Its funny, its a show set in a world of demons and monsters, yet to me one of its greatest strenghts of the show is how...wholesome and loveable it is. The show never feels...cynical to me, decpite the sarcastic jokes. Maybe its cause Luz is such an optimistic bundle of joy which sets the tone of the show as a whole idk but its something I love. There are serious moments, disturbing shit, genuine villians, important messages, sarcastic humour. But the world doesnt just feel heavy or hopeless. Its frankly amazing. For the record im not saying there is anything wrong with heavy moments, far from it. But the shows general tone just has this optimistic feel too it and frankly right now thats incredibly welcome.

[@linesinmotion]

This is also another really good perspective on the show, it always has this hopeful feel about it which is so infectious and leaves you finishing every episode wanting more of this bundle of joy main character (except maybe the ending of episode 18 haha!) Things go wrong for Luz all the time, she messes up a spell or she gets caught up in something she probably shouldn't, but it's so entertaining to watch because of that optimism and ... realistic? reactions she gives.. Any other young girl would be terrified travelling into a hell realm, but Luz absolutely loves the place!

[@Tintelinus]

@@linesinmotion Luz messes up a lot and can get both herself and others into trouble. But she very rarely if ever does it out of malice, she just doesnt think it through which I think makes it endearing rather than annoying. Plus as someone with ADHD god can I relate to fumbling into a mess with no ill intentions Xb.

[@812558]

This. I've noticed a running trend with animation aimed at a slightly older crowd trying to assure their viewers that their work "isn't for little kids" leaning way too hard into mean spirited humor, "tropes are bad" writing that seems to try to be "smarter" than its genre is purely through lampshade hanging and insulting other genre works and bleak - yet shallow - world building. Now you can totally make a good show that is dark and cynical in its writing and world building...but "dark" doesn't automatically equal "mature" and, when everyone's output seems so similar, it's really nice to have something with *actual* mature themes and subjects that doesn't treat itself like it needs to be grimdark and meanspirited to cover them.

[@philly_sports1558]

I agree. So much heart and wholesomeness is provided Luz being such a lovable protagonist.

[@chefboiarby304]

@@812558 That reminds me of Amazon Prime's "The Boys." It's a show that is a satire both of modern day American culture as well as the superhero genre. It definitely tries to be clever and edgy while carrying a very cynical tone throughout with lots of very dark moments, and yet it feels very refreshing and enjoyable. I think a big part of this is that the show has an ensemble of compelling characters and develops them very well.

The Owl House is probably my favorite show out there. I'm heartbroken it got cut short, but the fact that it's still so amazing after Disney clipped their wings is a real testament to the talent and devotion of the creative team

I'm so in love with this show! As an aspiring animator, I wish to make characters that act in a way that looks as natural and enchanting. I could name thousands of scenes where I just wanted to replay everything over and over again so I could break it apart to hopefully understand how it came to be so astounding

[@linesinmotion]

One of the great things being a creator nowadays is that, whilst there IS loads of competition, there's just so much more content to be influenced from, there's so many animation projects happening out there now that you can't help but be inspired, and TOH definitely charmed me!

I think one of my favorite things about Owl House is the opening. It amazing me every time just how it so completely it captures the heart and spirit of the show. The song is upbeat, but also just a tad creepy - like the Boiling Isle itself. On top of that, the character animation on displease is phenomenal. how anyone could not immediately want to watch the show after seeing the op is beyond me.

[@slipshodbones2930]

The Owl House's comedy has always landed sweet spot after sweet spot in my heart, and I couldn't agree more of how much of a joy it is to watch because of well.... everything. It builds on the foundations of what makes a good fantasy and teen story, and just executes these so well. But most of all, I'm a straight guy but it is SUCH a blessing that this generation of kids get to have this in their childhood and teach them about gender identity. The greatest thing I will always appreciate about this show, is how it depicts Luz and Amity's relationship and how normal (as if high school romances are ever normal) it is just to fall in love and be in love. I so wish my generation had a Disney show to tell us that something like this isn't just okay but is also completely normal.

@@linesinmotion Yeah, seeing so many different characters interact in different group formations through season one is a ton of fun! Thank you for making this video.

