Dude

Where did the themes go???

I spent the last 3 chapters just going "hey, remember when this was about a struggle against oppression and class divides and discrimination?" It all just... Vanished and like 3 new forms of magic took its place

What happened with Mel? What was her plot even ABOUT theme-wise this season?? What was that ending with Ambessa????

What was that mess with Caitlin's character? She was ping-ponging between going fascist and actually she's just Caitlin same as ever and is immediately forgiven

Everyone forgives each other too quick

The avenger's level threat at the end to force Piltover and Zaun together without really resolving the political and social tensions that drove this whole thing was... A choice. A bad one if you ask me

Viktor held true to his character of "I'm using hex-tech to help people and especially help those who need it in the undercity" with an off-putting undertone for a WHILE and was good, up until Jayce basically killed him and then he's all for erasing humanity?? Just like that? "I just spent days putting all my energy into saving the beast-man, and asked Singed to leave, but actually, now that the commune was destroyed in one blow by Jayce, to hell with humanity, let's go doctor! To make the hive mind!"

It felt... Wrong

Jayce's character was also handled... Confusingly

And the time loop of Viktor making Jayce magic-obsessed so that they can work together and then he can almost die and become one with the hex-core and save humanity and Jayce becomes doomed so he can change the trajectory of his life again so that Jayce comes back to almost kill him to kickstart the sharp descend and only talk once almost everyone's dead to... Undoom himself?????? Teach himself a lesson that going down the path he himself set up though Jayce was wrong??? It makes zero fucking sense

The whole break up and make up of Cait and Vi is so rushed in every angle. Vi barely found out about Cait having another girlfriend. They split paths and Vi was immediately emo mode. Then they forgave each other immediately

Same with Vi and Jinx, their whole thing was rushed as hell too

How did Zaun even reach that perfect peace in the alternate universe? They're making the case that without hextech, the discrimination would've just... Dissipated and even Silco would've turned over a new leaf and just... How so? The political and social issues between the Lanes and Piltover was much older and much bigger than hextech. Maybe if they'd CONTINUED EXPLORING THAT PLOTLINE it could make some modicum of sense

Everyone flipped like a pancake from one second to the next

In terms of seeing cool builds and interesting mc skins, it's a very fun and exciting series. In terms of actual story and plot, even with karl's time travel spin to it? Well, it feels like a unique way for karl to basically just never do things on the smp like everyone else, haha, but it gives him a chance to write his own plot without really having it affect anyone else's already-established plot.

Like I said, it's got more of a talk show vs the actual show vibe, because it feels like karl is mainly just trying to have fun with everyone without having to step on anyone's toes! It's not bad, but it's more of a risk-free venture, it keeps the audience involved in a fun storyline, he spends a lot of time and effort on it, and it gives a lot of people a little extra moment in the spotlight, too!

It's definitely overhyped for what it is, but I think the intention is that it's fun in the way a talk show is, not some kind of high-budget entertainment production, but because it's just people hanging out and doing something silly together!

ORB YES I AGREE WITH THIS!

It sucks.

The animation is cringe-worthy the transformations are boring.

Dreamix and Onyrix are like the exact same thing in all ways. They look the same. The songs sound the same. The transformations give me a headache.

What’s the point of a spin-off to only change the one detail of whether of not earth believes in magic.

The plot is so dumb and boring.

Like if you think about that dumb show they’re on. If it’s being filmed live won’t the viewers have to be watching it all day? Who’s gonna do that?

The fight scenes are boring. You know your show sucks if the FIGHTS are not engaging.

PLEASE go back to the old style... the old ways. OR I also would not mind a show that’s all 3d... 3d sirenix looked really nice.

People keep defending this saying it’s hard to come up with unique transformations every season for 6 different people. THAT’S BULLSHIT. LOOK AT PRECURE.

You can make outfits a similar theme by having small details match but not the larger stuff and they used to do this up to believix but it’s getting worse and worse probably because it’s cheaper to copy and paste the character forms six times.

The plots are so dumb. You can walk around the world looking for talent just as easily if they’re not on that show... What do they gain at all by being on the show? Resources? No. Leads, Information? No. Money? Maybe but they are MAGIC they don’t need money. If Stella can make an outfit out of thin air then you can’t tell me they aren’t financially independent.

They try to make this spin-off a more mature show with the girls being older and so having more sexy mature adult designs for the transformations but they don’t act like adults and this plot is 10x more mind-numbing than the original series...

They should do a next gen already because these characters have been so overused and altered and decimated that I really have no taste for them anymore... 

And I’m not going to complain about the episodes being repetitive because shows like Precure and Miraculous Ladybug do that but they’re not horrible like Winx... But I miss the old winx plots which actually advanced every episode. They’d work towards a goal or mission or deal with something in their personal lives and then there would be a reaction or consequences which would continue to a new goal. Like s3 they were trying to find ways to stop Valtor. Research. Test. Also learn their new powers. Do you remember when they didn’t just instantly know everything their new powers can do? OR WHEN A NEW TRANSFORMATION ACTUALLY GAVE THEM NEW ABILITIES?! Charmix gave a little more power, Enchantix gave them healing and miniaturization, Believeix gave them the cool wing powers of speed, teleportation, and seeilng the past AND let them touch people’s hearts and inspire them, Sophix put them in tune with nature, Lovix let them survive the extreme cold, Harmonix let them go underwater, Sirenix let them be proficient underwater and go in the Infinite Ocean, Bloomix gave them their powers back, Mythix let them go into the book, Butterflix put them in touch with nature specifically animals, Tynix let them go to miniworlds which was a cool idea but they kinda ruined it by making the miniworlds so stupidly cutesy and not serious at all. Like they didn’t have to investigate or figure shit out ever there was a cute chibi creature to greet them at every world.

I miss the girls being students because now that they’re graduated it’s like rai doesn’t know what to do with them. For a hot second they were professors with no qualifications then they keep just running off to save the world over and over and is that their job? What if the world doesn’t need saving. What happened to like ruling their home worlds or being the guardians of those worlds?

So yeah it sucks now. I’m done watching. 

trueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, other than technos characters the other non-human i can think of is ranbob who was only non-human because he’s related to ranboo. 

96.3% likely.

oh my god, manberg!karl anon is still here? even though it took me like 7 days to answer you? you a real one, damn.
