She-Ra is the #1 show that's been requested in my comments lately for me to react to. I'm excited to dive into Season 5! Season 5 was incredible! I've been saying since season 1, I'd love for She-Ra to get a ponytail.... AND THEY REALLY DELIVERED!!!! It was glorious. We also got the long-awaited Catradora but that's less important to me in order of significance.
She-Ra and the Princesses of Power is an American animated streaming television series developed by Noelle Stevenson and produced by DreamWorks Animation Television. Like the 1985 Filmation series She-Ra: Princess of Power, of which it is a reboot, She-Ra and the Princesses of Power tells the tale of Adora, a teenager who can transform into the heroine She-Ra and leads a group of other magical princesses in a rebellion against the evil Lord Hordak and his Horde.

Thank you all so much for watching and for all the support!
Disclaimer: I finished filming almost the entire series of my She-Ra reactions before I even posted season one's video. So a lot of the things you all have been mentioning in the comments that I've found really interesting and important to know were things I still didn't know as I filmed the series. :)
You should react to Steven Universe next
please react to "THE OWL HOUSE"
I would suggest attack on titan but the bloodshed might be a bit too much. So we will see
Love your binge reactions please do Volton soon.
Ship names now that the show is over and I can no longer accidentally spoil:
Seamista(Mermista and Seahawk)
Catradora(Catra and Adora)
Repkyle(Rogelio and Kyle)
Glimbow(Glimmer and Bow)
Scorfuma(Scorpia and Perfuma)
Spinnetossa(Spinnerella and Nettosa)
Catradora finally kissed and the universe said "the gay is too powerful, evil is hereby cancelled"
Omg truuuue XD
This was the true power of GAYskull
This
That’s what my friends said. The story of how the world was saved by the power of lesbiansism
This is how I will forever sum up the show
Shadow Weaver died doing what she loved, mentally scarring Catra
Oh wow
Pretty much, yeah. She was also really good at this little hobby of hers.
When I saw your comment I couldn’t help but laugh just cause how accurate that is
Yeah, maybe it was intended to be a noble sacrifice, but I can't help but feel she did it just to make Catra feel guilty saying bad things about her to her future therapist.
@@Ironysandwich Actually it’s kind of interesting
It’s less Shadow weaver trying to scar Catra then to give her her blessing to be with Adora, that’s the “your welcome” part
It was her way of telling Carta that she wouldn’t stand between them anymore while also telling Catra she still has a future to make of her own.
It’s a also a call back to season 3 when shadoweaver and glimmer confront Catra and catra says “you came back for adora”
well this time Shadow Weaver went back for Catra
They really amped up the gay this season. Scorpia's back muscles alone ended homophobia in three different galaxies
The fact I cannot even deny this😩
She was finally allowed to. In an interview, she stated that she had to fight tooth and nail to put in homosexuality. Spinerella and Netossa were pushed to the background as a compromise in season 1. They became more prominent. Her main goal was to provide for the love between adora and catra in season 5. She could only hint at other relationships, before becoming more bold with them as time went on.
I'm a gay man but damn Scorpia had me dying
@@arcikkus8227 well, her design looks very masculine (to me at least), so it's understandable.
@@m.s.5370 I dont love scorpia as a man but as a woman
Shadow Weaver really said “Adora, stay away from catra, she makes you gay panic.”
she wasn't wrong but nobody wants to be away from their gf
little did sw know the gay makes her STRONGER
her denying it made her weak
Fun fact: She-Ra's new form has the wings of glimmer on her boots, the heart of bow on her chest, and catra's horned headpiece design on her helmet. Her 3 best friends are a part of her 😊
Omg i never noticed that
Oh come on you’re everywhere
And all show how far she's some and repersent that She-Ra is the imbodement of Love, both platonic and romantic. I love this show.
HOW DID I NEVER NOTICE THAT!
her two best friends, and girlfriend
The moral of the story: The ghost of fascism can only be defeated by the gentle healing touch of a lesbian
PREECH
Stephanie: I really want She-Ra to have a ponytail-
Me: *smirks in season 5*
Yasss I remember her saying that and I laughed internally 😂
Debby Ryan smirk*
Same.
