Riko Sato you should watch this video, with the audio muted. and put on "its ok, youre ok", by bonjr in the background. it hits hard...

I know... A few people, wou can relate Not that I'm one of them! Don't be silly. My life is great.

deep

Yeah

@@black97_0 lucky

Oh, YA *THINK?*

Right?!

Does anyone now what episode that is ?

@@sofiadelu uh no but I belive it’s in season 5 or 4 most likely 4

Yeah I think it was cause of Scorpia

@@sofiadelu the season 4 episode ‘Fractures’.

MacroMicro12 that just means she’s not cut out to be evil.

@@RikoSato Maybe

She did, but now after she opened the portal and after double trouble made her realize what she did she’s starting to regret her decisions

@@chloehwong2107 or she'll double down on them in denial

Bravo! You are totally right What's the best thing in being bad than having fun while you are conquering the universe!! But that sounds a lot like Disney And that's why She ra has not taken that path... And SCENE🐉❤️

Oop-

😂

Tass Queen or king

*Hey catra*

By far best comment of the year

YE. S another me there’s barely double troubles around here only catra and adora

Scorpia leaving Catra makes me feel both happy and sad at the same time. It’s strange. Right?

@@justaturky2890 What made me sad was when you realize Catra did care about Scorpia. Yet treated her poorly and being a toxic friend. I was happy when Scorpia finally said “You’re a bad friend” but also, sad for Catra. She was written in a way where most people can relate and empathize with her.

You definitely have a good point ❤️❤️

Double Trouble really was the VIP this season!

Seem your face like that is almost as good as the cheers.... almost

Sometimes you just need a reason you suck speech.

Yeah W DT

Hopefully she does!!

Totally agree

Here’s hoping.

Redemption WHOO!

@crazy soul She already had people who cared about and respected her, but her jealousy of Adora who wasn't even in her life anymore, and her desire for power was stronger than her ability to respect others and she drove them away.

Yes ....liked "she's realizing this now" I'm really hoping for a change

Random Centurion Catra is in a cycle of abuse and self esteem. I know the feeling of that, but unlike catra. I broke the cycle. I can only hope for a fellow fallen, to rise up and break the cycle and become bigger. Stronger. Greater. Then the cycle she is trapped in. To break the chains she thought were safe and true and just. To wake from the nightmare she saw as a dream. To strike down, the monster she thought was her friend. Her guardian. Her only hope. I hope she can remove the porcelain mask- Before it’s too late.

I smell a Redemption Arc

Hoping for that Redemption arc! Either by death or her trying to find her way own self worth and with Glimmer’s help possibly see how Adora feels why she left the horde in Season 1. #Catradora #Endgame

Well they actually said that Carta WILL have a redemption ark and maybe Hordak too (even if for him a redemption would be bad but a SECOND chance would be 100% better )

^^^^^^^

and abusive. yeah.

@@tianna4344 You commenting literally just showed how my comment was right.. she’s misunderstood and your one of the people who is misunderstanding her-

@@ToeEater1108 misunderstanding the abuse she put people through? no I completely get what they were trying to do with her character, but as someone who has been abused by someone like catra, I choose to acknowledge it.

@@tianna4344 Actually, it’s the opposite. Shadow Weaver abused Catra, which made her mental state worse than Shadow Weaver’s. She was surrounded by bullies and mommy issues her whole life, she became one herself. But she got better, and that’s all that matters.

Storm Breaker you love it!

Riko Sato yes I do

Masochism at is best. Why are we like this? This was a great video tho and how can we not replay it.

Green according to Double Troubles voice actor, they care about her enough to tell her these things.

I think they care about catra to the degree of "Tough love" with harsh truths and none of the sappy shit

I think it's both. They don't really care, like they ain't Friends. I guess they are the kind of person who thinks they are the best and likes to give advice to feel better and superior. They saved catra just for the money. They made an impression of catra's fears to show off.

@@martinap863 Not really. Double Trouble know exactly who they are. They don't need to pretend. But, because of the nature of their powers, they need to know who everyone really is. They helped Catra because of the money, but, when that was over, they didn't hesitate to tell her the truth. There wasn't a point to what she was doing

I think Double Trouble cared enough for Catra to call her out on her toxic behavior. They told before that they study the people they copy very intensely to get in character. So DT knew what Catra went through and felt like they should talk with her about it. Sure, they love drama way too much but in that case it was like killing two birds with one stone: helping her out and receiving a little bit of personal entertainment as payment.

THIS HITS ME IN THE FEELS

People who watched She-Ra: 😠🤬😭😭

E105_Alpha me too.

Aww Ikr

:(

Yep

Double Trouble did the job

Double Trouble, darling

Dubble trouble has hash, but she needed to hear that

She is damaged, really damaged.

