After months of fighting RUclips's copyright system and facing a horde of other technical difficulties, "A Love Letter to The Owl House" is **finally** completed and released. I can't promise that Disney won't try to claim this again at some point, but know that if they do I will just appeal it once more and you'll see it pop up again soon enough. Thank you all for your patience over the last half year. I hope I've made it worth your while, and I really hope you enjoy this eight-hour behemoth I've put together. It is the equivalent of my Toy Story 4 analysis in the complete opposite direction, in that I poured every ounce of passion, heart, and soul I have in my body into this video. After a certain amount of time spent being too close to a particular project of yours, you start to hate because of how much time you spend stressing over every minor detail. But even through it all, I think I managed to communicate that passion to the best of my ability in this video, and I don't think I'll ever be able to make something of this scale with this level of intensely specific and pedantic care for the rest of my life. Maybe this'll never break 100K views. Hell, maybe it'll never even come close to reaching _50_K views. But this has been a labor of love in every sense of the phrase, and that's all I need to be content with what I've created. Just like how my Dragon's Lair 3D praise video still hasn't broken 20K views, but it will still always be one of my proudest videos. Out of every creative project I have ever been a part of throughout my life, absolutely nothing has come close to the levels of stress that A Love Letter to The Owl House put me through; I talk about this more extensively in the video itself, but basically every step of the production of this video was an absolute nightmare for one reason for another. Except, I suppose, the initial script writing process where I poured out every ounce of passion I had. Because if it wasn't already clear, I adore this show with all my heart in a way I haven't felt towards anything in a long time. And I hope that, after everything, you can feel that passion when you watch this.
there was a hunter analysis video i watched that pointed out that since belos had Hunter marked with a coven sigil it showed that he never actually expected hunter to succeed since he had already basically damned him to die once his plan was underway. he had no intention of bringing hunter with him and it was just another one of his lies
Also the fact that when he meets Luz and Eda, Belos has sent him to retrieve Selkie domus scales. As we see in that one book, it's an ingredient required for the making of grimwalkers. He was probably gonna start fresh with a new golden guard in the human world, one that wouldn't be "influenced by the treachery of witches." He would finally have his perfect brother that turned out "normal" and loyal to him.
i just wanna rant how cool hunter was with his mask besdies it being a act with him playing and being care and the mask is very cool i wish there was a character like this
I don't remember you mentioning it but I wanted to point out probably my favourite Eda moment. It's after Luz dies and King goes berserker mode, before attacking she scoots the Collector out of the way. Like, here she is, she just lost her daughter and is on the cusp of being swallowed up by more rage and grief than she's ever felt before, and her first instinct is still to make sure they're safe. It's a moment that perfectly encapsulates Eda's character.
Going to be working my way through the whole video, but thank you so much for making this! I can’t even begin to imagine the amount of work, time, and effort that went into an 8 hour in depth analysis on the show. So happy that you found it and that it brought you some joy. Thanks for watching!
Holy titan this completely made my day; I was not expecting anyone who worked on the show to _ever_ see this video Thank you for checking out my video, and thank you and the entire team from the bottom of my heart for bringing this show to the world :)
@@GamingMagic13 The crew loves this show and we know we got to make something special. Seeing videos like this just solidifies that feeling even more when we get to hear how much The Owl House means to people and how great fans of the show are.
1:08:44 THANK. YOU!!! I was so mad when people were complaining about Hootie not diagnosing King with having titan’s blood. Like… He literally said he was testing for demon’s blood and that they were inconclusive. It’s like if you have a sore throat and go to the doctors. They test for things like strep and c-vid. What if the tests come back negative? Does that mean you’re not sick? Of course not! I just means they have to test for something else because the tests they conducted were for certain viruses.
We already know what their problem will be... "Whaa video too long! This guy's definitely just repeating himself and yapping useless stuff for the sake of making the video longer!" And to that there's only one good response: 🤡
@@ColorlessRonin ohhh I get it now, it’s those ones that always find something to complain even tho they’d actually love this video if it wasn’t 8 hours?
"Please watch the show before you watch this video" bold of you to assume there are many people that would watch an 8 hour analysis about a show they haven't seen yet. On the other hand I just watched an analysis about the ending of how I met your mother, despite not having seen a single episode, so you got me there. I loved your "This will be talked about in 3 hours" comment which made me realize how long this video actually is And man, I wish I could experience this show for the first time again.
My dad's former coworker/family friend came out to us as gay a few years back. I remember discussing with him how he feels about being gay and his feelings about pride parades and pride month. He honestly said that he doesn't like it and just wants to feel normal and accepted like everyone else. There doesn't need to be a big song and dance about him being gay, he doesn't want to be celebrated for being gay and he doesn't want being gay to be a big deal. He just wants to feel normal and left alone. I feel like the Owl House does an amazing job at having representation feel normal without shoehorning it in, having it make no sense or calling attention to it just to get LGBT+ brownie points. I feel like nowadays there's a growing group of people in the LGBT+ community that just want to be seen as normal and don't want to be pointed out or used for brownie points
Im a gay man, and me personally I really like pride parades and things like that, I grew up in a space where being queer was either portrayed as disgusting or completely ignored, so seeing it being portrayed as something to be celebrated and something thats beautiful, is really healing. But I completely understand his desire to have it be completely normalized, not something to point out as out of the ordinary
i can see both sides of why a person would and wouldnt like pride month. those who have felt shunned and quieted love feeling supported by those like them, while people who grew up being bullied for being gay or even slightly more feminine/masculine would like to just be treated like the norm.
Pride isn't really a celebration of "someone is gay" tho. It's a celebration of the stonewall riots and the fact that we have the rights to say that out loud now, thanks to all the people who fought for us.
Something I find fun about Belos is that, while he is a scarily competent manipulator and a physically imposing threat second only to the Collector, he also never stopped being a kid who was playing at being a witch-hunter. He keeps clinging onto his fantasies from childhood and you can tell he's having fun whenever he gets into a fight, using the magic powers he should be by all rights be despising with clear joy. He's stuck in the past in all respects, never able to mature beyond the point his brother abandoned him for the isles. It's why his Inner Belos him as a child, as thats all hes ever been. Once he consciously takes it over via rune-magic he morphs into adult-body, but as we can see from his further shapeshifting this is not because he was tricking them before with a false visage but because his magic allows him to freely mold his mental projection however he wants.
39:17 also i'd say that Flap being able to bring Hunter back like that doubly makes sense when you take into account that palisman magic comes from them being made out of palistrom wood, and grimwalkers are also partially made out of palistrom wood, and 'powered by magic' in general! just given that the way Belos snorts them up and the way Flap's magic absorbs into Hunter looks and seems a bit different, I think that may account for the difference and all.
The Owl House was so incredibly special to me. It reached into the life of a lonely, closeted, autistic kid and told me that I would find my people. I held it so close to my heart. But as I grew and matured and did find those friends it promised, I started to grow away from the fandom. This reminded me why I loved this show. The passion you put into your videos has always been really meaningful to me, but this means more than anything. Thanks.
Thank you for pointing out the stupid criticisms thrown toward Hunter. He’s a great character and there’s a reason why he’s so beloved by fans. As for said criticisms,….I think I know exactly who you’re referring to when judging them. I won’t give names but it rhymes with Wily and Torchid😒
70 thousand views is absolutely criminal for an 8 hour video, you deserve way way more for such a massive culmination of time and effort. Ill be watching this over the next week and sending it to everybody i know. Just reading the timestamps already lets me know this is an incredibly in depth video. Honestly this is the kind of effort youd hope to see in creators with millions of subscribers, heres to hoping you get there soon
If I didn’t know any better I’d say it’s impressive that 70,000 (now 81,000) people were willing to watch an 8 hour video in it’s entirety, but that’s now how RUclips views work so there you go
@@caribou3552 Yes, and he had some positives about that as well (mainly that the animation was gorgeous). They just get drowned out in the sea of problems.
