[@DanGamingFan2846]

I like how Willow has spent the last season, and really ever since she met Luz, discovering her true potential, getting over her insecurities, and training to be the best, most powerful witch she could be. But when faced with an apocalyptic scenario like this, where her family is in peril and her arch rival is in charge, she starts internally panicking and doubting herself again, thinking she has to keep it together for the team. And as it builds up, she starts to lose control of her magic, until it nearly cosumes her. Only by admitting her fears and letting her emotions out, does she regain control, and is able to pull through, and be a strong member of the team again. It's okay not to be strong all the time, it's okay to let people know if it's too much, and it's okay to show your emotions. Some, (like Boshca) might give you a hard time, but others, (Like Hunter and Gus) will be there to reassure you and give you the support you need.

[@revupchaotic]

I agree 100%. Willow has gotten the chance to express how she really feels in the episode. After experiencing so much and coming face-to-face with her puppetized father, she started to struggle. As of late, she has been working on being a independent and strong Witch. But when it comes to her being reliable, which she has strength in, it's just too much for everyone to seemingly rely on her alone. This episode I feel like her struggles were finally acknowledged and we got to tap into how Willow is tackling her whole situation. Willow had to repeatedly tell herself she could do it, when she has the right to be afraid and unsure of the future. Camilla in the beginning of the episode even spoke to Willow and let her know, it's okay to feel scared! She is just a kid, and she's been through so much like everyone else. I hope Willow continues to become the full Witch Willow, and that in the end she can rely on others too.

A lot of ppl who dismiss Willow don’t seem to get that her arc is fairly simple but relatable. She had a lot of self doubt, felt weak, etc. and within s2 you see her trying to change herself. Sure she doesn’t appear that often, but she’s doing some growing outside of her relationship with Luz. And cuz she’s so adamant on being strong, she doesn’t want to show weakness again, even in this horribly sad and stressful scenario

[@shanenanigans27]

@@Balls_explode_cat This is not essay length at all, lmao

[@royalarts8481]

It’s actually funny that they addressed Willow this episode because for the past two I realized she became the Mom/reliable/rock of the group when she has her own fair share of things going on. Last episode I was just amazed by her leadership and calm thinking and how she kept helping others in the background without talking about her own feelings. I’m glad they finally touched on it-especially through Gus and Hunter since they’re her closest friends.

[@leiaorganaskywalkersolo9504]

Well, they could have added Luz too, since she was also one of her closest friends. But Luz was also having a big moment with her palisman coming to life at the same time Willow was having her mental breakdown, or also adding amity since Amity and her are not the closest friends but they do have a story and a impact on each other. But I do get why they choose Gus and Hunter. Gus was there with her since day 1 and there was like a little spark between her and Hunter since they’re 1st day (even though Hunter was still on the emperor’s coven. And I also love how Hunter is the one who calms her down because right there he also expressed some of his feelings too because he wasn’t treated that good at the emperor’s coven. And then he meets Willow and the others and they treat him the way that he was never treated before in his life. And as we can see, Willow and Flapjack changed him the most. That’s why Hunter feels so emotional when he sees Willow like that. The same person who helped him change is the same person who at the moment was not feeling good. So he feels the urge to save her the same way she saved him when he was feeling down. And even tho he doesn’t say it directly. That’s the message that he was trying to reflect when he says “You guys mean the world to me” and Willow understood what he meant to say and that calmed her down. But anyways this just my point of view

[@Thatonenerd88]

I do appreciate the call out for willows feelings because we have seriously lacked willow episodes in season 2 and basically her only episode was Any sport in a storm which turned out to be more hunter based. I appreciate how much willow has grown and I love that they gave her some time to develop even this late in the show!

[@nixonbuck4246]

@Soul Wrath 2 hehehe. No.

[@justinriley]

So, to recap: 1. The Collector is basically Homelander Jr 2. Everyone on the Boiling Isles is a literal puppet 3. Hexside is now basically Lord of the Flies 4. Kikimora is still the worst 5. Odalia is exactly where she belongs 6. Boscha has been simping over Amity all along 7. Raine Whispers now needs an exorcist 8. Willow needs even more therapy than we thought 9. Hunter is basically Nightcrawler now 10. Luz finally has a Palisman

[@alexschott2092]

Agree with everything you said except the first point. The Collector may be a god living amongst mortals, but he's also far less inclined to sociopathic violence (like _The Boys'_ Homelander is and the path he's trying to guide his son down) and seems to show some care for the others that he involves with his games. Its still nowhere close to the normal, healthy viewpoint needed, but he is a god with the mindset of lonely child desperate for friends and attention. Kind of like Luz at the start of the series. With that said, I'd say the Collector is basically early season 1 Luz combined with another character from _Gravity Falls_ with similar elder god-tier reality manipulation and atypical views of how to interact with others (albeit with far less intentionally malicious motives). I won't say which character in case Elijah is reading this, but those who have seen _Gravity Falls_ know who I'm referring to. And I can only imagine the shock she'll get when she hears said character speak for the first time.

