The part where she's like "What's wrong with the both of us liking a nice guy.Whats wrong with who I am now" she sounded so heartbroken like yeah what's wrong with her wanting a nice guy?She can't be someone with good grades and a nicer personality?She can't possibly deserve a nice anything?Thats fucked up
sarah lafleur this literally made me so mad because everyone wanted her to be happy and have good grades and the second it happened everyone was disappointed in her and I hated it... they made her feel unwanted and not needed when she was still herself she was just the better version of herself
@@morgansmith3545 I know this is two years late but the problem wasn't her getting the good grades or liking a good guy at all it was the fact she turned into Riley to do it. She stopped being herself and in the video you see her not being her self you see her essentially being numb because she's being something else and that's why they didn't like it. They want her to get a good guy and have good grades but still have her firey personality and her to be herself
@@chloeplacke9957 Actually the point of the video was to show the hypocrisy. "nonsense it's impossible to become somebody else". And "I'm a teenager, no teenager knows who they are". Riley says this and yet claims that because Maya finally feels safe and comfortable with her new father figure and not denying her feelings for the sake of Riley, that she has "become her". When in reality, Maya felt comfortable enough and supported enough to grow and change like everyone else does in a healthy environment. " i have hope now" vs " You're always wrong or you're always right, idk i don't listen I just stick up to you automatically." The truth is Maya is growing and changing. She went from deep trauma surrounding her dad and being the "bad girl" to finally exploring new things now that she isn't in such a deep hole. She knows who she is, and the person who she lets walk all over her and tell her who she isn't the most, is ironically, Riley, her best friend. Now Maya is insisting that that's who she is. Finally standing up to Riley in the entirety of the show whole Riley goes "la la la" and not listening. You can even scroll through the comments and see the video creators response and comments on this exact thing. This is what she was trying to prove. She's numb because now she's backpedaling. And she did do so because the show's creator knew they were being cancelled and couldn't continue with this storyline. You can research more on this. But basically, the storyline is that Maya, because this change and confidence is so very new, and because she never stood up to Riley before, she reverted back to her original self. Denying her feelings for Lucas and going back to "I just want to put Riley's needs above my own." Having someone, especially your best friend, sabotage, even if that wasn't their intention, your growth is super confusing. Maya finally wants nice things and is overwhelmed and filled with guilt, cuz the second she isn't in detention anymore, Riley tells her to change who she is. That's why Maya feels numb. That's why the video ends with "I owe you an apology Ms.Hart" "Everybody does". You can read the video description and tumblr theories if they are still there.
@@Captain_Effy Se que...probablemente no entiendas el español pero tenía la necesidad de contestartexd Entiendo tu punto, pero de hecho, Maya se estaba convirtiendo en una especie de...marioneta de Riley, y Riley no se daba cuenta de eso. Su amistad se hizo un poco toxica, es decir, maya no opinaba, Maya solo seguía a Riley, sin importar lo que hiciera o dijera. Te puedes dar cuenta con el pasar de los episodios que Maya perdía su esencia y empezaba a actuar mas como Riley. No está mal que Maya saque buenas notas, o que se comporte bien, está mal que esté perdida y no sea ella misma. Claro, ningún adolescente sabe quien es en realidad, pero es esa la etapa en la que la descubren, maya ni siquiera estaba en el camino. Cuando Maya dijo "¿Qué tiene de malo que nos guste el mismo chico?", y Riley dijo..."¿Nos gusta?", eso fue como un click. Te explico: Desde el episodio en el que Maya se viste como Riley, la imita y todo eso, supuestamente se da cuenta de que ella quiere a Lucas como novio y que Riley quiere a Lucas como hermano, pero era todo al revés, Maya quiere a Lucas como hermano y Riley lo quiere como novio. Pero, ¿por qué Maya llegó a esa conclusión? Pues porque cuando te empiezas a comportar como Riley, te gusta lo que ella. Te gusta la ropa que Riley usa, te gusta como Riley tiene su cabello, y te gusta los chicos que a ella le gusta. Creo que la intención del programa fue mostrar esa confusión para crear un triangulo y luego regresar las cosas como estaban, de eso no estoy segura. Eventualmente, a Lucas también le gusta Maya, porque esta se empieza a comportar como Riley, y a Lucas le gusta las Rileys xd En fin, siento que era necesario que Maya pase por esa fase y se encuentre a si misma. No niego que Riley se haya estado comportando muy mal como amiga, siento que se olvidó de Maya por un tiempo, perooooo, lo bueno es que se dio cuenta que no todo es sobre ella, y que a veces hay que escuchar a nuestras amigas, aún mas cuando están gritando. uwu es genial hablar con gente con distintos puntos de vista :3
Can I just say: SOMEONE SHOW THIS TO THE WRITERS!!! This is not only insanely beautiful and aesthetically insane, it's so thoughtfully put together which each scene contradicted the ways Riley believes that Maya "became" her. This is by far one of the most outstanding videos I have ever seen! Amazing :)
The writers are/were fully aware. Riley can be wrong and the diagnosis of what was happening with Maya was wrong. They did it intentionally. “The story has holes, man!” Someone on twitter asked if Farkle would ever be the _old_ Farkle again and they responded with him still being Farkle and how _clothes don’t make the man._
This is absolutely wonderful. It breaks my heart the way they've treated Maya; she changed because the people in her life influenced her. She didn't "become" Riley. That storyline is ridiculous and this video just proved that. I love this, thanks for making it.
She did become Riley. She even admits that. It wasn’t about grades and hair. Riley even says that Maya wouldn’t take anything from anybody, ESPECIALLY when her teacher came after something precious to her, but she did. Riley trampled all over her in that conversation to prove that point. It was never about boys, or grades, or detention. It was about Maya not standing up for who she was anymore.
Jonathon Banasiak I never said she didn’t like him. But the fact still remains that Maya stopped fighting. Riley started teasing Lucas and being more forward, but she was still optimistic and kind and full of love and happiness. Maya got good grades and wore different clothes, but she stopped being Maya. Stopped standing her ground. Her teacher attacked her art, and she didn’t even care. Her voice still being her voice doesn’t matter when she stopped using it.
That end literally killed me. That scene killed me. People thinking that Maya has an identity crisis is really pissing me off because she didn't have one, but they sure pushed her into one. Getting good grades like Riley AND Farkle, changing your style LIKE Farkle and liking the same boy as Riley are common things that happen every day to every teenager. Everyday we change a little bit. And they messed up Maya's mind. Especially Riley and Josh. Now don't get me wrong, i think Riley's intentions were good but she wasn't right, now Josh is a completely different story. What right does he have to show up from nowhere and tell Maya who she is and explain her actions when there's absolutely nothing to explain. He wasn't there. How can he just tell her that her feelings for Lucas were fake and that she 'became' Riley to protect her best friend? He doesn't know anything. You know what time does to people? It makes them grow. Did anyone say Farkle had an identity crisis for changing his clothes, hairstyle and even the way he acts? Did anyone think that he wanted to be Lucas or whatever? No. Because people grow, people mature, people evolve, people CHANGE. And he changed just like Maya did. In my opinion(keep that in mind), Josh was being selfish. All those times Maya told him she liked him and he simply turned her down. Now she begins to move on and he appears from nowhere, dismisses her feelings, tells her she's not being herself, when he hasn't been there to get to know her or the person she became, and suddenly tells her that he'll play the long game? He can't do that. He has no right to do that. You know what he did with all this? He made her think that she likes him and only him, don't even deny it 'cause it's true. He tells her all that shit about her feelings for Lucas being fake because she was torn between the two of them. Please remember the last scene of this video because that's the only thing right right now in this show. Everyone owns and apology to Maya, and one day she'll get it.
What upset more about this whole thing is that, it was all Farkle fault. Farkle manipulated Riley. When Riley found out on Texas that Maya likes Lucas, she immediately stepped back and said " Well you're right, I love him like a brother " because she noticed that Maya did that for her the last 2 years. But then, there was Farkle, and his "I know everything way", Riley said to him "Maya stepped back for me when she knew that I liked Lucas, if she has feelings for him how could I not do the same for her? Then Farkle manipulated her to believe that Maya didn't really like Lucas by answering "You don't that, you don't know how Maya feels, I don't think she knows how she feels". He was the one who said all this stupid stuff to Maya, not once, and made Riley doubt abt her friends feelings and even personality. Farkle was the one who did Riley forget who her best friend is, I think what happens here is that actually Riley is the one who lost herself not believing in her best friend anymore, and bring manipulated by Farkle, then everything turned into a mess, and a lotta people got it's decisions interfered by the consequences of this entire stupid thing.
i hate how riley is telling maya how to feel and how to think when maya has her own mind and feelings that are unique. riley telling maya you make fun of lucas bc you like him is such a fukcing bitch move because maya starts to believe that when she mightve still been confused and trying to figure out what she really felt and why
i don’t understand why the phrase “people change people” is repeated so damn much but as soon as one of the characters starts to change or does something that’s out of the ordinary for them, one or more of the character freaks out is like “this is not you” someone please explain bc frankly i don’t understand
+jeni well I think its repeated because of the people who are around you or the people who influence you to be who you are. The phrase is sometimes true but not all the Time because some moments can change you and some moments can't. "People change people " pretty much means if you have good friends and nice people around you then you're going to be who you are no matter what another person thinks of what you do or what you say that's why I think the phrase is repeated so often.
It's not that they're "freaking out" about her changing. It's the way she's doing she starts to become less and less of herself Riley is right in this case but maya doesn't see it. Riley did change maya but just a little too much until she starts to find herself again. The episode where maya comes across her old " friends" is. Good example of the real maya. She didn't sit back and let them talk to her the way they did or try and push her to be something she's not. She stood up to them and put them in their place and made the right decision to not vandalize the status that's how Riley impacted her she made the right choice.
The only thing I Think is. People do change people and that's the theme. And i think they tried to show that not everyone will agree with the changes. Even if that's how they wanted you to be in the first place. But I could be reading it wrong.