Neurotic? Try borderline sociopathic

Italian Job wooo

@@falconeshield Yeah!

Glad I wasn’t the only one who noticed, nearly all of the name characters in the Horde were three dimensional characters, not just 2D cardboard cutout villains for our hero’s to face. In fact, with the exception of one or two, which we barely saw any of through the show, I wouldn’t call any of the named Horde characters “Villains”, just antagonists, this includes Catra, Shadow Weaver, and yes, even Hordak. The only true villain in the entire show, is Horde Prime himself. To anyone reading, go back and watch the whole show again, and pay close attention to characters like Shadow Weaver, Hordak, Catra and Horde Prime. Yes the first three did bad things, but tell me, how do they measure up to someone like Horde Prime?

​@@commandercritic9036 Horde Prime is actually the final and most incredible vilain of She-Ra, but Shadoweaver is just behind him. Horde Prime is the origin of all the scenaristic problems, even the exploit of Etheria by The First One was probably to defeat him. Hordak is litterally a creation of Prime, so he is no match, and his loneliness and crave for recognition led to his destructive path, and he ended up finding connection and renouncing his meaningless search. Catra is the fucked up product of Shadoweaver abuse, even given a deep redemption. But Shadoweaver... is the cause for the entire emotionnal conflict of the show. Think about it : she is the one who messed Catra and Adora, and then Glimmer. She is the one that abused every three main characters of the show, causing the most extrem problems before Prime. She is the one behind the mindset of Catra that led to the opening of the portal, she is the one behind the hero complex of Adora, she is the one that pushed Glimmer to activate the Heart of Etheria. She is the constant shadow of the show, even imprisonned she is nothing less of a threat, because she plays on a mind level. Even when Prime is here, reducing Hordak to a faceless clone, pushing Catra to redemption, she is still played like a threat to both Adora and Catra, and almost ruined their reformed relationship. Even at her very end, she managed to achieve a appearant "redemption", but actually causing more emotionnal trauma on Adora and Catra. She is the last antagonist on the way to the Heart of Etheria, the last thing that prevented Catra and Adora to be together, therefore disissing Prime's plans of taking control of Etheria. For her constant presence through the whole show, she is on same level with Prime. Prime should have had one more season to have a clear win (and that would have been awesome on every level, damn you Netflix).

@@blade7y156 I don’t disagree with what you said about Shadow Weaver, because it’s all true, but you also have to remember her past. She was set on the path she walked because of her desire to defend Etheria from the Horde, now to be fair, her methods were not the best, and the Council of Mystacor were right we denying her, but they should have at least encouraged her to find another way. By flat out refusing to even ATTEMPT to fight back against the Horde, drove Shadow Weaver (or as she was known then, Light Spinner) to desperation, and a desperate magic user is a DANGEROUS magic user. This of course leads to her and Micah attempting the spell of Obtainment on their own, and we all know how that turned out. From here I’d say it’s fair to assume the Spell of Obtainment corrupted her, mind, body and soul, magnified all of the dark traits within her to create the Shadow Weaver we all knew… but the person who wanted to stop the Horde was still there, deep down, forgotten. Then Catra defeats her, and Shadow Weaver ends up locked up, and has time to think, she remembers who she was, the reason she pursued this path. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that after remembering her old life, she goes to Adora, to give her information that will help her defeat Hordak, that said, the darkness that had corrupted Shadow Weaver wouldn’t let go that easy, or rather, old habits die hard, and Shadow Weaver couldn’t help but use her new situation for her own gain (kinda two birds with one stone deal). This trend continues right until the finale, where Adora finally gives Shadow Weaver a reality check and puts the old woman in her place (which is why Catra finds her drinking when she returns) after this, her only concern is helping Adora reach the heart… And here is where the old Shadow Weaver dies, and Light Spinner is resurrected. There’s a moment, when Adora runs back for Catra, where Shadow Weaver turns towards the Heart, even through her mask, you can TELL that Shadow Weaver is tempted by the power there. Despite that though, the choice she makes, is to rescue Catra, to give her two adopted daughters the life they deserve, and remove herself from the equation. After all, what was Shadow Weaver’s final line… “Your Welcome.”

@@commandercritic9036 And you perfectly explain why I think Shadiweaver is an incredible antagonist. Because even when she was manipulating Micah into gaining more power, she was persuaded (or at least persuaded the spectator) that she was doing that in order to save Etheria from the Horde, then turns on the side of the Horde the very moment it can gave her more power. We even give her the benefice of "darkness corruption", but it is clear she is acting almost the same with Micah than with Catra or Adora, projecting her own insecurities, manipulating them to gain power. Her last act was kind of a redemption, and I'm sure she thought it was, but really it was a final act of abuse : by saving Adora and Catra in her dyong breath, she forced them to forgive her all the abuse she did, all the bad things she cause to her. Even the spectator falls for it.