@@piike_the_garbage The shy smirk.
Yasssss i was like ooooh i cant wait to see her watching s5
I love how the thumbnail is she ra holding Catra’s dead corpse with a stone cold expression and Stephanie’s just there all excited over a pony tail.
🤣🤣
😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ikr 😂
Fun Fact: When Mikah and Angela were in the ‘Reality thing’ Mikah was trying to say ‘WAIT ANGELLA IM NOT DEAD’ pretty sad but he didn’t get to continue cuz he was Erased.......
Oh, absolutely. I didn't even get it at first.
YES I GOT THAT THE FIRST TIME I WATCHED IT AND EXPLAINED IT TO PEOPLE AND NOBODY BELIEVED ME
@@user-vy9tn5ix4s OH yea, I even missed it the first time. I had to pick it up from the WIki article on the episode. I'm like "He said WHAT!?"
UGH YES IT MADE ME SO SAD ;-;
I knew from that moment on that he was just lost somewhere and was waiting for him to appear haha
There was a serious lack of Kyle, but this season was immaculate.
AND OF DOUBLE TROUBLE
Also repkyle basically confirmed
The show kind of had too many characters, by the end.
@@guyr3618 Fair but I love every single one of them
@@byrontheusurper6505 Same!
Me: Season 5 is such a complex commentary on religion, with Horde Prime portraying himself as an all-seeing God who is using destruction and genocide to create "peace."
Stephanie: Okay Santa.
😂
hahahahaha ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@thebestofstephx you weren't wrong though! 😂
@@thebestofstephx also I'm so glad you enjoyed it!!
I would upvote but then I'd ruin the perfect number. So I'm leaving this comment instead.
I personally see it as a statement on Mindless following and cult behavior vs a statement on all religions.
YES!!!YES!!! CATRADORA SEASON IS HERE!!!
I have been WAITING for this one. I'm surprised I didn't attend the premiere.
EVERY SEASON IS A CATRADORA SEASON
omg ikr yasss
S4: Everyone skirts around saying 'dead' when discussing a serious plot point
S5: "IS SHE DEAD!?!?" spent on a joke.
That's kinda how it is in real life too though. When somebody has actually died, people tend to be careful with the language they use so as not to cause any extra unnecessary distress for that person's family and friends. But when you're joking around or exaggerating about something, the words 'dead' and 'die' don't have as much weight.
when i got a concussion i passed out and according to multiple other people, someone shouted "is she dead??" after i fell
@@stinkypoopybutt123 I’m imagining that they said it exactly the way frosta did
I'll be honest, I love so so much that out of the two main couples, it's the *gay* one that's explicitly and openly confirmed in the text, while the straight one is left at "Wait, so are they friends, or are they *together* together?" It felt like a sly little wink from Noelle as they flipped the old way of doing things.
That's so cool, i didn't think about it like that !!
i can’t tell you the joy it brought me when catra sat on adora’s lap like that
I have Cat as a nickname and i`ve literally sat that exact way to flirt with a boyfriend while also distracting him from doing something. There is definitely no heterosexual explanation for that scene.
@@Katwind there really isn't lol
They kept entrapta on a leash because the last time they didn't she nearly got flame broiled.
Edit: shadow weavers last line "your welcome" may have well have been "have fun in therapy"
Still abelist.
Actually I think that was her final “At peace" moment
She gives Catra what she needs, her love (such as it is) her blessing to now be with Adora, and she came back for catra not adora this time
one final act that may not make up for her lifetime of abuse and cruelty, but a final act of what little love she had left.
@@mckenzie.latham91 she ends it with "your welcome"... showing that shadow weaver only ever cared about herself.
@@matthewpopow6647 Or it was giving Catra the blessing she had always wanted to be with Adora
after all if Shadwoweaver only cared for herself she would not have saved Catra and would have instead used the magic to help Adora and the fail-safe.
