Its time to talk about the NEW MONSTER HIGH

new instagram is @ ryrakii for more updates :))

[@ryraki]

yall im sorry i didnt use frankies correct pronouns i didnt know hmsms pls dont cancel me💀💀

[@GezzaYueQiu]

Who cares pronouns. I only see hearts making worst or better world.

[@mwa5351]

I keep doing that too, not on purpose tho I always end up correcting myself...I think its because when I think of Frankie Stien I think of saying "She/Her" LOL GREW UP WITH THE ORIGINAL I THINK ITS BOUND TO HAPPEN SOMETIMES

[@codymerrell976]

Gen 3 Monster High looks Awesome so far but a couple of things 1. They should change Lagoona’s skin and scales to sea light blue. 2. Maybe in the sequels they could bring back Howleen Clawd Twyla & Venus McFlytrap & Operetta. 3. If it helps the story bringing back Chad & Clair from Ghouls Rule. 4. Awesome to know Generation 3 Monster High dolls are coming in stores But Hope Generation 1 Monster High Dolls comes back in stores as well.

[@maxsinclair5072]

No your fine you didn’t know !!!!!! I’m so happy your back and you had your well deserved break !!!!!! ❤️

[@kawakami5724]

It’s alright raven ! Don’t beat your self up we’re just glad you came back :D

[@galaxyskeleton]

As a witch, I kind of really like the idea of Draculaura being a witch, but they didn't have to remove her personality (she's not really perky, and dramatic anymore)😩 Also where tf is Spectra? 🥲 Anyway, take care!

[@Shaowraven2266]

it was actually reviled today that they don't have the trademark to Spectra anymore. However mh has lost trademarks before and still made stuff with the lost trademark characters so. They even lost Frankie's at one point. So to me there is hope she will return still.

[@glitterv1029]

It feels like they switched lagoonas and deaculauras personality... lagoona lost her charm, her kindness, her maturity and strong lovley character vibes and got to be the querky extremly colourfull, naive and joyfull character (like the best friend in disney movies) and Draculaura lost her charm, her accent, her joy and outstanding personality and it seems like she is now a inteovert with a lot of secrets...

[@softieblood3830]

TY WHERE THE HELL IS SPECTRA

[@Man-wolf-]

Im a witch too and found her being this “secret witch” plot stupid-just keep witches as seperete species like in the og or have MH be accepting of them 😭

[@galaxyskeleton]

@@Man-wolf- yeah.. and the whole "witchcraft is a filthy human habit" reaally made me facepalm 😬

[@wig.snatcher]

honestly this feels like they learnt nothing from the reboot 1.0

[@roseberryy_]

Except with the first reboot they gave the dolls non-alt clothes, generic barbie faces, and extremely cheap fabric. Whilst with this reboot you can see they put work into it. Yes, it looks more cutesy and childish than the original, but that doesn't mean it's poorly done.

[@wig.snatcher]

@@roseberryy_ sure, i'm talking about design, not the dolls

[@roseberryy_]

@@wig.snatcher the cute designs are just the direction they want the brand to take...their priority is to engage with a new generation of fans and we should respect that. The first reboot was cute done wrong, this reboot is cute but done right. So yeah, they learnt from the first one. They learnt how to do what they wanted to do, but correctly this time around x)

[@wig.snatcher]

@@roseberryy_ And this is the problem in the first place. MH is/was MH, not another cute dolls which there already is loads of. The edgy style is the whole reason why monster high got so big in the first place, how many cutesy doll brands from 2010 can you recall that are still relevant? Honestly I feel like kids nowadays lean towards that edgy stuff even more than 10years ago

[@roseberryy_]

@@wig.snatcher And I completely agree! I would prefer as well if they stayed fierce, but this is what mattel wants to do now, so we just have two options: Either we give it an opportunity as a new thing, or we disengage from G3 stuff and leave it at that, just tunning in for the collector dolls aimed at adults. I'm for sure open to see what this gen has to offer. Even if it's not the same thing mh used to be, maybe it's good regardless 👀

[@hyp3rf0cus]

it looks wayyy too cute for monster high imo

[@finland4ever55]

A big thing that bothers me now is that Draculaura has been retconned again. Movie version is Filipino yet the upcoming cartoon she's Taiwanese. Mattel is treating Asians as all being the same and many Filipinos were happy to have a character. Now they don't.