It's so weird how linked to my life The Owl House has been... When I first saw it, it was right at the end of 2020, I'd just lost my closest friend to conflicts that stemmed from both our traumas. A school friend was bringing me to a late pride walk that just so happened to be the day next to my birthday, and would also lead me to meet the rest of their queer friends. Said friends quickly told me one thing, that I HAD to watch TOH by the time the pride walk happened or else (/hj). So I did. Every day, every morning, before a school I'd drop out of a few months later, I'd watch one or two episodes... There was only season one at the time, and I don't remember a lot besides that it was really good.. I'm a die hard Gravity Falls fan and TOH very much had the same amount of love and quality put into it. Life went on tho, the pride walk turned into a simple meeting as the pride event itself was canceled, the school friend that bought me there gave me the only kiss I ever instantly regretted of my life so far. The group they had introduced me to was nice to hangout with, but as I got back with my closest friend I drifted away from them. We're now in mid 2022, me and my closest friend are back together, it's summer, and I'm pretty sure we just got off a rewatch of Gravity Falls together when I remember, "Hey Lynette, you wanna watch The Owl House?" Once again, the series wasn't done yet, and as Season 2 comes to an end and we're both watching with bated breath, completely thrown around by the twists and turns and just how good the series Still Is. I still vividly remember us theorizing about how they would handle the Collector, as I'm staring into the ceiling, the room is warm and we're both talking about how much dangerous they are being just a child... A few months later she and I would have our final conflict. I was scared about our future. She felt tied down by me, and abandoned me without a word. completely wrecking me with trust and abandonment issues i still suffer from. But that friend group I met at the pride walk, they were still here. They had also changed as some people had left, and new people were there too, but they happily welcomed me back. One fateful day, we're all in voice call, and one of them says "Are you all still good with meeting for the TOH premiere?" They had all still been talking about it since they were big fans, so I knew Thanks to Them was airing soon, but I didn't know they were meeting up to watch it together, to which I immediately perked up and said "can I . come?" So here I was. For the first time taking the train on my own, little soon to be 18 y/o me, socially anxious to death, leaving my home all alone to meet people for the second time ever all to see a cartoon. And we all screamed and cried and sat next to each other, sharing snacks and having fun. It became a thing, For the Future aired and we were all together, watching it... We'd also just meet for random things, we met to see the Mario Movie, to laugh at the Miraculous movie, and sometimes we met just to met. They were the first friends I'd ever been so close to after losing who used to be my closest friend. One of the people in this group I later started dating, and even tho my trauma makes it hard to manage properly, I wouldn't change our relationship for anything else :) I remember when Watching and Dreaming aired. We had watched all the other episodes in Season 3 beforehand, I baked marshmallows for everyone to stress eat in front of the new one... I remember crying so hard at the ending that I didn't even see that Arin Hanson was voicing Papa Titan... All I remember is seeing Darius and Hunter reunite and then melting into tears for the next few hours... My therapist notes this might just be because of my feelings of wanting to belong, and be loved by a parental figure like Hunter was. I introduced the group to Lego Monkie Kid, which is one of my favorite shows of all time, altho having been one of the other last things ever seen with my ex-closest friend, I had never finished watching the last season, and wanted to introduce them to it to all watch it together... I also saw Amphibia after seeing TOH's ending, it was under the veil of having caught a pretty bad Flu thing (I can't remember if it was the C or not) but I still enjoyed it so much, and thanked the group for introducing me to so many good cartoons It had been going well, altho me starting to date my boyfriend had caused a bit of movement in the group (He was already dating someone in it that was pretty toxic and did not like the prospect of him "cheating" on them with me) I was happy. I had friends. I had someone to love. Until they all turned on me (except my boyfriend of course that has stood besides me ever since), a few weeks after my 19th birthday, they all just turned on me. Called me disgusting words, told me I deserved to suffer from ab*sive parents, from my loneliness, from my trauma, from the physical pain I was going thru trying to diagnose what is wrong with my body. and now here I am. I haven't ever had the heart to rewatch TOH in its entirety ever since. I've rewatched Gravity Falls no problem... But this one. It's hard. How much it reminds me of friends I thought I had. People I lost that just lied to me. Of being happy and blissfully unaware. Of the girl who'd call me her sibling, then turn around to wish for me to die alone, asking if I'm ok, because I'm silently sobbing at the epilogue. Of watching my boyfriend with his ab*sive then partner, acting fakely happy when he himself told me he felt forced into the relationship. Of my old closest friend. the girl I owe my life to. and how she threw me away without a care in the world, not even a goodbye, not a sorry, nothing. I can't ever stop me from crying at Gravity Falls' ending for obvious reasons, but TOH. I don't think I can stop myself from crying at any sign of its presence, at any song from it, any heartwarming scene we'd laugh or coo at, at remembering what She or He said at that scene, how we'd all bundle up on the bed, or the couch, finding a way to all sit together properly without anyone being left out. Passing food along especially for that one person in the group that would stress eat in front of the show's twists, they'd later be the one to find my suffering "satisfying" in their own words. I wish i could enjoy the show like I do Gravity falls... As a masterpiece I'm proud of having introduced many people to... A show I come back to watch when times are hard, or just when I'm bored... Something I remember both watching with close people but also that was just playing in the background while I was playing Pokémon once. But it really had to engrain itself in the hardest part(s) of my life. This video is honestly amazing, there is some liiiiittle things I wish you'd have bought up, but I think they might just be things I saw being talked about very loudly in my slice of the fandom and as such it feels weird to not hear them bought up here, like for example the very popular ship of Gus/Mattholomule not having been even hinted at in the epilogue it all makes me wish. i could see the show like you do. a masterpiece your friends introduced you to :)
Thank you for sharing your story. I read through it all and i feel very bad for the stuff you've dealt with. Hoping for a brighter future for you! Also great to see another monkie kid enjoyer, such a good show!
I’m glad you finally made it though RUclips’s copyright, The Owl House is one of Disney’s underrated shows they made, I just love the characters, animation, and storytelling, I love the reactions between Luz, Eda, King and Hooty it truly does not deserve to be cancelled and I’m so happy it deserves it’s praises and loves. Hopefully it’ll get so much attention it deserves.
If you love this show, I promise that you’re 99.9% likely to also like Gravity Falls, Amphibia, and DuckTales 2017. A lot of the same people who worked on this show worked on them, and I watched all episodes of those shows and they’re right up there with TOH for my top favorite shows. Edit: Oh wait nevermind you’ve said so far that you’ve seen those Amphibia and GF. But I still reccomened DuckTales 2017.
I've seen both Gravity Falls and Amphibia to completion, and I'm currently in the middle of checking out Ducktales 2017 for the first time. Among many other things, The Owl House reignited my passion for discovering animated shows
@@GamingMagic13Cool. I also have a few other recommendations, those ones were just my top favorites. The Ghost and Molly McGee, Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts, Hilda, The Amazing World of Gumball, My Life As A Teenage Robot, The Fairly OddParents. Not all of those are big epic stories you need to watch every episode of to get it, some of them are just funny episodic shows. But they’re all great.
@@GamingMagic13 I hope you get a chance to watch South Park,Hazbin hotel,helluva boss,Rick and Morty,Monsters at Work,The Chucky TV Series,The Ted TV series,The Goosebumps TV series (both the original and reboot),Hailey's on it,Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur,and Cyberpunk: Edgerunners,BNA: Brand New Animal,And Captain Laserhawk someday
I hope GM13 watch the shows that I absolutely love like the Gremlins TV series,The Goosebumps TV series (both original and reboot),the Chucky TV series,Cyberpunk: Edgerunners,Captain Laserhawk,BNA: Brand New Animal,South Park,Rick and Morty,Monsters at Work,Hazbin Hotel,Helluva Boss,Hailey's on it,and Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur
Hey GamingMagic13, I don't know if you remember me but I'm that guy who started watching The Owl House because of your audio commentary about a year ago or so. I finished watching your video a few days ago, and I just wanted to thank you again for making this type of content. I will continue supporting you and I look forward to your next projects!
I understand that this video probably started a bit ago, but I think I speak for most of the community to say that getting this kind of HUGE content about our favorite show even a year after it's ended is so lovely to see (especially when it's 8 hours of pure bliss, going straight into my comfort list). I'm really looking forward working through this video in a few days, and even though I haven't finished it, AMAZING work and dedication, well freaking done!
Gus always came off as being Autistic coded. Struggling with socializing (including ready social cues and changes in mannerisms)? Hyper-fixation on something? More willing to be open/blunt (including about one’s own emotions)? Definitely builds an argument that he’s on the Autism spectrum. Granted, this is just speculation from someone that’s Autistic himself. This is why I’m saying he could be Autistic coded. Maybe he’s not explicitly Autistic or intended to be. But he’s someone Autistic people can relate to and see themselves in ❤️
i just want to appreciate that your "prolog" was exactly 8:14 minutes, so when you start talking about it, it's an exact 8 hour video. Also, the cuts and scenes you put in this video so far are just PERFECT every sentence. I found your channel just now, but you already earned another subscriber. Now i have to think of a way to make my boyfriend watch this show with me 😂
Aw, wow! You really showed me how everything worked together in the end to make the story a whole in a way that even working on the show I didn't realize! Thank you for this incredible feat of an analysis video; as a crew member, I'm just so honored the work of the crew has meant so much to so many.
6:52:09 Don't forget that dana confirmed that thethirdbill was correct about hooty, but she didn't say what specifically he was right about lol. the general fan assumption is that it was about his hooty hole theory video
the fact that you managed to avoid fucking ALL of the discourse and theories online-- ESPECIALLY the fandom collectively squealing over lumity-- is utter insanity. i literally got interested in the show because i heard it had wlw representation. the planets and stars had to have aligned in the most impossible of ways for you to hod have heard anything about it. i am genuinely impressed.
tbf it isnt as hard as it seems when you dont engage with said media. it worked for me with AoT. Didnt catch on until s4 came out and i managed to avoid all spoilers, theories, and buzz around it somehow
I really do love listening to your meticulous, detailed analysis of media. Your Toy Story 4 video was how I found your channel. Calling your content underrated is an insane understatement. Keep doing what you love, you're amazing at it.
Excellent, if exceedingly long, video! You mentioned Luz giving Belos the light glyph a few times, something interesting is that Belos never used it past testing it for himself in the cave. None of Belo's glyph combos use the light glyph, and it's not part of his arm tattoos. Luz showing him the glyph made absolutely no difference, it was just something she could baselessly blame on herself.
The owl house, what hasn't say, it's beautiful, it's a story masterpiece. It's heart loving show with characters that anyone can relate, understand and just made us love this show. It me personally understood luz when I loose, a family member. And how sometimes, forget about the walls between walls of reality and fiction. Or how Eda's curse made relate and understood my disability even more. I can't describe my love of how this show made me love cartoons, after steven universe ended. Even luz is the must relatable character, can understood why the actions she made. Because I would made. Some I already had. And hearing disney cancel it, just broke my heart, because a show that made never made more happier espically during covid and freshman high-school any other show. This show couldn't never be replaced how disney tries. Thank you Owl house
I think this is the longest youtube video I've ever watched clear through. Anyway, anyone who spends several hours talking about the owl house is worth an immediate follow.