@@mckenzie.latham91 czcams.com/video/xSvOTrIn7qw/video.html hii!! watch this and see how you feel. Opinions are different ofc but i think shadow weaver was totally manipulative and selfish till the end :D
The fact Glimmer went back onto Horde Prime’s ship days after escaping- the girl is so brave.
Hey, Adora.
More like
Hello, Adora.
@@keicentury6824 *sObS*
Same I had tears streaming down my face.
Hey Catra
Did somebody say, SWIFTWIND?!
I can't believe how amazing the acting in this show was.
The way how Adora's voice breaks when she says to Catra that the failsafe will work gets me every time.
YES in that scene when Adora says ''I'm so sorry'' I LOST IT
Who else cried for at least 15 minutes straight after finishing the show?🙋♀️
Same
I still cry
Even if I’m rewatching it.
I cried for fifteen minutes *gay* XD
Cuz after watching She-Ra I literally couldn't do anything stright any more.
I actually did for an hour.
Yes
Same
Any romance that starts with becoming a strong friendship before the romance is just 💋 *chefs kiss*
🤌🏻
I knew you'd like She-Ra's new design 😁
Entrapta admiting to being bad at people and always hoping that goes away if she helps them with her tech made me sob beyond hard man, I love that girl so fucking much
CATRADORA AND PONYTAIL SHE RA. I'M HYPED
Stephanie while watching the other seasons : it would be so cute if her hair was in a ponytail when she was she-ra
Me: just wait for season 5
I have been dying just waiting for the week to be over so I can watch this.
Time to cry, cheer, scream, and squeal at She-ra season 5.
WE’RE GONNA WIN IN THE END-
We must be strong
@@eurovision4lifee AND WE MUST BE BRAVE
Ayyyyyyyyyy time to tearbend!!!
WE GOTTA FIND EVERY BIT OF STRENGTH THAT WE HAVE AND NEVER LET IT GOOO!
WE MUST BE STRONG!!!!!!
Shadow Weaver's arc in this season is so important. Abusers aren't going to change just because time or alignment has changed, and their obsessive need for control is ultimately self sabotaging and self destructive.
Shadow Weaver is absolutely right when she says it's too late for her; she's done too many terrible things and can't be forgiven. Going out in a blaze of glory was the only way she could ever not be miserable
She-ra new design made me realized how buff she is
"What, are they baptizing him?" - exactly. The showrunner said that Horde Prime was modelled after a cult leader and his ship looks like an ostentatious megachurch.
Yessssss We get
Outfit changes
Redemption
Title Changes
And A bomb As fighting scene
^gayness saving the universe
Sorry, is that an Amity pfp? Because it’s fucking gorgeous and I love it!
Also, I fell in love with Melog.
Catra finally gets the parent she deserves
I will never stop talking about those commedically dysfunctional space suits, they are just SO funny to me! Like "your hair will withstand the force of the endless dephts of space right?"
HOW ABOUT HALF OF CATRA'S SPINE HANGING OUT IN SPACE??? HOW DID HER TAIL NOT BLOW UP????
@@amf8648 EXACTLY!
@@amf8648 We wouldn’t actually blow up in space. It is bad for you, but her tail would likely be mostly fine. (I’m not knowledgeable here, so this could easily be incorrect)
@@nox8600 but wouldn't it still hurt though? Like some sort of frost bite?
@@amf8648 I don’t know. I just spent a few minutes looking up if it would explode.
Catra: Me? All I do is hurt people...theres no one else in the entire universe who cares about me.
*cuts to Adora*
This is still one of my favorite transitions in this show if not eVeR
When u mentioned the ponytail in season one I literally screamed in real life “WELL HAVE I GOT GOOD NEWS FOR YOU!!” Good thing I was alone. I would have done it either way. I literally cannot wait for this JUICY SEASON to unfurl for you
Glimma and Catra finally got some time to be friendly to each other
Emperor guy who's name I can't remember: what will you chose , killing me or saving catra
Adora: yes
His name is Jeff Bezos.