[@MJdaDuckbear]

I’d adore lagoona if she was blue

[@ENDTHEWAR-n3y]

Omg same

[@freddiesdolls7954]

I honestly like both of lagoonas designs, I just WISH SHE WAS BLUE. She would’ve been perfect if she was blue.

[@kenthuang436]

Animated Heath looks like he is some elemental Troll that got separated from the others.

[@AllyCoxon]

the animated version of Heat looks like the villain in a heartburn drug commercial.

[@eyeseeyou228]

I rlly wish they'd do more creeproductions of old dolls lines cuz i would LOVE to continue my doll collection with perfectly in package dolls than dolls off of ebay that most of the time have smth missing or cost a lot if they r in good condition

[@midnightfox3157]

I had hope that this new monster high would be good but now it’s crushed

[@camkks]

My least favorite at least for the animation version is heath. He looks like he's gonna burn my house down for fun.

[@LaBellesGrace]

Definitely agree. There are some pieces I really like that stands out with this version of the brand, but unfortunately there are a little too many things that I also don’t like. I’ll still check it out from curiosity and hope for the best with the new generation, but thus far I’m getting the feeling that gen 3 isn’t for me. Lagoona’s voice actress reviving hate messages is upsetting and unwarranted: she isn’t in charge of the design or writing of the character. Hope all is going well for you!

[@sy-dy7ge]

YES 😭😭 lagoona was like my favorite character in gen1 but i absolutely LOVE this version of her! and the fact that she‘s supposed to be an axolotl makes her even cuter 😫🖤

[@kenthuang436]

I think Clawdeen would wear smaller glasses. Something that is similar to half sunglasses.

[@gerardtay]

I caved and watched the movie early and I gotta say, Frankie's various looks in the movie are way better than this promo pic and I actually really liked them, they're very punk but still preppy.

[@neopolitan6018]

where did you watch the movie?

[@roseberryy_]

Finally someone giving respectful opinions and not hating on it all just because it's different 😭 The fandom has really became a dumpster of fire lately, this is such a breeze of fresh air. And I agree that this Lagoona is even prettier than the original! As I said, people are only hating because she changed a lot. They are too busy throwing critiques to realize this design is not even ugly at all.

[@crystalbae0909]

The Monster High fandom has been toxic both in English and Latin American... it is not the first time nor will it be the last. Both those who are against and in favor of the reboot don't tolerate each other. It is nothing new. And it really sucks.

[@NathasyaStellaHermanus]

I kind of dislike Lagoona's new design because I'm not sure how pink supposed to make me think about the ocean but I do admit that they are not ugly at all. It would much more sense if they just develop a new a storyline around the children of the previous Monster High (gen 1), that had some potential.

[@maxsinclair5072]

Raven I’ve missed you sm I’m so glad your back!!!!!

[@ricoscreations]

Okay so honestly I loved the movie, it got leaked and I watched it. I feel like it would’ve been better had they just did a live action og monster high, now for the animation the style kinda reminds me of like Disney cartoons which is fine, I just need to see these official dolls already!!! Also really happy to see you again!!! Can’t wait to see you again, whenever that’ll be😍🥰☺️

[@lunadraws1388]

The full movie got leaked??!!

[@tiffany-chan1235]

To be honest...I actually really like them, they seriously have been growing on me a lot. Especially Draculaura, Frankie and Headmaster Bloodgood's designs. Though admittedly I feel like it's looking more Spooky Cute than the Freaky Fabulous theming of the OG Monster High series and look, I get that this is a reboot (And I'm actually looking forward to this new series more than the TV Movie TBH) but I still wanna see more of the OG's charm go over into this new reboot as much as the next fan, but I'm honestly fine with bringing in a new generation of Monster High Fans and that some fans are just trying to hate on this reboot for no good reason other than nostalgia I guess. And to be honest...I think G2 is still the worse of the 2 reboot's in my opinion at least.

