Ever After High REVIEW

[@siddiqsmouse5004]

The character designs have no reason being THIS good especially when their so convoluted and decorative but they pull it off. Lizzie has her hair styled with a heart shaped Bump with a crown like head piece holding it all together. Why? Because she can! Raven has ornate silver gorget adorning her shoulders. Why? Because of course she would! The characters outfits and overall looks are so unapologeticly themselves while simultaneously being very cohesive.

[@luckywolf8171]

Ikr Hunter's and brier's outfits are my fav

[@ambiguoussarcasm]

That’s because these were dolls!

[@IAteYourLastCake]

Honestly, films and series based on doll lines always have the best character designs.

[@aaamazing9888]

Nah Fr, she has so much more character development later on the show and I understand that she called her blade based on the first season, but she’s literally one of my favs, plus her outfit is literally the best design 😭💞

[@vilixerr]

Yes! People say she’s just some party girl but it really seemed more like she is that way because she is afraid of her future. Rather than “I wanna party before I sleep because sleeping is boring!” It was more like she wanted to be able to live her own life before she didn’t have much of a choice.

[@joturnerproductions]

Briar Beauty definitely starts out as a shallow character as just a party girl but as you go, you start to get a bit more depth with her when you look at the scene in thronecoming where she tells apple off about their destinies. The conversation reveals that sure, she wants to live all she can before she sleeps, but also that she has had the looming fact that she will basically be dead for years when she has her story. Her showing dangerous and risky behaviors shows her desperation for a feeling of living and her fear of what’s to come. This shows she has thought about this for a long time, way before legacy day, and that she accepted it, showing a certain level of maturity. I might be wrong, but she is not as shallow of a character as you make her out to be. Her fear and anxiety of what society tells her she has to do changes her entire behavior and how she perceives her life. Just my thoughts

[@harmonypon7380]

In the book version of Legacy Day, Raven actually RIPS her page out of the storybook of legends, which I found to be even more impactful. The books were really good, honestly. They went more in-depth about Cerise Hood’s home life as well, showing how she had to pretty much hide all the time in her old village while keeping her wolf side a secret.

[@theresadavis2004]

I just realised that if Apple gets her destiny, everybody else will be devastated. Ashlynn will lose her true love, hunter. Raven will be ruined. All the other stories will be forced to go in their original path since the main story did. And Apple will lose all her "friends", if she even considers them as such. Even if they aren't dead they will resent her. I personally dislike both her mother and the headmaster as they forced her to be a whiny brat. And snow white gets everything she needs.

[@strudel_reviews]

This is the exact reason why I hated Apple White for the longest time

So I just did some digging and apparently apple white is a bisexual with a girl named darling Charming, here's some text from the wiki "In "Dragon Games", Apple White is poisoned by the Evil Queen and falls into a cursed sleep, only to be awoken by true love's kiss. After Daring's attempt to kiss her fails, he realizes he is not Apple's Prince Charming. Apple starts choking in her sleep, so Darling attempts CPR and her kiss breaks the curse, confirming that Darling is Apple's destined true love."

[@thejudgmentalcritter6584]

I'll get to that special eventually and review it! However I think it would be more appropriate to say Apple is bisexual, instead of a lesbian. Because she does seem to still be interested in boys too.

[@_xxsagecagexx_2088]

Ok so are we gonna ignore how when raven was looking into the book seeing what her future would have turned out apple was commanding the guard to throw her into prison? And then like one page later she was chained up from head to toes looking all terrefied? Back when I saw it as a kid that scene gave me chills because apple looked so cold while doing it, I mean in the show she seems persistent about following her destiny but at the end of the show she seems more open minded about the whole thing,but the book literally showed us at what lenghts she was willing to go in order to achieve it, even after knowing raven for so long and knowing that she signed the book against her own beliefs in order for her to have her happy ending, and if im not wrong ever after high follows the tales of the grimm brother's and in the snow white tale the evil queen dies, so that scene where raven is looking all terrefied and covered in chains is way blood chilling now, but apple wouldn't be capable of that.....would she?. But then again this theory kinda gets debunked because later in the series is established that the book they had was fake and the original one was in wonderland so probably the things that they showed both apple and Raven were illusions.