This comment 😂🔥
"The ships not a pet" corrected entrapta's girlfriend
Oh hey i just said the same thing :D
after that, all we need is THE OWL HOUSE!!!
YESSS
I think you meant amphibia
Lumity foreverrrr
Yeah! I haven’t seen that show yet but I’m working on it. Another show I think she would like is Kipo and the age of Wonderbeasts. Because like Benson and Troy... yaaasssss 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Onyx Equinox
Fun fact! the creator confirmed that Lonnie, Rogelio and Kyle are now a 3-way Poly relationship, and that they took in Hordak's little cryptid!
:)
The old sword was a First One tool to harness She-Ra and control its inheritance. But She-Ra comes from Etheria itself. Adora’s look changed because now it’s based on her instead of an ill fitting suit she inherited. Mara pulled the old look off better than Adora did, but I assume if she hadn’t inherited She-Ra via the sword and had the unshackled power of Etheria, her She-Ra form would have reflected her (non blue eyed blonde white girl) actual looks more - s ties into the themes about colonialism
You know, you should watch the she-ra analysis videos by Five By Five Takes. They dig in a lot and it adds so much depth to any rewatches. They just did one on Adora.
God yes. Those are amazing. Bring tissues.
Also Reinaeiry has a couple really powerful She-Ra songs. My personal favorite is Ghost
fun fact: at the end of the show when they zoomed up into the sky after the best friend squad was reunited Bow was supposed to say "did we ever find out what Greyskull is???" which I'm guessing would lead to a movie or what I want, a Mara spin-off show.
Omg a mara show would be so good
Remember, adora beleives that she needs to earn her love due to the high expectations she had to uphold. So adora believes that she's not loved unless she's useful and fulfilling her she ra expectations.
"Why is she Five Seasons later trying to do things on her own"
Abuse
Oh
Wha?
Shadow Weaver did make her the favorite but she also put everything on abora. Anyone of katras mistakes was because Adora didn't keep her in check enough. Meaning anytime Shadow Weaver punished Catra Adora would blame herself seeing her friend get hurt this also reinforces the idea that if she's not perfect Shadow Weaver will punish her in the same way. In the kind of relationship that Catra and Adora had with Shadow Weaver both the one that is made the scapegoat and the clear favourite are being abused in different ways and it can be very hard to recognize that especially when you're the favorite or when you're thinking about the favorite. Adora basically has the mindset that she is only as good as what she can offer others which is why she has a hero complex it is something that shadoweaver hardwired into her.
My favorite line from Catra is Just this once STAY! It really explains so much of her sadness. And what Adora means to her. Thank you for all your hard work. Really Love your channel. Can’t wait to see what’s next. Have a Wonderful Day
Horde prime: I see all, I know all
Stephanie: Ok santa
Me: *laughing*
Why is it SOOOOOOO amazing to re-live shows through someone else??!? 😂😂😂
Getting to watch their excitement and shock is just ... *Chef's kiss*
Yes please! So much gay in this season, I love it!
Recommendations for you!:
Shows:
- A series of unfortanute events (3 seasons but long episodes)
- Kipo and the age of the wonderbeasts (3 seasons)
Movies:
- My neighbor totoro*
- Kiki's delivery service*
*A commenter said that Studio Ghibli is really serious with copyright strikes, and that channels have been taken down because of reaction videos to them. Watch them at your own risk
Warning though: Studio Ghibli is very aggressive about copyright strikes - and there were already multiple people who lost their channels because of reactions to their movies!
Probably not a good idea to do these.
@@sertaki Oh really? I'll edit my comment then, thx for telling me
Oh, Kipo would be a good series to react to.
omg i love a series of unfortunate events-
yes kipo!!
I love She-ra's season 5 design!