Yeah, I had to watch this video again Such a phenomenal video, even if I still don’t feel as highly about The Owl House as you do I will continue watching these analysis videos while dreaming that I can still be a part of them in the future HOOT HOOT!
This video means absolutely everything to me, this show brought me into the light when I stumbled across it last year!! 😭😭😭😭😭 thank you so much for making this beautiful video
I love this video so much thank you for making this, the Owl House is by far my favorite piece of media ever, it has helped me through so much and through such hard times in my life, and I love it with all my heart. As someone who has dissected it as much as I have, seeing someone praise and talk about it for 8 HOURS is so gratifying and cool. You pointed out stuff that made me actually scream when I realized I never noticed, like Luz and Kings matching scars on their eyebrows, or the previous golden guard deaths. I can't thank you enough for making this video, it was such a fun watch :)
This made me remember how much I loved The Owl House. This not only made me love it more than before, but has impacted me personally way more than I thought it would. Those segments about Gus and Luz almost made me cry. GamingMagic13, your videos are magnificent.
They actually used all the homophobic buzzwords Christian Parents use to describe LGBTQ+ relationships in the international version. OMG, my day just got a whole lot better because I get to laugh my ass off at the Taiwanese version of The Owl House saying that Luz and Amity are "Dressing Up and Traveling Together"-friends. I've just been sent over the moon thanks to your segment covering that.😂🤣🤣
What you said about Hunter not being present for the final battle against Belos really resonated with me as a victim of familial abuse. Thank you, Trevor.
this may be mentioned later but with luzs fight with eda its important to remember its not just all of the guilt pushing her to sacrifice herself its also the fact that another mother is sending her away for her shes under all this guilt and just as it hits its boiling point eda in her mind basically sends her to the reality check summer camp
The Owl House is written by fans of the genre, fans of animation, people deep into fandoms and into critics of shows. But they are also professional writers, people who know what they are doing and are able to make everything come together in some way. They have the best qualities of both aspects and that created a show that can be enjoyed by the general public, by critics, and by chronically online people. I also relate to Luz on a personal level. I would do the same things if I was in her position. I relate to her bubbly, weirdo side, as well as her trauma ridden, self hating side. Glad to know you and I are similar. I would suggest thinking about getting an autism or ADHD test if you haven’t already, but you don’t need to if you don’t want to. Thank you for giving a love piece on one of my favourite shows and something I have connected to on a deep level. Bonus: All I remember of Kikimiki- I mean Kikimora, is that she’s voiced by the same person that voices Tikki in Miraculous Ladybug
I was drinking water and then at 1:08:32 "I'M TALKING ABOUT LOGISITCS OF HOOTY PUTTING ON A FUCKING SUNSCREEN". I almost died. 0 regrets. 10/10. 7 hours left to go :D
Another thing about the sleep spell regarding eda's battles against lilith: Lilith is a powerful witch, not a magicless demon. The sleep spell is shown explicitly to not only be slow in its casting, but also in its travel. Lilith would have had no trouble simply blocking the sleep spell with a shield.
it took me a couple days to watch this video all the way through, mainly due to its length and my adhd lol, but GOD is this one of the monoliths of analysis content on YT i’ve seen this show a billion times over, and even i’ve come away from this 8 hour behemoth of a video with a fresh perspective and knowledge that even i didn’t know! it goes to show the sheer level of dedication put towards the video, one of which i hope gets thoroughly noticed amidst the algorithm. the clips matching up to nearly every word in the script is just shocking, in a good way lol, like, i cant even imagine the sheer amount of time which was put into delicately picking clips from every episode for a simple phrase this is one of those videos that defines a specific subset of youtube videos, seeing you so excited and happy about something in the same way i am is always a joy, but seeing how high quality this content is, makes appreciate this even more tl:dr great! hoot hoot
1:35:24 THE MUSIC THAT PLAYS IN HUNTING PALISMEN WHEN LUZ & THE PALISMEN ARE GETTING TAKEN BY HUNTER. it's such an excellent piece for no reason like oh my god. (also i forgot to mention it in my one piece comment but Everything you've praised abt the music here is present in op too. even with more magnitude and impact considering the scale of the show
As someone who's special interest in cartoons, mainly TOH, ty for this video. Currently at the Lunity writing segment. I love TOH and your analysis of Luz is refreshing, a lot of people trash on her, even though she is my favorite character and the one i relate most to. Love your videos and fuck the mouse
I watched this video in one go. As a video essay enthusiast, this video hit the sweet spot for my preferred video essay length, and didn't overstay its welcome even by a single second. I cannot praise this video, and you yourself, enough for putting in the actually monumental effort it takes to make insanely long videos like this, and actually follow through. The Owl House is my personal favourite piece of media in general, and I cannot overstate how much I love it, and despite its flaws few and far between as they realistically are, consider it a masterpiece of writing, animation, and storytelling. I had this video up on my other monitor as I chipped away at an extremely time-consuming and long-running passion project of my own, and I actually got it completely finished at around the 6-hour mark. Thank you for making this video, GM13. And thank you FG for mentioning TOH so that GM13 would make this video in the first place. I'll definitely be sticking around and watching more of your stuff, as I absolutely adore how well-written and narrated this video is. I only recently watched TOH, so you're not alone as someone who had basically dodged all of the hype about it each time a new episode aired !! Maybe it's time that I actually try making my own video essays. I've been pretty inspired lately by the likes of not only you, but also the extremely thorough reviews by ExoParadigmGamer. Once again, thank you for making this video, it was an absolute treat to listen to and watch.
The Owl House is definitely a show that deserves way more recognition and praise. I haven't finished watching this video yet, but I appreciate the hard work you must have gone through to edit and record this behemoth, while getting the video through Yt's copyrighting. Gonna finish the video in my own time, but thanks again for the analysis!
I just finished watching the entire show. I loved everything about this show and I cried on multiple occasions for different reasons. I can't wait to watch this video so you can explain how beautiful this show is. Ps: I love your work, man.
This show is genuinely fantastic. Thank you for making this video, I hope the people behind it end up seeing this, I’m sure they would really appreciate it. This show will stick with me for a very long time. Thank you Dana Terrace, And your crew for bringing this piece of beautiful fiction to life.
I relate to King on such a deep level especially after how you explained his character in this love letter. Struggling to be taken seriously despite there being more qualities to you besides just being childish or "cute" I'm sure is something a lot of people can relate to. It's heartbreaking when loved ones overlook your input purely because of this perceived incapability, like when Luz favored Eda's forced magic lessons over King *wanting* to teach her about demons despite it being just as important as any magic spell (at least in my eyes). Your section on King highlighted everything I adore about his character and how I need to rewatch this show IMMEDIATELY. Thank you GamingMagic I love the detail and passion you put into these projects never stop speaking your truth about your beloved medias this and many of your other projects will always be worth the wait!!
This is one of if not the best RUclips videos I've ever seen. Thank you for making this masterpiece and you have made me want to rebinge the whole series again
The owl house as a series has influenced allot of what kind of people I want in my life both friends and lover, seeing this wonderful love letter helped me as well adore this series more then before getting to re watching all of this series from a full pov and appreciate it even more now years later after it came out. These long videos also is a godsend it’s just awesome to get videos of full breakdowns like this, which makes me more excited for other videos to come either similar to this or over it. Owl house is a piece of media that I hope for future generations will grow up with and learn and internalise cause having this in once life any age any time in once life is such a nice thing to have and does not insult once intelligence ❤❤❤❤
Wooooow I had a cameo in this video!!! What a great video, I definitely think the same about The Owl House and everything It represents. h Having started a toh blog and talking to dubbing people and more was something I will never forget, as well as the interview with Rebecca Rose. Regardless of the language or the country, The Owl House changed our lives and the way we watch animated series today....
I have watched many analysis videos on many different topics over the years, from games, movies, shows, etc. Yet I've found none quite as passionate as yours. The amount of love and effort poured into them, whether it be tearing Toy Story 4 a new one, or praising a game like Dragon's Lair 3D to high heavens, make them simply a joy to watch over and over. I've certainly watched many of them multiple times since finding your channel over a year ago. For a while now I've had a slight interest in The Owl House, but never really got to watching it. I'd seen clips before, and watched season 3 on RUclips even though I didn't have full context of the show. This analysis however, has made me want to go watch through the whole thing. Of course, I now know a lot of the plot points because of this video, but I still think it'll be a great watch-through. It's somewhat inspiring to see you explain your love, or other times distaste, of certain media. I have my own interests that I'd love to explain to the world. Two games in particular: Xenoblade Chronicles 2, which is notoriously a divisive title in the franchise, yet despite its admittedly big flaws, is still a game with a world and story that none other have managed to captivate me so strongly. Not to mention a gorgeous and also emotional soundtrack. The other being Wandersong, an indie game that I've not seen many people talk about, which is a shame since it released in 2018. A beautiful story of trying to be a hero, despite being constantly told you are not the hero. (and something is done masterfully with the "Hero's Theme") I want to express my love about these two games, as well as others, by making my own videos about them someday. I may have no experience with content creation, but it's something I've always been interested in, and your analysis videos really tempt me to dip my toes into it and learn. I also want to say that the commentaries are an extremely fun time to watch. Your laugh is absolutely infectious and never ceases to have me cackle alongside you, particularly at 8:09:57. I hope this doesn't come off as if I'm praising you like a god amongst other creators, putting you on a pedestal above all others, but I wanted to just state that the passion you have, and the effort you go through for your videos are noticed and very much appreciated. So thank you Trevor "GamingMagic13", and also thanks to the whole commentary squad for their continued support of your content.