Faith Luera She wasn’t changing her personality. She was just finally being happier. Riley isn’t the only person who is happy. She still stood up for herself and her friends, but what no one realizes is the one person Maya was never gonna fight was Riley herself. Maya would give up everything, if it meant Riley was happy. She was never Riley and she never will be Riley, but she has a right to be a little happier, a little better in school, a little less of a rule breaker. She deserves hope and support, but all they did was tell her how she wasn’t herself because she a little bit of all these things. That’s bullshit. (Sorry. I’m really passionate)
Ashley Guerrero oh so Maya saying Riley is not good enough to be a cheerleader thats fair right riles never got an apology or when Maya told Shawn your ganna protect me from her anr pointed at Riley she never got an apology oh Riley finally believes in something and maya says i need a break from you and all these things you belive I don't recall riles ever getting an apology
Heather - keep in mind the WHOLE group thought she wasnt good enough to be a cheerleader because she'd tried out before and wasn't that great. I think the thing between shawn and riley was just a joke. Riley judged Maya for finally getting good grades and being happier and having hope again, which is something Maya deserves an apology for. It was huge and rude as hell for Riley to say the things she did. Riley wanted Maya to be better at school and happier and have hope and then the second she did she told Maya that she needed to change back to who she was.
I think Maya is so mature and doesn't get enough credit for being such a loving and good person. the writers need to make Riley understand Maya has feelings also and she is emotional, Riley isn't a good friend for saying Maya needs to stay the same Maya she was when she was in middle school but Riley herself is allowed to find herself and grow up mostly mature. Maya is strong and deserves the best life.
Heather ambrose Maya was there for Riley. Maya supported Riley in everything. To quote “You’re wrong all the time...... or you’re right, i don’t know, i don’t listen i just stick up for you” Maya supported Riley in every way, and was willing to give up her happiness, just so Riley could be happy
@@heatherambrose4331 omgsh SHE WASN'T THEIR FOR RILEY? WHEN? cause I remember correctly she helped riley with every issue she had even if maya had issues at the time too so to me it seems like ur making a bias opinion cause u think riley is the better character and is seeing everyone else agrees with maya side so when u say dumb things like that plz have something to back it up. Gosh tf is wrong with u
I'm crying right now you know when Maya was screaming at Riley and Riley was just singing trying to drown her out. I think that's a metaphor for what happened. They are all just telling what to do who to be and how to feel. She's her own person why just why go down this road writers why make up such stupid things when we all know it came out of no where. It's not like she was all sun shine and rainbows that would make more sense and if they would have built it up but they didn't they just through it in our face and said hey Maya became Riley obviously because she likes Lucas it has to be her trying to be like Riley. Just I hate this show it ugh! I'm done I'm done.
all maya did was wear the clothes that SHAWN bought her and all of a sudden she’s “riley” and i hate how they just made the whole lucas thing her being riley like wtf
Dayana Gonzalez exactly like honestly Maya was just *maturing* and they wanted to pass it off as “turning into Riley” which now that I look back at it it’s really annoying
Ikr tbh they arnt even dressing the same litrelly. Most girls have their hair down. Most girls and boys change their style. She wasnt even riley. Tbh the writers did this on purpouse and i strongly believe that if disney didnt cancel it they would have made an episode of maya confronting riley. Maya was maturing. Like it feels like people just want to use maya to keep them happy. She was happy with her new clothes and grades. She was smiling so much. Then when everyone was accusing her and riley started to shout at her she got confused and upset. You can tell by her voice. Lucas loved maya maya loved lucas. Riley was selfish just to get lucas. Talk about toxic. Josh was manipulative. Guess it runs through riley and josh. Just lying for themselves. Maya kept saying she was fine. like what? Does riley want maya to be happy? Tbh the onlt reason maya changed was because she found her hope. And realised she needed to be better to achieve a future. I hate when riley fans state that riley is depressed. SRIOUSLY. WHY WOULD RILEY BE DEPRESSED IF SHE IS THE MEAN ONE AND SHE HAS A FAMILY. WHY WOULD SHE BE DEPRESSED OVER A BOY. i get the bullying but she got friends to help her and you can be depressed for like a week. Riley fans need to stop lu Ying to make riley and intresting character.
When Farkle changed out of his turtleneck and bowl hairstyle people accepted him for it, but when Maya got better grades and changed clothing styles people automatically think somethings wrong with her. I don’t understand?
I understand maya They always say smile more You need to come out more You need to wear more colours why always black Now that I do they say ohh you changed or you look better I love that you smile more you look better But to be honest it's all *Pretending*
Everyone on the show to Maya: you should do better in school!!!! Try and do good !!!! Maya: *finally does well in school* Everyone: u haven’t been urself lately :/// Everyone on the show: you should have hope and believe in urself or else you’ll never succeed!!! Be happy !!! Maya: *is happy, is hopeful* Everyone: u haven’t been urself lately :/// Maya: *has a crush on a guy three Years older than her* Everyone: sorry sweetie, he’s too old for you!!! u should move on Maya: likes a nice (in her opinion) guy, who is her age Everyone: u don’t REALLy like him, u only like him because you’re Riley Now ://// This stupid ass show: preaches the mantra “people change people” in every fucking lesson Maya: *is changed as a person by Riley, is happy and does well in school and tries to do well* Everyone: u have changed as a person and are improving because of it and we don’t like it ://///
I really don't like this whole "you became me" thing. What's wrong with Maya getting good grades, what's wrong with her being more mature then rebel? What's wrong with the clothes and hair, who even cares about that? Damn, this is insane. She can't always be that "bad girl" who jumps at teacher's desk and does all the crazy staff, she's growing up, it's normal. And has nothing to do with "becoming Riley". I get that this show is about her story, but it's just too much. Too much "all about Riley" for me. Come on, there're other characters as well, they each deserve their own character development! Anyways, this video is stunning. Definitely goes to my favorites ♡
Yeah, I totally agree with you! Riley totally misunderstood the situation this time, Maya didn't turned into Riley at all. She only grew, embraced hope and changed for the better! (btw people change people, right?!). And thank you
I agree, she's only growing up. And everyone else wants her to be a rebel? It's good that she's becoming GOOD. By the way, after the group tries to change Farkle back in Yearbook, Farkle admits he's still Farkle but is growing up & trying to change. They let him do that. Adding to that, people don't tell Lucas to be his Texas self all the time. But when Maya tries to change, nobody'll let her.
People who believe in this "Maya turned into Riley" thing need to learn the concept of character development, this video is amazing, showing how maya IS maya and her voice is still her voice
But that’s literally what happened in the show… exactly…she even confirms it herself. Maybe people wanted it to be more but the people who made the character and know her the best made it an identity crisis so that’s what it was.
@@ColorlessMayhem That's the issue, it was a massive cop out - That's what everyone hates about this storyline. There was all this amazing character growth that was suddenly haphazardly reframed as an identity crisis.
This should be mandatory viewing for everyone who is buying the Maya-turned-into-Riley story. Stahp looking at the birdie and look at this stunning video instead. Immaculate.
Paulo Pérez yeah she acting like she the greatest thing that ever happened. I never knew that someone could not change for the better but when someone does, it changes them “negatively.” That never made sense to me and Riley was a terrible friend. She is a very privileged child and never knew how to be there for Maya but expected Maya to be there for her. That is so disgustingly rude on so many levels🥺🥺
I think she did changed, but Riley just perceived it wrong. Unlike Riley, Maya actually grew up - more quicker than Riley. Riley has a mind of young teenager however Maya is a different case. Maya grew up quick because of her broken pieces, she became mature. A young woman. Maya is Riley's guardian, like a mother. Riley expects Maya to be there for her as a friend and Maya follows that because she knows that Riley needs her. Riley rebels still yet Maya transitioned into a young woman. Idk, probably not write but I feel it in my bones ridin through like lucas did on a pony
Maya did change. She grew up and matured, indeed because of how broken she was. But she realized, as she did, that there was hope. That she did have a future. And that’s how she changed. She became more hopeful and prepared to be a better everything. And that, apparently, makes her Riley. Which I strongly disagree with.
i have lost count of the amount of times i have watched this video. somehow, i always find myself coming back to this video and being at a loss of words. your editing, the song, this whole thing is perfect. a masterpiece.
Oh my god, this is incredible! And so spot on. I too am obsessed with reading theowldetective's analysis of the show. Riley is so so wrong about Maya and the issue in this arc and honestly I hope Maya gets an apology from her one day about this whole thing because she's been a tad mean even if she has good intentions. We can see from an outside perspective how skewed Riley's view is because Maya always sacrifices for her, she very rarely stands up to her like Riley thinks she does. And she's screaming not because she's lost herself and become Riley, but because she's torn up about the triangle and how she thinks it's going to ruin her friendship with Riley.
misslolohannah Mayas been mean to her in so many seasons tho ans she never gets an apology like Maya saying Riley was never good enough to do cheerleading did riles ever get an apology then or like in gm upstate Cory says be quite baby Cory and maya replies with oh your ganna protect me from her did riles ever get an apology or when high school maya says how am I in a triangle with this that was disrespectful she didn't even get an apology when Maya said she needed a break from Riley beliveing in things so why should Riley be the one aplolgizing
the teacher : "i owe you an apology miss hart." maya : "everybody does" so relatable..almost everybody who's come into my life has hurt my badly..and left me feeling broken...i dont trust people no more.
