TRUE 😂

You can't defeat the power of *plot armour*

IKR! I wanted to throttle him

He's not a teenager lmao he's like 500 years old

🤣 TOUCHE

A edgy teenager who has seen his wife die and how Grisha has suffered throughout the ages.Yeah I am pretty sure that would make anyone cold and distant.

@@rohits7364 it's a joke lmao

I didn’t read the book, but to be honest, Season 2 I don’t see the patience, I see Darkling keep pining for Alina. What he say might be right but the ways he handled it…is not smart. (PS: I actually want Alina to regret killing Darkling after 1000 years or something, but not likely to happen with how short-term the story go)

Mal cared so much about her that when he was done being an amplifier he just left.

Which show?

@@gayathrivenkatramanan7424 Klaus talking to Caroline from the show: The Vampire Diaries

THE VAMPIRE DIARIES SO TRUE

Klaus😌

And he never got to do it😢

Me too.

is it just me that kinda doesn't ship either

I prefer her with nikoia

Thats exactly what i thought too hahahahahaah

mal has no personality? since when? ur only hating on him cuz he gets alina in the end and the shadow pedo stalker dies lmao

@@pxtrat ok...what is his personality?(other than protecting alina)

@@pxtrat Oh yep. Alina. Alina is his personality. And tracking. Tracking too. Seems kinda two dimensional.

@@sasavekic5575 ....he likes to hunt and box, he's loyal, he's a good friend and a good person. Unlike the darkling who killed a city full of people? What's his personality? Sociopathy?

its mal alina and nikolai lol

@@Hi-sq5oi no

I think Nikolai would appreciate the Darkling’s style more than… whatever Mal’s got going on there 😂

So true!!

Yep

still better than the darklings cringy and dramatic speeches

"DON'T YOU DISRESPECT ME LITTLE MAN!!!"

@@pxtrat But the things he told is true,while I liked Mal and Alina in the book.The ones in the show doesn't have the chemistry,Kirigan and Mal had more chemistry than them.(Only my thoughts)

​@@rohits7364 that's a lie

all mal clears is a room when he walks in it

@@mistressseymour did he or did he not beat the darkling singlehandedly, answer the question bestie

tbh i don’t remember 😭

@@simi6003 that was d most stupid fight that I have ever seen. It was just a pure luck but still so badly executed. Darkling was beating him badly without even using his powers but in the end luck was his side when volcras arrived. I was unhappy with the scene because even if they wanted this atleast they should have executed in a proper way. How would you react on Matt winning over Klaus from TVD🤯 ? That same feeling

@@simi6003 I don't think so. The darkling faught fairly specially that he wasn't able to use his power, yet Mal still can't beat him. It's the other way around even though the darkling's hand was stabbed by Alina, Mal is still no match for him. It was the volcra who got him and not Mal.

@@raven-nova275 I didn't like a single episode after Ep5 TBH. The show down played Grisha as dumb and anyone who's on the Darkling side just to make Alina and the crows look smart. Seriously, think about it in ep1 Grisha with different magical powers didn't kill a single Volcra but then we have the crows killing volcras with knives, guns, a cane.We have Ivan and Fedyor not sensing Kaz's lie but then with the conductor Ivan could sense lies easily 😕 Milo suddenly is in the military camp and conveniently near Mal with the bullet in its necklace, mal used that bullet to free himself but the guard decided to not get up and check up the sound's source 😑. Alina after ep5 is kinda two-faced (blaming Aleksander for her friends' death while she was the one who caused it, saying that the king deserved every bit of Genya's revenge but then goes to blame Kirigan for wanting to overthrow the same king, guilt-tripping Genya). The show was good until it wasn't anymore. It went down hell.

I agree it’s toxic but idk y I jus like the ship lmao 😂 the only reason why I don’t ship it is cuz Alina a minor 🥲

Have you read the books yet? It tells you in the third book. Spoilers : Mal is an amplifier like the darkling but not a shadow summoner and Mal is a nephew to Alexander/ the Darkling. The darkling's mother has a sister who gave birth to a child who later that child gave birth to a son who is Mal.

Plot armor having no personality needing ideal boyfriend who has no real connection to the female lead other than childhood friend.

Definitely in the show. In the book Nikolai is.

Fr While Mal went through hell to help Alina but the fandom treats him like trash

@@moona3206 Exactly. Mal loves Alina in a selfless way and the fandom still hates on him for no reason and ship Alina with the abusive, controlling Darkling

​​@@roy.shresthaDoes he though, or is that just what Mal actually is shining through? When we found out what Mal is, I started questioning their connection. Aleksander and Alina are literally soulmates (and I don't mean that in a romantic way. They're both living Saints and two halves of the same coin), but Mal is human for the most part and his desire to be near Alina comes from his Morozov blood, being what he is. I don't think it's love between Mal and Alina. Mal was from a line created to help Grisha, some of which were destined to die at the hands of Grisha.

They already Romanize suicide with Romeo and Juliet

@@AshleyBrown-qj2mo but at least that was writing in a different time a time when ppl thought that stalking is romantic that writing love letters with your blood is romantic but we know better now the Author and show runner should know better ppl should know better there it's defrant with mental illness and making the ceractors do something wrong and addressing that it's wrong and having the story about learning and forgiveness or about consequences but that's not the case her they are selling this is a epic love story and that is so wrong and ppl thinking its cute it's destrbing

I don’t think it’s a romanisation of self harm - the pain the cut causes isn’t due to poor mental health or an unhealthy coping habit, rather to prevent someone separating her from the only family Alina has ever had. It could be argued the show still uses harming oneself as a plot device but, the contextual reason for it is important

@@lizfeelsfunny9949 this is a love story between her and mal yes or no so everything she does is romanticizing their relationship ever look touch letter every action her cutting her self is romantic just like him getting him self in jail for her is romantic their matching scar is supposed to be romantic so yes they are romanticizing self harm hurting yourself to be with someone is toxic no matter what it's disgusting

@@nightmare1641 Well it is fictional story. It does “romanticize” self harm but that’s not an automatically bad thing. Nitpicking is such a dumb thing to do, sure I agree It’s toxic and dark but that’s what the author intended it to be! Unless you are ok reading a story where everything is a-ok and not relatable.