I think comparatively Stan and Ford from Gravity Falls did the sibling rivalry thing a bit better, and Stan giving up everything was a much better payoff than Lilith sharing Eda's curse. The difference being here, Stan was motivated by jealousy and fear, a fear of losing his best friend in his brother. That's understandable. Lilith on the other hand, from how I interpreted it, was motivated entirely by jealousy. Both Lilith and Eda were all about the Witch's Coven; they both shared the same goal, so the differential factor was on Lilith's interpretation of what that meant. It was personal. Eda knew the stakes too, but didn't let the idea of winning give her any motivation to harm her sister. I also feel like getting to sit with Stan before meeting Ford served much better for their eventual meeting over having Lilith and Eda interact. I was almost certain that Lilith was the culprit just from their interactions, it gave a lot away I felt. I just couldn't sympathize with her; it felt like to me her motivations weren't to make Eda better, but to make herself feel better. She wanted to correct her mistake because "she" felt bad about it. It was like what an episode between her being an adversary to her being a part of the crew? Imagine if your sibling purposely maimed you in someway to win a competition. I know I'd feel betrayed for life; instantly leave my presence I don't want to hear from you again vibes. I wholeheartedly think she was forgiven way too easily.
nah if my sibiling took half of my curse and i can mess with them now, its all kosher. i already have years coping with it, now i can rag on them about it
Somehow I don’t think 8 hours was long enough to show the love and appreciation I have for this show. I think Luz said it best in the finale “it had helped me find my place when I had no other way. In my heart I’ll never forget it”
(I just want to say this somewhere and I’m choosing here) I like how with the first Lumity kiss the animation becomes smooth, like it does with the most important moments in the show. But with the second, the animation stays the same as it is in the non-important moments. I think of this as being a gesture to how meaningful and important their kiss in “clouds on the horizon” is in contrast to the second kiss, which is more of an instinct thing (I think)
Despite the fact that Disney (being homophobic disgusting company it is), cancelled the show, I really hope that Dana Terrance and the whole crew are aware of how life changing TheOwlHouse was for so many people. Luz Noceda is for me, what Azula was for her. She became my biggest comfort character, (she is even the reason I've discovered I'm Neurodivergent, which explains A LOT). Thank you Dana. The show might've ended, but the light glyph on my tattoo will always be a part of me, same as the memories
This video showed up in my youtube reccomended this morning. While I was immediately intrigued by the title and ESPECIALLY by the 8 hour runtime, I figured I'd probably end up listening to it while I'm drawing later... Thaaat didn't happen. Safe to say, this is one of the best videos I've seen on ToH in my life. And while I, unfortunately didn't have time to watch every segment and ended up skipping to certain ones after the first few (although I'll probably end up watching them later at some point), this was amazing. You talked about and elaborated on each and every point so perfectly. You show such a deep, legitimate understanding of the show's themes and ideas. You countered so many critisisms that people have had with it all so logically and well. I'm genuinely bewildered. The idea of someone having put all this time, effort, and thought into something like this is beyond me. Let alone managing to put it all into word so well... I could go more into it but I'd just end up repeating myself. The only thing I'll say is that I really appreciate how you talked about the Collector. As someone who's been incredibly attached to and obsessed with their character since Hollow Mind (and as a die-hard defender of them since O Titan Where Art Thou, lol), it means a lot to me. The fact that you were able to explain his character so simply yet so thoroughly is wonderful. It still honestly kinda shocks me how long it took so many people the LITERAL ENTIRETY OF SEASON 3 TO AIR in order to understand the point of his character and addition to the series. Hearing someone explain how and why they work so well as the story's final antigonist despite being included in such a hurry after the cancellation, is so satisfying. As silly as it sounds given how the video goes through EVERYTHING about the show, it's really comforting seeing the Collector be given as much attention and spotlight in analytical content as other characters. Despite certain issues I myself have with the ending that they gave them in W&D (as in, only getting a split moment to send off their character, him leaving on his own without anybody really caring that much about it, and the fact that we never see them again, and how kinda unfair and contradictory to his entire character that feels to me...), I absolutely loved hearing about him again. Over the past year I've gradually kinda faded out of my avid passion for ToH, so getting this in my recommended a year after the series finale felt nice! Thank you so much for making this ^^ Oh! And one last question... Did you get any sleep while you were working on this?
I dont even really know what to say for this video tbh. Thanks for making me cry all over again ig? But seriously, i haven't quite found a show like TOH since it ended. It truly is something special, and this video only put into words what ive been trying to for awhile now.
So great to see you make this video. I love The Owl House too! It's such a funny, creative, and heartfelt show, and I will always be thankful for its existence!
Took me three days to finish, but I thoroughly enjoyed this video. I don't normally comment on videos, but I have not seen this level of passion for a video in a long time. You did what Disney couldn't do, and did The Owl House justice with your analysis and I hope that others can discover The Owl House through this video. I know it made me want to binge the show for the 5th time since the series final. This truly was a love letter to such an amazing and impactful show. Thank you for creating this
This series is amazing and I love it, one of the absolute greatest things from modern disney period. When people say that Disney's magic is gone, shows like this shows that there is still some sense of magic left from this company.
Dude im doing my makeup rn I can't be getting this emotional 😭 I always loved this show but this has given me a new found appreciation for it. Thank you
After two weeks of chunking away at this video in sections, I’ve finally completed watching this video. Thank you so much for all of the hard work and effort you put into it! There was so much that you brought to my attention that I didn’t notice on either of my two watch throughs of the series. It really increased my appreciation for the series and the team that created it. This definitely feels like mandatory supplemental material for anyone who loves the series and wants one last summary of the project.
This is by far the longest youtube video I've watched, it took me 9 days, but I'm glad I finished. Thank you for covering such an amazing show for me and many others, I cannot express how much this show changed me, it's a beautiful thing to see.
Wow, this is incredible. You pointed out so many things I haven’t noticed and have inspired me to do a rewatch. I only found the owl house this year but it means more to me than anything I’ve ever been a fan of before. Thank you for this video!
“A poor man’s version of Amphibia?!” Excuse me?! While I do like Amphibia better I still love the owl house and its not an imitation of Amphibia AT ALL. It’s a show that stands all on its own and both are great shows…
Aghhhh I was absolutely OVERJOYED at coming across an 8 hour long video on this show!!!! Thank you so much for all the hard work on this, it warms my heart to see other people just as passionate about TOH as I am🫶 Your commentary was so insightful and even as a huge fan I learned so many new things due to your analysis, that just makes me appreciate TOH even more than I thought I could!!! The video flew by despite being probably the longest video I’ve ever watched LOL because I was just so invested in what you had to say!!!! The Owl House is truly a one in a lifetime type of cartoon and even though I’ve watched some other really amazing ones, I don’t think any will ever beat this series for me💓 It’s just everything I could ever ask for in a cartoon I’m so grateful I got to experience it along with so many other people💘
Banger video, in depth breakdowns like this just make me adore the sheer creativity and skill the team behind this show had to do due to Disney's cancelling of the show, easily one of my favorite videos you've done and one of my favorite videos in the context of explaining how to do good writing (or just a really good example of such) I've seen in a while, good job, dude!
After months of fighting RUclips's copyright system and facing a horde of other technical difficulties, "A Love Letter to The Owl House" is **finally** completed and released. I can't promise that Disney won't try to claim this again at some point, but know that if they do I will just appeal it once more and you'll see it pop up again soon enough.
Thank you all for your patience over the last half year. I hope I've made it worth your while, and I really hope you enjoy this eight-hour behemoth I've put together. It is the equivalent of my Toy Story 4 analysis in the complete opposite direction, in that I poured every ounce of passion, heart, and soul I have in my body into this video. After a certain amount of time spent being too close to a particular project of yours, you start to hate because of how much time you spend stressing over every minor detail. But even through it all, I think I managed to communicate that passion to the best of my ability in this video, and I don't think I'll ever be able to make something of this scale with this level of intensely specific and pedantic care for the rest of my life.
Maybe this'll never break 100K views. Hell, maybe it'll never even come close to reaching _50_K views. But this has been a labor of love in every sense of the phrase, and that's all I need to be content with what I've created. Just like how my Dragon's Lair 3D praise video still hasn't broken 20K views, but it will still always be one of my proudest videos.
Out of every creative project I have ever been a part of throughout my life, absolutely nothing has come close to the levels of stress that A Love Letter to The Owl House put me through; I talk about this more extensively in the video itself, but basically every step of the production of this video was an absolute nightmare for one reason for another.
Except, I suppose, the initial script writing process where I poured out every ounce of passion I had.
Because if it wasn't already clear, I adore this show with all my heart in a way I haven't felt towards anything in a long time.
And I hope that, after everything, you can feel that passion when you watch this.
People talk about your 6 hour rant
Well let them learn about an 8 hour love letter
I'm still going to bet that it'll reach 100K views :D
Yoooo I'm so happy man, a true masterpiece
Please🙏 can you & your friend react to Steven universe the movie⭐️💎🎥 that will be cool okay bye💖✌️

there was a hunter analysis video i watched that pointed out that since belos had Hunter marked with a coven sigil it showed that he never actually expected hunter to succeed since he had already basically damned him to die once his plan was underway. he had no intention of bringing hunter with him and it was just another one of his lies
Also the fact that when he meets Luz and Eda, Belos has sent him to retrieve Selkie domus scales. As we see in that one book, it's an ingredient required for the making of grimwalkers. He was probably gonna start fresh with a new golden guard in the human world, one that wouldn't be "influenced by the treachery of witches." He would finally have his perfect brother that turned out "normal" and loyal to him.
i just wanna rant how cool hunter was with his mask besdies it being a act with him playing and being care and the mask is very cool i wish there was a character like this
I don't remember you mentioning it but I wanted to point out probably my favourite Eda moment. It's after Luz dies and King goes berserker mode, before attacking she scoots the Collector out of the way. Like, here she is, she just lost her daughter and is on the cusp of being swallowed up by more rage and grief than she's ever felt before, and her first instinct is still to make sure they're safe.