So noelle(the creator) confirmed that kyle, rogelio and lonnie are in a loving thruple, she also confirmed that perfuma is transgender, entrapta is bisexual and double trouble is non binary & also entrapta and hordack are a couple
They didn't confirm Perfuma is trans. Noelle specifically explained that this is not true. She said that if Perfuma was trans, she would've casted a trans V.A. for her (just like one of the Stars Siblings or the Non-Binary V.A. for Double Trouble). The only thing that is true is that her design was based/inspired in a trans woman.
No. Lonnie, Kyle and Rogelio aren't in a relationship. Thats just Noelles headcanon. Kyle x Rogelio is canon tho.
@@xfabian21 if its "noelles headcanon", doesnt that mean its true? she did write the show
@@lovewamen6152 Not necessarily.
There is an extremely popular essay from Roland Barthes called «The death of the author» which is... still a matter of discussion because it kinda invalidates the value of critique, but the point of the text is that the author of any work becomes no longer the authority on the meaning of their work once the piece of work has been published, that authority goes to the audience instead. By that point the author stops being an author and becomes part of the audience, so any comment or interpretation they express about that piece shouldn`t have more inherent weight than another comment or interpretation expressed by any other person.
In practice that means that if you want to believe Kyle ended with just Rogelio or with both Rogelio and Lonnie, whatever you prefer is ok and no matter which version Stevenson is a supporter of, both interpretations are equally valid and equally true.
THIS is the big game tomorrow in my eyes
As someone who is from KC... I take this as a massive compliment
So shadow weaver's death fits her character so well imo. She died doing the "one good thing" in her life but it's not a redemption. She never got to actually make up for what she did so in a way, her death was both selfish and selfless: she is "taking the high road" by dying heroically (saving the world) but not in a way that she can try and become a better person like catra did. SW wasn't redeemed, but at least she died doing what she loves- traumatizing catra and adora 🙃🥲
THE KISS!!
They actually foreshadowed Mika being ok in season 3 in the portal dimension. When Angella goes to leave, his last words are “Angella! I’m not....”
So interesting that you didn't think Bow and Glimmer had romantic feelings for each other!!! I actually thought they were together at first. It took me a few episodes to realize that they were only friends lol
YES I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THISSSSSSS 🤩
Love saves the universe.
Imagine Madame razz sacking a drone with her broom saying "razzle dazzle" 😂
That would be amazing!
Seeing Entrapta and Hordak makes my day better. Im happy she finally doesnt hate him. Anyway, the video was great and funny. I miss she-ra tho.
The owl house is great. I definitely recommend you watch it next
definitely
Where do you find it?
@@susannagayi3031 i mostly saw it through reactions on youtube since I don't have cable. I believe it is also on disney plus
@@xmant8842 thats me with os many shows, lol
Every time I watch people react to She-Ra it reminds me why it drew me in when it first came out. So happy to see other people liking these amazing characters and story build-up.
Omg yaasss I can't wait for this! When you said the thing about the ponytail in one of the first episodes I was so excited for you to get here, lol
you seriously have NO idea how much serotonin these videos give me. like, watching someone love something that i love just as much??? it's an *experience* to say the least. thank you thank you *thank you*
There was a prank were at the end of the show Adora said, “Wait, did we ever find out what Grayskull is?”
I love this little scene in s5:
She-ra: *lifts a tank ready to throw it at Scorpia*
Perfuma: WE DO NOT THROW TANKS AT OUR FRIENDS!!
-5 minutes later-
Scorpia: *throws a tank at Perfuma and She-ra*
She-ra: Oh so why does she get to throw tanks?!
Idk if anyone already commented ab this but anyhow, this is why adora keeps doing things on her own: she was manipulated from when she was a baby by shadow weaver to be the perfect warrior child. If adora hadnt left the horde she would have become the force captain and adventually make a lot of really important decisions for the horde. She also tries to do stuff alone bc when she was being manipulated she didnt even realize and when she finally did she realized shadow weaver didnt really care ab her and was using her for the success of the horde. Also why she was so desperate to fight the bots on her own after she broke the sword is bc she had just before that found out that she was a part of a project. And she must have felt like she was nothing and just a peice of a machine and being used again. She must have been really hurt by it bc she thought that she finally was someone who could decide for herself. Hope this helped answer some questions some ppl might be having ab adora
I was so happy Hordak and Entrapta were reunited! I cannot say enough how much I ship them!