[@roseberryy_]

I think that's pretty much a fact. The dolls of the old reboot had no articulation, molded on clothes and generic faces. Idk how anyone can say these new ones are worse...

[@strudel_reviews]

G2 will always be a straight flop

[@sapphirenightshade2682]

TBH I am really looking forward with this re-boot I would of preferred the revival of the OG any time, but I do understand why they did this change and who their are target audience is for. I wasn't too big on seeing this change in the first place, but now I am starting to slowly like them more than I thought, I really do like G3 Frankie, Draculara, Lagoona, Duce & Toralie more than G1's honestly. I would preferred to make them look more edgy, but that's just me. As for everything else in G3, "Am I going to like everything in this re-boot" No I'm not, "But am I going to give it a chance" Yes, and so far I'm not been disappointed on what I'm seeing & I'm still looking forward to it. At the end of the day there's nothing much we can do all we can do is just wait until the Movie/Animated Show officially comes out & just move forward.

[@flytothemountains824]

great to see you back once again :)

[@Dracubecca]

Yesssss, a new video, finally!

[@SkyAllStars]

I do like the new Lagoona in animated form. I think it didn't translate well to live-action. Frankie's look is hideous in both though; especially the hair in animated form. I like the new pronouns for them as people often change their pronouns later in life when they finally realize who they are. So that's cool. Clawdeen's glasses are also awful. Definitely need better frames! The outfits in the live action are very plain and dull. Probably a side effect of a low budget but come ON. This is a fashion doll line. Show us some fashion! Disappointing that they changed Headmistress Bloodgood's race instead of making a new Headmistress. I find that SO lazy. I suppose it's good that we do have characters that don't have to be defined by their race so they can be easily swapped to another but to me it just feels like ticking a box instead of actually caring about POC to make good POC characters. As if POC don't deserve to have their own original characters so they can have "leftover" white ones. Especially since she's now black...why can't we have an Indigenous headmistress? Or Asian? Pacific Islander or Aboriginal Australian? Latina, even? Nope, the classic "slap on paint" black. Sigh. Uninspired and boring. I'll give the new series a chance but I'll be keeping my expectations low. There's a "cheap and lazy" vibe that's not promising.

[@Jess-wf1xo]

It's nice to see u posting again!!

[@Isweartoomuch13]

Lagoona looks like Doja Cat Draculaura looks like Melanie Martinez Cleo looks like Jessi J

[@arigato4550]

Ok, so I am actually VERY impressed with these, I feel like so many MH fans are getting angry bc its different, but these changes HAD to happen. The original Monster High was only successful between 2010-2013. I will always perfer g1, but I am very open to g3 especially with NB frankie

[@WrinkCrinkBingus]

So glad to see that you “always come back” your videos bring me so much joy! Hope you’re doing well

[@tag75]

I feel like they just combined all of the old character's personality and gave it to a random new charecter and called her lagoona blue

[@kaltipurstudios]

The movie was actually really decent . I decided to watch the leaked unedited one and it was fine ngl 😭

[@skylab205]

It's not that the designs are bad but they keep trying to reboot the same characters we know and love. they changes there back story, personality, esthetic, just everything to where there completely new monsters but with the same name. They could have done so much more and made new characters instead. But no its easier to have a cash grab and use the old ones. Thats why die heart fans are upset. MH had like at least 50 characters, they can make new ones, but they continue to mess up our favorite characters. That's why fans are mad MH wasn't broken but they keep trying to fix it.

[@werewitch9466]

yay new video! I missed your dolk rankings, glad you're back and take care! Going to watch this during breakfast tomorrow muhahaha

[@ThEmoWitch]

*happy Holt noises* it's always exciting seeing your videos, man!! oh btw, g3 Frankie uses they/them pronouns

[@winxmonsterhighforever22]

So happy to see you again! I was so excuted about this, but at this point they messed up everything. The live action movie (which is probably for the older fans) is descendants 2.0, literally leaked months before the release and most people don't like it. Swapping Clawdeen's and Draculaura 's personality was deff not a good idea. Idk what even to say about poor Lagoona and Frankie. I get that the animation series are for younger audience. But another reboot? They look like 6 year-old kids and I am really upset. In conclusion, our favourite monsters are gone. I don't get the point of removing so many good characters (that you've been developing for years). I want to be optimistic but rn I am disappointed again. We deserve better for keeping the fandom alive all these years still waiting for the old MH uniqueness and originality.