It's a moment that perfectly encapsulates Eda's character.
Yes!! I love that moment. Gives me chills Everytime I watch it!!
Fun fact, I actually got to meet the voice of Principal Bump himself Bumper Robinson last year, and I even got his autograph.
No way, that's so cool!
Oh that’s cool, good for you :)
yoo they are both called bump
Going to be working my way through the whole video, but thank you so much for making this! I can’t even begin to imagine the amount of work, time, and effort that went into an 8 hour in depth analysis on the show. So happy that you found it and that it brought you some joy. Thanks for watching!
Holy titan this completely made my day; I was not expecting anyone who worked on the show to _ever_ see this video
Thank you for checking out my video, and thank you and the entire team from the bottom of my heart for bringing this show to the world :)

@@GamingMagic13 The crew loves this show and we know we got to make something special. Seeing videos like this just solidifies that feeling even more when we get to hear how much The Owl House means to people and how great fans of the show are.

1:08:44 THANK. YOU!!! I was so mad when people were complaining about Hootie not diagnosing King with having titan’s blood. Like… He literally said he was testing for demon’s blood and that they were inconclusive.
It’s like if you have a sore throat and go to the doctors. They test for things like strep and c-vid. What if the tests come back negative? Does that mean you’re not sick? Of course not! I just means they have to test for something else because the tests they conducted were for certain viruses.
And this is why The Owl House is way better then Harry Potter
Definitely
The little Disney jokes are EVERYTHING
hunter being humanized “for the first time in forever”
Ed’s getting “a surprise tool that’ll help her later”
Glad I’m not the only one who noticed the mystery tool joke
YES.
8 hours long, absolute perfection.
Good luck with the Twitter folk complaining about this one somehow, they always find a way.
Not hard for them, they have a knack for being annoying losers.
We already know what their problem will be...
"Whaa video too long! This guy's definitely just repeating himself and yapping useless stuff for the sake of making the video longer!"
And to that there's only one good response:

How tf would they be complaining about it? Don’t those twitter losers love the owl house to?
@@George_Fl0yd there’s always someone
@@ColorlessRonin ohhh I get it now, it’s those ones that always find something to complain even tho they’d actually love this video if it wasn’t 8 hours?
"Please watch the show before you watch this video" bold of you to assume there are many people that would watch an 8 hour analysis about a show they haven't seen yet. On the other hand I just watched an analysis about the ending of how I met your mother, despite not having seen a single episode, so you got me there.
I loved your "This will be talked about in 3 hours" comment which made me realize how long this video actually is
And man, I wish I could experience this show for the first time again.
My dad's former coworker/family friend came out to us as gay a few years back. I remember discussing with him how he feels about being gay and his feelings about pride parades and pride month. He honestly said that he doesn't like it and just wants to feel normal and accepted like everyone else. There doesn't need to be a big song and dance about him being gay, he doesn't want to be celebrated for being gay and he doesn't want being gay to be a big deal. He just wants to feel normal and left alone. I feel like the Owl House does an amazing job at having representation feel normal without shoehorning it in, having it make no sense or calling attention to it just to get LGBT+ brownie points. I feel like nowadays there's a growing group of people in the LGBT+ community that just want to be seen as normal and don't want to be pointed out or used for brownie points
Im a gay man, and me personally I really like pride parades and things like that, I grew up in a space where being queer was either portrayed as disgusting or completely ignored, so seeing it being portrayed as something to be celebrated and something thats beautiful, is really healing. But I completely understand his desire to have it be completely normalized, not something to point out as out of the ordinary
i can see both sides of why a person would and wouldnt like pride month. those who have felt shunned and quieted love feeling supported by those like them, while people who grew up being bullied for being gay or even slightly more feminine/masculine would like to just be treated like the norm.
@@Good_luck_. that does bring the interesting topic of normalizaton vs celebration tho
Pride isn't really a celebration of "someone is gay" tho. It's a celebration of the stonewall riots and the fact that we have the rights to say that out loud now, thanks to all the people who fought for us.
Something I find fun about Belos is that, while he is a scarily competent manipulator and a physically imposing threat second only to the Collector, he also never stopped being a kid who was playing at being a witch-hunter. He keeps clinging onto his fantasies from childhood and you can tell he's having fun whenever he gets into a fight, using the magic powers he should be by all rights be despising with clear joy. He's stuck in the past in all respects, never able to mature beyond the point his brother abandoned him for the isles. It's why his Inner Belos him as a child, as thats all hes ever been. Once he consciously takes it over via rune-magic he morphs into adult-body, but as we can see from his further shapeshifting this is not because he was tricking them before with a false visage but because his magic allows him to freely mold his mental projection however he wants.

@@SonicPlayer2004 Yeah ik
The fact that this is even longer than the Toy Story 4 videos, and of praise instead. Grabbing my popcorn for this one.
And we know how much toy story 4 affected him, so to make an even longer video, its because he has things to say.
39:17 also i'd say that Flap being able to bring Hunter back like that doubly makes sense when you take into account that palisman magic comes from them being made out of palistrom wood, and grimwalkers are also partially made out of palistrom wood, and 'powered by magic' in general! just given that the way Belos snorts them up and the way Flap's magic absorbs into Hunter looks and seems a bit different, I think that may account for the difference and all.
The Owl House was so incredibly special to me. It reached into the life of a lonely, closeted, autistic kid and told me that I would find my people. I held it so close to my heart. But as I grew and matured and did find those friends it promised, I started to grow away from the fandom. This reminded me why I loved this show. The passion you put into your videos has always been really meaningful to me, but this means more than anything. Thanks.
Thank you for pointing out the stupid criticisms thrown toward Hunter. He’s a great character and there’s a reason why he’s so beloved by fans. As for said criticisms,….I think I know exactly who you’re referring to when judging them.
I won’t give names but it rhymes with Wily and Torchid😒
Oh yeah! I heard of her. It’s a good thing I never watch her videos. Her takes are truly idiotic.
Of course that's who it was. :(
Yep!😒
why can i never escape that woman
70 thousand views is absolutely criminal for an 8 hour video, you deserve way way more for such a massive culmination of time and effort. Ill be watching this over the next week and sending it to everybody i know. Just reading the timestamps already lets me know this is an incredibly in depth video. Honestly this is the kind of effort youd hope to see in creators with millions of subscribers, heres to hoping you get there soon
If I didn’t know any better I’d say it’s impressive that 70,000 (now 81,000) people were willing to watch an 8 hour video in it’s entirety, but that’s now how RUclips views work so there you go

It's so weird how linked to my life The Owl House has been...
When I first saw it, it was right at the end of 2020, I'd just lost my closest friend to conflicts that stemmed from both our traumas. A school friend was bringing me to a late pride walk that just so happened to be the day next to my birthday, and would also lead me to meet the rest of their queer friends. Said friends quickly told me one thing, that I HAD to watch TOH by the time the pride walk happened or else (/hj). So I did.
Every day, every morning, before a school I'd drop out of a few months later, I'd watch one or two episodes... There was only season one at the time, and I don't remember a lot besides that it was really good.. I'm a die hard Gravity Falls fan and TOH very much had the same amount of love and quality put into it.
Life went on tho, the pride walk turned into a simple meeting as the pride event itself was canceled, the school friend that bought me there gave me the only kiss I ever instantly regretted of my life so far. The group they had introduced me to was nice to hangout with, but as I got back with my closest friend I drifted away from them.
We're now in mid 2022, me and my closest friend are back together, it's summer, and I'm pretty sure we just got off a rewatch of Gravity Falls together when I remember, "Hey Lynette, you wanna watch The Owl House?"
Once again, the series wasn't done yet, and as Season 2 comes to an end and we're both watching with bated breath, completely thrown around by the twists and turns and just how good the series Still Is. I still vividly remember us theorizing about how they would handle the Collector, as I'm staring into the ceiling, the room is warm and we're both talking about how much dangerous they are being just a child... A few months later she and I would have our final conflict. I was scared about our future. She felt tied down by me, and abandoned me without a word. completely wrecking me with trust and abandonment issues i still suffer from.
But that friend group I met at the pride walk, they were still here. They had also changed as some people had left, and new people were there too, but they happily welcomed me back.
One fateful day, we're all in voice call, and one of them says "Are you all still good with meeting for the TOH premiere?"
They had all still been talking about it since they were big fans, so I knew Thanks to Them was airing soon, but I didn't know they were meeting up to watch it together, to which I immediately perked up and said "can I . come?"
So here I was. For the first time taking the train on my own, little soon to be 18 y/o me, socially anxious to death, leaving my home all alone to meet people for the second time ever all to see a cartoon. And we all screamed and cried and sat next to each other, sharing snacks and having fun.
It became a thing, For the Future aired and we were all together, watching it... We'd also just meet for random things, we met to see the Mario Movie, to laugh at the Miraculous movie, and sometimes we met just to met. They were the first friends I'd ever been so close to after losing who used to be my closest friend. One of the people in this group I later started dating, and even tho my trauma makes it hard to manage properly, I wouldn't change our relationship for anything else :)
I remember when Watching and Dreaming aired. We had watched all the other episodes in Season 3 beforehand, I baked marshmallows for everyone to stress eat in front of the new one... I remember crying so hard at the ending that I didn't even see that Arin Hanson was voicing Papa Titan... All I remember is seeing Darius and Hunter reunite and then melting into tears for the next few hours... My therapist notes this might just be because of my feelings of wanting to belong, and be loved by a parental figure like Hunter was.