She's only annoyed at Cerise for hiding even knowing she doesn't want to.

[@Obi-Wan_Kenobi]

This is so embarrassing to say but I loved this show. It was actually good but sadly never reached it's full potential because executive meddling squandered the story. Also, Dexter and Daring are 100% no cap the funniest character in the show. They also served as excellent foils to each other and had pretty cool foil relationships with Raven and Apple. Dexter is awkward but kind and he's into Raven, as social outcast. Compare that to Daring who's confident and popular but super vain. Him and Apple are like a power couple and it's a really cool mirror to Raven and Dexter's relationship. As a dude myself, I really enjoyed seeing these funny and interesting male characters on a show that had way more females because it's meant to sell dolls to little girls -which really make me question why I like it.- The show sort of shafted the male characters because they didn't fit the target demographic but I would have loved to see these two get more screentime.

[@abdulwahabalharbi6498]

time stamp: 5:05 . when u were talking about the hunstman, the way it works is that the hunstman is in multiple stories. so this means that hunter will be in little red riding hood, and snow white. however if hunter would have a sibling, then he will only be apart of one story and his sibling would be apart of the other one. just like the charming family, daring, darling, and dexter will all be put in different stories that require a prince charming. So for hypothetically speaking, if darling charming is apart of apple's story, then she will be the charming chosen for the role in snow whites tory. and if daring is apart of rosabella's story, then he will be the charming chosen for the role in beauty and the beasts.

i'm revisiting this video and i just want to point out how nice the editing is. just the way the clips shown flow so well, match the voiceover (sometimes practically lip synced), and sprinkle in direct voiced quotes from the characters at the right times, sort of like a journalism piece. it's really awesome! p.s YES, the narrators are too underrated!

[@thejudgmentalcritter6584]

Awww! Thank you!!! :D

[@markh4773]

i loved this show so much bc it represents the lgbt experience in a way, you can cast aside the path that was planned for u and live as your true self but it has that risk that you could lose the people who you love and have grown up with, wish that they would include lgbt characters but i understand that would be a huge risk as a kids show

[@OMNISCIENCE_INCARNATE]

There was the thing between apple and darling during the dragon games

[@rubentherascal7360]

Apple really got that poison fetish

[@mallahare]

i love how descendants barely has any design but ever after high goes full of with the make-up,dresses,acssories,decoration and backgrounds

[@chloepedraza280]

Both shows were my jam!!! My entire childhood I was obsessed!! I love these shows so much and the books were great too💛

[@enchanted_inventory882]

I see a lot of people hate on Apple because of how she acts, despite the fact a lot of it us because of her upbringing and things she's bewn told her whole life. I think a lot of it is because a lot of things were cut out from the books, wich gave us more insight into people's backstory. Another thing i was quite upset didn't get touched on in the show is Apple and Ravens adventure that they went on. Anyway if anyone sees this comment i recommend watching the show and reading the books

[@lunarloser09]

"...wait when did it start raining?" me too

[@f.airy.x]

I love how you talked about Hopper I love him he’s so underrated and deserved more attention

[@allieasay8384]

I was babysitting once and we watched this and I was just blown away by the interesting concept.

[@studybug.mp3]

THE WAY I WANTED TO BE CEADER FOR HALLOWEEN SO BADDDD

[@mareofmaers3590]

Re-watching your analysis (which is spot-on!) after years I only now realize how Raven's designs in those early seasons somehow always incorporate chains. Like here on her wrist, in Throncoming her arm bracelets literally look like shackles! Just a small detail I only now noticed.

