it's so crazy to see people who never read the books try to process this universe for the first time on screen when theres so much more behind the story that comes out later on, i loved your reaction!
I know exactly what you mean! It’s like when people watch Harry Potter for the first time or only know the movies and haven’t read the books! This book series is definitely on my watch list though, what an intriguing story💯 And thank you so much🥰
@@MonicaCatapusan ^ as someone said, shadow and bone & six of crows! the two series are set 2 years apart, but for the show, they are adding in a “prequel” story for kaz, inej, and jesper (plus a couple other characters). highly recommend six of crows!
For anyone who's interested, here are the books the show is based off of in reading order: Grishaverse trilogy (Alina's story): -1. Shadow and Bone -2. Siege and storm -3. Ruin and rising After that read the Six of Crows duology (ft. Kaz, inej, Jesper, etc.): -4. Six of Crows -5. Crooked Kingdom
@@louiseob1731 yes there is! The king of scars duology (king of scars, rule of wolves) takes place after the end of Crooked kingdom, I just didn't include it bc it isn't getting adapted. Definitely read them though! They follow Nina, Zoya and Nikolai
The show is based off two books shadow and bone is the main focus but the other story with the crows (kaz, inej, and jesper) are from the six of crows book that takes place years after shadow and bone so this is a prequel for them
I love how so many avatar fans watch Shadow and Bone, and before they get attuned to the Grisha order names, they always go "Bloodbender" or "Airbender".
I swear, I immediately thought once upon a time when mal said “i will come back to you” or I will find you. Then later in the season, there was an “always” like in Harry Potter. Two of my favorite moments in two of my favorite fandoms in this one. Makes me swoon.
for someone who hasn't read the books yet, your reactions were actually pretty accurate! also, i loved your humor and the way you drop references here and there. will definitely look forward to your future s&b reactions!
@@MonicaCatapusan yeah, it wasn't enough that she was dealing with fictional bigotry by being a Grisha. They just wanted to sprinkle some more spice of added IRL racism, I guess. Just to really drive the ostracization home.
First off I love the lashes you got on girl they look really natural 😍 I am amazed by how many more diff tv shows ur doing really expanding that range yess 👏 I cannot deal with u getting tipsy in this also omg 🤣🤣
Thanks boo! These are the lashes I used to wear but I lost them for a few weeks😭 thank youu, I’m trying my best to stay on top of it💪🏼 Loool girl I don’t remember saying half of what I said here😭💀
I really love your reaction !! 😍 But if you read the six of Crows books (which are the books where Kaz, Inej and Jesper and Nina and Matthias are from) you'll know why we don't want Kaz and Inej to sexually interact in the show because in the books you'll learn more about their trauma and their backstory and Kaz's backstory with Peeka Rollins (the guy at 15:23) and I believe that they will explore this in the show in future seasons maybe once they adapte the ice court heist (which is what the six of Crows books are about)
@@MonicaCatapusan I finished it now, its amazing especially the cliffhanger, I am sure you will love it, its one of those shows that netflix recreated from the book very nicely.
You never get too old to learn new stuff I didn't know cedar was intoxicating LOL You look cute trying to react and fumbling your words an extra treat for us viewers. Shadow and Bone I finish watching it a week ago it's an interesting story but now I'm watching "Nevers" , which come out every Sunday on HBO for 3 weeks now... Nevers put you in the mind of Xmen school of Mutants but they are in old Britain in it's mostly women that have powers.
@@MonicaCatapusan I'm lightweight myself I just like watching sci-fi and interesting stuff but don't sell yourself short because when you're not tipsy you give good breakdown of your viewing contents in a fun and humorous way.
Thank you! And oooo yes I have watched a lot of the Marvel series (Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Iron Fist, Luke Cage) but I have still to get round to The Punisher! I didn’t know he was also in that😳
I enjoyed the show very much, I watched it because I was recommended to me. However I do feel like the show lacked on world building, I literally had to Google the different terms for the show because I was not able to catch up 🧐
That’s a very good point. I was also struggling to understand what they were saying sometimes, they really throw you head first into the new world without any time to adjust really. For example the name of the 4th episode is the name of non-magical people in this world but I don’t think it’s ever explained in the show? But in the book it is
@@nelly-gu2qq LITERALLY AND THE FACT THAT THEY WILL MOST LIKELY GET MARRIED LIKE IN THE BOOKS I DON'T GET BECAUSE THERE IS NOTHING ROMANTIC BETWEEN THEM
@@xxaleksi I mean, I understand what they are trying to do with them.. The transition from puppy love into something more meaningful, deeper.. But sorry.. That is so boring to watch 🤣
I’ve never read the books so I don’t know if Mal is supposed to be worse than he is in the show and The Darkling better but purely from a viewer perspective, Malina have love and affection, Darklina have lust and infatuation. He’s like a weird older guy grooming a young girl. Maybe it’s just because I can’t get out of my head that Ben Barnes may look young, but he’s 40 odd and Jessie is playing a teenager.
Would be better if you'd name your videos in order of numbers, or at least mention yhe episode numbers. Kinda hard to figure out the order of episodes in your Playlist...
@UThink UCan When did feminism get so sanctimonious and narcissistic? And the "friendzone" is a real thing, so how about YOU grow up and stop denying the reality or male/female relationships for the sake of your inflated inferiority complex.
"Handsome" is a bit of an understatement for Ben Barnes 😂🔥🔥🔥
A new word needs to be invented for how FINE he is
@@MonicaCatapusan YES!!! 😂🥰

