THINGS I LOVED IN THE OWL HOUSE FINALE

* I’ve seen a lot of people say Belos’s death was anticlimactic and it was!! Because the bastard didn’t deserve even an inch of glory or to go out in a cool way!! Instead the land he poisoned and tried to destroy uno reversed him so he could get pathetically curb stomped by those he personally tormented.

* Luz looking down at Belos in disappointment and disgust as he melted JUST LIKE the ghost/hallucination of Caleb did.

* Luz saying she was the good witch LUZ instead of LUZURA!!! Self acceptance and shedding of masks we love to see it

* Acknowledging that yeah forgiveness and kindness is great but it doesn’t always work!! So many shows recently have solved every conflict with those two concepts and it’s just not realistic. Some people cannot be saved.

* In the same vein Belos committing to the bit and remaining a genocidal jackass instead of trying to “redeem” himself or let others do it for him.

* PALISMAN CARVER HUNTER. EDA’S DAD PASSING ON THE ART TO SOMEONE WORTHY AND HUNTER DOING SOMETHING HE LOVES AND IS CONNECTED DEEPLY TO.

* The matching Flapjack tattoos!!

* Darius immediately complimenting Hunter’s middle school emo boy wolf shirt

* BAMF RAINE

* The fact that Camila still had the pride pin on in the epilogue as a middle finger to Disney but that means canonically she’s been wearing it for 4 years straight. (Ha)

* Belos, trying to spread his literal and metaphorical rot to Luz at the last second to take her down with him and being completely unable to touch her do to her embracing the Titan’s magic instead of abusing it like he did.

* The giant dragon beast Belos being petrified HAHA HOWS IT FEEL

* “We’re humans! We’re better!” Belos exclaims, currently a pile of bone goop while his fellow human Luz has had sick magical girl transformation and is also distinctly nonhuman at the moment.

* Lilith opening a museum with HOOTY AS THE CURATOR

* HARPY LILY HARPY LILY

* Raeda swapped earrings

* EDA HAVING A GODDAMN HOOK FOR A HAND AND BEING A HEADMASTER LIKE BUMP

* Kings collar says “KC” now for King Clawthorne

* The Titan has the Archives as it’s crown just like the Luzura doll crown King wore from episode one.

Hunter had his final moment, he rejected Belos with every fiber of his being, his body, his words, his hopes and dreams. Hunter already said his goodbye.

Link to Dana’s tweet that confirmed it!

Luz is wearing the striped shirt that beta luz/test animation luz wears.

Eda is wearing the earring Rain loses earlier in the episode.

It's giving me all the She-ra jewelry swap marriage vibes.

And Luz's scholarship award is signed by Dana Terrace.

“Aye. They were heroes. But you can be a hero and still be wrong.”

He asks to hold him while he sleeps but when King is uncomfortable he backs off and just accepts it and suggests a compromise instead. He doesn’t throw a big tantrum or anything, just gets salty about Luz.

Even when King leaves he doesn’t grab it and hold it anyway, he doesn’t even grab it after he saw King conspiring to take him out!

Idk, it’s a really small detail but I think it really shows how much The Collector actually likes and respects King

“I tried to save your soul!” 

While the camera focuses specifically on the knife. 

The fact that he can’t hurt him, even though Caleb is literally here because of Philip’s own mind projecting him. The fact that directly after trying to hurt him, Philip’s body starts to fall apart.

This shot in its entirety. Almost as if he’s bowing down while Caleb looks on coldly. Again–this is Philip’s own manifestation of Caleb, and yet this is the brother he sees. He sees him as steady and unyielding, unsympathetic.