this is so perfect. if anyone still thinks riley is right about this after watching this video there is something seriously wrong with them. fantastic job! wish I could edit like this :)
the thing is riley thinks maya is someone who stands up for what she believes in SHES NOT, she always has let people push her over she has never fought for something. she did bad things (e.g. standing on a teachers desk) because she needed attention she needed someone to look at her because her father (and occasionally mother) never were there for her and she changed because she found people that cared for her
I think she was someone who stands up for what she believes in because she was one of the only ones that was almost always herself and didnt try to change to impress anyone, had her own unique style, and didnt let anyone get to her. I agree with the attention thing and that its why she behaved badly and that she changed vecaise she found a family in her friends, they changed her for the better by showing her that she didn't need any attention because they were always gonna be there for her and they pushed her to stand up for what she wanted like when the art class was gonna be cut but at a point Riley crissed a line
I dont even watch the show, and thats how u can tell this is a good video bc u kept me CAPTIVATED all the way through, literally I honestly loved this!! I loved how you showed maya as being completely her own person, you showed how unique she is without me knowing anything about her, honestly well done! amazing editing also
I'm pretty sure that I already commented on this video but I have to do it again. This video is one of the best videos I have ever seen on RUclips and I have been on here for so many years, watching edits BUT THIS ONE. I LOVE IT SO MUCH. It just proves how stupid the whole "you became me" thing is. It also shows how amazing Maya Hart is. I always come back to this video. The amount of times that I have watched this video is not healthy. I LOVE IT SO MUCH. Whenever she says "what's wrong with who I am now?" my heart shatters into a million pieces. I love this video so much and wanna thank you for it 💕
I'm not buying any of the writer's "Maya became Riley" bs. The past few episodes are just that: a load of bs. The show continuously preaches "people change people"... and yet, as soon as Maya begins to change--new hair, new clothes, liking the same boy as her best friend, getting good grades, having _hope_... they start saying that she's "become someone else". Honestly, Maya is so, so much easier to relate to and that's why I really want Lucaya to be endgame. *sigh* On a side note (lol): this video is absolutely stunning; too beautiful for words. It's so aesthetically pleasing and I agree with your message :)
This! Istg maya did nothing wrong and on the topic of lucaya they would've worked out so well, lucas is one of the only people that can calm maya down, and maya cares for lucas
riley was a total jerk in that episode. like when maya said “what’s wrong with us both liking a nice guy?” and riley just said “do we?” in this sassy voice as if the world revolves around her and no feelings matter but hers and it just put me off. and she was just mean about “keeping lucas” and was so inconsiderate towards maya’s feelings that maya was manipulated into thinking she was someone else. and that whole maya became riley storyline was really ridiculous. like there had to be one perfect good girl and one messed up rebel for the world to work. they were teaching her all these lessons and when she finally decided to listen they all blew up on her. she was just growing up. maya isn’t defined by how many times she’s in detention and in opinion she didn’t even change that much aside from her clothes and her not being in detention. and when people tried to make her “back to normal” she retaliated saying that she didn’t want her place in the group to be the lying thief but they didn’t listen. and maya wasn’t allowed to feel what she wanted to feel because riley had lucas first and any possibility that lucas may have liked maya was crushed because either way he was tied to riley. and maya wasn’t allowed to be right. it was always riley and i just got sick of it. lol none of my friends like girl meets world so i just had to rant thank you for coming to my ted talk
thank you for calling out all the bs I couldn't put into words. I hate the whole Maya turned to Riley plot line in order to protect her. like they contradicted everything the show said, ppl change ppl, and everything you showed.
she is the best character on this show, honestly. so realistic and relatable, i love her and thats why i want lucaya, i want her to have the good guy who will always be there for her, just like lucas, cmon she deserves that!! great video btw 💖
I will be forever grateful that you made this video. It just highlights Maya's personal growth as well as the multiple moments where her loved ones unconsciously repressed/prevented that growth. It shows how pleasant she is and no matter what anybody says, she's still going to be herself. You put Maya Hart on a pedestal and presented her as the beauty that she is as a character. Thank you for this! :'D
Honestly going through Lucaya videos because I miss them. I missed their dynamic. Their relationship. It really made me angry when the triangle was "resolved." It angered me because after it was so called "resolved", Lucas and Maya never actually had a real conversation with each other like they used to. It became awkward, and to me it became apparent that they were ignoring each other. Say all you want about Maya never liking Lucas or Lucas never liking Maya, but if they never liked each other... why is there so much reflection over their relationship? Why did the love triangle last so long if Riley and Lucas were meant to be- if he never liked Maya? Why would they not have a real conversation with each other after the triangle was resolved? They hardly talked, hardly looked each other in the eye. It was mostly for Rileys benefit- and their group. This makes me want to do a fanfiction- one that isn't immature (12 year olds wrote) like some I've come across. Girl Meets World ended, but my love for Lucaya hasn't.
I feel like Maya is so underrated. I almost cried in this episode. Maya sacrifices everything for her friends. She does everything possible, even if it hurts her, so Riley can be happy! How can someone not see that? It's so stupid to say that Maya became Riley. Did Maya become Riley? No! Maya matured, she feel in love and she started caring. She started caring about school and she starting becoming happy. Honestly I was so pissed at Riley in this episode. Is Riley the only one who can be happy?! Honestly I don't think Lucas picked Riley. I think Maya backed off, cause that's what she does. She does everything so the people she loves can be happy. Who can honestly believe the reason Maya liked Lucas was "because she wanted to protect Riley" and all that crap? I think Maya didn't change. Instead she just started to show who she was in the inside. What hurt me the most was when Riley said to "fix her" Maya isn't a toy. She's the same Maya she's always been: kind, caring and fierce. Sometimes I feel like Riley doesn't deserve Maya as a friend. She hurts Maya so much and she doesn't even realize it. Maya's strong. She's beautiful and bold. And she's fierce. Regardless of the clothes she wears or the grades she gets, she's the same girl. The same Maya who cares WAY too much for her friends, so much that it hurts her. Sometimes I really wish I had a friend like Maya. A friend that would go out of their way to make me happy. Riley doesn't know how lucky she is. Riley doesn't deserve Maya. I was so disappointed in Lucas over the ski lodge thing. But honestly, I feel like he hurt her a lot too. Maya honestly need ps a person that will not judge her and that will make her happy. I don't care if she's with Lucas or with Josh or with any other guy. I just want her to be happy cause she deserves it.
THIS IS SPOT ON! I am so unbelievably annoyed with this "Maya became Riley" storyline. Its a load of BS! I love Riley but so far this season she has been annoying the hell out of me. Can Maya just be happy for once in her life...
Honestly I don't get how Maya became Riley, all the episodes that we saw leading up to this episode, she always seemed like Maya to me not Riley. If anything I thought that she was growing up, but she was still Maya, she still was sarcastic and sassy but she was also starting to mature and get good grades. She starting getting hope, too. I thought thats what Riley wanted for Maya. I don't get how Riley can say that when her father taught her the answer a little while ago, people change people, she changed Maya, and because of her Maya is maturing, but she's not becoming Riley, she still Maya she's just growing up. And I also don't get how Riley can say that, but when Farkle starts to grow up and become more mature, she lets him and did nothing. I guess I kinda see where Riley is coming from a little but I still don't see how Maya became Riley. I also feel bad because when she starts to be "Maya", all Riley could do is think of all the bad situations that happened and pinned them on Maya. I don't remember her stealing money when she was younger. I don't remember her pulling a fire alarm. I remember her setting off sprinklers on accident. I remember her taking a Locket from the lost in found because she wanted it to have a home, because she felt bad that something so beautiful was lost. She wanted the locket because the locket symbolized her. Sry I'm weirdly passionate about this topic.
I don't understand the writers, what was their life lesson/message? Don't try hard in school and get yourself in trouble? Cause that's the vibe they gave off.
Okay Chanelle basically " fit your friends needs and if you used to be a slacker in school and your bff an a+ student and suddenly you're doing better in school you're really becoming her and you should stop immediately or else you may start liking the same boy as her even though you seem to like him for totally different reasons than she does. hope IS for suckers!"
The writers are shit, they created this triangle by accident and when people started watching the show because of it, they explored it.. but in the end (again, because they are shit) they went for the cliche romance that screams disney all over it, gave the worst explanation in the history of explanations for the triangles's "solution", and destroyed what could have been they're best school lesson: First love is not always the only person you are going to fall in love with, and it's even more special the second time because it teaches you that you can be loved again.
Beautiful video honestly I am speechless, it's so emotional and captures Maya's feelings perfectly. I completely agree Maya is just growing up it doesn't mean she's turning into Riley she's just becoming a better version of herself :)
this is literally one of the BEST girl meets world videos ever made. i admire how much thought and work you put into this it is truly a fucking masterpiece
I gotta say, Riley is an incredible toxic friend and this is why: when maya starts getting good grades and maturing Lucas started liking her more and Riley realized, so she tried to make maya self conscious so she would be more immature so she could have Lucas
Maya was starting to feel less depressed and less sad but Riley telling Maya to be more depressed and shit like that She can't understand that Maya is growing up ofc she won't fucking be a rebel or do shit anymore she wants to be mature
I wish so many people would stop hating on Riley she was the best character in gmw for many reasons she was kind, caring, selfless, she always put her friends needs above her own for example Riley always liked Lucas then Maya decides she likes him too that was so wrong of her you can't say if that happened to you that you wouldn't be angry cause anyone would if they found out who they thought was their best friend wanted to date their longtime crush but that's more proof Riley was such a great friend she would have been so happy if Lucas had chosen Maya cause she cared about Maya feelings more than her own and I'm not saying I agree with Riley about Maya becoming her but she had good intentions she was just genuinely worried about her friend
@@kanejshipper Regarding the whole "Don't like your best friend's crush" thing, I think this concept is kind of flawed. Reason being, you can't really predict who you are going to like and I get why the person who liked them first would be angry but it's still a bit unreasonable. You can't stop someone from liking who they like and in the end, it's the crush who chooses who they want to be with so......yeah this whole thing is just flawed. Its not a decision you can make like that and Maya was evidently conflicted about her feelings. She didn't intentionally start to like him.
@@lani50 yes Maya may not be able to help her feelings but she never should've acted on them knowing how much Riley always liked Lucas Maya should've just pretended she didn't like Lucas until she could move on that's what a real friend would do if you're a real friend you don't want to date your best friend's longtime crush just imagine you always liked someone then you find out your best friend the person you trusted most in the world wants to date that person knowing you like them that's so wrong anyone would be so upset at Maya if they were in Riley's place all the ones taking Maya's side are only taking her side because it didn't happen to them if the same happened to them as Riley they'd agree with her people should try to understand how upset Riley must be but she's still being an amazing friend to Maya this shows how mean some people can be by bashing Riley for no reason
@@lani50 and I appreciate you're not talking bad about Riley's character, thanks😊 it's hard having a debate with people when they are so set on hating Riley for no reason just like I don't hate Maya's character I was just disappointed in her with the way she did the Lucas thing she was an amazing friend until the series decided to do the Maya Lucas Riley storyline that never should've happened at least Maya eventually goes back to liking Josh instead of still wanting to date Lucas
you just got yourself a new subscriber, i dont know how I've never seen your channel before today but im SO GLAD now that i did!!! THIS IS AMAZING AND SO ON POINT AND EXACTLY WHAT I FELT WHEN I SAW THE EPISODE. I was so mad with how they handled her 'identity crisis' I hated it. Maya turned into a great teenager, she's still fierce and speaks her voice and is still full of fire, but she's not gloomy and pessimistic as much anymore, she smiles so much MORE, shes getting good grades, she's not falling behind in her school work, she's not wasting time in detention and getting a bad record. And clothes and hair have nothing to do with that. I think the only reason Maya thinks she's become RIley is because Riley is making her believe so and she's also planting this seed in her head about Lucas and her feelings for him even though she clearly started liking him when she was still acting as herself in season 2! This was a perfect example of who Maya truly is, amazing job!