@@MonicaCatapusan yes exactly!! the books are genuinely AMAZING so i highly recommend!!
Everything you say about Ben Barnes is so True his handsomeness and chemistry with everyone is so powerful it could destroy the fold on its on.
And I would be 100% okay with that😂👀
“What is she gonna do? Draw him a picture?!” 🤣🤣🤣
the world is even more confusing, because they’re combining two books series within the same universe! 😂
Ohhh I see! Which 2 book series is that??
@@MonicaCatapusan shadow and bone and six of crows
@@MonicaCatapusan ^ as someone said, shadow and bone & six of crows! the two series are set 2 years apart, but for the show, they are adding in a “prequel” story for kaz, inej, and jesper (plus a couple other characters). highly recommend six of crows!
pro trick : you can watch series at flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching lots of of movies these days.
@Cash Will Yea, been using flixzone} for since december myself =)
For anyone who's interested, here are the books the show is based off of in reading order:
Grishaverse trilogy (Alina's story):
-1. Shadow and Bone
-2. Siege and storm
-3. Ruin and rising
After that read the Six of Crows duology (ft. Kaz, inej, Jesper, etc.):
-4. Six of Crows
-5. Crooked Kingdom
Isn’t there two more cuz I want to get those books
@@louiseob1731 yes there is! The king of scars duology (king of scars, rule of wolves) takes place after the end of Crooked kingdom, I just didn't include it bc it isn't getting adapted. Definitely read them though! They follow Nina, Zoya and Nikolai

Ahhhhh so that’s why there are time jumps😭
I love how so many avatar fans watch Shadow and Bone, and before they get attuned to the Grisha order names, they always go "Bloodbender" or "Airbender".
It’s the blueprint
@@MonicaCatapusan Facts.
Your personality makes these reactions pure gold.
Thank you so much, your support means a lot🥰

So many parallels! I love it so much🥺

I guess I have a lot of YA knowledge in the back of my brain😂 Thank you so much!🥰 Yes, I have more videos on the way!
The funny part is that the line „and she looked like the enemy “ isnt in the book bc in the book Alina is white
Oh what😭 So they just decided to sprinkle in the anti-Asian plot line for the bantz
@@MonicaCatapusan yeah, it wasn't enough that she was dealing with fictional bigotry by being a Grisha. They just wanted to sprinkle some more spice of added IRL racism, I guess. Just to really drive the ostracization home.
wait, book alina IS WHITE?!?!

