Given how wildly She-ra indulges in the no-limits fallacy for what She-ra herself can do, that's not that weird.

Rogelio had a drawing in his locker of himself and Kyle along with a half-lizard half-human baby. So yeah, I'm guessing everything is on the table.smile

My theory is that it involves magic womb plants provided by Perfuma and Plumeria.

I miss this show sometimes. There aren't any other cartoons that are as campy out now.

Never trust anyone who uses "degenerate" as an insult.

Really? I didn't think this show was all that campy at all. Especially not coming from a She-Ra reboot.

I'm suggest CGI He-Man show, it's campy. One of the heroes is called "Ram Ma'am".

I wonder how much of the plot could have been avoided if Adora had also said "It's wrong what the Horde did to you".

The thing is, I don't think that Adora was aware of what had been done to Catra. Especially things like Shadow Weaver directly telling the latter that she was disposable if she stopped being useful as a companion to Adora.

If Adora had been aware, I suspect that she might well have said something.

(Bear in mind that, until the first episode (if I recall correctly), Adora thought that the Horde itself was perfectly fine.)

Yes, while training as a Horde soldier, Adora fully believed that they are fighting for a righteous cause. Only during her first day at the battlefield did she realize that they are killing innocents.

She seems to have been sheltered even within the Horde, though. Catra doesn't seem to have had any illusions about the war.

[up] Indeed, Catra, as I recall, was very aware that they were "the bad guys". I seem to think that she wasn't aware that Adora wasn't aware that they were "the bad guys", however.

Catra's reaction to Adora revealing the truth about the Horde certainly comes across as her assuming that Adora was already aware of this.

Adora: I'm saying, this is wrong. They've been lying to us, manipulating us. Hordak, Shadow Weaver, all of them.
(Beat)
Catra: Duh! Did ya just figure that out? Manipulation is Shadow Weaver's whole thing. She's been messing with our heads since we were kids.

I think it's part of the reason Catra reacted so poorly to Adora defecting. Adora was either genuinely that stupid about what was happening (pretty ridiculous, even though that's the truth) or she was pretending and her "figuring it out" was the build-up to her defecting and abandoning Catra. This one makes a lot more logical sense and in an environment with Shadow Weaver being the main teacher, it's super easy to see why Catra would assume that's what happened and that Adora deliberately left her out of the loop.

"Really? I didn't think this show was all that campy at all. Especially not coming from a She-Ra reboot."

The show can be silly but "campy" isnt that much, I least is not 90 campy.

[up]If I have to guess is because adora is shadow weaver favorite so she can easly belive the whole deal, Catra have being recibing the end of Shadow weaver bad feeling hold no ilusion but think this is her think with Adora.

Granted, Adora siding so quick always feel jarring

Well, Catradora’s canon and Glimmer got a good partner in Bow, so I don’t concern myself with continuing to fight finished battles.

Adora and Glimmer had their cute moments, so its not like they couldn't possibly be shipped.

This is about the upcoming live-action series, also backed by Dream Works, but that adaptation has finally found its director: Nicole Kassell (Watchmen (2019), The Leftovers)