I introduced the group to Lego Monkie Kid, which is one of my favorite shows of all time, altho having been one of the other last things ever seen with my ex-closest friend, I had never finished watching the last season, and wanted to introduce them to it to all watch it together... I also saw Amphibia after seeing TOH's ending, it was under the veil of having caught a pretty bad Flu thing (I can't remember if it was the C or not) but I still enjoyed it so much, and thanked the group for introducing me to so many good cartoons
It had been going well, altho me starting to date my boyfriend had caused a bit of movement in the group (He was already dating someone in it that was pretty toxic and did not like the prospect of him "cheating" on them with me) I was happy. I had friends. I had someone to love.
Until they all turned on me (except my boyfriend of course that has stood besides me ever since), a few weeks after my 19th birthday, they all just turned on me. Called me disgusting words, told me I deserved to suffer from ab*sive parents, from my loneliness, from my trauma, from the physical pain I was going thru trying to diagnose what is wrong with my body.
and now here I am. I haven't ever had the heart to rewatch TOH in its entirety ever since. I've rewatched Gravity Falls no problem... But this one. It's hard. How much it reminds me of friends I thought I had. People I lost that just lied to me. Of being happy and blissfully unaware. Of the girl who'd call me her sibling, then turn around to wish for me to die alone, asking if I'm ok, because I'm silently sobbing at the epilogue. Of watching my boyfriend with his ab*sive then partner, acting fakely happy when he himself told me he felt forced into the relationship. Of my old closest friend. the girl I owe my life to. and how she threw me away without a care in the world, not even a goodbye, not a sorry, nothing.
I can't ever stop me from crying at Gravity Falls' ending for obvious reasons, but TOH. I don't think I can stop myself from crying at any sign of its presence, at any song from it, any heartwarming scene we'd laugh or coo at, at remembering what She or He said at that scene, how we'd all bundle up on the bed, or the couch, finding a way to all sit together properly without anyone being left out. Passing food along especially for that one person in the group that would stress eat in front of the show's twists, they'd later be the one to find my suffering "satisfying" in their own words.
I wish i could enjoy the show like I do Gravity falls... As a masterpiece I'm proud of having introduced many people to... A show I come back to watch when times are hard, or just when I'm bored... Something I remember both watching with close people but also that was just playing in the background while I was playing Pokémon once. But it really had to engrain itself in the hardest part(s) of my life.
This video is honestly amazing, there is some liiiiittle things I wish you'd have bought up, but I think they might just be things I saw being talked about very loudly in my slice of the fandom and as such it feels weird to not hear them bought up here, like for example the very popular ship of Gus/Mattholomule not having been even hinted at in the epilogue
it all makes me wish. i could see the show like you do. a masterpiece your friends introduced you to :)
Thank you for sharing your story. I read through it all and i feel very bad for the stuff you've dealt with. Hoping for a brighter future for you! Also great to see another monkie kid enjoyer, such a good show!
wow i cant believe i read that whole thing but your story seriously brought me to tears, i hope youre doing well
I watched the whole video, and yes, the 8 hours was necessary to say how good this show is
I’m glad you finally made it though RUclips’s copyright, The Owl House is one of Disney’s underrated shows they made, I just love the characters, animation, and storytelling, I love the reactions between Luz, Eda, King and Hooty it truly does not deserve to be cancelled and I’m so happy it deserves it’s praises and loves. Hopefully it’ll get so much attention it deserves.
If you love this show, I promise that you’re 99.9% likely to also like Gravity Falls, Amphibia, and DuckTales 2017.
A lot of the same people who worked on this show worked on them, and I watched all episodes of those shows and they’re right up there with TOH for my top favorite shows.
Edit: Oh wait nevermind you’ve said so far that you’ve seen those Amphibia and GF. But I still reccomened DuckTales 2017.
I've seen both Gravity Falls and Amphibia to completion, and I'm currently in the middle of checking out Ducktales 2017 for the first time. Among many other things, The Owl House reignited my passion for discovering animated shows
@@GamingMagic13Cool. I also have a few other recommendations, those ones were just my top favorites.
The Ghost and Molly McGee, Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts, Hilda, The Amazing World of Gumball, My Life As A Teenage Robot, The Fairly OddParents.
Not all of those are big epic stories you need to watch every episode of to get it, some of them are just funny episodic shows. But they’re all great.
@@JaceAVinson hey did you think GM13 will like the goosebumps tv series (both the 90's and the reboot),the Chucky tv series,and the Ted TV series?
@@GamingMagic13 I hope you get a chance to watch South Park,Hazbin hotel,helluva boss,Rick and Morty,Monsters at Work,The Chucky TV Series,The Ted TV series,The Goosebumps TV series (both the original and reboot),Hailey's on it,Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur,and Cyberpunk: Edgerunners,BNA: Brand New Animal,And Captain Laserhawk someday
I hope GM13 watch the shows that I absolutely love like the Gremlins TV series,The Goosebumps TV series (both original and reboot),the Chucky TV series,Cyberpunk: Edgerunners,Captain Laserhawk,BNA: Brand New Animal,South Park,Rick and Morty,Monsters at Work,Hazbin Hotel,Helluva Boss,Hailey's on it,and Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur
Hey GamingMagic13, I don't know if you remember me but I'm that guy who started watching The Owl House because of your audio commentary about a year ago or so. I finished watching your video a few days ago, and I just wanted to thank you again for making this type of content. I will continue supporting you and I look forward to your next projects!
I understand that this video probably started a bit ago, but I think I speak for most of the community to say that getting this kind of HUGE content about our favorite show even a year after it's ended is so lovely to see (especially when it's 8 hours of pure bliss, going straight into my comfort list). I'm really looking forward working through this video in a few days, and even though I haven't finished it, AMAZING work and dedication, well freaking done!
Gus always came off as being Autistic coded. Struggling with socializing (including ready social cues and changes in mannerisms)? Hyper-fixation on something? More willing to be open/blunt (including about one’s own emotions)? Definitely builds an argument that he’s on the Autism spectrum.
Granted, this is just speculation from someone that’s Autistic himself. This is why I’m saying he could be Autistic coded. Maybe he’s not explicitly Autistic or intended to be. But he’s someone Autistic people can relate to and see themselves in ❤️
i just want to appreciate that your "prolog" was exactly 8:14 minutes, so when you start talking about it, it's an exact 8 hour video.
Also, the cuts and scenes you put in this video so far are just PERFECT every sentence.
I found your channel just now, but you already earned another subscriber.
Now i have to think of a way to make my boyfriend watch this show with me 😂
Aw, wow! You really showed me how everything worked together in the end to make the story a whole in a way that even working on the show I didn't realize! Thank you for this incredible feat of an analysis video; as a crew member, I'm just so honored the work of the crew has meant so much to so many.
I'm honored to read messages and comments from crew members who found my video! Thank you so much for helping bring this show to life!
@@GamingMagic13 I’m so lucky it came across my feed!
Disney's logic about their so-called "brand" is about as confusing and idiotic as Warner-Discovery's recent vendetta against the animation industry
I'm still so pissed we never got the quinceanera episode. S3 really needed more time to just breathe, something more than hunter dying in ep 1
6:52:09 Don't forget that dana confirmed that thethirdbill was correct about hooty, but she didn't say what specifically he was right about lol. the general fan assumption is that it was about his hooty hole theory video
8 hours of content
HOLY SHIT
Not to add the MONTHS of fighting copyright system
Bro's dedicated.
40 minutes in, it feels like I’ve been watching a 20 minute video
How do you do this, I am so happy there are over 7 hours left of the video
the fact that you managed to avoid fucking ALL of the discourse and theories online-- ESPECIALLY the fandom collectively squealing over lumity-- is utter insanity. i literally got interested in the show because i heard it had wlw representation. the planets and stars had to have aligned in the most impossible of ways for you to hod have heard anything about it. i am genuinely impressed.
tbf it isnt as hard as it seems when you dont engage with said media. it worked for me with AoT. Didnt catch on until s4 came out and i managed to avoid all spoilers, theories, and buzz around it somehow
Finally, a video as long as my entire work day 😂
I really do love listening to your meticulous, detailed analysis of media. Your Toy Story 4 video was how I found your channel. Calling your content underrated is an insane understatement. Keep doing what you love, you're amazing at it.
Excellent, if exceedingly long, video! You mentioned Luz giving Belos the light glyph a few times, something interesting is that Belos never used it past testing it for himself in the cave. None of Belo's glyph combos use the light glyph, and it's not part of his arm tattoos. Luz showing him the glyph made absolutely no difference, it was just something she could baselessly blame on herself.
This is henceforth the minimum length for an Owl House video essay.
The owl house,
what hasn't say, it's beautiful, it's a story masterpiece. It's heart loving show with characters that anyone can relate, understand and just made us love this show. It me personally understood luz when I loose, a family member. And how sometimes, forget about the walls between walls of reality and fiction. Or how Eda's curse made relate and understood my disability even more. I can't describe my love of how this show made me love cartoons, after steven universe ended. Even luz is the must relatable character, can understood why the actions she made. Because I would made. Some I already had.
And hearing disney cancel it, just broke my heart, because a show that made never made more happier espically during covid and freshman high-school any other show.
This show couldn't never be replaced how disney tries.
Thank you Owl house
crazy that a death of a father both: sets everything into motion, and also brings everyone peace in the end
I don't have 8 hours, but dame I will make time to watch all of this
I think this is the longest youtube video I've ever watched clear through. Anyway, anyone who spends several hours talking about the owl house is worth an immediate follow.
