every doll line needs an lgbtq+ character" bruh
All we ever ask for is representation. POSITIVE and ACCURATE representation. We very seldom get it. If there are queer tween and teens, they can make some damn queer tween/teen rep. It won't kill them to broaden their horizons.
the thing about dolls and ethnicity, as an Asian person, is that when the only change is the skin color and they all have the same face, it leaves me hanging in limbo. Is the one with black hair and lighter skin _really_ East Asian like me, or just a white person with black hair? They sure look the same as all the other dolls, and usually these things take place in pocket dimensions without race, so there's never any definitive answer.
edit: I do mean this about all doll lines: there's a very popular tumblr post praising the diversity of newer Barbie dolls. Intrigued, I went to the site and found a total of... about three East Asian dolls. I collected research on this back then, but explicitly Asian Mattel dolls still do lag behind all other races in quality of representation.
the more recent rh lines have different face molds
@@lilttiger that's nice.
Sometimes doing the bare minimum is more insulting than doing nothing at all...
I think the animators just used the same model and refined it to different characters, Since it takes too much time to just make and render 1 charcater (coming from an animator)
@@RosabellaRB yeah that's fair economically, but it doesn't negate the fact that despite the diversity in skin tones, kid's shows end up giving Asians even less. I don't feel represented looking at these clips. Period. I don't care if it was budget or laziness, don't try to dismiss that.
Also if you look at Tiger Lily Smith's comment, this is a problem with the actual physical dolls' face molds as well. A lot of times they're closer to whasian, which as a whasian isn't that great. Noses are very rarely wide, for exanple. (Idc about this doll line in particular; I'm referencing my barbie research.)
"That's why you say 'break a leg', so you can get into the *cast*"
.... I've achieved an awakened state after hearing this.
my biggest takeaway from this video is that actors say “break a leg” so that you end up *in the cast*. i have lived my entire life not knowing this. woah.
WHAT
Right?!? And I was a theatre kid never making the connection.
Okay my boyfriend and I watched these kind of ironically the same way we did with Monster High (ended up unironically loving that series despite some of the cringe and flaws) and I was practically frothing at the mouth from how frustrated I was. This series so BADLY wants to be in a college setting it hurts; all of the drama is super 'freshman in college' in vibe and the school literally functions like an Art University or very similar to the one I went to for four years.
Even the outfits and sense of style feels very college age to me, I didn't see a lot of people wearing stuff like this in high school but it was just too much effort. You got to Art Uni for a little and realize everyone dresses up like mad when they don't have a morning class.
I'm like aware consciously that they're highschoolers, but I definitely see them as college students if not reminded that they aren't
They did a lot more with "Jella" in the episode she was expelled. With Jade and her having what if it was done with a Boy and Girl would be seen as a date.
EXACTLY
bella first appeared in the show, not as a doll, and her doll was released like maybe a week after she was kicked out of the school so no it wasnt "she wasnt selling well" lol that was just her storyline
I feel the real thing going downhill with Rainbow High is the inflated price points. They are getting a bit insane after Series 3.
Then again everything is going up in the US right now.
Fr same thing with lol surprise there was a doll for 15 dollars that i asked my mom for in 2020 i didn't end up getting her and i can barely find her i saw her on amazon for like 160 dollars
i wish they had lower price points but bc of inflation and how well the dolls and fashion is it honestly is a good price. these dolls are more like collectors items tbh these are real amazing quality fashion dolls before they are kids toys in my eye
@@april4524 imo the prices kinda make sense i mean you are getting amazing quality dolls for kid toy prices (bc they are kid toys) but the only thing is most parents aren't willing to pay 50 dollars just bc a doll comes with a extra pillow and sleeping bag (slumber party dolls) i know if my mom didn't like the dolls as much as she does i wouldn't have any at all i have four of them
@@niileq yeah, I feel like the slumber party dolls should’ve came at maybe a 40-45USD price, because they’re not as detailed or have as much care put into them as the rockers did
"Aw, sadness," feels very mid 00's to me, lmao. Like it lives in my brain with awesome-sauce and nyancat.
You can't copyright clothes, it's how the fashion show world works. A person in a random country makes a nice cat shirt, someone in france copies it, then it's copied again in fashion week Milan and by the end of it no one remembers the original shirt
Depends... If a shirt has a copyrighted logo or design on it then someone can't just legally replicate that shirt.