[@WhimsicalGamerGirl06595]

I never did understand Daring and Apple's relationship. Like...her mom married her prince charming right? So in this....there's just a random prince that's supposed to be with Apple or....I think I confused myself

[@thejudgmentalcritter6584]

The way it's described in the show, is that the name "Charming" is a really common last name and there are a lot of "prince Charming's" in universe. Kind of like how the last name "Smith" is really common in America.

[@merge9585]

In A Semi Charming Kind of Life, Darling's little side story, it is explained that the Charming family is HUGE and they fill in the role of all unnamed princes and princesses in fairytales. They are raised to be very, very perfect and, well, charming. They are very proud of their family line, which causes Darling to hide her true desire to be the hero in a story.

[@henloworld514]

this show is such a gem; it’s a shame it had to be ended. out of all the shows I've watched, it has to be one of my top favorites. I do really hope Mattel picks it up again sometime in the future :'(

[@user-js7zw2zk1c]

I'm so happy someone is talking about this well written toy commercial, I love it when Mattel decides to pull off a charming, well written or high quality product for kids and then decide to bury them with some shitty reboot or something (?)

[@Caulisketch]

Ok when I was little, I loved this show, and so did my friends. this show was DA BOMB. LIKE BROO THIS WAS ALL WE TALKED ABT AND WE BOUGHT THE DOLLS

[@eternal_era]

Can I just say that Raven's legacy scene with her seeing what was going to happen was actually surprisingly dark, like looking back at it it basically looked like she was being hanged in the picture.

[@RizzytheWizzy]

4:28 So, about these three goats- they're actually not supposed to be based on the 3 little pigs; but instead, a lesser-known folktale called "The Three Billygoats Gruff." It's a story about three goats and a mean and hungry troll who lives under a bridge and wants to eat them. There's a character that you can see in an episode that's a reference to that troll. I think it's in an episode about how it's summer and super hot, and you can see the troll chilling under a palm underneath the bridge to the school. It was very memorable to me. Either way, the pigs and the goats are different characters- just similar because they both come in trios.

[@thejudgmentalcritter6584]

No, I know that. I'm confused my the animation felt the need to change the pigs out for the goats.

[@RizzytheWizzy]

@@thejudgmentalcritter6584 Oh! Sorry. I misunderstood

[@perrilewis180]

I think ever after high should come back. It can come back and when it should I think it has wiggle room to be more mature. Maybe some politics or some explanation of how the kingdoms of all these fairytales function together. Some world building would be great

[@MeemahSN]

Mattel won't bring it back, they just won't, maybe one movie as a one-off but nothing else will come after

[@chelseaaudreyy]

Ikr, but for some reason you’d think reboots would be more mature/more room with their writing but these recent kid show reboots have been bad.

[@MsKala]

I actually did enjoy this video. I caught Ever After High by chance on Nick and I thought it was cute. One day I found it on Netflix and well was it. I watched the crap out of it. I like all the of characters you like, but I also liked Brier. Granted her motavation was tacked on as all heck. Anyway. I'm coming back, if you're coming back.

[@soldierstride554]

The goats are from the Three Billy Goats Gruff story. The one with the bridge ogre trying to eat them but the first two younger kids say the next and older one is bigger = more food. At last, the eldest finally came and he was too strong for the ogre and was beaten up off the bridge.

[@thejudgmentalcritter6584]

I know what fairy tale they are, I'm just confused why they replaced the three little pigs with the goats at all?

[@BubblyShip]

I literally uploaded my Epic Winter review and this pops into my recommended in the same day. It's good to see Ever Afters picking up again, it's such a good show!

