Thoughts on the show from someone who joined this hell site for pjo:
- don’t love what they did with Gabe’s or Sally’s characters. So much of Percy’s story is how miserable his life is before even being a demigod and how much he ONLY has his mom. This is what motivates him to even go to the underworld. Just to get his mom back. His only support system. One of his only friends. Without her there’s only Gabe to go home to and that’s not an option for Percy.
- obsessed with sally trying to corale the Minotaur with the red jacket. Yeah that’s funny
- Grover is so cute what a baby
- wish they kept some of Percy’s little accidents and incidents because his isolation was about more than just him seeing stuff. He was constantly defending his actions just just his sanity. Adding this element would def add to the stakes of Percy’s academic performance and even just fitting in
- literally everyone was such a good actor tho no complaints
- but I’m always gonna complain about the effects really this show should’ve been animated
- do love that they mention how sally could afford that beach house because I don’t think they ever say in the books
- logical?? Was that the best song they could think of for sally??? Why was she sitting in the rain like Poseidon is the god of rain?? Weird details and wish they would’ve refocused their time on her established character
- Gabe’s random friend apologizing to Percy like broooo u know who ur friend is and u ain’t doing anything? Actually hilarious with the way Gabe’s character was butchered tho
Overall I was very surprised by how much I loved it. Like obviously the critiques are small baby details because the rest of it was pretty well done!