Maybe they got rid of Bella in the first season because pink isn’t a color in the rainbow? And for the first wave of dolls they just wanted the seven core colors in the rainbow. Because you know it’s the first wave and they wanted to emphasize the rainbow theme?
It’s because she was shade at Barbie. They basically brought her along to pick at Mattel and Barbie
@@kaylacartergraphics120 Now that they talk about it... by 2017 or 2018 I have seen several news and confirmations that MGA wants the brand of Barbie, they even proposed to Mattel 2 ways...
1. was to sell Barbie for them.
2. unify to be one.
Mattel obviously discarded the idea and I actually understand the reference to Bella Parker, plus they're doing Aria, you know, that doll very similar to Barbie but from the same MGA.
@@kaylacartergraphics120 a lot of people are saying this, but is this a theory, or was this confirmed? Because they made her really lovely for that, and I wouldn't even say she is the most Barbie of the characters
@@LenaFerrari Yeah, I wonder the same thing tbh
I really like the style of the show. Even though it’s set in a high school, I like that it feels like a college type of school since the cast live there boarding school style.
I know the point is to have long flowing hair girls can style but I would really appreciate some short/medium length hair representation. I don’t want it to be tomboy either, because short hair doesn’t always mean tomboy. I don’t have a problem with tomboys but I really want a character who slays with shorter hair. And not the bob the principal has either, like something cute and fun. Idk. I know it’ll probably never happen but I can dream 💔
i know when i was little i didn't really like dolls with molded on hair and short hair and preferred ones with long hair that I could brush and style most little girls like to comb the dolls hair so that probably wont happen
I graduated from an arts high school. We had a small make up department but we did have a big costuming course. Drama city. Let me tell you. I still check up on the drama that comes out of my old school sometimes. This series doesn’t make me miss high school but it reminds me how hard we all worked our asses off during lockdown (end of the year projects where we stayed in school for 24 hours to get things done)
POV: you're seeing the shows artstyle for the first time:
👁️👃🏻👁️
👄
I honestly didn't have any major problems with the art style...
*Except for those freakishly realistic teeth screw those freakishly realistic teeth-*
Wait hearing all these characters’ names is actually kind of funny…because I grew up with _Rainbow Magic,_ a franchise that has differently themed fairies in each series, and it started with rainbow fairies. The red one was also named Ruby, the yellow one is also named Sunny, and the blue one is named Sky (so similar to Skyler).
Idk but it was just vaguely funny to me; like I guess people come to think of the same things for names themed around rainbows/colours lol.
WELL SHIT THX FOR REVJVING MEMORIES FROM MY DEAD CHILDHOOD. THAT BOOK SERIES WAS MY SHIT!!! Sorry, Im excited. Felt like I was the only one. I think I still have have the fish fairy book from the pet fairy series.
Rainbow High is a surprisingly uplifting show to watch. The series centers around different characters with different majors working hard to accomplish their dreams. Rainbow High is supposed to be a very competitive school, so each character is shown to be incredibly passionate in their talents and goals. I especially loved Bella’s story where she risked breaking school rules to get an internship. It shows just how passionate these students are. As a lost college student, Rainbow High actually helped motivate me to reach my career goals, as cheesy as the show may be.
About the queerbaiting thing, basically Rainbow High had a side series called the Vi Life where they made a lot of references to "Jella" which is the ship between Bella and Jade but kinda were also flip-flopping about it when asked if they were gonna be canon or not.
Personally, Id love to see it get canon cuz it'll be a cute Bffs to Lovers story and they clearly have contrasting aesthetics so visually gives a lot of base to work on future projects and ideas. Plus, having a series called Rainbow High and having a cute queer couple in it is just cheery on the top
Rainbow doesn't always mean queer and just bc two characters of the same gender are rlly close doesn't automatically mean they should be together
@@niileq but they have tension its different, we arent shipping all the besties its literally just them for most of us bc even without the # and everything they show feelings of real jealousy and just act like a couple
@@april4524 they don't act like a couple yall just like shoving characters together when its platonic
@@niileq i literally sent the thembie i was inlove w back then the episode and i said "us when we preteneded we didnt have feelings for eachother" they agreed
@@niileq why are you replying to every comment happy about jella? you seems so mad for what? let pple ship bella and stop going under every comment of this video to bring people down. You have a roblox pfp so i wouldn't talk.