[@NinjaCodeman]

The thing I was excited about Miraculous Ladybug's Chloe for was the lesson you don't see in kids shows that bullies are people too, and that even bullies can change. The speculation to her becoming a hero was that she would eventually start to become nicer and all the bad things about are explained in a way that you see why she's nasty, how she could be a better person, but the handling of her character pails in comparison to Amity. Both of these characters have parents that are elite, and both of them are mistreated emotionally by at least one parent (For Amity it's both), and both have a moral compass that is hidden behind their need to be the best, and carry that they are better than others. But where as Amity starts seeing how she effects people and changes for the better, Chloe is written off as irredeemable by her own writers and pushed to be worse because they say she can't be a better person. I fell in love with both of these shows equally fast, but only one of them has the talent to actually go places and keep the characters interesting and more than two dimensional. I wanted ML to tell children that even bullies can change, and maybe they aren't little monsters. But The Owl House not only does it better, but with more realism, which is funny because it's a cartoon about magic and fantasy.

[@linesinmotion]

I actually need to get around to watching Ladybug (made animation fan, i know 😅) But this is definitely a character trope I enjoy, and TOH crew have done a lovely job with Amity, i agree!

[@NinjaCodeman]

@@linesinmotion It is definitely worth the watch. The story sort of goes stagnant in the parts you really want to advance, but the cgi is amazing in my book. Come a long way from Reboot and Code Lyoko. Supposedly the next season is supposed to be more story focused so fingers crossed it picks up.

Well said sister. However there is one thing I feel I must disagree with you and that’s Hooty. I absolutely love that Annoying Bird Tube. He’s literally breaths life to the Owl House and he’s annoying with a purpose, but what intrigues me more is how he works. Like did he come with the house, or did he take it over? I think it’s safe to say most of us saw the way he made short work of the Emperor’s Coven who are supposed to be the best of the best and we even saw him hijack one of their bodies like a sock puppet. I mean what even IS he? I gotta know!😳

I just find the gag of everybody in the house finding him annoying to be so funny, I had to join in 😂 Can't wait to see Lilith/Hooty interactions in season 2, no doubt they'll be just as funny!

The Owl House feels so much like a dearly loved project by everyone involved. The world building and consistency building is amazing even with all the chaos and seemingly crazy monsters and magic going on in the show. Something many shows fail at is hitting the right notes of what are limits and possibilities which quickly deflate any moment of tension or drama. Every episode feels alive. The characters feel like people who were observed and written about. It's seriously an amazingly well done show and I love it.

Amazing video. I never expected The Owl House to be so good when I first started watching it off of a friend's recommendation. At first I loved Luz and her genre-savvy yet bubbly and optimistic attitude, but as the show progressed my favorite part became Amity and her slowly opening up to genuine friendships. I can relate a lot to her need for privacy and her fear of judgement, and it's inspiring to see her overcome it. Also, I'm not usually huge into shipping but OMG LUZ AND AMITY ARE SO CUTE TOGETHER IT IS TOO MUCH FOR ME! Overall this show is wonderful and it's been a beacon of joy for me in these very trying times. I can't wait for season 2.

There's one element they borrowed from X-Men that works brilliantly. One thing X-Men writers discovered quickly is that Wolverine is the most unlikely possible father figure, so if you put him in circumstances in which he's forced to act as a father figure to someone, the result is awkward, cute, funny, charming, and touching. Eda from Owl House borrows this beautifully. She's more or less the last person on Earth you would want acting as a surrogate mother figure for an impressionable teen, and the result works the same as when Logan does it in the X-Men.

[@skiesquiggles7319]

The quality of this video is... literally top teir. I was consistently blown away by the thoroughness and skill of the editing here. Couldn't agree more with the content of the video aswell, love this show and couldn't be more excited for season 2!

[@linesinmotion]

Thank you!! I'm glad you liked the editing, it was a lot of fun at times (if not challenging too haha). And i'm eagerly waiting for season 2 as well 😊

[@soundsofstabbing3627]

The Grom episode was amazing and it was really cool to see Lumity become canon but some of my favorite Lumity lines were from the sports episode like the comments on cute uniforms and "wow... sports."