Yessss, is like Lucas said in GMFarkle "but if you get called something enough, don’t you start believing it?", Riley pushed so hard that Maya started believing it too. When the art teacher says that she hasn't lost her voice is already too late, they only pay attention to the purple cat. :| And thank you so much, sweetie!
This made me cry.😭 This was stunning. Maya has had a lot of names actually thrown at her and comments about her family style. I don't think she was trying to be Riley I think she was trying to be the best person she could be, who happened to be Riley. She wasn't painting a purple cat because she was becoming Riley it's because Riley is her inspiration. Which is why she was inspired to pick that bench
Absolutely love this video the background sound was on point too. "Nonsense, it's impossible to become someone else." 😒 Congrats Riley, you just proved yourself stupid
It hurt so badly when they, mainly Riley, forced an identity crisis on her. I know Riley felt lost too, but her telling Maya that she couldn't change or grow as a person made her actually have the identity crisis that she did. The reason Maya painted the purple cat is because Riley made her SO DISTRESSED. Any time Maya tried to stand up for herself, Riley would tear her down, they would tear her down. So she went back to the way things were because at least then, she wasn't under constant attack. It just kills me because she found hope, love, and let herself CARE. And they ruined that for her.
Maya didn't change, she matured she showed her true self. Lucas didn't pick Riley, Maya backed off. Maya didn't cause trouble in order to be deemed a rebel, she was very neglected and tried to gain attention in order to fill the hole in her heart. Maya always helped and cared for other people and didn't care about who they were or how they changed she still accepted them. Every one says "people change people" than when Maya showed what she was truly like they say " fix her" like she's an object or "Maya this isn't you" they aren't accepting who she is, Maya Hart is a pure angel. Either way Maya is still just a girl who went through too much at young age.
i haven’t seen this video in a while but the part where Riley says “i’m still figuring out who i am” was so heartbreaking because she was given the space to whereas anytime Maya explored herself she was shut down by Riley…
i always come back to this video bc everything’s changing and it helps me see that that’s ok and i’m still me. i relate to her so much… there’s nothing wrong with who i am now.maya helped me see that.
What made my heart break the most was when she said “what’s wrong with who I am now” on the fact I know what that feels like she felt that she had to “be” a Riley to get the guy, to get love and be validated. We all have our role models or somebody we wish we were...Maya saw the things Riley had and became her because she wanted more to have what she had the father, the mom, the love...she felt broken because she wasn’t Riley
I've been watching this video everyday since it came out and it still gets me every time because I feel like we are the only ones who see it the way your video expresses it. She didn't really change. I want to show the writes this video because right now I'm pretty sure they're blind. IM JUST CONFUSED because those are the same people that wrote Boy Meets World. It just doesn't make sense and it was such a stupid way to end the triangle. I love Maya Hart so much & I think it's the most important thing that she's happy. I mean if she's happy the way it is right now then so am I but I just don't think that the storyline makes sense. "You became me." It annoys me, it annoys me. "My voice is still my voice." THIS LINE IS SOOO IMPORTANT. "You want me to go home? I'll go home." I love this video so much, thank you for uploading it.
You know what i find so precious about this ? Maya stand up for her self, she knows who she really is and is not discourage by others prejudices about her, she doesn't need to fit the image of who she is supposed to be, there's nothing wrong about being her now, because that's who she is.
What bothered me SO MUCH about them trying to convince everyone that Maya became Riley (which makes absolutely no sense) is that they act as if Maya can’t evolve. As if she can’t grow, and do better for herself as her life gets better. People don’t just stay in a dark place, they grow and evolve from it. That’s what Maya did. Her personality never changed ONCE. The only thing that changed was her willingness to do better for herself.
Riley says: "She's gotten good grades, she's behaving all over the place" and "Not stood on a teachers desk, no detention in a while"... Like how the fk is that a bad thing?! That's growth right there! That's MATURING! And we're framing this as a bad thing? That growing up and changing is a bad thing? This arc, was the worst written arc in the entire show, and it's NOT close.
Not only that but Maya became hopeful and they instantly turned her down, all she did was get good grades because she has a better life now, and she changed her clothing because Shawn bought her new clothing, and shes liked Lucas from the very start and can’t hide her feelings any more. She became hopeful for things and all of sudden shes Riley? Its so heartbreaking
@@nicki6355 You’re absolutely correct! There was no sense behind that arc at all. Maya was just growing up, and losing that childish/rebel personality that stemmed from having to always take care of herself while her mom was constantly at work and her daddy issues. Being around Riley and her family, and resolving her own familial issues, would only make her mature and lose that childish/rebellious behavior. Maya matured and started to see life in a different way, while staying true to herself. Never once did I think her maturity was linked to becoming Riley. She’s always acted like herself. I hate what the writers tried to pull off. And don’t get me started on the Josh and Maya storyline. That always made me sick to my stomach.
@@mikewheeler-jt8zt It really is! I hate what the writers did to her storyline. I always felt that they should have made Maya end up with Lucas and Riley end up with Farkle. The fact that they even hinted that Josh was willing to be with Maya after she graduated made me sick. I always hated that storyline as well.
Why does Disney always brings out the fact that a perfect girl with a perfect family should always have a happy ending and the broken best friend should stay broken.
I don't understand the fact that throughout the show everyone's been preaching about how great having hope is but when Maya finally has hope. It's a bad thing? Character development is a thing. Why is getting a good grade a bad thing? Not getting into trouble? The turning into Riley thing was absolutely ridiculous.
Such a shitty end to my favourite show. Why is maturity and growing up suddenly becoming someone else? Such an amazing video that speaks so much truth.
My Opinion Okay so- When Maya finally tries to start being who she is Riley and everybody else says "This isn't you!" she's finding who she is now! And Riley is trying to change her "back" so now what if Maya is faking being a rebel and really wants to be good, and have good grades. Riley even said "it's impossible to become someone else." and she's right all Maya is trying to do is become who she is now, and Riley's stopping her... Maya keeps saying "I'm me! I've always been me!" and Riley is basically saying no. I loved the last part where it's like "Ms. Hart I owe you an apology..." "everybody does." LIKEEEEE BRUH I WAS CRYING. Either way I hate this whole Becoming Riley thing XDD (Btw THIS EDIT GIVES LIFE)
I think what made me love this show so damn much was Maya, because I’ve never seen myself in a character before. Her story was just like mine, her life was just like mine. the way she is, is just like how I am. I was just as broken. Ik it was just a show but seeing her character made me feel like I wasn’t alone.🥺❤️
You see the most messed up thing about the way this series ended is because it ended with the idea that "Maya moved to Rileytown" and "she became someone she's not". That's not what happened...she got brighter, she found things to believe in and people who believe in her. She found happiness. But the show is saying that "No. You are sad. You are hurt. You are broken. You can't be bright, you can't get good grades, you can't be optimistic - that's Riley. You're becoming her". Why can't Maya just be happy? She doesn't have to stay broken. Why can't she *become* happy? Riley: "The world already has one of me, it needs one of you!" That's a really f'ed up way of saying "I'm happy and successful, so you can't be". Maya was completely right by saying, "What's wrong with us both liking a nice guy", and "I'm still me". For a supportive friend, Riley had some pretty contradictory lines.
Maya didn‘t move to Rileytown. She just planted some flowers in Mayaville.

sarah lafleur this literally made me so mad because everyone wanted her to be happy and have good grades and the second it happened everyone was disappointed in her and I hated it... they made her feel unwanted and not needed when she was still herself she was just the better version of herself
Morgan Smith I agree with you✨💕
@@morgansmith3545 I know this is two years late but the problem wasn't her getting the good grades or liking a good guy at all it was the fact she turned into Riley to do it. She stopped being herself and in the video you see her not being her self you see her essentially being numb because she's being something else and that's why they didn't like it. They want her to get a good guy and have good grades but still have her firey personality and her to be herself
@@chloeplacke9957 Actually the point of the video was to show the hypocrisy. "nonsense it's impossible to become somebody else". And "I'm a teenager, no teenager knows who they are". Riley says this and yet claims that because Maya finally feels safe and comfortable with her new father figure and not denying her feelings for the sake of Riley, that she has "become her". When in reality, Maya felt comfortable enough and supported enough to grow and change like everyone else does in a healthy environment. " i have hope now" vs " You're always wrong or you're always right, idk i don't listen I just stick up to you automatically." The truth is Maya is growing and changing. She went from deep trauma surrounding her dad and being the "bad girl" to finally exploring new things now that she isn't in such a deep hole. She knows who she is, and the person who she lets walk all over her and tell her who she isn't the most, is ironically, Riley, her best friend. Now Maya is insisting that that's who she is. Finally standing up to Riley in the entirety of the show whole Riley goes "la la la" and not listening. You can even scroll through the comments and see the video creators response and comments on this exact thing. This is what she was trying to prove. She's numb because now she's backpedaling. And she did do so because the show's creator knew they were being cancelled and couldn't continue with this storyline. You can research more on this. But basically, the storyline is that Maya, because this change and confidence is so very new, and because she never stood up to Riley before, she reverted back to her original self. Denying her feelings for Lucas and going back to "I just want to put Riley's needs above my own." Having someone, especially your best friend, sabotage, even if that wasn't their intention, your growth is super confusing. Maya finally wants nice things and is overwhelmed and filled with guilt, cuz the second she isn't in detention anymore, Riley tells her to change who she is. That's why Maya feels numb. That's why the video ends with "I owe you an apology Ms.Hart" "Everybody does". You can read the video description and tumblr theories if they are still there.