To answer the question abt Bella being kicked out wasn’t because her sales weren’t doing well. The Bella doll was a little bit earlier than the rest of series 2 but she was very new by the time that episode was released so I think it was for drama
I don't say frowny face or sadness, I say "Awe tear" while using my finger to draw a line down from my eye as though tracing a tear.
BRO I USED TO DO THAT TOO HAHA
Fun fact! I go to a career based highschool that is a lot like this just no dorms. I’m enrolled for digital art but there is also fashion and cosmetology courses :). Same with the show you have to apply to get in and meet certain requirements
Do you go to OCSA?
@@sadcena7204 I go to butler tech :)
ahh thats super cool!! i went to a middle school like this but then i moved. did they teach me my times tables well? no and it stunted my academics for sure but having hours of theater rlly made up for it
Where do you do comics? Like which platform
@@haileygiabiconi8830 Webtoon! My comic is Madoka and the Moonblade it’s a canvas creation
15:29 I knew that saying bad luck to someone doing an audition was a thing but I never heard the second part of it.
Break a leg so you end up in the cast
Well I learned something new today. Love these videos.
Me too!! I was so surprised xd it makes so much sense!
"Break a leg, so you end up in the cast" l have never thought of that in my life.
Is it me, or does Sunny's hairstyle remind you of Sailor Moon's hairstyle? 🤔
I find the show fun to watch. I always get excited seeing the dolls that were newly released to be in some episodes. It gives off a different feeling for some reason.
I had NO idea Rainbow High had a cartoon. My only experience with these dolls was when I saw one at a Best Buy that looked like Cher from Clueless.
Status update: ever since I watched this video, I binge watched ALL the Rainbow High episode, and currently watching season 3. I even bought the Sheryl doll (the one that looks like cher from clueless) and currently trying to restrain myself from buying more.
As someone who's been buying the dolls since the day they came out, yeah I didn't see the show till after the second wave and the cheer leader dolls came out lol I stopped trying to buy every single doll, but that's going to change once Shadow High comes out, those dolls are EPIC.
something i find really funny is how there are so many anime/adult cartoon in the show. its so crazy seeing Lucy Heartfilia's voice come out of a doll
The only advantage to watch Season 1 on Netflix was the little sequences between each webisode where we could seen the front of school before it was finally shown in Season 2 webisodes.
Another trivia: At the launch of Rainbow High, some Skyler dolls have "Skylar" written on the box instead of "Skyler" which confused a lot of people about what's her real name at this time.
Thank you for your new video! ^^
Now I wanna see negative review the polly pocket series. Loved that show
I love how MGA easily taps into current fashion while still making it all look cute on its own, but the dialogue for their shows/movies/etc. feels out of touch and outdated sometimes.
depending on how they prep the dolls for designs, demoes, production and etc, they might already have a rigged 3d model for each characters, which would make it faster to swap or add characters mid season
I envy their ability to do makeup so well. Every video they look like a god damn queen, and I'm living for it 🙏
cartoons for toys have rlly gone downhill since eah got cancelled
True
One toy series I feel like is solid is Mermaid high!
@@tiffany-chan1235 ooh i never heard of that before! i'll be sure to check it out
3:03 um, they're 14-15. Plus the way Violet dismissed Sunny in literally all the episodes made it seem like she genuinely didn't want to continue the friendship.
10:33 , Just like to note Bella came out in series 2 which I do not believe was out at the time!
The Fear Squad (the Cheerleading team) in Monster High wore high heels. 😉
10:35 well actually originally Poppy was supposed to get kicked out but they didn’t want one of the main characters to get kicked out so they went with the more of a side character like Bella but they did make a doll of her after she got kicked out
Bellas doll actually came out after the series premiered
As far as copyright for clothes go, it's confusing to me. Certain aspects can be protected but bc clothing is considered an essential item it can't be completely protected. I think that's how fast fashion companies are able to copy designs
I haven't watched the series since the end of season one
There's a second season in CZcams that has new episodes they are good I recommend the season if you haven't watched it.
@@pinkprincess6136 I know it's on CZcams I just don't bother to watch it
@@its_v69 oh ok.
Yes all the characters are reskinned versions of each other but can't help but appreciate the amount of detail they went into making different outfits. Making all those 3D assets is probably where most of the budget went and some of the outfits are pretty cute. I wouldn't watch the show nor really care for anything it stands for but was an interesting video to watch nonetheless.