[@OtomostheCrazy]

Kikimora is based. Instead of just running and not looking back, she found disguises for both her and her Abomitron, attempted to build a new nation from the survivors, and went mad with power. Hot damn.

[@brodybenton-haskins9720]

my perspective of 6 is less her simping for Amity and more a combination of codependency and abandonment issues

[@gryphman]

@@alexschott2092 Yeah, they made it a point to show the Collector isn't actually evil, just a kid. I have a feeling Camilla is going to stop him with her mom powers. "Mama Odalia" makes it pretty clear he wants a mother figure. Odalia is just the worst choice he could have possibly made. Camilla will actually be able to figure out what he really needs.

I know Luz's emotional journey isn't over yet, but I love how, after her and Camilla's reconciliation helped her realize what she wanted in life, you can see her spark slowly coming back. On another note, the moment she had the realization that she wanted people to understand her, she officially became my new favorite optimistic goofball who has hidden depths in a cartoon ever! Characters like SpongeBob, Phineas Flynn, and Winnie the Pooh are wonderful, but they're still very stagnant characters. You know something like, say, SpongeBob standing up to Mr. Krabs, Pooh accepting that Christopher's not going to be part of his life forever, or Phineas learning Perry's secret aren't going to have a big effect on them. Characters like Todd, Steven Universe, Aang, Dory, Joy, Morty, Marcy Wu, and (spoilers, since you're still watching the show) Soos and Mabel DO go on emotional journeys that cause them to grow as people at the end, but there's something about Luz's imagination, her self doubt, her people pleasing tendencies, and how much of an outcast she feels that I connect with. Every moment she gets traumatized and loses her self worth, it's really hard to get through, but I mean that in the best way, because it helps her grow as a person. I'm really excited to see how her journey of self discovery ends, even if I know it's gonna be heavy. But I trust Dana and her team to end it in a way that's satisfying and beautiful.

I don’t think we r getting a full on relationship with the two of them. We get the beginnings of their feelings, and we know they’ve spent time talking offscreen, like Luz and Amity. But since so many things r happening, besides acknowledging their feelings I don’t think we will get a proper on screen relationship like Lumity. That’s more of a post series thing. Honestly I feel like their relationship did proceed similarly to Lumity, since it did skip over things between episodes and we only got their major milestones

[@MrWanton16]

I'm absolutely positive that we would have more development from Boscha and Odalia if we had more episodes since it was hinted at when Boscha saved new Hexide from Kikimiki and when Odalia was trying to remake the boiling isles into something better (albeit with her in charge but probably, hopefully, with the intent of having a good life for her family)

I don't think Boscha had a crush on Amity, it seems more like she had abandonment issues. Also, when she talks to Willow about being responsible for your team, not letting it fall apart and "Titan forbid you show any weakness", it reminds me of Season 1 Amity, so i think Boscha probably grew up in a very similar enviroment where she was forced to be perfect

Even after all of this, I still feel sorry for the Collector. He literally doesn't know any better and King is the only real friend he's had since he was trapped. King is the only one who understands that Collector has no malicious intent and tries to explain that what he's doing is wrong. Everyone else just threatens or and attacks him on sight, so of course he's going to fight back. I hope at some point he loses his godlike powers and gets to grow up as normal human or witch.

OK, but Luz saying all she ever wanted was to be understood just hits so hard. Ever since I switched schools after 4th grade, I’ve always seen myself as different and weird compared to everyone else, and I felt like everyone saw it too. Because of this, I felt so alone and I didn’t think anyone wanted to be my friend because of it. After I graduated, I rejoined a Discord server I was inactive in, and I finally felt like I was understood. While I still don’t feel fully understood, due to being in niche fanbases like TWEWY and Trauma Team, it was LEAGUES better than where I was before. When we’re so different compared to everyone else and no one sees anything but the bad about it, all us weirdos ever wanted was to be understood. And seeing a show have that as its theme means everything to me. That being said, considering Luz’s revelation that brought about her palisman and the imagery behind the Collector’s murals, I believe that the Collector also felt misunderstood due to his playful and chaotic nature being seemingly different from all the other collectors. It probably explains why he wanted friends all this time, especially in King. What this leads up to is that I think Luz is going to try to help the Collector realize that he wanted the same thing she wanted: to be understood. And I think Luz is going to help him find a way to be understood by either the other collectors or the people in the Boiling Isles so that everything can go back to normal and that everyone can coexist. That’s my theory about the finale.