[@klaw1356]

Frankies design had to be changed due to copyright, monster high used to collab with universal pictures which owns the rights to green frankenstein with neck bolts and due to them partnering with nickeloden and paramount+ for gen 3, frankie had to not have green skin and neck bolts

[@Lanadelreysfavv]

IM SO HAPPY U ARE BACK

[@lilitheswiftie8638]

I heard that they're gonna do an adult animated series with the OG Monster High. I hope it's true!

[@RyanDjikiage]

HEY FIRST RAVEN I MISS YOU SO MUCHHH

[@un1uckysh4rdz13]

Frankie goes by they/them in the reboot btw 💗

[@ENDTHEWAR-n3y]

I don't really like the new designs that much but tbh but I think it's cool that they're trying to be more inclusive by making frankie non binary

[@personalemail9187]

I’m really excited about g3. I understand it’s meant for children so they have a similar childhood as us but I’m kinda sad it’s becoming more kiddy.

[@StarStrikerTheDragon]

i mean i like that they're changing up the brand to appeal to another generation and i can imagine if my little neighbors got off their ipads and phones and played with the new rebooted dolls they'd love it, the quality and details of the clothing would be something they'd like, and i feel Monster High makes people accept people who are different then what they consider normal, Also one of the main reasons that Monster High had to reboot in 2016/2017 was because parents were not happy with how creepy and alternative the dolls were, and they were getting tons of complaints and they just remade the dolls hoping to please the parents, but they slowly failed because no one liked the the reboot. I think they're taking inspo from Pinterest because some of those outfits and hair styles are ones you'd find on Pinterest. I think they're trying to please the younger generations rather then the older fans. (Also there is this fanart the voice actor? for the new lagoona posted on her insta (im not sure if its still up) of the original lagoona talking with the new lagoona, comforting her and telling her everything will be okay and that people will love her)

[@ambiguoussarcasm]

I follow you on Instagram but I'm glad to see you back! I know you're busy but I hope you do upload more often with this reboot

[@louisebrown3121]

Great to see you back. I like the new characters. I hope to buy the dolls as well . It's not the same Monster High. But I think this version is cute.

[@Lampey22]

Yesss been waiting for this!!

[@cupcakesandbaconh1164]

WHATTY IT FEELS LIKE FOREVER SINFE IVE SEEN UUU

[@Fungoulia_]

You make me want to get lip rings >_< they look so good on you

[@Adeyume]

My personal opinion is that because I've been a long time fan, (Since monster high came out) seeing such a HUGE change feels weird, as I'm used to the originals. I'm used to their voices, their personalities, their styles. I don't like the reboot at all, but I can understand why people do, and I can respect that. They've just changed WAY to much for my personal liking. I feel it would of just been better if they said the originals graduated, and they introduced a new cast, OR EVEN had the new cast be the children of the originals. I wouldn't have been AS bothered. But that's my opinion, and I will say, it does feel fresh hearing your prospective. I'm interested as to how this will all go.

[@ivycream7228]

I know that this might not be the best movie we ever seen, but let's give this reboot a chance. besides, mh actually are/were listening to fans all along. remember the 1st reboot? (that was even worse). Mh fans needs to make up their mind, they're the ones who requested a reboot , well, reboots are definitely going to include new changes. and if Mattel wants to do that , they have their reasons. In mh we stop hate, not the other way around. (besides , the movie might actually be better than we thought)

[@gabrielfarkas3562]

Hi girl we missed you!❤️

[@midnightfox3157]

But I will say this all draculaura’s designs in the live action new animated show and the dolls I have yet to be disappointed by her

[@moonchild07613]

I was literally thinking about you a few days ago oml

[@AlSenosa]

I missed you! Gosh you look good in blonde plus you look fiercer than ever 🥂

[@aidanthepotato3974]

I think they did a good enough job with the redesigns, I'm keeping an open mid but I'm still confused why draculaura is into witchcraft.