So since you've done rainbow high videos on the dolls and the show, maybe the fandom next? Theres a whole community of people collecting dolls, making fan theories and aus, and making unique ocs who are all connected in the same universe
They gonna release two spin-off series now as well so I’m wondering how’s that gonna be. Cuz one will be pacific coast ( where Bella might be the main character) and the other will be Shadow high which might interested you even more due to the edgy aesthetic they have and how they are made to be grayscale! But I just this doesn’t mean the main series will lose quality and they manage to add something more. I feel a movie will help the show a lot
I immensely relate to saying 'sadness', both aloud and in text form
I found the dolls before the show dropped and fell in love with the wave one (and 2) designs. I was really in love with season one and the developing freindship between Jade and Bella. Season two though..Hopefully the release of Shadow High will pick things up! :)
I really like the high quality on the dolls, but I can't help but have a few gripes with RH. If you look at the first wave and blur your eyes a little, Ruby, Poppy, Skylar and Jade look just look like recolors of one another, especially with the hairstyles. The rainbow gimmick would work for maybe a sub-line, but applying it to the whole brand in some cases just doesn't really give a chance for the designs to pop, which they might have otherwise done with one or two more colors thrown in there.
Most of the characters also have a very similar designer/glamourous fashion style, which makes it feel more homogeneous. You do have eg. Sunny who has harajuku inspired elements, but this stays at just elements. Compare this to Monster High where eg. Frankie was way more preppy, Lagoona had that beach aesthetic, Draculaura lolita, etc. There was still an underlying goth thread, but the dolls all had their own clear fashionstyle that set them aside. Ironically enough, RH is supposed to be a fashion school and I miss that diversity in sense of fashion.
like why dont they have ONE goth baddie, even in the shadow high line none of them have the gothic egirl aesthetic
@@april4524 I'm with ya. Though I feel like at the twins measure up to the goth expectations, just would have been nice to see that with the others too.
@@EverAfterMsp yes the twins actually do have some goth elements but not enough imo if they’re going for the goth punk aesthetic and i wish there was more in general
Just wanted to share the first Amiya doll did look like the character in the show and the second doll was reg size and her hair was mainly blue and she was also made into the very big doll.
Just wanted to share ...
And interested to see what you think about Shadow High and the narrative they are starting with. I personally don't have a good feeling about it !!!
Headcanons I have with this show:
>it's a college
>Jade and Bella are girlfriends
>Ruby is lowkey bi
>Ainsley and Avery are girlfriends
Having _both_ Violet _and_ Sunny be character names just makes me think of _A Series of Unfortunate Events._ The Jim Carrey one, not the Netflix show.
EDIT: A: thank you for explaining the phrase "break a leg" to me. I've been wondering about that shit my whole life, didn't expect it to be a dad joke lol
B: I _think_ clothing designs might fall under patents rather than copyright, but don't quote me on that.
The reason that Bella was removed from the show is that Barbie sued Rainbow high for a shirt that Bella was wearing at the beginning of the series
I'm pretty sure a lot of the anger with queerbaiting had been after mga used the hashtag/ship name jella in several things
Personally my sister and I loved the show
The style and unique personality/fashion sense each character has is cool to see
I use a selfie stick just for taking selfies at home, since phone camera lenses have that thing where they make you look much worse than you do if you take a photo from a close range vs from a distance, so a selfie stick is good for that. For streaming with a phone people use a gimbal, MUCH different from a selfie stick lmao
Also, Bella wasn't a doll yet when the episode of her being replaced happened.
I discovered the show on Netflix, which made me research it online to find out the episodes are on here (CZcams). Netflix only has season 1, so I watched season 2 on here. I honestly like the show.
The fact that in the 1st minute you call out the fact that I headcannon that rh is actually a college
17:27 from what I've heard, you can copyright a pattern but not an entire design in the US🤔 but if there's smo who knows more, feel free to correct/elaborate
ur right!! thats how it is for like every other country too
The whole renew the subscription point is defeated by the fact that all promotional material about the show leads you to the CZcams channel but also it being on CZcams is printed on every box the dolls and accessories come with.
They should make a “create a monster” type doll. I know a lot of doll customizer want to do rainbow high but are a bit afraid due to the default face up. So they only buy one doll for their collection and sales stagnate. If you opened the door for customs the customizers would buy much more dolls and collectors would to because of the custom resale
At least these highschool cartoons got more drama than my actual highschool life but also they're pouring they're emotions into everything real fast
I honestly LOVE the series very much🤩 As an artist, I connect to a lot of the characters. It may be a little bit shallow in context, but that's what I like about it.. the somewhat innocence it inflicts reminds me of my childhood and how everything can go so so wrong, but in the end, there's always gonna be a rainbow.
