Emma all like "Merlin Merlin he's our man, if he can't do it, no one can!"

[@ImperialKnight770]

Michelle Mah Arthur: YOU STAY OUT OF THIS!! Arthur, arthur he's our man. If he can't do it-GREAT!!

[@LordofFullmetal]

"I've had worse cuts itching my nose with the wrong hand" Oh nooooo, now I'm imagining Hook damn near cutting his nose off with that hook

[@creativewriter3887]

This merlin had TRUE swagger!! He was a great character!

[@pastelguts6182]

Me: merlins on the floor Emma: This ain't about him

[@ArenJohnson]

Emma could have just used her magic to take Excalibur away from Arthur, he didn't have any magic that could have stopped it. Merlin wouldn't have interfered unless ordered to and by that point it'd be to late.

[@tuananhdang7385]

I dont think you can take a that sword by magic.

[@ArenJohnson]

@@tuananhdang7385 Why not? The Black Fairy did it to Rumple.

[@efaristi9737]

@@ArenJohnson she took Excalibur from the hands of Rumple? anyways, Merlin could have been ordered before to protect Excalibur from that kind of magical attempts.

[@alexisdawnpie1057]

The sword clearly missed Hook. I guess it was just a editing error the writers made. And is it just me or does anyone else laugh at the way Aurthor runs... No just me? ok i guess i''ll be weird alone.

[@dearmalaysia]

I'm laughing at all the comments. At the time it seemed pretty cool but if I step back, there are a lot of things wrong with this season. They made Arthur pathetic, Merlin weak (this is fresh coming from BBC Merlin) and the whole Dark Hook thing was just ridiculous.

[@qwertyuiopasdfghjklzxcvbnm3093]

I agree with you. One of the only things I liked about this season was Merlin's backstory.

[@VidMediumNS]

Honestly everything about this show got really sloppy once frozen got introduced. I think it's because Disney became too invested and helped destroy it. Either by being too much of the only influence or too much copyright

[@tuananhdang7385]

Sorry, what?- She has the magic of the savior and the dark one- How is she not strong enough

[@kcwade2616]

Because Merlin has more experience using magic which trumps raw talent.

[@TheBeastr]

Because the plot demanded it from shitty writing?

[@GrecianWarlock]

This entire season was a shit show. Emma could've been so bad ass, but them writers had no idea what they wanted to do with her. This seriously makes me mad til this day. 🤣

[@marcosortega3350]

I don’t think Emma was using dark magic here.

[@LordofFullmetal]

Practice. Skill is better than pure strength.

[@MasonPerry7]

The sword missed Hook, He didn't get nicked lies.

[@samsim594]

A few years later, and Merlin works with Captain Price and the SAS to hunt down the terrorists :)

[@ohemaaamaasare9918]

r u kidding me the sword flew over hook

[@msfriendsfan4ever788]

Making Hook a Dark one and Rumple the Dark one again was a huge mistake, definetely one of the worst storylines in OUAT.

[@ellelou6517]

MsFriendsfan4ever they always have to go back to the same story line of us thinking Rumple has become good but make him evil for a plot twist but I’m not surprised about it any more

[@elysecatmull3404]

Actually, it kind of makes sense. Rumple had been the Dark One for what, 2000 years? The dark magic had become his security blanket and was pretty much all he knew.

[@deadpooldan9862]

Well, they had to give Emma a reason to fully embrace the Darkness, so she doing it to save Hook is actually something she would do, and Hook having the darkness in him is something that would have ramifications for everyone. Rumple becoming the Dark One again is something he would totally try to do if given the chance, and he was given the chance on a silver platter, which is probably something he regretted later

[@amberepling8469]

Why wouldn't Emma go and check on her mother after she was chocked?? How rude! If Snow was my mother I would for sure check on her, especially if I could have lost her. The charming family this season is minimal and lacking a lot. Too much Captain Swan for my taste, but that's me.

[@qwertyuiopasdfghjklzxcvbnm3093]

I agree. After season 3, they kind of just shoved that aside and focused too much on captain swan. One of the reasons season 5 was the weakest season(not counting season 7)

@@LordofFullmetal me and every person who has watched these cartoons as a kid. In the folklore Merlin is white. Black washing him is racist.

@@SrbijaCG you white washed all our mystery so shut up

[@SrbijaCG]

@@danyelahtabaat4808 what mystery? you mean history? Oh, that you've been lied about. History classes want to ponder and baby you so they lied and omitted the fact that your own people sold you into slavery. Plus that has nothing to do with the fact that Merlin is actually white.

[@slenderfoxx3797]

@@SrbijaCG I wouldnt call it racist but I agree Merlin was white and I'm not a big fan of changing a characters race for no reason. Whether they changed a character from asian to white, or from black to aboriginal, or from white to black. It's just lame and inaccurate. I didnt hate this Merlin though. I more so wished he was older. Now I dont know where you're from...but were taught about the black people who sold their own people for slaves as well as all the horrible things done by certain white people as well. Racism isnt just a white vs black issue but it's still part of the history as well. They dont get to he excused.