I love that you're turning into a darklina stan (alina/general kirigan aka prince caspian)
Darklina is everything
I love the tension🥺👀
I hope she gets away from that because the Darkling is an abuser smh
LOL the “after” parallel for the running scene
I love this show and I love your reaction yess!!!!.
I just in love with the darking or i would say Ben Barnes ♥♥
Hey man, I won't lie here, I'm here for Ben Barnes and I'm not even sorry omg.
Same
I really love your reaction !! 😍
But if you read the six of Crows books (which are the books where Kaz, Inej and Jesper and Nina and Matthias are from) you'll know why we don't want Kaz and Inej to sexually interact in the show because in the books you'll learn more about their trauma and their backstory and Kaz's backstory with Peeka Rollins (the guy at 15:23) and I believe that they will explore this in the show in future seasons maybe once they adapte the ice court heist (which is what the six of Crows books are about)
you’re stunning wow!!!! also i love your personality, this video was so much fun:))
Thank you so much, your support means a lot🥰✨
I can't get over the fact that Kefta is a type of cuisine and family of meatballs eaten in the sub-Indian continent 🤣
omg your watching this??? now i gotta watch it that means it’s good
I’m really enjoying it so far!!
My favourite moment from this entire video was you calling your cider "dumb bitch juice" lmao
I was litteraly watching this when u posted xD im on episode 5-6 I believe
😂😂😂😂 How are you finding it so far?
@@MonicaCatapusan I finished it now, its amazing especially the cliffhanger, I am sure you will love it, its one of those shows that netflix recreated from the book very nicely.

Shadow and Bone I finish watching it a week ago it's an interesting story but now I'm watching "Nevers" , which come out every Sunday on HBO for 3 weeks now... Nevers put you in the mind of Xmen school of Mutants but they are in old Britain in it's mostly women that have powers.
I’m just a lightweight😭 Ooooo that sounds so interesting!! I’ll definitely pop it on my watch list!

15:06 damn right hahaha
We are team MALINA in this house
They have as much chemistry as a couple of siblings, and you know it.
@@johnjungkook2721 but the Darkling is a grandpa, actually a great 10x grandpa
@@reinaortiz6057 he is immortal... Just like Alina would be. Not at all the same
great title
Hi enjoying the videos just thought you would like to know the prince Caspian guy is in the netflix punisher series as well if you wanna check it out
Thank you! And oooo yes I have watched a lot of the Marvel series (Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Iron Fist, Luke Cage) but I have still to get round to The Punisher! I didn’t know he was also in that😳
@@MonicaCatapusan your welcome and yes he is really good in it
We love Billy Russo.
"magandang umaga"
hmmmmmm
that sounds familiar
Villians!
Monica, please react to His Dark Materials. It's the tv series and more complete version of The Golden Compass. Please also react to Heartstopper. 😁
Are you going to watch “his dark material” that’s the tv show the golden compass was remade too.
We have to admit that we didn't care that Ben was the bad boy, we loved him anyways
YOU SAID THE SAME THING ABOUT BRIDGERTON AND WHERES THAT
Don’t attack me😭😭😭😭 Those videos are also coming I promise😭😭😭😭
@@MonicaCatapusan I understand,don’t take that comment serious just wanted to know

Magandang Umaga! Are you a lovely filipina?
I am indeed!😊
i wish mal and alina would not become a couple because i don't see anything more than best friends between them
Honestly, they literally give me brother-sister vibes.. No tension between them, no spark.

@@nelly-gu2qq YES INDEED EXACTLY I KNOW RIGHT ABSOLUTELY I AGREE BUT ALSO THERE IS NOTHING THERE BUT WITH TGE DARKLING THERE WAS INSTANTLY SOMETHING

He said “criminals” not “villains”
You can not infact just be friends with the opposite sex. If you are, either you or they are in the friend zone lol.

Yes you can lol
The “dumb bitch juice.” 🧃 🤣🤣🤣🤣 why did I wait so long to watch this? This was great!