Yeah, I had to watch this video again
Such a phenomenal video, even if I still don’t feel as highly about The Owl House as you do
I will continue watching these analysis videos while dreaming that I can still be a part of them in the future
HOOT HOOT!
What DO you think of The Owl House?
@@SonicPlayer2004 ‘Tis good
it would be pure shit without hooty tho…
When this man is passionate about something he goes on about it for a real long time with max effort in his editing honestly why i subscribed to him
This video means absolutely everything to me, this show brought me into the light when I stumbled across it last year!! 😭😭😭😭😭 thank you so much for making this beautiful video
An 8 hour long video essay? It’s a love letter?? It’s about one of my favorite shows??? My god, I’m gonna be feasting on this for a while
Me: "I've finally finished all the 3 and 4 hours essay videos I wanted to watch"
*this 8 hour long video
Me: "god... damn it"
I love this video so much thank you for making this, the Owl House is by far my favorite piece of media ever, it has helped me through so much and through such hard times in my life, and I love it with all my heart. As someone who has dissected it as much as I have, seeing someone praise and talk about it for 8 HOURS is so gratifying and cool. You pointed out stuff that made me actually scream when I realized I never noticed, like Luz and Kings matching scars on their eyebrows, or the previous golden guard deaths. I can't thank you enough for making this video, it was such a fun watch :)
Congratulations for getting this out of the copyright nightmare a year ago.
This made me remember how much I loved The Owl House. This not only made me love it more than before, but has impacted me personally way more than I thought it would. Those segments about Gus and Luz almost made me cry. GamingMagic13, your videos are magnificent.
This was the best 8 hours of the owl house, I loved every moment
They actually used all the homophobic buzzwords Christian Parents use to describe LGBTQ+ relationships in the international version. OMG, my day just got a whole lot better because I get to laugh my ass off at the Taiwanese version of The Owl House saying that Luz and Amity are "Dressing Up and Traveling Together"-friends. I've just been sent over the moon thanks to your segment covering that.😂🤣🤣
Can you specify on what you mean by TOH's international dubs using said homophobic buzzwords?
@@EclipsingTNT "Dressing Up and Travelling Together," "Just great friends."
@@the_UF365Are those the only two, or are there more?
What you said about Hunter not being present for the final battle against Belos really resonated with me as a victim of familial abuse. Thank you, Trevor.
Timestamp
this may be mentioned later but with luzs fight with eda its important to remember its not just all of the guilt pushing her to sacrifice herself its also the fact that another mother is sending her away for her shes under all this guilt and just as it hits its boiling point eda in her mind basically sends her to the reality check summer camp
The Owl House is written by fans of the genre, fans of animation, people deep into fandoms and into critics of shows. But they are also professional writers, people who know what they are doing and are able to make everything come together in some way. They have the best qualities of both aspects and that created a show that can be enjoyed by the general public, by critics, and by chronically online people. I also relate to Luz on a personal level. I would do the same things if I was in her position. I relate to her bubbly, weirdo side, as well as her trauma ridden, self hating side. Glad to know you and I are similar. I would suggest thinking about getting an autism or ADHD test if you haven’t already, but you don’t need to if you don’t want to. Thank you for giving a love piece on one of my favourite shows and something I have connected to on a deep level.
Bonus: All I remember of Kikimiki- I mean Kikimora, is that she’s voiced by the same person that voices Tikki in Miraculous Ladybug
I was drinking water and then at 1:08:32 "I'M TALKING ABOUT LOGISITCS OF HOOTY PUTTING ON A FUCKING SUNSCREEN". I almost died.
0 regrets. 10/10. 7 hours left to go :D
Another thing about the sleep spell regarding eda's battles against lilith: Lilith is a powerful witch, not a magicless demon. The sleep spell is shown explicitly to not only be slow in its casting, but also in its travel. Lilith would have had no trouble simply blocking the sleep spell with a shield.
Woah. 8 hours?! You madman!
Will watch throughout the next few days, but I'm sure it'll be good!
it took me a couple days to watch this video all the way through, mainly due to its length and my adhd lol, but GOD is this one of the monoliths of analysis content on YT
i’ve seen this show a billion times over, and even i’ve come away from this 8 hour behemoth of a video with a fresh perspective and knowledge that even i didn’t know! it goes to show the sheer level of dedication put towards the video, one of which i hope gets thoroughly noticed amidst the algorithm. the clips matching up to nearly every word in the script is just shocking, in a good way lol, like, i cant even imagine the sheer amount of time which was put into delicately picking clips from every episode for a simple phrase
this is one of those videos that defines a specific subset of youtube videos, seeing you so excited and happy about something in the same way i am is always a joy, but seeing how high quality this content is, makes appreciate this even more
tl:dr great! hoot hoot
1:35:24 THE MUSIC THAT PLAYS IN HUNTING PALISMEN WHEN LUZ & THE PALISMEN ARE GETTING TAKEN BY HUNTER. it's such an excellent piece for no reason like oh my god. (also i forgot to mention it in my one piece comment but Everything you've praised abt the music here is present in op too. even with more magnitude and impact considering the scale of the show
As someone who's special interest in cartoons, mainly TOH, ty for this video. Currently at the Lunity writing segment. I love TOH and your analysis of Luz is refreshing, a lot of people trash on her, even though she is my favorite character and the one i relate most to. Love your videos and fuck the mouse
Me screaming crying throwing up, how could this show be so good. I’m so angry at Disney for cutting it short. How could they do this to us.
I watched this video in one go. As a video essay enthusiast, this video hit the sweet spot for my preferred video essay length, and didn't overstay its welcome even by a single second.
I cannot praise this video, and you yourself, enough for putting in the actually monumental effort it takes to make insanely long videos like this, and actually follow through.
The Owl House is my personal favourite piece of media in general, and I cannot overstate how much I love it, and despite its flaws few and far between as they realistically are, consider it a masterpiece of writing, animation, and storytelling. I had this video up on my other monitor as I chipped away at an extremely time-consuming and long-running passion project of my own, and I actually got it completely finished at around the 6-hour mark. Thank you for making this video, GM13. And thank you FG for mentioning TOH so that GM13 would make this video in the first place.
I'll definitely be sticking around and watching more of your stuff, as I absolutely adore how well-written and narrated this video is. I only recently watched TOH, so you're not alone as someone who had basically dodged all of the hype about it each time a new episode aired !!
Maybe it's time that I actually try making my own video essays. I've been pretty inspired lately by the likes of not only you, but also the extremely thorough reviews by ExoParadigmGamer.
Once again, thank you for making this video, it was an absolute treat to listen to and watch.
The Owl House is definitely a show that deserves way more recognition and praise. I haven't finished watching this video yet, but I appreciate the hard work you must have gone through to edit and record this behemoth, while getting the video through Yt's copyrighting. Gonna finish the video in my own time, but thanks again for the analysis!
Fun fact: this video is about half the length of the entire show (not including credits)
Oh wow
Belos is one of the best Disney villains there actually is in my opinion. And I'm really glad that you took your time with him in this video essay
Thanks FG for making all of this possible
I love how you referenced the Owl House fan songs all the time.
Oh dang i thought i wasnt the only one. All the ohgeeez references caught me off guard lol
@@AR_Animates first I thought it was just coincidences, but then it kept happening and I couldnt stop laughing everytime
This video made me cry. Finally someone else was able to express just how I feel about this beautiful show. Thank you.
I just finished watching the entire show. I loved everything about this show and I cried on multiple occasions for different reasons. I can't wait to watch this video so you can explain how beautiful this show is.
Ps: I love your work, man.
This show is genuinely fantastic. Thank you for making this video, I hope the people behind it end up seeing this, I’m sure they would really appreciate it.
This show will stick with me for a very long time.
Thank you Dana Terrace, And your crew for bringing this piece of beautiful fiction to life.
I relate to King on such a deep level especially after how you explained his character in this love letter. Struggling to be taken seriously despite there being more qualities to you besides just being childish or "cute" I'm sure is something a lot of people can relate to. It's heartbreaking when loved ones overlook your input purely because of this perceived incapability, like when Luz favored Eda's forced magic lessons over King *wanting* to teach her about demons despite it being just as important as any magic spell (at least in my eyes). Your section on King highlighted everything I adore about his character and how I need to rewatch this show IMMEDIATELY. Thank you GamingMagic I love the detail and passion you put into these projects never stop speaking your truth about your beloved medias this and many of your other projects will always be worth the wait!!
i just listened to this entire video. absolutely amazing. the owl house means so much to me! thank you for making this video!
This is one of if not the best RUclips videos I've ever seen. Thank you for making this masterpiece and you have made me want to rebinge the whole series again
The owl house as a series has influenced allot of what kind of people I want in my life both friends and lover, seeing this wonderful love letter helped me as well adore this series more then before getting to re watching all of this series from a full pov and appreciate it even more now years later after it came out. These long videos also is a godsend it’s just awesome to get videos of full breakdowns like this, which makes me more excited for other videos to come either similar to this or over it. Owl house is a piece of media that I hope for future generations will grow up with and learn and internalise cause having this in once life any age any time in once life is such a nice thing to have and does not insult once intelligence ❤❤❤❤
Wooooow I had a cameo in this video!!! What a great video, I definitely think the same about The Owl House and everything It represents. h Having started a toh blog and talking to dubbing people and more was something I will never forget, as well as the interview with Rebecca Rose. Regardless of the language or the country, The Owl House changed our lives and the way we watch animated series today....
I have watched many analysis videos on many different topics over the years, from games, movies, shows, etc. Yet I've found none quite as passionate as yours.