[@Hi_Names_Nat]

This is such a good summary of why I love the show, but I think there's so much more that could potentially be talked about in season two. The show's jump to being more serialized, the representation of trans and non-binary characters in Raine, the way Luz and Amity's romantic relationship is written to be so much more grounded, real and sweet, giving us (imo) the best LGBTQ relationship in all of western cartoons so far, and the way the plot ducks and weaves around itself in incredibly brilliant ways that hint at the show being written much more for older audiences. All fantastic things that could be deep-dived, this show has absolutely so much to reflect on and appreciate about it.

6:50 This Gus edit was brought to you by The Oracle Coven. Coming back here after Season 2 and the first third of Season 3 is quite nostalgic. We really had no idea what we were in for. I can only imagine how this video will make us all feel after the series is over.

[@plushietwinninjas4990]

One if the reasons I enjoy it is because of the theories. After going through gravityfalls it had a fusion of hilarious humor and theories for some audiences. After the show ended it felt like The Owl House took up on the theories while Amphibia took on the humor. But that's just my opinion either way both of the shows are amazing

[@esfdoggo399]

I really do love the show and how unique and quirky it can be. Dana and the team really made something here. Hoot hoot

[@linesinmotion]

They did indeed! Makes me even more excited for season 2!

[@BlackReshiram]

At least it's fitting with this spooky month haha, but thank you for supporting!

[@Tykool]

Wow, can we talk about the editing in this video? I loved it so much and it really stood out the me. It was very entertaining to watch, great work!!

[@linesinmotion]

😭😭 Thank you!!!! I find editing to be one of my favourite parts of video making, I'm glad people seem to be liking it, much appreciated!

[@525Lines]

Wendy's such a perfect voice for that character. I mean, I thought, "That's Wendy Malock," the second I heard it but great casting.

[@linesinmotion]

Totally agree! Wendy IS that role, I couldn't imagine anyone else voicing her now

[@weirdowithwifi1860]

Not gonna lie hearing the word "isekaied" made me thumbs up straight away, it's so great to hear someone talk the same way I do and opinions aswell.

[@TheNonameHousehold]

It even feels like is ok to like the show for different or even unrelated reasons than others or most people, I think this show is universally relatable.

[@diodio9676]

toh literally makes me so happy. i can’t believe they’re ending it. ik she said there’s hope for spin-offs and shorts but its not the same. currently crying :’)

[@jefferynatter6143]

Oh thank god, I’ve been looking for an analysis video like this on Owl House. It quickly became one of my favorite shows of all time. Thank you for making this, also the editing you have is something magical in it of itself. It’s clear that you had a passion with this, keep up the amazing work!

[@linesinmotion]

Absolutely no problem at all, I loved making this video! Thank you for this lovely comment :)

[@michaelpascal9845]

I WANT SEASON TWO NOW!!! However made this good job

[@linesinmotion]

I'm in the same boat - thanks for watching!

[@ExperimentoNarrativo]

Great video, very informative. Also, I love this editing!! The Owl House has lots of potential, and I'm already looking foward for the next season

[@linesinmotion]

Thank you, your words mean a lot! And same, i'm getting itchy waiting for a new season already haha

[@charlesallen]

Came just to see a video about how fun the The Owl House is, and found a well-thought out opinion piece that was edited very well. Great job!

[@linesinmotion]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you very much 😊

[@reynbow9841]

This is SUCH a good analysis video,, I’d usually get bored but this one was really interesting

[@linesinmotion]

Phew, my biggest fear was the video not being engaging enough, but people like you give me a nice little reassurance! Thanks for watching!

[@Sonia_xoxo]

The representation in this show is amazing and I love everything about it 😔✨

[@linesinmotion]

Same, I really love what Dana and the team have created for so many to feel represented, it's so heartwarming hearing people say "wow, they're just like me!"

[@Sonia_xoxo]

@@linesinmotion yeah same!!! It’s so good to see a Latina character play such an important part in a cartoon, not only Latina but she’s bisexual I really see myself in Luz 😔✨

[@R4ggedyM4n]

Now S2 needs to do one simple thing. Have Luz and Amity go on a date and become gfs. Bonus points if Luz doesn't realize it's a date until the last second.