@@Captain_Effy Se que...probablemente no entiendas el español pero tenía la necesidad de contestartexd Entiendo tu punto, pero de hecho, Maya se estaba convirtiendo en una especie de...marioneta de Riley, y Riley no se daba cuenta de eso. Su amistad se hizo un poco toxica, es decir, maya no opinaba, Maya solo seguía a Riley, sin importar lo que hiciera o dijera. Te puedes dar cuenta con el pasar de los episodios que Maya perdía su esencia y empezaba a actuar mas como Riley. No está mal que Maya saque buenas notas, o que se comporte bien, está mal que esté perdida y no sea ella misma. Claro, ningún adolescente sabe quien es en realidad, pero es esa la etapa en la que la descubren, maya ni siquiera estaba en el camino. Cuando Maya dijo "¿Qué tiene de malo que nos guste el mismo chico?", y Riley dijo..."¿Nos gusta?", eso fue como un click. Te explico: Desde el episodio en el que Maya se viste como Riley, la imita y todo eso, supuestamente se da cuenta de que ella quiere a Lucas como novio y que Riley quiere a Lucas como hermano, pero era todo al revés, Maya quiere a Lucas como hermano y Riley lo quiere como novio. Pero, ¿por qué Maya llegó a esa conclusión? Pues porque cuando te empiezas a comportar como Riley, te gusta lo que ella. Te gusta la ropa que Riley usa, te gusta como Riley tiene su cabello, y te gusta los chicos que a ella le gusta. Creo que la intención del programa fue mostrar esa confusión para crear un triangulo y luego regresar las cosas como estaban, de eso no estoy segura. Eventualmente, a Lucas también le gusta Maya, porque esta se empieza a comportar como Riley, y a Lucas le gusta las Rileys xd En fin, siento que era necesario que Maya pase por esa fase y se encuentre a si misma. No niego que Riley se haya estado comportando muy mal como amiga, siento que se olvidó de Maya por un tiempo, perooooo, lo bueno es que se dio cuenta que no todo es sobre ella, y que a veces hay que escuchar a nuestras amigas, aún mas cuando están gritando. uwu es genial hablar con gente con distintos puntos de vista :3
Can I just say: SOMEONE SHOW THIS TO THE WRITERS!!! This is not only insanely beautiful and aesthetically insane, it's so thoughtfully put together which each scene contradicted the ways Riley believes that Maya "became" her. This is by far one of the most outstanding videos I have ever seen! Amazing :)
I agree with everything you had said.
+Jonathon Banasiak seriously when did they express their thoughts on this?Dont play with my heart Cuz my faith is dying 😩😩
The writers are/were fully aware. Riley can be wrong and the diagnosis of what was happening with Maya was wrong. They did it intentionally. “The story has holes, man!”
Someone on twitter asked if Farkle would ever be the _old_ Farkle again and they responded with him still being Farkle and how _clothes don’t make the man._
Jesus Christ loves you x
This is absolutely wonderful. It breaks my heart the way they've treated Maya; she changed because the people in her life influenced her. She didn't "become" Riley. That storyline is ridiculous and this video just proved that. I love this, thanks for making it.

She did become Riley. She even admits that. It wasn’t about grades and hair. Riley even says that Maya wouldn’t take anything from anybody, ESPECIALLY when her teacher came after something precious to her, but she did. Riley trampled all over her in that conversation to prove that point. It was never about boys, or grades, or detention. It was about Maya not standing up for who she was anymore.
Jonathon Banasiak I never said she didn’t like him. But the fact still remains that Maya stopped fighting. Riley started teasing Lucas and being more forward, but she was still optimistic and kind and full of love and happiness. Maya got good grades and wore different clothes, but she stopped being Maya. Stopped standing her ground. Her teacher attacked her art, and she didn’t even care. Her voice still being her voice doesn’t matter when she stopped using it.
@@alupatz9503 Everyone: Maya you should be more positive
Maya: *becomes more positive*
Everyone: omg you're riley now!
That end literally killed me. That scene killed me. People thinking that Maya has an identity crisis is really pissing me off because she didn't have one, but they sure pushed her into one. Getting good grades like Riley AND Farkle, changing your style LIKE Farkle and liking the same boy as Riley are common things that happen every day to every teenager. Everyday we change a little bit. And they messed up Maya's mind. Especially Riley and Josh. Now don't get me wrong, i think Riley's intentions were good but she wasn't right, now Josh is a completely different story. What right does he have to show up from nowhere and tell Maya who she is and explain her actions when there's absolutely nothing to explain. He wasn't there. How can he just tell her that her feelings for Lucas were fake and that she 'became' Riley to protect her best friend? He doesn't know anything. You know what time does to people? It makes them grow. Did anyone say Farkle had an identity crisis for changing his clothes, hairstyle and even the way he acts? Did anyone think that he wanted to be Lucas or whatever? No. Because people grow, people mature, people evolve, people CHANGE. And he changed just like Maya did. In my opinion(keep that in mind), Josh was being selfish. All those times Maya told him she liked him and he simply turned her down. Now she begins to move on and he appears from nowhere, dismisses her feelings, tells her she's not being herself, when he hasn't been there to get to know her or the person she became, and suddenly tells her that he'll play the long game? He can't do that. He has no right to do that. You know what he did with all this? He made her think that she likes him and only him, don't even deny it 'cause it's true. He tells her all that shit about her feelings for Lucas being fake because she was torn between the two of them. Please remember the last scene of this video because that's the only thing right right now in this show. Everyone owns and apology to Maya, and one day she'll get it.
Totally agree
R wat sucks is she never got that fucking apology
I agree,, she deserved an apology
What upset more about this whole thing is that, it was all Farkle fault. Farkle manipulated Riley. When Riley found out on Texas that Maya likes Lucas, she immediately stepped back and said " Well you're right, I love him like a brother " because she noticed that Maya did that for her the last 2 years. But then, there was Farkle, and his "I know everything way", Riley said to him "Maya stepped back for me when she knew that I liked Lucas, if she has feelings for him how could I not do the same for her? Then Farkle manipulated her to believe that Maya didn't really like Lucas by answering "You don't that, you don't know how Maya feels, I don't think she knows how she feels". He was the one who said all this stupid stuff to Maya, not once, and made Riley doubt abt her friends feelings and even personality. Farkle was the one who did Riley forget who her best friend is, I think what happens here is that actually Riley is the one who lost herself not believing in her best friend anymore, and bring manipulated by Farkle, then everything turned into a mess, and a lotta people got it's decisions interfered by the consequences of this entire stupid thing.
i hate how riley is telling maya how to feel and how to think when maya has her own mind and feelings that are unique. riley telling maya you make fun of lucas bc you like him is such a fukcing bitch move because maya starts to believe that when she mightve still been confused and trying to figure out what she really felt and why
i don’t understand why the phrase “people change people” is repeated so damn much but as soon as one of the characters starts to change or does something that’s out of the ordinary for them, one or more of the character freaks out is like “this is not you”
someone please explain bc frankly i don’t understand
+jeni well I think its repeated because of the people who are around you or the people who influence you to be who you are. The phrase is sometimes true but not all the Time because some moments can change you and some moments can't. "People change people " pretty much means if you have good friends and nice people around you then you're going to be who you are no matter what another person thinks of what you do or what you say that's why I think the phrase is repeated so often.
jeni SAME
It's not that they're "freaking out" about her changing. It's the way she's doing she starts to become less and less of herself Riley is right in this case but maya doesn't see it. Riley did change maya but just a little too much until she starts to find herself again. The episode where maya comes across her old " friends" is. Good example of the real maya. She didn't sit back and let them talk to her the way they did or try and push her to be something she's not. She stood up to them and put them in their place and made the right decision to not vandalize the status that's how Riley impacted her she made the right choice.
The only thing I Think is. People do change people and that's the theme. And i think they tried to show that not everyone will agree with the changes. Even if that's how they wanted you to be in the first place. But I could be reading it wrong.
Faith Luera She wasn’t changing her personality. She was just finally being happier. Riley isn’t the only person who is happy. She still stood up for herself and her friends, but what no one realizes is the one person Maya was never gonna fight was Riley herself. Maya would give up everything, if it meant Riley was happy. She was never Riley and she never will be Riley, but she has a right to be a little happier, a little better in school, a little less of a rule breaker. She deserves hope and support, but all they did was tell her how she wasn’t herself because she a little bit of all these things. That’s bullshit. (Sorry. I’m really passionate)
Maya deserves so much better than what she gets. Sometimes Riley is a terrible friend to Maya and she deserves an apology. But that's just my opinion.
Also, bless this video and bless you for using Sleeping At Last here. They're an amazing band and I'm in LOVE with them.
I agree
Ashley Guerrero agreed :)
Ashley Guerrero oh so Maya saying Riley is not good enough to be a cheerleader thats fair right riles never got an apology or when Maya told Shawn your ganna protect me from her anr pointed at Riley she never got an apology oh Riley finally believes in something and maya says i need a break from you and all these things you belive I don't recall riles ever getting an apology
Heather - keep in mind the WHOLE group thought she wasnt good enough to be a cheerleader because she'd tried out before and wasn't that great. I think the thing between shawn and riley was just a joke.
Riley judged Maya for finally getting good grades and being happier and having hope again, which is something Maya deserves an apology for. It was huge and rude as hell for Riley to say the things she did. Riley wanted Maya to be better at school and happier and have hope and then the second she did she told Maya that she needed to change back to who she was.
I owe you an apology Ms. Hart
*everybody does*
especially Riley, even if she didn’t have bad intentions tbh 😬😬
Most painful and relatable thing ever said
Okey that hurts, is a underrated character
I owe you an apology Mr Hart
bunnibleu i’ve watched that part like 20 times
I think Maya is so mature and doesn't get enough credit for being such a loving and good person. the writers need to make Riley understand Maya has feelings also and she is emotional, Riley isn't a good friend for saying Maya needs to stay the same Maya she was when she was in middle school but Riley herself is allowed to find herself and grow up mostly mature. Maya is strong and deserves the best life.
Karina Rose we can also say the same for maya she was annoying and wasent there for Riley most of the time
Heather ambrose but Maya let Riley grow, unlike what Riley did by blocking Maya's chance to grow and become a better version of herself.