The amount of love and effort poured into them, whether it be tearing Toy Story 4 a new one, or praising a game like Dragon's Lair 3D to high heavens, make them simply a joy to watch over and over. I've certainly watched many of them multiple times since finding your channel over a year ago.
For a while now I've had a slight interest in The Owl House, but never really got to watching it. I'd seen clips before, and watched season 3 on RUclips even though I didn't have full context of the show. This analysis however, has made me want to go watch through the whole thing. Of course, I now know a lot of the plot points because of this video, but I still think it'll be a great watch-through.
It's somewhat inspiring to see you explain your love, or other times distaste, of certain media. I have my own interests that I'd love to explain to the world.
Two games in particular: Xenoblade Chronicles 2, which is notoriously a divisive title in the franchise, yet despite its admittedly big flaws, is still a game with a world and story that none other have managed to captivate me so strongly. Not to mention a gorgeous and also emotional soundtrack.
The other being Wandersong, an indie game that I've not seen many people talk about, which is a shame since it released in 2018. A beautiful story of trying to be a hero, despite being constantly told you are not the hero. (and something is done masterfully with the "Hero's Theme")
I want to express my love about these two games, as well as others, by making my own videos about them someday. I may have no experience with content creation, but it's something I've always been interested in, and your analysis videos really tempt me to dip my toes into it and learn.
I also want to say that the commentaries are an extremely fun time to watch. Your laugh is absolutely infectious and never ceases to have me cackle alongside you, particularly at 8:09:57.
I hope this doesn't come off as if I'm praising you like a god amongst other creators, putting you on a pedestal above all others, but I wanted to just state that the passion you have, and the effort you go through for your videos are noticed and very much appreciated. So thank you Trevor "GamingMagic13", and also thanks to the whole commentary squad for their continued support of your content.
wow... Did I just watch the whole thing? sheeeeeeeesh
Cool video
I think comparatively Stan and Ford from Gravity Falls did the sibling rivalry thing a bit better, and Stan giving up everything was a much better payoff than Lilith sharing Eda's curse. The difference being here, Stan was motivated by jealousy and fear, a fear of losing his best friend in his brother. That's understandable. Lilith on the other hand, from how I interpreted it, was motivated entirely by jealousy. Both Lilith and Eda were all about the Witch's Coven; they both shared the same goal, so the differential factor was on Lilith's interpretation of what that meant. It was personal. Eda knew the stakes too, but didn't let the idea of winning give her any motivation to harm her sister.
I also feel like getting to sit with Stan before meeting Ford served much better for their eventual meeting over having Lilith and Eda interact. I was almost certain that Lilith was the culprit just from their interactions, it gave a lot away I felt. I just couldn't sympathize with her; it felt like to me her motivations weren't to make Eda better, but to make herself feel better. She wanted to correct her mistake because "she" felt bad about it. It was like what an episode between her being an adversary to her being a part of the crew? Imagine if your sibling purposely maimed you in someway to win a competition. I know I'd feel betrayed for life; instantly leave my presence I don't want to hear from you again vibes. I wholeheartedly think she was forgiven way too easily.
nah if my sibiling took half of my curse and i can mess with them now, its all kosher. i already have years coping with it, now i can rag on them about it
Finally, i finish the Owl House and this video. Now i can rest... Anyway, next thing to watch is Amphibia.
Somehow I don’t think 8 hours was long enough to show the love and appreciation I have for this show. I think Luz said it best in the finale “it had helped me find my place when I had no other way. In my heart I’ll never forget it”
(I just want to say this somewhere and I’m choosing here) I like how with the first Lumity kiss the animation becomes smooth, like it does with the most important moments in the show. But with the second, the animation stays the same as it is in the non-important moments. I think of this as being a gesture to how meaningful and important their kiss in “clouds on the horizon” is in contrast to the second kiss, which is more of an instinct thing (I think)
Despite the fact that Disney (being homophobic disgusting company it is), cancelled the show, I really hope that Dana Terrance and the whole crew are aware of how life changing TheOwlHouse was for so many people. Luz Noceda is for me, what Azula was for her. She became my biggest comfort character, (she is even the reason I've discovered I'm Neurodivergent, which explains A LOT). Thank you Dana. The show might've ended, but the light glyph on my tattoo will always be a part of me, same as the memories
Be grateful they even greenlit it to begin with, like ur welcome to hate them but this show wouldn’t exist without their green light
This video showed up in my youtube reccomended this morning. While I was immediately intrigued by the title and ESPECIALLY by the 8 hour runtime, I figured I'd probably end up listening to it while I'm drawing later... Thaaat didn't happen.
Safe to say, this is one of the best videos I've seen on ToH in my life. And while I, unfortunately didn't have time to watch every segment and ended up skipping to certain ones after the first few (although I'll probably end up watching them later at some point), this was amazing. You talked about and elaborated on each and every point so perfectly. You show such a deep, legitimate understanding of the show's themes and ideas. You countered so many critisisms that people have had with it all so logically and well. I'm genuinely bewildered. The idea of someone having put all this time, effort, and thought into something like this is beyond me. Let alone managing to put it all into word so well... I could go more into it but I'd just end up repeating myself.
The only thing I'll say is that I really appreciate how you talked about the Collector. As someone who's been incredibly attached to and obsessed with their character since Hollow Mind (and as a die-hard defender of them since O Titan Where Art Thou, lol), it means a lot to me. The fact that you were able to explain his character so simply yet so thoroughly is wonderful. It still honestly kinda shocks me how long it took so many people the LITERAL ENTIRETY OF SEASON 3 TO AIR in order to understand the point of his character and addition to the series. Hearing someone explain how and why they work so well as the story's final antigonist despite being included in such a hurry after the cancellation, is so satisfying.
As silly as it sounds given how the video goes through EVERYTHING about the show, it's really comforting seeing the Collector be given as much attention and spotlight in analytical content as other characters. Despite certain issues I myself have with the ending that they gave them in W&D (as in, only getting a split moment to send off their character, him leaving on his own without anybody really caring that much about it, and the fact that we never see them again, and how kinda unfair and contradictory to his entire character that feels to me...), I absolutely loved hearing about him again. Over the past year I've gradually kinda faded out of my avid passion for ToH, so getting this in my recommended a year after the series finale felt nice! Thank you so much for making this ^^
Oh! And one last question... Did you get any sleep while you were working on this?
I dont even really know what to say for this video tbh. Thanks for making me cry all over again ig? But seriously, i haven't quite found a show like TOH since it ended. It truly is something special, and this video only put into words what ive been trying to for awhile now.
So great to see you make this video. I love The Owl House too! It's such a funny, creative, and heartfelt show, and I will always be thankful for its existence!
Took me three days to finish, but I thoroughly enjoyed this video. I don't normally comment on videos, but I have not seen this level of passion for a video in a long time. You did what Disney couldn't do, and did The Owl House justice with your analysis and I hope that others can discover The Owl House through this video. I know it made me want to binge the show for the 5th time since the series final. This truly was a love letter to such an amazing and impactful show. Thank you for creating this
Anddd now Im gonna spend the next several days watching The Owl House instead of getting any real work done
Great editing, great analysis, great video!
This series is amazing and I love it, one of the absolute greatest things from modern disney period. When people say that Disney's magic is gone, shows like this shows that there is still some sense of magic left from this company.
Dude im doing my makeup rn I can't be getting this emotional 😭 I always loved this show but this has given me a new found appreciation for it. Thank you
After two weeks of chunking away at this video in sections, I’ve finally completed watching this video. Thank you so much for all of the hard work and effort you put into it! There was so much that you brought to my attention that I didn’t notice on either of my two watch throughs of the series. It really increased my appreciation for the series and the team that created it. This definitely feels like mandatory supplemental material for anyone who loves the series and wants one last summary of the project.
This is by far the longest youtube video I've watched, it took me 9 days, but I'm glad I finished. Thank you for covering such an amazing show for me and many others, I cannot express how much this show changed me, it's a beautiful thing to see.
Wow, this is incredible. You pointed out so many things I haven’t noticed and have inspired me to do a rewatch. I only found the owl house this year but it means more to me than anything I’ve ever been a fan of before. Thank you for this video!
Can't wait for Trevor to figure out how he can break pass the 12hour timelimit and upload a 20 hour essay on the Mario francise.
“A poor man’s version of Amphibia?!” Excuse me?! While I do like Amphibia better I still love the owl house and its not an imitation of Amphibia AT ALL. It’s a show that stands all on its own and both are great shows…
i love this show a lot so seeing a video like this - man it really hits me in the feels. glad you enjoyed it as much as i did
Aghhhh I was absolutely OVERJOYED at coming across an 8 hour long video on this show!!!! Thank you so much for all the hard work on this, it warms my heart to see other people just as passionate about TOH as I am🫶
Your commentary was so insightful and even as a huge fan I learned so many new things due to your analysis, that just makes me appreciate TOH even more than I thought I could!!! The video flew by despite being probably the longest video I’ve ever watched LOL because I was just so invested in what you had to say!!!!
The Owl House is truly a one in a lifetime type of cartoon and even though I’ve watched some other really amazing ones, I don’t think any will ever beat this series for me💓 It’s just everything I could ever ask for in a cartoon I’m so grateful I got to experience it along with so many other people💘
Banger video, in depth breakdowns like this just make me adore the sheer creativity and skill the team behind this show had to do due to Disney's cancelling of the show, easily one of my favorite videos you've done and one of my favorite videos in the context of explaining how to do good writing (or just a really good example of such) I've seen in a while, good job, dude!
Man i was not expecting to watch a 8 hour video today but i am so glad i did