[@linesinmotion]

Oblivousness to being crushed on can be such a fun trope, don't get me wrong I imagine Dana will do as much as she can to fully canon-ise (that's not a word, but it is now!) Lumity... But I find Luz being slightly obvious so funny and I hope we get a bit more of it... Especially if we start to get Lilith & the twins in on the know too ... That's just asking for chaos.

[@chillysaurus5398]

*I loved it! :) The editing, narration, and slight jokes were wonderful! ✨I really hope this channel blows up :DD*

[@linesinmotion]

Thank you, I appreciate this lovely comment! 😊

[@khattriya]

okay whoa now the high-quality editing of this video really surprised me. I hope your channel gets the attention it deserves soon. We can definitely see the amazing effort you put into this video. And man, you didnt have to go the extra mile and put all the names of TOH crews and the links to their works in the description like that but you still did. Came here to gush over how good TOH is but damn i ended up gushing over how much work and effort you put into your work. Hats off to you!

[@linesinmotion]

Wow, thank you so much!! This comment made me smile for ages, I'm glad you enjoyed the video :)

[@lucilemoussier6012]

Oh my your video was just so cool ! I’m a French art student still learning a lot of things about animation, I actually hope it could be my job one day, and your video about this show just gave me so much motivation !! The way you explain it, your narration, the argumentary and that fluid editing, this is just so cool to watch. Glad to be one of your first subscribers, keep going your work is so well done ;) (Also sorry for the possibly bad writing)

[@linesinmotion]

Motivation is definitely a powerful tool!! I'm very glad this video helped, I'm sure you'll do great in your artistic future! Thank you for watching and commenting and your English was great!

[@justradiclesandco]

This is a pretty great video! The editing was really smooth and your analysis was really great. I really love this show and the depth it has, and I can’t wait for the next season!

[@linesinmotion]

Thank you very much, I'm glad you enjoyed it! I'm eagerly waiting for season 2 as well

[@thepurplezoroark7320]

This video is incredible! The editing, your narration and commentary, and your analysis are all amazingly done. It makes for very watchable and incredibly entertaining content. I can hardly believe how underated this channel is, it's downright criminal! And you deserve so many more subscribers. You're already one of the best out there in my eyes and I can't wait to see more of your work!

[@linesinmotion]

Oh my word the smile I had on my face whilst reading this, thank you SO much for the lovely comment. I can't wait to make more videos for you guys the support has been so overwhelming!

[@PhantoMace2012]

Here months after the series finale aired. I am so happy I know this show, and am so glad that everything that was said in this video still holds up for the rest of the series!

[@ralffe3465]

I'm learning animation as an amature and the animation in this show is so amazing and complicated. It also has a connection with me just like how Gravity Falls connected with me too. I literally never thought I would like it when the poster came out but I had Disney and I decided to watch the pilot and I fell in love with the show. Hopefully I can get my TV box fixed before Season 2 starts. Shows like The Owl House with all these complex animations makes me try new styles and even experiment with my OC design.

[@sunshineforever537]

Was binging Owl House videos cause I miss the show and I want to say I think this is one of my new favorite video essays, even beyond just because it’s TOH-related. The editing is slick and creative, your voiceover is calming and pleasant to listen to, and the little bits of flair and humor here are all delivered perfectly.

[@neep365]

I love the super colorful fight scenes, it feels like a light show

[@PauloCazaresBelman]

idk why but this series has something that made fall in love with it the moment I saw it, from scenes like the “ay que lindo!!!” and the grom dance at the end (a masterpiece in my opinion 🤩) to the design of characters like king, amity, luz, etc. (Disney really needs to make some “king” plushie to sell that would be amazing ‘cause I want one 🤩🤩🤩😅) anyway idk about you but when I saw the first episodes it had some magic that sparked some curiosity towards that magic, it just loving and I really think that Dana Terrace and the crew made a great work making their show having some sort of “real” magic on it ✨✨

[@PauloCazaresBelman]

btw you make really cool “essay” videos I like those kind of videos (more when they are about stuff I’m interested 😅)

[@linesinmotion]

King plushies would be AMAZING!! I've seen a really long Hooty plushie online which made me laugh 😂 But I 100% agree, the same have done such a lovely job with this show! But thank you very much!

