On the topic of under-loved characters, I'd definitely say that Sir Galahot needs more love. He's very properly-named since, despite being a big bruiser of a knight, he spokes very proper Queen's English and had very good manners. He was definitely an underutilized character, even when compared to Sir Hotbreath who, on top of being good for a chuckle, was actually the one who got on Sir Blaze's case about how a Knight "should be." (What a jerk!) Anyway, Sir Galahot was charming. I liked him.
Aah, finally someone says it ! Oh you wouldn’t know but even if there is almost no fanart of Sir Galahot, more people notice him. He is cute, he knows how to knit according to the opening theme, I love to imagine he is younger than he looks with his voice, it sounds young to me. And his language tic “sir” is cute. He seems to be, as his name the Proper says it, to be the “knightiest” of the knights here. And the reason he doesn’t talk nor appear that often is because apparently, according to Erika Strobel, he was supposed to be very shy. A big gentle giant, so cute ! Maybe he still is shy in canon ! His name in the production was “the Chaste” He’s not one of my favs as sadly as he had not been developped enough, but I still like him and do plan to write or draw more about him, I just need motivation as he’s hard to draw. But yes he has potential.
Sir Hotbreath, however, is one of my favs, he may not appear a lot he appears enough to me to have deserved s2, a shame, I mean he appears and speaks as much as s1 Burnevere ! I already made a post in about him, not an analysis tho. Still notice how he doesn’t like Blaze being girly, while Erika Strobel said that in the production he was supposed to be very macho and constantly doing pushups or working out whenever he had the occasion to keep in shape but also to be seen. This episode implied he might be like that. Buuuuuut seeing how he wears lady’s underwears when he’s in a dress and how there’s a flower on his helmet, he might be trying to conceal his girly side and be jealous of Blaze who has no shame in showing it…
DAMMIT why am I always overanalyzing everything !
