It's so funny that everyone thinks that Hunters voice is annoying when he's the voice actor for Hawks in my hero and everyone loves his voice in that LOL

VesperQuartz15

I love your theories guys but the blood it’s just in her glove😅it’s not that convoluted.

Cassandra Nightshade

You guys would love gravity falls 🥰🥰🥰 and steven universe too 🥰

Patrick Jordan

You both have wonderful voices and team gravity falls

Harley Carolus

gravity falls or invicible are both great

jamurano

Gravity Falls for sure! Steven Universe would be great, Teen Titans (I know you guys reacted to a couple episodes, but I know you guys would love the show).

hayden

cartoons i think u guys would love: gravity falls, steven universe, the dragon prince, infinity train, bojack horseman, over the garden wall, and harley quinn the animated series!

Angel Hernandez

Mid season finale reaction next week right after we watch the series finale is gonna be fun. Great reaction and I can’t wait for more

Lindsay Bellerose

Very true! I was hoping they'd talk more about it

Cathy Breuer

I would love to see Gravity Falls, but Dragon Prince is such a good show too and you've already seen the first 3 eps. I would say watch DP first, them GF. That's my vote :)

fr0st

Can't wait for the next one. Some cool stuff coming up.

xiolette

I’m also surprised they didn’t connect Hunter’s “Come back with results or… well, you know” with how it was shown earlier that Belos threatens him with violence to keep him in line. Boy fully expects physical punishment when fails and has normalized it to some degree with how he’s like “uh isn’t it obvious? there’s no other way to read this message.”

xiolette

I want to suggest Amphibia at some point, but Gravity Falls is a classic and it will be fun seeing you watch a show made by Alex Hirsch after only knowing him from his voice acting. (He also does A Lot of voices in GF and it’s great)

Laurissa Tucker

man watching 2x10 reaction soon after the finale airs is gonna hit different i reckon x) i definitely think you should watch gravity falls next

Brandon Comer

I would stay subscribed for either Legend of Vox Machina, or Invincible.

Byron

I continue to advocate for Gravity Falls next!

J. Jenny Jameson

WOW Kenny ran with the blood on Amity's hand theory. Don't think I ever heard something like that back when this aired.

BlueEyedRaven

I'm still hoping for you both to finish the Dragon Prince. Season 5 has been announced for release of summer 2023. So that will get the episode number up to 45. But The Legend of Vox Machina is a great series as well.

fr0st

If you have a look at the fight I'm talking about, you'll note how much more similar Amity's goo usage is to Gaara's sand, even though the goo is liquid-ish and not ideal for blocking punches. That an Hunter's sudden phasing in and out to indicate speed is heavily close to Gaara vs Lee's fight specifically, I think.

Suplee215

Amity's fighting style here is more based on avatar. Her voice actress was katara and the pouch is a reference to katara's water bag

fr0st

I'm reasonably sure that this fight is a reference to the Gaara vs Rock Lee fight in Naruto (which was indeed epic and worth checking out). Amity has the little gourd with the sludge and Gaara has a sand gourd and they both use it to block punches as a defence and also use it to restrict movement for their very fast opponents. A fun reference that I would be shocked to hear was not intentional.

Lady Esmeralda

This is one of the episodes where all I can say is: THEORIES! There were theories!! Theories about THINGS!!!! .... In all seriousness, you guys have no idea the depth of storytelling that has been, is, and will be happening. And I can't wait to see how you ingest it all!!! Thirdly, I'm surprised that neither of you noticed that Hunter was digging HIS FREAKING GRAVE as a reaction to potentially failing Belos. Says a lot about that relationship and his MH. The boy needs all the therapy and hugs. Plus, did you notice the shadows under is eyes all episode? This child is so sleep deprived and is literally fearful of his life! Belos is clearly one of those "the subtext is more important than the actual words of supposed comfort" parent(figure)-types

Big K

Gravity falls. You guys would love gravity falls so much, I’d love for you to react to all of them but if I can choose just one, watch gravity falls

fr0st

Yes, which makes Luz's confusion at Amity's response very relateable

Blacklung

fun fact, the message luz sent on her tomogachi to amity at the start of the episode that amity didn't understand said "U R pretty"

JHB

Need a doggo-ear counter

VexAndTrinket

I would love to see you guys react to The Legend of Vox Machina!