[@PauloCazaresBelman]

@@linesinmotion yeaaaaahhh the Hooty plushies are dope too 🤩🤩🤩 I'd see one in a clip of the last stream that dana and the crew made and Luz (the storyboarder 😅) had one Hooty plushie around her neck and I was like "I NEED ONE 🤩🤩"

[@giselle3964]

Your work is so underrated!! I loved this essay video and i agree TOH is amazing and we stan our favorite owl lady

[@ytsejam58]

I just want to pause to say I LOVE how you're editing things like text into the show to highlights things you say, and using things from the show to transition into other things. That's... just very clever visual editing.

[@linesinmotion]

Thank you!! I may have put waaayy too much thought into the editing and transitions at times haha, but I'm glad to see it's paid off so much and people seem to like it - thank you for the kind comment 😊

[@koketsok1513]

i watched this before looking at the sub count,when I finished I expected 334k at-least as thats the benchmark for this level of quality .I was painfully surprised ,not that sub counts relate to quality.Despite not watching the show or really any Disney related animations in years I really enjoyed this video essay ,as know I have the show on my radar to watch. I wish you well in your future pursuits.

[@linesinmotion]

334k, that's certainly a high goal haha! But thank you very much, comments like these are always a joy to read!

[@koketsok1513]

@@linesinmotion cool,just keep on making and with enough time,people will be anticipating the next release.

[@chiwitto]

Ok but your editing skills????? You're so talented this video is amazing 💞💝💗💗

[@linesinmotion]

Thank you so much! 😭 I've still got a lot to improve, but comments like these are always lovely reminders to keeping going!

[@realsanmer]

Another thing that I particularly enjoyed, that I realised after finishing the season, was how the show tackled *school* : on one hand, we have Eda making some sarcastic yet real complaints about the school system, like how it makes children too submissive and doesn't allow them to explore their potential to the fullest, something around those lines. *However* , it also demonstrates how important it is for kids to be around people their age (when Eda sees those two students having fun, she says Luz would love it here), as well as showing that it's important for them to have an actual education: King literally tells Eda that Luz could have a better shot at being a witch if she went to Hexside instead of having her be her only teacher, to which Eda agrees. It's nice seeing modern cartoons showing both sides of school and education, instead of just saying "scHOOl SuCks".

[@linesinmotion]

YES! That is something I really liked too, it strikes a really nice balance in that regard! Damn, wish I would have mentioned this in the video somehow haha

[@yellowdsduck]

The editing is amazing! I feel like your channel is going to blow up soon.

[@linesinmotion]

Haha, thank you for the support! 🦉🏡

[@aonewally]

I was so closed minded about watching other Animated shows aside from Steven Universe. Because SU was (and still is) my favorite show of all time and I never believed there could be a show as good if not better than SU. But then... The Owl House came along... Something... Happened when I saw this show. It's just... A way of life for me now. And I adore this show and came to realize that I can always have multiple favorites of anything! Cartoons, Movies, Games, etc! And as of right now... Steven Universe & The Owl House are my 2 favorite cartoon shows of ALL TIME! Heck not even cartoon shows! Best shows for me of all time! (Hilda & Avatar are pretty close tho) So much that I'll make a video about it soon. I enjoyed this video and hope to see more from you! Cartoons are my life! I breath animation everyday! It's a way of life for me. Can't wait to see more in the future. "Here we are in the future!"

[@linesinmotion]

Hilda, Avatar, SU and TOH are all VERY good choices! I'm glad this show resonated with you and that you're enjoying it so much!! Here's to a great season 2!

[@aonewally]

@@linesinmotion To a great season 2 indeed! And for many future seasons as well! Let's hope it doesn't get canceled from dumb homophobes and religious moms.

[@linesinmotion]

@@aonewally That's my only fear tbh, not having further seasons! It seems to have gained a LOT of good traction for Disney online however, and it'd look really bad on them to cancel one of their first shows that has lgbt leads.

[@aonewally]

@@linesinmotion Let us hope to avoid that outcome. I have faith in the creator Dana. And hope that she is smart enough and won't let the show get cancelled due to stupid backlash. The world is changing for the better. More accepting and more wholesome. And it's time for the people to change as well. In the words of wise skeleton... "You can always be a good person. If you just try"