Heather ambrose Maya was there for Riley. Maya supported Riley in everything. To quote “You’re wrong all the time...... or you’re right, i don’t know, i don’t listen i just stick up for you” Maya supported Riley in every way, and was willing to give up her happiness, just so Riley could be happy
@@heatherambrose4331 omgsh SHE WASN'T THEIR FOR RILEY? WHEN? cause I remember correctly she helped riley with every issue she had even if maya had issues at the time too so to me it seems like ur making a bias opinion cause u think riley is the better character and is seeing everyone else agrees with maya side so when u say dumb things like that plz have something to back it up. Gosh tf is wrong with u
this is beautiful and shows why maya is my favorite character

I'm crying right now you know when Maya was screaming at Riley and Riley was just singing trying to drown her out. I think that's a metaphor for what happened. They are all just telling what to do who to be and how to feel. She's her own person why just why go down this road writers why make up such stupid things when we all know it came out of no where. It's not like she was all sun shine and rainbows that would make more sense and if they would have built it up but they didn't they just through it in our face and said hey Maya became Riley obviously because she likes Lucas it has to be her trying to be like Riley. Just I hate this show it ugh! I'm done I'm done.
all maya did was wear the clothes that SHAWN bought her and all of a sudden she’s “riley” and i hate how they just made the whole lucas thing her being riley like wtf
Dayana Gonzalez exactly like honestly Maya was just *maturing* and they wanted to pass it off as “turning into Riley” which now that I look back at it it’s really annoying
Ikr tbh they arnt even dressing the same litrelly. Most girls have their hair down. Most girls and boys change their style. She wasnt even riley. Tbh the writers did this on purpouse and i strongly believe that if disney didnt cancel it they would have made an episode of maya confronting riley. Maya was maturing. Like it feels like people just want to use maya to keep them happy. She was happy with her new clothes and grades. She was smiling so much. Then when everyone was accusing her and riley started to shout at her she got confused and upset. You can tell by her voice. Lucas loved maya maya loved lucas. Riley was selfish just to get lucas. Talk about toxic. Josh was manipulative. Guess it runs through riley and josh. Just lying for themselves. Maya kept saying she was fine. like what? Does riley want maya to be happy? Tbh the onlt reason maya changed was because she found her hope. And realised she needed to be better to achieve a future. I hate when riley fans state that riley is depressed. SRIOUSLY. WHY WOULD RILEY BE DEPRESSED IF SHE IS THE MEAN ONE AND SHE HAS A FAMILY. WHY WOULD SHE BE DEPRESSED OVER A BOY. i get the bullying but she got friends to help her and you can be depressed for like a week. Riley fans need to stop lu
Ying to make riley and intresting character.
Same
@@shazanwar8950you ate
When Farkle changed out of his turtleneck and bowl hairstyle people accepted him for it, but when Maya got better grades and changed clothing styles people automatically think somethings wrong with her. I don’t understand?
I understand maya
They always say smile more
You need to come out more
You need to wear more colours why always black
Now that I do they say ohh you changed or you look better I love that you smile more you look better
But to be honest it's all
*Pretending*

@@taehyungkim4267 Jesus Christ loves you x
let's talk about how she "acted like riley" but then when she "acted out" they were still like no this isn't you
Everyone on the show to Maya: you should do better in school!!!! Try and do good !!!!
Maya: *finally does well in school*
Everyone: u haven’t been urself lately :///
Everyone on the show: you should have hope and believe in urself or else you’ll never succeed!!! Be happy !!!
Maya: *is happy, is hopeful*
Everyone: u haven’t been urself lately :///
Maya: *has a crush on a guy three Years older than her*
Everyone: sorry sweetie, he’s too old for you!!! u should move on
Maya: likes a nice (in her opinion) guy, who is her age
Everyone: u don’t REALLy like him, u only like him because you’re Riley Now :////
This stupid ass show: preaches the mantra “people change people” in every fucking lesson
Maya: *is changed as a person by Riley, is happy and does well in school and tries to do well*
Everyone: u have changed as a person and are improving because of it and we don’t like it ://///
preach.
True
Preach it!
girl 👌
True lol😂😂😂
Riley literally said she’s still trying to figure out who she is....Maya is not allowed to...
Huh
I really don't like this whole "you became me" thing. What's wrong with Maya getting good grades, what's wrong with her being more mature then rebel? What's wrong with the clothes and hair, who even cares about that? Damn, this is insane. She can't always be that "bad girl" who jumps at teacher's desk and does all the crazy staff, she's growing up, it's normal. And has nothing to do with "becoming Riley". I get that this show is about her story, but it's just too much. Too much "all about Riley" for me. Come on, there're other characters as well, they each deserve their own character development!
Anyways, this video is stunning. Definitely goes to my favorites ♡
Yeah, I totally agree with you! Riley totally misunderstood the situation this time, Maya didn't turned into Riley at all. She only grew, embraced hope and changed for the better! (btw people change people, right?!). And thank you
IKR
someone said it finally
I agree, she's only growing up. And everyone else wants her to be a rebel? It's good that she's becoming GOOD.
By the way, after the group tries to change Farkle back in Yearbook, Farkle admits he's still Farkle but is growing up & trying to change. They let him do that. Adding to that, people don't tell Lucas to be his Texas self all the time. But when Maya tries to change, nobody'll let her.
Preach! 👏👏👏
People who believe in this "Maya turned into Riley" thing need to learn the concept of character development, this video is amazing, showing how maya IS maya and her voice is still her voice
But that’s literally what happened in the show… exactly…she even confirms it herself. Maybe people wanted it to be more but the people who made the character and know her the best made it an identity crisis so that’s what it was.
@@ColorlessMayhem That's the issue, it was a massive cop out - That's what everyone hates about this storyline. There was all this amazing character growth that was suddenly haphazardly reframed as an identity crisis.
Riley always told Maya to have hope and now that she does Riley wants her to lose it.
So toxic
@@adeleaslan8182 that’s not what riley said
"She is getting good grades, she's behaving all over the place. What's that?"
GROWTH
This should be mandatory viewing for everyone who is buying the Maya-turned-into-Riley story. Stahp looking at the birdie and look at this stunning video instead. Immaculate.
I agree with your friend
@@breathinxbutterflyi1501 Some people are very literal. Subtext will go straight over their heads.
I'm starting to hate Riley, she's like: Oh, everybody walks around me. Maya, you are copying me. Ugh
Paulo Pérez that’s not true
Paulo Pérez yeah she acting like she the greatest thing that ever happened. I never knew that someone could not change for the better but when someone does, it changes them “negatively.” That never made sense to me and Riley was a terrible friend. She is a very privileged child and never knew how to be there for Maya but expected Maya to be there for her. That is so disgustingly rude on so many levels🥺🥺
Kimaya Jones exactly Riley is so fucking toxic
Jayden Faulkner actually it is
Dude come on realy riley
She was just looking out for her friend
I think she did changed, but Riley just perceived it wrong. Unlike Riley, Maya actually grew up - more quicker than Riley. Riley has a mind of young teenager however Maya is a different case.
Maya grew up quick because of her broken pieces, she became mature. A young woman. Maya is Riley's guardian, like a mother. Riley expects Maya to be there for her as a friend and Maya follows that because she knows that Riley needs her. Riley rebels still yet Maya transitioned into a young woman.
Idk, probably not write but I feel it in my bones ridin through like lucas did on a pony
IT wAs A ShEeP!
Maya did change. She grew up and matured, indeed because of how broken she was. But she realized, as she did, that there was hope. That she did have a future. And that’s how she changed. She became more hopeful and prepared to be a better everything. And that, apparently, makes her Riley. Which I strongly disagree with.
i have lost count of the amount of times i have watched this video. somehow, i always find myself coming back to this video and being at a loss of words. your editing, the song, this whole thing is perfect. a masterpiece.
aw, thank you so much, it means a lot
Oh my god, this is incredible! And so spot on. I too am obsessed with reading theowldetective's analysis of the show. Riley is so so wrong about Maya and the issue in this arc and honestly I hope Maya gets an apology from her one day about this whole thing because she's been a tad mean even if she has good intentions. We can see from an outside perspective how skewed Riley's view is because Maya always sacrifices for her, she very rarely stands up to her like Riley thinks she does. And she's screaming not because she's lost herself and become Riley, but because she's torn up about the triangle and how she thinks it's going to ruin her friendship with Riley.
ʏɛs! ʟʊċaʏa
I'm all for her but you do have to consider the fact that Maya "Riley committeed" Riley the whole time.
I'm obsessed with theowldetective too
misslolohannah Mayas been mean to her in so many seasons tho ans she never gets an apology like Maya saying Riley was never good enough to do cheerleading did riles ever get an apology then or like in gm upstate Cory says be quite baby Cory and maya replies with oh your ganna protect me from her did riles ever get an apology or when high school maya says how am I in a triangle with this that was disrespectful she didn't even get an apology when Maya said she needed a break from Riley beliveing in things so why should Riley be the one aplolgizing
the teacher : "i owe you an apology miss hart."
maya : "everybody does"
so relatable..almost everybody who's come into my life has hurt my badly..and left me feeling broken...i dont trust people no more.
this is so perfect. if anyone still thinks riley is right about this after watching this video there is something seriously wrong with them. fantastic job! wish I could edit like this :)
ʏօʊ'ʀɛ sօ ʀɨɢɦt
Right

🎊
the thing is riley thinks maya is someone who stands up for what she believes in SHES NOT, she always has let people push her over she has never fought for something. she did bad things (e.g. standing on a teachers desk) because she needed attention she needed someone to look at her because her father (and occasionally mother) never were there for her and she changed because she found people that cared for her
Maya Ismail her mom was never there cause she was working
I think she was someone who stands up for what she believes in because she was one of the only ones that was almost always herself and didnt try to change to impress anyone, had her own unique style, and didnt let anyone get to her. I agree with the attention thing and that its why she behaved badly and that she changed vecaise she found a family in her friends, they changed her for the better by showing her that she didn't need any attention because they were always gonna be there for her and they pushed her to stand up for what she wanted like when the art class was gonna be cut but at a point Riley crissed a line
I dont even watch the show, and thats how u can tell this is a good video bc u kept me CAPTIVATED all the way through, literally I honestly loved this!! I loved how you showed maya as being completely her own person, you showed how unique she is without me knowing anything about her, honestly well done! amazing editing also
Aww, thank you so much! It means a lot
I'm pretty sure that I already commented on this video but I have to do it again. This video is one of the best videos I have ever seen on RUclips and I have been on here for so many years, watching edits BUT THIS ONE. I LOVE IT SO MUCH. It just proves how stupid the whole "you became me" thing is. It also shows how amazing Maya Hart is. I always come back to this video. The amount of times that I have watched this video is not healthy. I LOVE IT SO MUCH. Whenever she says "what's wrong with who I am now?" my heart shatters into a million pieces. I love this video so much and wanna thank you for it 💕
AWWW THIS COMMENT MADE ME SO HAPPY! Thank you, it means a lot to me
belovesick this is really beautiful loved it xxxxxxx :)
I'm not buying any of the writer's "Maya became Riley" bs. The past few episodes are just that: a load of bs. The show continuously preaches "people change people"... and yet, as soon as Maya begins to change--new hair, new clothes, liking the same boy as her best friend, getting good grades, having _hope_... they start saying that she's "become someone else". Honestly, Maya is so, so much easier to relate to and that's why I really want Lucaya to be endgame. *sigh*
On a side note (lol): this video is absolutely stunning; too beautiful for words. It's so aesthetically pleasing and I agree with your message :)
This! Istg maya did nothing wrong and on the topic of lucaya they would've worked out so well, lucas is one of the only people that can calm maya down, and maya cares for lucas
The way Maya looks and sounds when she says "I just got it" (referring to hope) makes me so happy but so sad oh my goodness this video is incredible
riley was a total jerk in that episode. like when maya said “what’s wrong with us both liking a nice guy?” and riley just said “do we?” in this sassy voice as if the world revolves around her and no feelings matter but hers and it just put me off. and she was just mean about “keeping lucas” and was so inconsiderate towards maya’s feelings that maya was manipulated into thinking she was someone else. and that whole maya became riley storyline was really ridiculous. like there had to be one perfect good girl and one messed up rebel for the world to work. they were teaching her all these lessons and when she finally decided to listen they all blew up on her. she was just growing up. maya isn’t defined by how many times she’s in detention and in opinion she didn’t even change that much aside from her clothes and her not being in detention. and when people tried to make her “back to normal” she retaliated saying that she didn’t want her place in the group to be the lying thief but they didn’t listen. and maya wasn’t allowed to feel what she wanted to feel because riley had lucas first and any possibility that lucas may have liked maya was crushed because either way he was tied to riley. and maya wasn’t allowed to be right. it was always riley and i just got sick of it.