It talks about passion, relationships, and a touch of conflict for realism.. maybe it's just me, but this would be a dream if this was the high school I went to... it's just so appealing to me.
I meaaaan- if I'm being honest the cartoon is actually decent, I enjoy looking at the outfits and stuff, and I really like their hair TvT
I actually bought the twins after just seeing them in store. I would love another Amaya (I have the blue hair one) but I'm not a big fan of the white hair that she was introduced with in the show, and iirc there's one other Amaya doll with another color hair but eh. Generally I just like the multitone hair dolls. Jett's split hair is cool, and the designs/hair of the rockers are pretty cool too
Did you not catch the monster high fearleader uniform reference?!?! The 1980s uniform?!
I have a selfie stick that turns into a tripod and a Bluetooth shutter button so I can do cosplay shoots by myself and then sometimes I use it out side of that. I don’t use it to vlog or anything though
I just discovered your channel and I’m obsessed with your videos! Thank you for doing what you do ❤️
It’s crazy when I started watching the web series I got interested in the dolls because I first I was not interested and I didn’t like them but I really like the characters and realize how beautiful the dolls are. Also I really like your videos and you’re very nice looking
I am just scared my friends will leave me because I have anxiety issues about that and it is not necessarily because it’s an insecure relationship. Sometimes you are insecure and not the other person, sigh.
I love your videos! And I own 20 rainbow high dolls. I think that they were targeted at doll collectors because they're high quality dolls
I bought two dolls because of your videos..... I don't know how to feel about that but they're really pretty. No regrets so far. Can't wait for Shadow high.
Update 2 weeks later: The number has reached eight and is growing.
You should check out "Rainbow magic". It was a book series made by Daisy Meadows! There's also a cartoon/anime about it! It was really cool! (Kind of...) you should totally check it out!
am... Am I missing a color pun with "Colin"? everyone else has color appropriate names and then there's this tool with the name of a canadian comedian?
Nah, Colin sucks so he doesn't get a fun pun name lol
@@GypsyxDarling thats fair, just wanted to check that my pun game wasnt slipping
Omg a Rainbow High video by Negative Legend on my birthday? That’s a cool gift!
I miss Rainbow High so much. There is no content for it right now and it's killing me. Watching this again because I'm sad with nothing else to do. Rainbow High, bring back my content 😭
So to clear up the queer bating thing, when ever fans commented to “Make Jella Canon” on Instagram they replied with the following statement : “The story is being written. The future is bright at Rainbow High, and we hope you come along for the journey! 🌈”. So when season 2 came around and Jella still weren’t official, fans got upset.
Wouldn't it be hilarious if this show took a whole different turn and be very highschool graphic...
Hey! There are actually more episodes now! And it’s gotten a lot better! Check it out!
The fact that you teased you would get a big amaya doll but didn't even mention that amaya's radiant week perspective project was literally just big amaya
The first wave included Ruby, Poppy, Sunny, Jade, Skylar, and Violet. Bella is in wave 2 with Krystal, River, Karma, Amaya, and a Hot pink doll.

I binged season 1 but didn't know season 2 came out. I like the look of the faces in the show better than on the dolls. But the faces are so similar in the show that I sometimes forget which character is which, even with the different colors. Also I know their hairstyles are all the same lengh coz of their dolls, but varying hairlength could have helped me identify them better. And by the time I watched it last year, the language really was outdated already, so it felt kinda cringy. I enjoyed season 1 though, for what it set out to do. Solid series.
I just saw a ad for Rainbow High’s new rival Shadow High…I thought of you as soon as I saw it…please get a doll so I don’t have to
I just saw an ad for shadow high dolls, they're part of rainbow high, they're different shades of black, white, and grey
Hey! I love your content and it’s super informative and interesting to watch. Would you maybe be able to do a video on what happened to Novi Stars, a previous doll line by MGA preceding Rainbow High?
Have a colorful day! (Sorry bad pun) ❤🧡💛💚💙💜
omg, I want all the shoes from this show. Literally ALL of them. Also thinking to learn how to sew, just to make the outfits... They should make a fashion line or something, I swear it would sell better than the dolls itself.