​@@commandercritic9036no. Shadow Weaver is definitely a villain.

Yes! I love that about both shows. They may be targeted more towards younger audiences, but they teach valuable lessons we can all learn.

Steven universe has an abuser whose never called out on their actions and Genocidal Space Nazi's who literally kill millions, try and kill more with a magical mass grave, and get a 'happy ending' for it because 'they didn't know better'.

That's not a sad reality at all. It's empowering!

That’s why I never called Catra a villain, just a sad scared lonely child. A true villain doesn’t need to justify themselves to anyone, especially not to themselves.

@@fumarc4501 I emphatically disagree. Catra is just as responsible for her actions as the rest of the Horde. The best literary character that I can parallel is Peter Pettigrew, aka Wormtail from the Harry Potter series. The fact remains that while both suffered unrelenting abuse at the hands of their superiors, they both caused irreparable harm; not only to innocent bystanders, but to the friends and family they both supposedly cared the most for. Both had full agency, both never once assumed responsibility for their actions, and when each one of them was given the opportunity to apologize and make amends, they both took the easy way out. Regardless of whether or not she meant to hurt anyone, a lot of people are suffering because of her.

Aww so sweet!! I totally agree!!

@Ada Jen exactly...and Adora left which made her even more sad...and then shadow Weaver"left for Adora"

I knoooowwww! She needs a hug! *RIGHT NOW!*

I just hope she gets some happiness when this is all over. Poor girl. :(

Catra better find some kind of happy ending when this series is over. If she can’t stay on Etheria then she could scour the universe in search of new people she could befriend ,start over and GENUINELY be happy and with a lot of help not repeat the mistakes of her past. But I Really just want her and Adora to finally find some kind of Solace with each other at the end of all this and admit their feelings for each other, one could only hope.

Sirhon Dissidium A man of culture I see

Is there seriously no liqua' here?

Angel is a little racker

I love that sm thank you ^

Shut up! Shut up! We are keeping this!

Yeeter Parker apologies.

I can definitely agree with that

Honestly the harsh reality from double trouble was nessisary. They really showed catra how far shes fallen and how much her mental state has crumbled since adora left. She abused Scorpia, only for her to leave. All she had was DT, who truly showed her, if harshly, that maybe it wasnt just how others issues fueling her choices. It was her own choices too. She was her own worst enemy, which for people with mental illnesses (like me, i have anxiety) can hit really close to home

Double Trouble may have been a backstabbing asshole but they were also the one who gave Catra the wakeup call she needed. Without Double Trouble, Catra would have just continued to destroy herself and ruin her relationships with everyone she cared about. I guess in that sense, Double Trouble kind of did act as her best friend because none of the others were willing to tell Catra what a colossal bitch she was. The worst Scorpia ever said about her was "you're a bad friend" and although that clearly pierced Catra's psychological barriers, it didn't outright rip them to pieces like Double Trouble did. To quote Avatar Aang; "When we reach our lowest point, we are open to the greatest change."

@@tomnorton4277 I mean DT never were her friend, Catra was paying for their service. So I guess Glimmer just paid them more. It’s hard to call it “backstabbing” when they never pledged their loyalty or anything.

@@aayaa_me Double Trouble wasn't lying when they said "It's for your own good, darling". If they hadn't smacked some sense into her, Catra would never have been redeemed. Whether they were doing it in a "cruel to be kind" way or just an "I've got you all figured out" way, they still helped Catra become a better person and by doing that, they also helped her find happiness. It adds a layer of nuance to Double Trouble because they're helping Catra whilst simultaneously stabbing her in the back.

@@aayaa_me i Mean yeah sometimes double trouble just want price but sometimes they like to critic someone, even though its not their/double trouble friend...maybe double trouble didn't do that for kindness but they just tell it because they like to critic someone even though like that, i glad double trouble come on the right time... I Mean at least they try to help i guess and also scorpia leave catra because she want to like avoid toxic relationship..well the only way to avoid a toxic relationship is just like leave them or they have to change (i mena the toxic people/friend) cause we cant change them,they have to chance with they own self.

definitely, catra has reasons for acting like this. she’s been broken, betrayed, abused over and over again till her heart shattered into a million pieces. but that doesn’t justify her abuse towards scorpia, towards those she cares about. i understand she has many emotional baggage, that she’s not clearly a villain or a hero. and that’s why i love catra’s character so much. she’s developed, and continues to develop as the series goes on. she very much three dimensional. catra character isn’t black or white. thank the heavens for giving us one of the best characters of the year-of all time.