I just LOVE how much you love Mermista and Seahawk as individuals and as a couple like I do. I haven't seen a lot of people that love them as much
They are the best 💚
Take her reaction of the kiss and multiply that by 100.
That was my reaction.
great now you have me picturing Horde Prime as Santa Clause... **pulls out her sketch book and pencils**
Snowed in, hot tea, I'm readey! I'm readey!
Can we talk about how at the end of season three Micah tried to tell Angela that he wasn’t dead but was cut off so she never found out
5:33 "Ok, Santa" is one of the funniest moments one this entire channel. Just caught so off guard by how serious and yet silly it is.
*Premieres in 60 minutes*
Me: System overload.
I think you’d really like Star vs the Forces Of Evil or Steven Universe for another animated series if you’d like 😊
Stephanie always manages to capture all of the feelings of watching SheRa. Her screaming, laughing, and crying are the best 🥺🥺
I love how literally every episode Adora either gives herself a pep talk or someone does for her. And she still thinks she is the bad guy or like… she has to do this on her own
I don’t know if you need any recommendations but it would be amazing to see you react to The Owl House. ♥️♥️♥️ loved the video btw !!
yessssssssssssssssss
I've been waiting for this video all week 🥰
I don't expect you to be excited about catradora like simple people like us. but as long as you you enjoyed the show and that didn't get in the way of your watching experience that would be enough.
Kyle and Rogelio’s ship name is Repkyle if you were wondering ;)
fun fact: in that scene were adora was in the heart and was seeing what could have been, bow and glimer were wearing one of queen angela’s earrings each
Korrasami from Legend of Korra walked so Catradora could RUN!!!!
Ponytail She Ra supremacy! Super glad you loved the finale!
Omg now I am sad it is ending 😭 but you see the most amazing thing at the end😏
OMG OMG OMG OMG THIS IS WHAT IVE BEEN WAITING FOR SINCE YOU STARTED AAAAAAA I CANT WAIT WHY AM I READY TO WATCH IT LIKE I HAVE EVERYTHING NEXT TO ME AND JUST GENUINELY WAITING FOR THE 5 HOURS TO ENDDD OMGGGG IM SO FREAKING EXCITED CATRADORA HERE WE COMENEMEMEEEEE
I already want to see it ahhhhhhhhh 😆 ohh xd
"THE OWL HOUSE" is right now only 1season, so I hope you see it, its a really good show!!!
yeah! my favourite disney show ever
Omg! I’m so glad you liked the series! The next series I think you should watch is Kipo and the age of the Wonderbeasts, but like you said you’re taking a break. I don’t know any good movies that I think you would be interested in but I have more TV shows in mind. But yeah I think the next animated kid show you should watch is the Kipo one because it really cool
"Okay, Santa." Is probably the funniest thing I've heard lol
"You're my weakness made me sob so hard!
After this
I really think you should react to Steven Universe, it's a show you'll really love and it's good
Yes! I said the same thing ;)
“Ok Santa” I’m dying! 😂
Hordak and Entrapta are easily my favorite characters and easily the best relationship.
FUCK I SAW THIS IN MY RECOMMENDED AJD GOT SUPER EXCITED but when I click on it it said "premiers in 10 hours" 💔
"you're welcome" more like "have fun in therapy for the rest of your life lol"
29:03
1: Entrapta is a non-combatant. She's back at camp tinkering with tech stuff.
2: Presumably guarding camp, since there are non-combatants there and if anyone who's out on a mission gets chipped, Prime will immediately know where they're hiding.
3: Probably also guarding camp.
"Adora doesn't want me. Not like I want her.'"
*chorus of girl in red's 'I wanna be your girlfriend' starts playing in the background*