[@eridanampora3024]

Bruh i remember watching this show a few years ago

[@mareofmaers3590]

Looking back on all these EAH videos (and EAH itself) I rhink it's kind of intentional that Briar has such a surface level characterization at first. Both to make what happened at Thronecoming a real gut punch and because... I mean, Sleeping Beauty is not exactly a character in her own story so much as a prop. I mean, she doesn't do much except prick her finger, go to sleep, wake up, BAM, marriage (...or having kids, depending on the adaptation). Also, can we please talk about how lovely her design is? I mean her skirt is a closed rosebud!

[@WanderingSorceress]

Another hang up on this show is that Disney Channel went and made Descendants after this came out. I've actually heard people say they don't want to watch it because it's a rip-off of Descendants...

[@donnamitsuki281]

I never had an Ever After High,yet I loved the show a lot. I was truly looking forward to that Ever After High x Monster High crossover... Which sadly we never got. Tho there's material of it. After watching a video I can say for certain that what happened to this show was Disney's fault,I mean don't you find funny how the show stopped not long after Descendants came out? It's truly sad how Disney doesn't let anyone else have fairytale stuff anymore...

[@zahrak7756]

I love Ever After High and I’m soooo sad it ended. I don’t know if I’m being picky but I did notice some plot holes for example Apple (the daughter of Snow White) and Daring ( the son of Prince Charming) are supposed to be together and Daring’s story is to kiss Apple in order to save her which totally makes sense. But if Prince Charming kissed Snow White and they lived happily ever after doesn’t that mean that Apple’s dad should be Prince Charming and Daring and Apple should be related. Even though I know that that’s not the case in the series shouldn’t it be like that and so therefore its kind of a bit weird. Also in one of the seasons they mentioned that the Evil Queen and Snow White went to school together but isn’t the evil queen snow white’s step mother???? Again i know its not completely like the original story but likeee….Just my opinion tho still obsessed with the show though!

[@mysticmagic8762]

This actually make me happy that I'm not the only one who watched it lmao- I only saw EAH when there was this kid more younger than me watching this show and I got interested, I saw MH first but I can't choose between the two I love it both so yeah- But the only I can say is, EAH, MH, Barbie, RC9GN, PPG, MC, Disney (Mostly Tangled and Little Mermaid) MLP, and HTTYD and many other things I grew up watching, are all of my childhood and taught me many good things that I'm so thankful all of those shows are created :')

[@marybison3668]

Even I am a boy I love Ever After High So Much With All My Heart Especially Raven Queen And Madeline Hatter ❤️❤️❤️

[@Delfinoluma102]

It is great to see people gush over this show. It’s a hidden gem that many overlook just because it’s primarily made to sell merchandise. I can’t wait until you cover Ever After High’s ‘Thronecoming’ special. That special was the highest point of the story for me and turned Briar Beauty from a character I didn’t really care for into one of my absolute favorites! Keep up the FABLE-lous work!

[@carmenmercedes9903]

I think that the headmasters are sons of the brothers grimm. The brothers names irl are Jacub and Whilliam (I think) but these are Milton and Jiles.

[@ladabudilova9262]

Now gotta wait patiently for next seasons review) I still prefer monster high since I find their jokes funnier and man, I am really tired with princesses and fairytales stuff:’D

[@kaltogi6645]

To be fair, Ashlynn's obsession with shoes is justified. Ashlynn's mother is Cinderella, a fairytale character known mostly for her pair of glass slippers. So it makes sense for Ashlynn to care deeply about shoes, as they are what gave her mother her happily ever after and they are basically why she exists.

[@deranged_miyeon_stan]

8:01 *maybe wife 👀it's been implied that out of three Charming siblings, the one destined to be with Apple is Darling. Also why this show is amazing, REPRESENTATION!

[@chelseaaudreyy]

Honestly Mattel should see how they can shift their target audience for EAH to young teens/teens and make A LOT of money. We all love the representation and just the show in general, so it would be perfect. Descendants is over and kids aren’t buying toys as much so they should probably consider rebooting/continuing their old shows

[@Wildflwer7]

My favourite part of the show is how beautiful and detail the outfits Are and I love their faces
