Thank you. I don't know if you know I'm transgender(male body, identify as female), but I lacked a proper icon for it. Also, glorious picture of yours too. The new She-Ra show is sooooooooo much better than the old one. Except music. The original had way better music, imo.

I didn't know! But I'm trans also! Yeah I like it but I need a good trans profile picture for pride month.

If you have give me a picture, there's somebody on a Discord I'm on that can edit it for you. Your current avatar is good, but Allure isn't trans. She's implied to be either a lesbian or bisexual, though. Seems more lesbian. And I didn't know that either. You identify as female, if I read earlier posts right?

I need to find one I like. Pretty sure I'm gonna go with Sylveon or Gardevoir though. And yeah I identify as female! My girlfriend and I just finished She-Ra a few weeks ago. Currently waiting for the next season to go up. I ship her and Catra.

I wonder if they're going for a 3-way relationship with Catra, Allura, and Scorpia. I feel quite sorry for Scorpia, as she's a good person with a good heart. It looks like she might be a victim of the Horde's lies. But it's also hard to say if the Princesses shunning her family is actually something she was made to believe or is real. It isn't interesting how she's the only stand-out Princess too...

An also, nice. They're both great options. Gardevoir for "other" reasons, of course.

I know at some point they are going to have to make Scorpia go against the horde since they need to get all the princesses to join the rebellion. I'm really curious how they are going to do it since Scorpia seems to have no want of betraying the horde. Even though it seems like she doesn't have an evil bone in her body.

I think that depends entirely on Catra. From the looks of it, Catra may betray the horde. It seems like even her own mother treats her better, though not by much. I also wonder what'll happen with the evil with herself. Is she going to join the good guys? A third party who fights against the Horde and Rebellion? It should be interesting. I do wish they didn't split it against so fast. 6 episodes isn't enough. Though it is at least a reasonable split overall. They established a great cliffhanger spot with Shadow Weaver leaving. There's also a hint that she's not completely taken over by the darkness. What she said to Catra may have held some truth. She knows how horrible Hordak is. She even intended to gain the power to defeat him.

Isn't it being heavily hinted at that Catra isn't going to betray them and more just be banished for losing Shadow Weaver?

Oh, yeah, good point. Catra could still in the end choose to help the Princess Alliance. Scorpia will go where she goes. It's notable that Catra actually still likes Allura despite what she says on the outside. She always did. Shadow Weaver is a far bigger wildcard here.

I feel like the biggest obstacle for Catra right now is getting over that abandonment she feels from Adora leaving. Catra hates her for that .

Indeed. She also hates Shadow Weaver too now. And she honestly cared about Shadow Weaver, wanting to save her life from Beast Island.

Which makes it interesting what'll happen now. Catra probably will stay an evil third party if she leaves the horde. Shadow Weaver might be yet another evil third party to deal with, or a reluctant ally. Her student is also gone, which is a very important thing to consider. It could tie into why she would want to help the Rebellion, for revenge against her pupil's death. But she might also blame Mikah's wife for that too.

Yeah Shadow's backstory makes her intentions less clear. So I am interested in what they do with her.

I also think she might've been fine if the people actually teamed up with her. Though maybe that forbidden spell would've gone awry either way. There's no way to tell. But it's clear she is still capable of showing affection, so it's not a clear-cut "hard evil" setting. But more corruption. Corruption isn't undoable, which makes her an interesting character.

I think she actually cares about Adora. The show has been dropping hints about that. But it is still not completely clear what she thinks of adora.

True. Though makes me wonder if she's about to go after her. Maybe it's a matter of potential seen as with Mikah. Maybe it's more potential as a tool for war at this point. For all we know, her affection for Mikah wasn't entirely benevolent. It's hard to say as they aren't making anything clear. Did she do the spell to help others? Selfishness?

They did leave it on a cliffhanger with Shadow over her sleeping. So who even knows what’s going to happen at this point.
