    The best thing about Robin's scene is the visual cue. Robin is usually shown in red and green... the colors of Robin's traditional costume but in his scene he says something that's the 1st step on his path of independence. The 1st note of wanting become his own man and what's he wearing??? Blue and black. The colors of Nightwing.

      They also actually deal with their trauma as well. Instead of being dark followed by dark followed by even darker there is healing, there is hope. There is humanity. We fail and struggle but we also look for solutions. We react and process and move forward. Sometimes in a way that's unhealthy but also sometimes in a way that helps. Young justice is dark in a way most of dc isnt because it remembers that darkness needs light to matter. When it's one hopeless punch after another eventually you stop caring because it's just another bad thing. But when you give time for development and healing it's not just another bad thing. It's watching something being built one tortuously painful brick at a time only for it to be brutally destroyed again.

    This show was dark and brutal. But it was dark and brutal with stories and characters. It wasn’t overtly violent for violence sake. It wasn’t brooding without aim. It was poignant, well-paced and often entertaining. One of the reasons I am only whelmed thus far by the Titans series is it seems to be mimicking the dire attempts at shock the DCEU flounders in with consistency. If Titans sticks with its interesting ideas based on tried and true comic storytelling, it could be a great show like Young Justice.

    *2)* *Artemis* = Dealing with a assassin sister. Keeping secrets from her boyfriend and everyone. Scared of her lineage. Having a wheelchair ridden mother and abusive father.
    *3)* *Aqualad* = His biological father is practically the ememy of Atlantis. Always forced to take the most hard choices. Lied by his own mentor. The dead of Tula, his girlfriend.
    *4)* *Miss Martian* = Practically hiding her real race. Scared of being rejected by her teammates.
    *5)* *Robin* = Scared of becoming like Batman, but also kwoning the consequences of not doing so.

    I've analyzed Robin (Dick Grayson) from this episode all the way to the end of season 3 and I've come to another realization. Grayson says that he doesn't want to be the Batman anymore, yet his actions as Nightwing are almost exactly like those of the Batman. Think about it, faking Artemis' death at the hands of Aqualad, Aqualad's deep cover mission inside Black Manta's gang, forming a secret team to infiltrate meta-human trafficking rings, working with Batman, Aquaman (Kaldur'ahm), Wonder Woman, Robin and Oracle to outplay the Light at their own game, misleading his fellow heroes in a misguided way of protecting them, as well as sacrificing himself in that training exercise. He exhibits Batman-like qualities without even realizing it, even the way he talks sometimes. All those actions have consequences, good and bad, like breaking the Light in half at the Summit, violating the trust of fellow heroes, crossing lines to do what's right, tearing relationships apart, and I hate to admit it, Wally's death.

    It’s so funny because I was just thinking about this exact topic the other day after rewatching these episodes. I mean we’ve all seen this type of story before the whole “it was all a bad dream” plot line, heck we’ve even seen it before in DC animation (Batman: TAS Over the Edge, and Justice League For The Man Who Has Everything.), but what separates this series from the rest of them is that it shows how such an experience can leave lasting consequences, as it should. I mean witnessing such a nightmare scenario, and worse still being totally convinced that it was real! That shit is freaking traumatic, and to follow up such an intense episode with a freaking Therapy session? That is nuanced television right there. Hell Martian Manhunter hilariously even calls Batman out at the beginning of the episode when he’s all “Why aren’t the kids all better yet? It’s the next episode” “Gee it’s almost like Trauma isn’t easy to get over, I’m sure BATMAN wouldn’t know anything about that!” Lol

    A lot of writers of 'kids' content over the years have understood something very important: Today's kids are tomorrow's adults, and they need to be prepared for what they may have to live through. It is important that they have heavy messages delivered to them by 'people' they are willing to listen to, and sometimes that comes from their favorite fictional characters. It abstracts the ideas and goes from being a boring lecture they won't remember to an iconic moment that will hopefully stick with them.
    Moments like these teach kids that someday it will be helpful to them to open up about what bothers them and to try to understand the problem even if there isn't a solution. Even if they can't identify with the problems the heroes are experiencing, they may understand underlying themes of jealousy, fear, regret, lack of confidence. If these super powered individuals can sit down and talk out their feelings, maybe your average person can too.

    One of my favorite scenes in this show was when super boy and miss Martian broke up. And the reason was that miss Martian tried to alter superboys. And superboy was so hurt that the calming hand that used to touch his mind tried to change him.