[@eminala7380]

WELCOME BACK >:D

[@howlkingdom121]

First things first- did you get a hair cut? Or am I just now realizing this??? I love the color and the hair style it looks super cool!!

[@Ale_Creates]

I think people just need to get it through their heads that not everything in life is about them, Mattel is trying to target the new generation which into brighter, more out there aesthetics unlike the generation that was present during 2010 which was more into emo/gothic/punk aesthetics. If people don't like it then that's ok, "IT IS NOT MEANT FOR THEM." They need to stop gatekeeping and understand that things change and if we all had an open mind about it, we wouldn't feel so uncomfortable with it. For all I know, they haven't made any mistake in reguard to race, gender, nor sexuality so there is no reason to cancel this new Monster High. The dolls seem to have great quality and if people are worried that they look nothing like the original characters nor their personality......that's because it's a reboot. Needless to say I am going to grow with the brand and welcome it with open arms. I am very excited about Lagoona (for her new design and race representation since she is now from the gulf of Mexico this making her latina coded) and Deuce (for his design and his backstory, like if you don't know yet he will have 2 moms)

[@dollysneverland4651]

Welcome back, Raven 🥰

[@ivycream7228]

also the reason why Mattel choose to reboot mh again , part of it is because more investors

[@Cerise_Bianca]

I love to finally see some positivity about the new MH generation! I'm personally rlly excited about the live action movie and imo the designs are great and I don't understand why live action Lagoona gets so much hate cause she is soooo pretty!!! Now the animated series is less exciting bcs I'm not a huge fan of the character looks, but I'll definitely give it a shot!!! And I rlly hope they release dolls of the live action movie 😁, cause I need that Lagoona!

[@amirajaldin350]

Cleo look like isabella from encanto

[@HelyK.]

Wie kann man Fanpost zu dir schicken? (Wenn man kein Instagram hat)

[@superstar4662]

i can see what you mean with wanting the original dolls/lines back, but i think something important to note is that the gen1 characters and dolls will ALWAYS be here for us :) the reboot doesn't delete them from existence. I really appreciate how accepting you are, I've seen so much useless negative energy over it, and some people online just seem downright racist. (I've seen people say they made Cleo too dark... like WHAT?)

[@Bladesmessofplaylists]

some of the designs are fine but the original darker more over the top ones would be much preferred

First!!!

[@clawdmoviemonster]

Thé only thing I dislike about it is how they portray Clawdeen. I mean, she literally looks like a grandma in the animated thing wtf.. and her doll is so ugly sorry. I’m also scared about her having love interest into boys cause when I’ve heard about a reboot and that it was going to be very open I was excited to see her being lgbt

[@jessecygan286]

Eeeekkk!!

[@themaddisontoyshow9736]

And I'm 8 years old

[@nevermind3421]

Heath looks like a villain from the incredibles yikes 😭😭😭😂😂😂😂😂

[@jeremywiles8765]

Hear me out since a lot of ppl says Frankie has different parts from different genders shouldn't she be gender fluid?

[@themoonflowerfaerie]

I’m not sure that I will like it. To me draculaura doesn’t have the right personality or voice. At least from what I’ve seen. The young lady playing her just doesn’t seem to portray her innocence and adorable ways. Draculaura is my favorite monster high character, so I’m pretty particular about her. Frankie is my second favorite my character, and I don’t think this version of her is right either. Clawdeen is really cute, and I think I may like the way she is portrayed. As to Lagoona, 😬. I just don’t know. She seems like an entirely different person. I am willing to give it a chance, but I have pretty big reservations

[@rottingpumpkiin7151]

Poor heath and that tacky sweatshirt

[@bartoszraczkowski3984]

Same with lagoona

[@meleqento9565]

Hi sissys

[@finland4ever55]

And Frankie is german. but has no accent. But i'm not mad because she never had one in the cartoon mind you if she did they would have cut that too

[@audr3ylyy]

Omfg the animation is creepy, the live action is bad, I only love the storyline and plots of it, Im onlynhere for the dolls tbh

[@fer_mello997]

it have a theory that metal did this because some people were saying that the original dols were scary... I don't know if is real but I wold see the film but I can't get it way clodin have GLASSES I REALLY DON'T LIKE IT