Callum Ringsy

The Grimwalker book reminded me that backgrounds are Very important going forward, because a lot of story elements are conveyed that way due to the show's shortened timeline. Episodes like 2x16 and 3x02 for example rely heavily on examining background details to get character backstories/world lore.

Jenny D

I’m surprised neither of you noticed all of the similarities to Katara and Zuko this episode! Hunter is a jaded 16-year-old boy with a scar on his face (implied in 2x06 to have been given to him by his father-figure) who is doing bad things to earn the love and approval of the dictator who raised him. Then we have the 14-year-old Mae Whitman character, Amity. The last time we saw her at the Knee she was struggling to do a simple fire spell without a training wand, and earlier in the series was struggling to make powerful abominations without unknowingly wearing a power glyph. Now in this episode she’s doing all of these crazy, powerful abomination spells effortlessly, and also reflexively doing a fire spell with one hand. She’s even carrying her abomination goo in a hip flask and using it fluidly like she’s water bending it. The two of them end up in a cave (after being confronted by a crazy lady who wants nothing more than to be the dictator’s second-in-command) where Amity admits that they have things in common and she offers Hunter friendship, but then he betrays her. They have an epic fight, and at one point she traps Hunter in a ball made up of the liquid she was bending. It ends with Hunter returning to the dictator somewhat-victorious while Amity goes back to the other members of their anti-dictator group. Even Belos’s face reveal this episode reminded me of when Ozai’s face was revealed, where he had been built up to be this terrifying, all-powerful figure, but then we see his face and he’s just a guy. Yeah Belos has some gunk on his face, but besides that he just looks like a kindly grandfather.

Jenny D

Also, Luz’s original Tamagotchi message to Amity was: U R PRETTY

Jenny D

The Katara and Zuko parallels were off the charts with Amity and Hunter this episode! I left a longer comment highlighting all of the ones I noticed.

Suplee215

Mild spoilers but it's made clear later on you're correct, amity says it took a little bit to connect with ghost. Also that is what the palisman adoption episode was about with the kids bonding to theirs. Took hunter a little bit to bond to his

Suplee215

Episode 10 is tbe mid season finale of season 2 and struturely to me feels like the end of the season with epsidoe 11 beginning a new one.

Suplee215

One thing is I do think Amity's people pleasing began with her mom. She dyed her hair the color her mom wanted, did good at school as she was told, broke up friendships for her. So looking at hunter and amity as similar due to that fits even more.

Jenny D

And Luz is kind of like if Catra was raised with a loving family.

Jenny D

Amity is like if Adora wasn’t raised as the favorite child.

Jenny D

I normally don’t notice when the animation quality suddenly goes ham, but the Amity/Hunter fight was the first time I noticed it, which automatically made it my favorite fight of the series!

Jenny D

Ghost is Dana Terrace’s real life cat! Iirc she got her early on in the pandemic.

PearseNation

My vote is definitely for Vox Machina. Season 2 was insanely good, imo.

Jenny D

One of the ingredients for the Grimwalker is “Bone of Ortet” and Montana might be interested to know that ortet is (sort of) a plant term.

James Rabbit

I'm looking forward to next episode a LOT. All of season two is great, but next episode is probably my favourite.

Imari

Palisman have their own supply of magic’s and their owl bile sac. Meaning if any human being had a palisman they would be able to perform all types of magic by using their staffs magic. This is why hunter is able to use magic he’s not human but he’s a witch with no magic so he needs glyphs or a palisman to perform magic. In the S1 finale Luz uses owlbert to ignite glyphs she placed on the portal door the use of magic also gets more creative later on.

Zo Hunter

Also, the way Amity's abomination goo is used so fluidly, it looks like waterbending. Which is cool because Amity's VA is Mae Whitman, the VA of Katara

Bazil

Actually speaking Palisman isn't unique to Hunter (Golden Guard). It's not super clear but it seems you just need to bond with your Palisman to understand them. If you recall in one of the episodes Eda can also communicate with Owlbert.