Things I loved about this episode: Luz finally learning to accept and love herself the way her friends and family love her Hunter has some magic now Willow learning she can still be strong and show emotion Camila is still the best mom Boscha’s control freak mini-arc Matt is a decent guy now Kikimora’s mini empire arc King has really grown up Eda is the best still Belos is really villainous here, possessing Raine and using their puppet body to manipulate the Collector is honestly smart. The Collector really is shown to be a kid at heart, and a good one, who really just wants to play and have fun, but doesn’t really know how to without hurting others Stringbean was the best choice. Luz wanted her palisman to be whatever they wanted, and Stringbean chose to literally be anything she wants. It is the most thematic and symbolic choice. What I didn’t like: Itunes uploaded the special TWO WEEKS before it was supposed to be up, and then jerks leaked it more. I got the experience of viewing it spoiled by KZbin, but the episode really was very good upon my official watching of it on Disney Channel’s KZbin account this morning.

When you react to the final episode can you please acknowledge how the owl house has been great disability representation at least in my opinion. Luz's implied ADHD. The Owl Beast Curse being a great metaphor for chronic pain or chronic illness. The curse is a part of Eda forever with no cure only managing the symptoms through elixirs. And the episode where her mom gets introduced as someone who is obsessed with curing their daughter and having to learn that the curse is a part of Eda's identity. Once she accepts that she can coexist with the Owl Beast and get the harpy form upgrade. Lastly during the draining spell Eda becomes an amputee. So in total there are three represented disabilities implied ADHD metaphorical Chronic Illness and explicit amputee with prosthetic

[@mileshk8083]

There are so many things we can talk about in this episode. First of, what the Collector did to the Boiling Isles is kinda interesting, combining Weirdmageddon with the colors of Mabel's Bubble. It's funny how Camila adapted somewhat fast to the Boiling Isles, and her motherhood was crucial to all the kids. She kinda saw that Willow and Gus were getting stressed due to having a lot of things to worry about, and she saw that Hunter was focused on knowing Belos's whereabouts. But the key moment was her heart-to-heart talk with Luz, I'm glad she was there when her daughter was crying due to not knowing what to do and making mistakes and her inner conflict with staying or not on the Boiling Isles - it's funny how they are so similar in some regards. What a cruel fate of being turned into puppets, but are they still alive? Hooty was able to speak momentarily with Lillith, but we don't know why; maybe it because of family/love bonds? That can help when Luz and the others arrive at the Collector's home and try to save their families. Also, how in the Titan's name was Odalia able to escape from being turned into a puppet? The Collector is a mysterious character, he has phenomenal cosmic powers, but he's afraid of something. What is the secret behind that scribbled message; who's referred in the "should they meddle in our affairs, we'll clean the planet and scorch the air", is it the Collector or the demon realm? The only problem is that King is understandable of the entire situation and sees that they're still a kid who's been alone for a long time. King understood that seal the Collector again won't help, because they won't change how they feel inside, with the heart remaining in turmoil and the anger simply not vanished. I can't see a road ahead to stop this madness and save everyone... New Hexside was certainly not what I was expecting with the new rule, under Boscha, and Mat Tholomule being the rebel and devise multiple plans of helping others for the future was really good. He's getting points for new development. As for Boscha, I can't believe she was still that delinquent witch who just wanted to rule school and when things went wrong she wanted Amity back in her group, just like in the old days. She didn't know that Amity has grown up, while Boscha was left behind. If we could had a new season of the show, maybe we could've had Boscha have a redemption of some sorts, but I'm glad she was able to pull a last moment good side, fighting against Kikimora. I loved the story behind Ghost's bond with Amity, of not knowing what did she wanted to be, and that kinda helped when Luz realized her true wish - wanting to be understood; it's a strange but a powerful wish. All her life, Luz was a little light that wanted people to see her, but nobody understood the reasons behind this. Then when she arrived at the Demon Realm, she really grew up, made friends, learned magic, found love, and through time, the denizens watched and discovered this 'light'. She was lost after being drown in guilt, but her mother helped cleared the path, and that's what a mother should do. Finally, Luz's palisman has been born; I kinda like the name Stringbean. I love the little orb in its tail, the idea of a shapeshifting snake reminds me of Vee and the color scheme is simply perfect. Camila had a beautiful reaction, I just hope Eda has it too. Now please, for the love of Titan, don't you dare do anything to Camila's babies. Of course I couldn't left behind Belos. It's horrifying the idea of still having a couple of Grimwalker corpses lying in his lair, and the allucinations of his brother and the other Golden Guards were great in showing us that he's not in a good mental shape. However, it was heartless the way he possessed Raine's puppet and the way he was able to put the Collector back into his control by showing King and Luz's group. I don't like the way the Collector said they wanted to play a new game. I'm not ready for the finale! Luz, King, whatever your plan is to save the Boiling Isles, I can only say: May your hearts be your guiding key.

I love how much wish fulfillment happens in this episode. We see Camilla have the same reaction to King as Luz did, we learn more about Amity getting her Palisman, Willow gets some time to shine more, Camilla makes peace with her mistakes and embraces her inner geek, and Luz finally understands what she wanted and receives her Palisman. Season 3 might not be long, but it sure lives up to and surpasses all expectations.