lol none of my friends like girl meets world so i just had to rant
thank you for coming to my ted talk

I love everything about this comment, I agree 100%
thank you for calling out all the bs I couldn't put into words. I hate the whole Maya turned to Riley plot line in order to protect her. like they contradicted everything the show said, ppl change ppl, and everything you showed.
she is the best character on this show, honestly. so realistic and relatable, i love her and thats why i want lucaya, i want her to have the good guy who will always be there for her, just like lucas, cmon she deserves that!! great video btw 💖
I will be forever grateful that you made this video. It just highlights Maya's personal growth as well as the multiple moments where her loved ones unconsciously repressed/prevented that growth. It shows how pleasant she is and no matter what anybody says, she's still going to be herself.
You put Maya Hart on a pedestal and presented her as the beauty that she is as a character. Thank you for this! :'D
This show needs a book through Maya’s eyes.
I don't like Riley tbh she's to bosses I like Maya more better
Am_that_weird_girl !! You should switch it up
King _kai15 that’s not true she’s a really good friend
I love riley and maya hey both are sameee
Samee
Honestly going through Lucaya videos because I miss them. I missed their dynamic. Their relationship.
It really made me angry when the triangle was "resolved." It angered me because after it was so called "resolved", Lucas and Maya never actually had a real conversation with each other like they used to. It became awkward, and to me it became apparent that they were ignoring each other. Say all you want about Maya never liking Lucas or Lucas never liking Maya, but if they never liked each other... why is there so much reflection over their relationship? Why did the love triangle last so long if Riley and Lucas were meant to be- if he never liked Maya? Why would they not have a real conversation with each other after the triangle was resolved? They hardly talked, hardly looked each other in the eye. It was mostly for Rileys benefit- and their group. This makes me want to do a fanfiction- one that isn't immature (12 year olds wrote) like some I've come across. Girl Meets World ended, but my love for Lucaya hasn't.
LITERALLYYY
i am broken after this video.. i've cried 3 hours straight after watching this. this is so pure and emotional! honestly the best Maya video out there
This is literally the best fan edit of this show i've maybe ever seen like I HAVE SO MANY EMOTIONS THIS IS JUST WHAT I NEEDED
I feel like Maya is so underrated. I almost cried in this episode. Maya sacrifices everything for her friends. She does everything possible, even if it hurts her, so Riley can be happy! How can someone not see that?
It's so stupid to say that Maya became Riley. Did Maya become Riley? No! Maya matured, she feel in love and she started caring. She started caring about school and she starting becoming happy.
Honestly I was so pissed at Riley in this episode. Is Riley the only one who can be happy?!
Honestly I don't think Lucas picked Riley. I think Maya backed off, cause that's what she does. She does everything so the people she loves can be happy. Who can honestly believe the reason Maya liked Lucas was "because she wanted to protect Riley" and all that crap?
I think Maya didn't change. Instead she just started to show who she was in the inside.
What hurt me the most was when Riley said to "fix her" Maya isn't a toy. She's the same Maya she's always been: kind, caring and fierce.
Sometimes I feel like Riley doesn't deserve Maya as a friend. She hurts Maya so much and she doesn't even realize it.
Maya's strong. She's beautiful and bold. And she's fierce. Regardless of the clothes she wears or the grades she gets, she's the same girl. The same Maya who cares WAY too much for her friends, so much that it hurts her. Sometimes I really wish I had a friend like Maya. A friend that would go out of their way to make me happy. Riley doesn't know how lucky she is. Riley doesn't deserve Maya.
I was so disappointed in Lucas over the ski lodge thing. But honestly, I feel like he hurt her a lot too.
Maya honestly need ps a person that will not judge her and that will make her happy. I don't care if she's with Lucas or with Josh or with any other guy. I just want her to be happy cause she deserves it.
Exactly omgg
THIS IS SPOT ON! I am so unbelievably annoyed with this "Maya became Riley" storyline. Its a load of BS! I love Riley but so far this season she has been annoying the hell out of me. Can Maya just be happy for once in her life...
Honestly I don't get how Maya became Riley, all the episodes that we saw leading up to this episode, she always seemed like Maya to me not Riley. If anything I thought that she was growing up, but she was still Maya, she still was sarcastic and sassy but she was also starting to mature and get good grades. She starting getting hope, too. I thought thats what Riley wanted for Maya. I don't get how Riley can say that when her father taught her the answer a little while ago, people change people, she changed Maya, and because of her Maya is maturing, but she's not becoming Riley, she still Maya she's just growing up. And I also don't get how Riley can say that, but when Farkle starts to grow up and become more mature, she lets him and did nothing. I guess I kinda see where Riley is coming from a little but I still don't see how Maya became Riley. I also feel bad because when she starts to be "Maya", all Riley could do is think of all the bad situations that happened and pinned them on Maya. I don't remember her stealing money when she was younger. I don't remember her pulling a fire alarm. I remember her setting off sprinklers on accident. I remember her taking a Locket from the lost in found because she wanted it to have a home, because she felt bad that something so beautiful was lost. She wanted the locket because the locket symbolized her.
Sry I'm weirdly passionate about this topic.
kassandra lee great now I'm crying. 😭That was so beautiful! Don't apologize those were some awesome insights! :)
I love this sm! Seriously you explained the topic so well
I don't understand the writers, what was their life lesson/message? Don't try hard in school and get yourself in trouble? Cause that's the vibe they gave off.
I think they're trying to tell the viewers to be yourself, but they failed on that and instead taught a bad lesson (getting yourself into trouble).
And the other good lesson that the writers are trying to teach, is that the people we surround ourselves with influence us.
Okay Chanelle basically " fit your friends needs and if you used to be a slacker in school and your bff an a+ student and suddenly you're doing better in school you're really becoming her and you should stop immediately or else you may start liking the same boy as her even though you seem to like him for totally different reasons than she does. hope IS for suckers!"
The writers are shit, they created this triangle by accident and when people started watching the show because of it, they explored it.. but in the end (again, because they are shit) they went for the cliche romance that screams disney all over it, gave the worst explanation in the history of explanations for the triangles's "solution", and destroyed what could have been they're best school lesson: First love is not always the only person you are going to fall in love with, and it's even more special the second time because it teaches you that you can be loved again.
Laura Mag that WAS the lesson. They didn't get to finish it though because it got canceled
Maya is so strong!!! she's inspiration: Problems with her family, school, and she still so nice and kind to everyone
that video mkaes me cry always😭
Beautiful video honestly I am speechless, it's so emotional and captures Maya's feelings perfectly. I completely agree Maya is just growing up it doesn't mean she's turning into Riley she's just becoming a better version of herself :)
Exactly! Thank you, hun
this is literally one of the BEST girl meets world videos ever made. i admire how much thought and work you put into this it is truly a fucking masterpiece
SO SO SO STUNNING!
Thank you so much!!
of course!!!!
When Maya said "Everybody does" in the end, there was so much pain her eyes. She deserves to be happy.
Maya is the most compelling, relatable and realistic Disney Character ever. Change my mind.
I gotta say, Riley is an incredible toxic friend and this is why: when maya starts getting good grades and maturing Lucas started liking her more and Riley realized, so she tried to make maya self conscious so she would be more immature so she could have Lucas
Maya was starting to feel less depressed and less sad but Riley telling Maya to be more depressed and shit like that She can't understand that Maya is growing up ofc she won't fucking be a rebel or do shit anymore she wants to be mature
I wish so many people would stop hating on Riley she was the best character in gmw for many reasons she was kind, caring, selfless, she always put her friends needs above her own for example Riley always liked Lucas then Maya decides she likes him too that was so wrong of her you can't say if that happened to you that you wouldn't be angry cause anyone would if they found out who they thought was their best friend wanted to date their longtime crush but that's more proof Riley was such a great friend she would have been so happy if Lucas had chosen Maya cause she cared about Maya feelings more than her own and I'm not saying I agree with Riley about Maya becoming her but she had good intentions she was just genuinely worried about her friend
@@kanejshipper Regarding the whole "Don't like your best friend's crush" thing, I think this concept is kind of flawed. Reason being, you can't really predict who you are going to like and I get why the person who liked them first would be angry but it's still a bit unreasonable. You can't stop someone from liking who they like and in the end, it's the crush who chooses who they want to be with so......yeah this whole thing is just flawed. Its not a decision you can make like that and Maya was evidently conflicted about her feelings. She didn't intentionally start to like him.
@@lani50 yes Maya may not be able to help her feelings but she never should've acted on them knowing how much Riley always liked Lucas Maya should've just pretended she didn't like Lucas until she could move on that's what a real friend would do if you're a real friend you don't want to date your best friend's longtime crush just imagine you always liked someone then you find out your best friend the person you trusted most in the world wants to date that person knowing you like them that's so wrong anyone would be so upset at Maya if they were in Riley's place all the ones taking Maya's side are only taking her side because it didn't happen to them if the same happened to them as Riley they'd agree with her people should try to understand how upset Riley must be but she's still being an amazing friend to Maya this shows how mean some people can be by bashing Riley for no reason
@@lani50 and I appreciate you're not talking bad about Riley's character, thanks😊 it's hard having a debate with people when they are so set on hating Riley for no reason just like I don't hate Maya's character I was just disappointed in her with the way she did the Lucas thing she was an amazing friend until the series decided to do the Maya Lucas Riley storyline that never should've happened at least Maya eventually goes back to liking Josh instead of still wanting to date Lucas
I keep hitting replay every time the video ends, it becomes more beautiful every time I watch it.
