Every Amaya Scene In The Dragon Prince

The relationship between Amaya and Grenn is so cute. It’s like he’s her baby brother.

​@@2345matit's not a friend zone. there's nothing romantic between Amaya and Gren. you need to grow up and accept that men and women can be friends without any romantic or sexual interest being involved.

Me too, I really love her character. When she was captured I was like 'I know you have to get the dragon prince back but...where is Amaya-'

[@lililimo05]

Same 😎👌🏼

[@skyhideaway]

i love that Amaya is a disabled character in a fantasy setting, with no fantasy "replacement" for her disability. I've seen a lot of characters who can basically function like able-bodied people, because of magic or sci-fi tech acting as a stand-in for their disability. but Amaya is a human with no magical powers, she's not a mage like Callum or Viren, but she's still a capable and well-written character who can kick ass. also love that not only does she have a translator, but her family and close friends seem to either already have learned sign language for her benefit, or are trying to learn sign language. it's really heartwarming.

[@michaelbrowne3088]

If there is such a stand-in, I doubt she'd use it.

They showed her pupils disappear! How else were we meant to interpret that?

[@pollyanna0014]

TheDragonPrinceOfficial account answered an ask on tumblr about this. She was blind for a little while, but they didn’t have time to show it. Apparently there was going to be another scene of Janai helping Amaya as her sight slowly returned, but it never got past the brainstorming stage, since there wasn’t enough time for it in the episode.

[@randomtigermaniac3989]

Meh

[@sarahwithanh9758]

I am currently studying to be an ASL interpreter in college. I love that in scenes where there is no interpretater, we don’t get subtitles. My brothers all called to me to translate what she was saying in that prayer scene and I told them that it wasn’t translated intentionally. I think it shows hearing people what being deaf is like, in a sense, because you don’t know what she is saying, you’re missing character motivation and what she’s saying. Deaf people have that happen all the time in real life. After I explained this to them, I did give them rough translations. I’m not a good enough interpreter yet to do full translations, and it can be a bit hard to understand the signs when you’re use to seeing them as smooth motions (this is pretty choppy, which is understandable). I only gave them the translations because they asked nicely though, haha. This has to be one of my favorite representations of a deaf character in media. She isn’t relying on interpreter to do what she needs to do, HEARING people are relying on her interpreter. She is capable alone, and that isn’t a common thing to seen in media. It’s super cool.

[@impactframes6514]

I got interested in this show because I'm trying to write a deaf character for one of my stories. The thing is I don't know much about Deaf culture, and I know it'll take more than watching one show but I'm willing to learn!

[@sarahwithanh9758]

@@impactframes6514 I would highly reccomend trying to involve yourself in the Deaf Community if you can! My experience with Deaf Culture is incredibly positive, and most people are so happy to help you understand them when you make an effort to use their language. You can learn so many beautiful stories from them. A lot of people in the Deaf World have had pretty sad childhoods (especially the older generations) so do try to be mindful of them and their feelings, and I'm sure you'll learn a whole lot! :D