@@chloechong6205 not only that Catra should have accept Adora's offer to leave the Horde instead she declined it.

Scorpia* lol she isn't a zodiac sign sorry I just had to make the joke. 😅

@@myaedelman and Ronne too

@@sarahzahira4915 She should have, but her mindset forbid it. I've found so many videos analysing every bit of the trauma(s) of Catra, and it's fascinating how well written it is.

"But you knew it would end this way. Your friends dead, the world on fire and you, Alone. You're a failure"

@SpotlightVlogs and Reactions Spec Ops the Line

"End scene"

Yeah

And a Carling friend

One that is always there for Catra and comforting her in the hardest times

@@jumperthehedgehog2932 yep

Yeah.. season 3 and 4 were shown how low catra has gotten mentally. It just made my heart hurt. Especially when she can be a good person if she wanted to. She didnt want any of this

"accepted" is how she saw things, the reality saw that she was prisonner and the only one to gave her a little bit of trust here was Glimmer

Tori thank you!

Broken, lost, and misguided is what Catra is, brought up and raised in a bad environment where she was seeking love in the wrong place and from the wrong people.

She was always my favorite ❤️❤️

Was about to say, she was already my favorite due to how much I can understand her. While I don’t act like her in any sense and I can see through the bs. I understand her neglect, her betrayal, her suicidal tendencies, all for revenge. She has nothing to lose, and she’s aware of that. She’s confused, alone, and broken, which makes me love her character more due to how vulnerable she is, since she’s much more fleshed out and not just a blank slate like many antagonists turn out to be.

Coolote agreed

Agreed.

Agreed.

ISTG I THOUGHT IT WAS PART OF HER FACE....

Well adora isn't actually is her sister xD

@@lmaolini And yet they were raised together and were closer than the rest of their friends in the orphanage. I don't see the humor in someone suffering from abandonment.

True, out of all of the characters, Catra had the most realistic emotions

@SpotlightVlogs and Reactions yes because sweet home alabama.

@Lesbi_ _real but they're not sisters.

Kurk Kobee Arana That’s kind of a character trait for one of my OCs of My Hero Academia.

The majority of season 5 was her arc, what did you think?

Camryn JJ yes she has. Makes me excited for season 5!

Yea I agree

Lucy Rosevile thank you.

@@RikoSato I think you did really well making the video ^^

I think noelle (the main producer of the show) confirmed the end of the series is only the beginning of catra still getting better, so yeah its not unrealistic i agree

kelly booth I say more of a Zuko.

I'm seeing more Azula so far, if they want to give Catra a redemption it should take more than one season. People were saying the last scene of season 4 was the start of her redemption, but it could easily be Catra doing it for her own gain

Janasia Chavis Too bad season 5 is the final season with only 13 episodes again. So things like exposition and lore could be crammed down in a couple of episodes.

I have a feeling everyone is going to end up redeemed in order to face off Horde Prime. They've made sure to show EVERYONE on the show has some good in them, even Hordak. The only one so far shown without an ounce of good is horde prime.

Honestly in the finale Catra ended as more of a Zuko. Sure it seems rushed to some but she finally started to understand the harm she caused and almost got killed off for it thanks to her being chipped. And she seemed so scared after being revived by adora that even in the end with adora she refused to leave her behind. She knows her promise and was going to keep it.

Well you got your wish in the finale i can spot at least one catra and "sparkles" scene in season 5

Forenza Audio thank you!

Weeb :3 that’s a mood.

Well shadow Weaver is abuse catra or like catra having a bad/abuse chillhood. So double trouble try to tell that what catra is wrong to everyone that she done like she treat everyone like what shadow Weaver do, abuse them. Some how double trouble give catra therapy/Made her realize that what she done to everyone but somehow sometimes DT is hurt catra too. I am not really blaming everyone after all like i don't blame catra,scorpia or Double trouble etc. But you know that a life that's reality . I respect your opinion but i still disagree,sorry.. Edit : but look at the bright side everyone get their happy ending you know..

But even if Catra is the victim of Shadoweaver, she was the abuser of Scorpia, Entrapta, Adora, Lonnie, etc... She pushed Adora away, then Entrapta, then Scorpia. Catra is written to represent a toxic friend, and for showing them a hope for improvement.

Yep same here long time ago girl 💔💔

Agreed

Httyd Universe I haven’t removed anything so I have no idea what you’re talking about.

1 year later, finale aired a while ago, your thoughts? Im interested in what you think

Well i Mean that's the only way double trouble give therapy to her /make her realize that what she done..so i am not really problem with that atleast double trouble help catra on the right time even though double trouble is still kind evil..