I love how you showed Riley's hypocrisy during the "Maya has become Riley" storyline. Mad props.
sabrina is actually such a good actor in her serious parts. Its amzing
This is the most beautiful GMW edit I've ever seen. Truthfully.
This is truly beautiful and amazing, thank you so much for creating this. Please continue to share your talent.
"Schooool is over!"
"No, now its art class."
"Ooh thats the one I like!"
you just got yourself a new subscriber, i dont know how I've never seen your channel before today but im SO GLAD now that i did!!!
THIS IS AMAZING AND SO ON POINT AND EXACTLY WHAT I FELT WHEN I SAW THE EPISODE.
I was so mad with how they handled her 'identity crisis' I hated it. Maya turned into a great teenager, she's still fierce and speaks her voice and is still full of fire, but she's not gloomy and pessimistic as much anymore, she smiles so much MORE, shes getting good grades, she's not falling behind in her school work, she's not wasting time in detention and getting a bad record. And clothes and hair have nothing to do with that. I think the only reason Maya thinks she's become RIley is because Riley is making her believe so and she's also planting this seed in her head about Lucas and her feelings for him even though she clearly started liking him when she was still acting as herself in season 2!
This was a perfect example of who Maya truly is, amazing job!
Yessss, is like Lucas said in GMFarkle "but if you get called something enough, don’t you start believing it?", Riley pushed so hard that Maya started believing it too. When the art teacher says that she hasn't lost her voice is already too late, they only pay attention to the purple cat. :|
And thank you so much, sweetie!
ugh that 'what's wrong with who i am now' line breaks my heart so much
BEST MAYA VIDEO EVER
"I owe you an apology, Ms. Hart"
"everybody does"
_why did i felt that in my soul_
This is perfect, misunderstood and logical all at the same time and I love it.
This made me cry.😭 This was stunning. Maya has had a lot of names actually thrown at her and comments about her family style. I don't think she was trying to be Riley I think she was trying to be the best person she could be, who happened to be Riley. She wasn't painting a purple cat because she was becoming Riley it's because Riley is her inspiration. Which is why she was inspired to pick that bench
Yeah what the heck is up with everyone thinking she became Riley? She grew up. She became more mature. I agree with the description entirely.
Absolutely love this video the background sound was on point too. "Nonsense, it's impossible to become someone else." 😒 Congrats Riley, you just proved yourself stupid
"Iowe you an apology miss Hart"
"Everybody does"
That hit me on a cellular level...
It hurt so badly when they, mainly Riley, forced an identity crisis on her. I know Riley felt lost too, but her telling Maya that she couldn't change or grow as a person made her actually have the identity crisis that she did. The reason Maya painted the purple cat is because Riley made her SO DISTRESSED. Any time Maya tried to stand up for herself, Riley would tear her down, they would tear her down. So she went back to the way things were because at least then, she wasn't under constant attack. It just kills me because she found hope, love, and let herself CARE. And they ruined that for her.
EXACTLY
"I owe you an apology Mrs Hart" everyone does" omg I literally started crying that was so😭😭
Mann best character video, you captured her so well. incredibly beautiful
It’s 2023 and this video still hurts the same 💔
Maya didn't change, she matured she showed her true self.
Lucas didn't pick Riley, Maya backed off.
Maya didn't cause trouble in order to be deemed a rebel, she was very neglected and tried to gain attention in order to fill the hole in her heart.
Maya always helped and cared for other people and didn't care about who they were or how they changed she still accepted them.
Every one says "people change people" than when Maya showed what she was truly like they say " fix her" like she's an object or "Maya this isn't you" they aren't accepting who she is, Maya Hart is a pure angel. Either way Maya is still just a girl who went through too much at young age.
Real
My eyes teared up watching it. It's perfect.
i haven’t seen this video in a while but the part where Riley says “i’m still figuring out who i am” was so heartbreaking because she was given the space to whereas anytime Maya explored herself she was shut down by Riley…
YES I am so glad someone has finally made this, amazing job
i always come back to this video bc everything’s changing and it helps me see that that’s ok and i’m still me. i relate to her so much… there’s nothing wrong with who i am now.maya helped me see that.
What made my heart break the most was when she said “what’s wrong with who I am now” on the fact I know what that feels like she felt that she had to “be” a Riley to get the guy, to get love and be validated. We all have our role models or somebody we wish we were...Maya saw the things Riley had and became her because she wanted more to have what she had the father, the mom, the love...she felt broken because she wasn’t Riley
I've been watching this video everyday since it came out and it still gets me every time because I feel like we are the only ones who see it the way your video expresses it. She didn't really change. I want to show the writes this video because right now I'm pretty sure they're blind. IM JUST CONFUSED because those are the same people that wrote Boy Meets World. It just doesn't make sense and it was such a stupid way to end the triangle.
I love Maya Hart so much & I think it's the most important thing that she's happy. I mean if she's happy the way it is right now then so am I but I just don't think that the storyline makes sense. "You became me." It annoys me, it annoys me.
"My voice is still my voice." THIS LINE IS SOOO IMPORTANT.
"You want me to go home? I'll go home."
I love this video so much, thank you for uploading it.
I've watched this like 20 times! This is amazing. I love this editing! This is the most fantastic editing ever!! I LOVE THIS!!
You know what i find so precious about this ? Maya stand up for her self, she knows who she really is and is not discourage by others prejudices about her, she doesn't need to fit the image of who she is supposed to be, there's nothing wrong about being her now, because that's who she is.
What bothered me SO MUCH about them trying to convince everyone that Maya became Riley (which makes absolutely no sense) is that they act as if Maya can’t evolve. As if she can’t grow, and do better for herself as her life gets better. People don’t just stay in a dark place, they grow and evolve from it. That’s what Maya did. Her personality never changed ONCE. The only thing that changed was her willingness to do better for herself.
Riley says: "She's gotten good grades, she's behaving all over the place" and "Not stood on a teachers desk, no detention in a while"... Like how the fk is that a bad thing?! That's growth right there! That's MATURING! And we're framing this as a bad thing? That growing up and changing is a bad thing?
This arc, was the worst written arc in the entire show, and it's NOT close.
Not only that but Maya became hopeful and they instantly turned her down, all she did was get good grades because she has a better life now, and she changed her clothing because Shawn bought her new clothing, and shes liked Lucas from the very start and can’t hide her feelings any more. She became hopeful for things and all of sudden shes Riley? Its so heartbreaking
@@nicki6355 You’re absolutely correct! There was no sense behind that arc at all. Maya was just growing up, and losing that childish/rebel personality that stemmed from having to always take care of herself while her mom was constantly at work and her daddy issues. Being around Riley and her family, and resolving her own familial issues, would only make her mature and lose that childish/rebellious behavior. Maya matured and started to see life in a different way, while staying true to herself. Never once did I think her maturity was linked to becoming Riley. She’s always acted like herself. I hate what the writers tried to pull off. And don’t get me started on the Josh and Maya storyline. That always made me sick to my stomach.
@@mikewheeler-jt8zt It really is! I hate what the writers did to her storyline. I always felt that they should have made Maya end up with Lucas and Riley end up with Farkle. The fact that they even hinted that Josh was willing to be with Maya after she graduated made me sick. I always hated that storyline as well.
I'm not okay, I'm crying 😭😭💘 finally someone makes what I'm think
Why does Disney always brings out the fact that a perfect girl with a perfect family should always have a happy ending and the broken best friend should stay broken.
I don't understand the fact that throughout the show everyone's been preaching about how great having hope is but when Maya finally has hope. It's a bad thing? Character development is a thing. Why is getting a good grade a bad thing? Not getting into trouble? The turning into Riley thing was absolutely ridiculous.
"You had to take it out on somebody. I'm glad you felt safe enough to take it out on me"
Wow
Fr that made me cry that she took her anger out on her
Such a shitty end to my favourite show.
Why is maturity and growing up suddenly becoming someone else?
Such an amazing video that speaks so much truth.
"I owe you an apology miss Hart"
"Everybody does..."
Look she’s my favorite character and well this was really emotional it felt like I was reliving this all over again
My Opinion
Okay so- When Maya finally tries to start being who she is Riley and everybody else says "This isn't you!" she's finding who she is now! And Riley is trying to change her "back" so now what if Maya is faking being a rebel and really wants to be good, and have good grades. Riley even said "it's impossible to become someone else." and she's right all Maya is trying to do is become who she is now, and Riley's stopping her... Maya keeps saying "I'm me! I've always been me!" and Riley is basically saying no. I loved the last part where it's like "Ms. Hart I owe you an apology..." "everybody does." LIKEEEEE BRUH I WAS CRYING. Either way I hate this whole Becoming Riley thing XDD (Btw THIS EDIT GIVES LIFE)
BarbieGirl 159 Agree agree agree
Riley was so self centered, and whenever Maya needed help or liked someone, Riley was self centered about it.
This is absolutely beautiful. One of the best maya videos I've ever seen
Thank you so much!!
“I owe you and apology ms.hart” “everybody does” that’s another level of deep
this is all so spot on and so beautiful!! you killed it omg brilliant job
I think what made me love this show so damn much was Maya, because I’ve never seen myself in a character before. Her story was just like mine, her life was just like mine. the way she is, is just like how I am. I was just as broken. Ik it was just a show but seeing her character made me feel like I wasn’t alone.🥺❤️
damn this was everything i was feeling and screaming inside since that episode aired. i really hope the writers go back and say riley was wrong
this is honestly one of the best fan videos ever! Like the music behind it just blends with it perfectly! a true piece of art! it's fantastic!
You see the most messed up thing about the way this series ended is because it ended with the idea that "Maya moved to Rileytown" and "she became someone she's not". That's not what happened...she got brighter, she found things to believe in and people who believe in her. She found happiness. But the show is saying that "No. You are sad. You are hurt. You are broken. You can't be bright, you can't get good grades, you can't be optimistic - that's Riley. You're becoming her". Why can't Maya just be happy? She doesn't have to stay broken. Why can't she *become* happy?
Riley: "The world already has one of me, it needs one of you!"
That's a really f'ed up way of saying "I'm happy and successful, so you can't be".
Maya was completely right by saying, "What's wrong with us both liking a nice guy", and "I'm still me". For a supportive friend, Riley had some pretty contradictory lines.
She deserves way more and I love this edit so much