    Gosh darn it, this video was phenomenal!!!! And to be honest, I am rather nostalgic towards the absolute great episodes that are "Failsafe" and "Disordered". They were (believe it or not) the episodes I first watched in the series. And since then I have just loved the show to death. This video truly explains the utter perfection of them imo!!! :)

      My love for YG (and Sage's videos) is very similar to yours. While they weren't the first episodes I watched, these were the episodes that sold me on the show and got me to watch it. When YG first came out, I was in college and didn't have time to watch weekly shows due to my schedule. I saw snippets of episodes, but because I didn't know who any of the characters were except Robin, I didn't understand what was happening.
      Years later, I stumbled upon some the counseling clips from Disordered and was blown away by the writing and voice acting, especially from Jesse McCartney (whose performance of Robin I actually hadn't liked until I saw that clip; my opinion did a total 180 after that). I knew without a doubt I had to watch this show. Finally sat down to watch it, and boy. Season 2 had its great moments, but Season 1 was even more masterful and has some of my favorite DC animated moments to date. But Failsafe and Disordered will always be my favorite.

    I think wally was only in denial with his feelings for Artemis and he is well aware of what it means to be a hero he retired because he loved her but at the same time he knows his responsibilities to the world so when he rushed to save it one last time without saying a word to her he knew he wasn't going to come back and if he said anything she would try like hell to stop him.

    Of course Superboy felt peace. All the heavy pressure and expectations that were forced in him we're gone. He was praised and needed and dominant. It suited him despite the horrid circumstances that led to that moment. So it was easy to block out any grief or fear.
    He had basically fulfilled his purpose of being alive. His destiny. Nothing else mattered.

    One of the coolest things that comes with bringing literal superheroes into therapy, and doing it honestly and respectfully, is that it shows you that getting help or going to therapy isn’t something that makes you weaker, or is an expression of weakness. If anything, it helps every single one of them become even greater.
    Even now, in the show’s newest episode (very mild spoiler), after years of leading the Justice League, Kaldur finally takes a break to take more sessions with Canary, to explore a decade’s worth of grief and lost friends, and he only feels stronger for it.

    I'm glad that this show took the time to actually look at the characters and see how they dealt with being in such a traumatic event because even though they're superheroes I think a lot of the time we forget that they're also teenagers they haven't fully figured everything out and being a teenager is already the most stressful most horrible most anger and fear-inducing time of your life add all the responsibility of being a superhero on top of that then going through an extremely dramatic event I don't know how they do it
    In a lot of shows something extremely dramatic happens to the characters and they never talk about it again or it only pops up in one other episode this stuff lasts for the rest of the season there are multiple episodes dedicated to this because it's an extremely stressful saddening and dramatic event that would forever change them

  • @_scriblr_1010

    Even years after watching this, these episodes have always stuck with me. The first time I watched season 1, it completely shocked me and I remember crying and asking my dad what was going on and if it was real. Needless to say, it was my favorite and not just because of the angst. Character development and having humanistic characters is a must in my book and up until these episodes, you didn't really see these characters as kids, you just saw them from how civilians in their society would have seen them -- untouchable, determined, perfect. At the end of the day, they're kids figuring out who they are and exactly what they want to be. They make mistakes and they learn from it, but those mistakes hadn't seemed so damaging to them until these episodes. My opinion on that is maybe they started to believe that their team was untouchable, that none of them could die and that none of the superheros would vanish. After they forgot it was a test when Artemis "died", the situation seemed real and because of that, even after the fact, they thought it was real. They thought that their friends had died in front of them and they couldn't do anything about it. I totally agree with you with the body language, it's super cool to me. I remember watching Superboy (who is my least favorite in season 1) and just scoffing at him kind of blowing up even though I do the same thing myself. But then when he came back and talked, it was like my eyes opened and I realized what kind of character he is. He's a confused kid who felt like he had to live up to someone that was perfect. And when he explained how he felt bad that he was happy when the JL died, I understood him. I understood because when you're comparing yourself to someone else, whether it was just you or someone compared you, when that person messes up it's like you guys are the same, especially if you put that person on a pedestal yourself. He's still not my favorite since season 2 was eh and kinda made me hate most of the characters, but I do understand and relate a lot to him. Sorry for the whole rant thing, some things may not make sense or be correct, but this is just how I'm looking at it. If you read this far, you're awesome.

    "I don't wanna be THE Batman anymore" is probably one of the best lines in the show
