Dragon prince amaya mute or deaf12/9/2023 To me, this heavily implied that she may have been deaf and needed to read lips in order to speak to other people. In the scene you mention, she needs Rayla to look at her when she's speaking to her. I was under the impression that she could hear, but is mute.Wikipedia says Amaya is, in fact, deaf. Is she deaf, though? She knows when Callum is yelling, and it seems like she can hear the door open behind her when questioning the elf. I think.Ĭonsidering it's just nine episodes I'll likely finish at least book one. "winter is coming"? "they will find you and they will kill you"? (I know there were more but I forgot already) you're better than that. What is up with the references? I wasn't paying close attention but you could make a decent enough drinking game already. I didn't know kid's shows today start out with assassination and murder.īut. And what little we know about the plot has me curious enough. I mostly like the characters so far even if few things are done perfect. Do we need that much backstory dumped on us? Speaking of avatar, you really had to copy the "book x chapter y" structure ? Yes, avatar didn't have an intro either but it was a way shorter introduction. It's not horrible but I think I'd like anything else more.Īlso : wow, starting out with 2+ solid minutes of narration. It has this weird effect that makes it look. I guess the first thing I have to say is that I really don't like the (character) animation. A realistic depiction of a deaf person with sign language being presented as essentially a different language.Īfter skimming through the thread I decided to give it a try and I've seen the first two episodes so far. at the officers academy, and being good at it as she seems to be she would have made it up the remaining ranks. In-world, her being born a princess would have been enough to give her a chance to get some formal training e.g. If the former is the case, she's a badass fighter because this is an epic fantasy cartoon, but that's not really necessary for a good officer. It may be the latter, given how good she is at lipreading, and maybe she was already an army officer when she lost her hearing. As of yet we don't know if she's deaf because she was born like that, or because of a later accident. I actually loved the world-building aspect that the character brought to the story.I really enjoyed seeing her. I bet she got to high rank because she is deaf-mute and could actually face the dragon king (remember, he was named Thunder due to his voice) in battle without having her ears destroyed. Maybe it'll improve, but nothing's wowing me yet. I liked the character designs and the voice acting was pretty good. There are bits where The Dragon Prince's animation looks really choppy as well, and the front-loaded exposition in the beginning was tedious to sit through.Īll in all, this show feels like it's off to a rocky start. There was even that scene with the girl, (Claudia, I think her name was?) reading a book that was titled "Love Amongst Dragons." All that said, the bright colors, the anime-inspired CGI animation and all. They even got Jack De Sena to voice the half-brother, (in case you were wondering why he reminded you of Sokka, that's one good reason,) and I admit, I was happy at seeing his name in the opening credits. What do you guys think about the show?I feel like the show creators wanted their audience to be reminded of Avatar, and hey it sort of worked. but their skill sets is different for each. The Prince seems like Aang, the half brother feels like Sokka, and the elf feels like Katarra. I don't know how old it is, but it feels a lot like Avatar. On that note, does anyone know what she said to her second before she left? I wish they had some kind of CC options for that part. but to have her be mute too? That made the stretch of her being on the top, unbelievable.Īlthough, it was weird seeing sign language in a cartoon, not a bad weird, just different. I was fine with her being a *gasp* girl!. Not only that, she was put to lead in one of the most contentious parts of the border. Why would you have a high ranking officer in the military, that can't speak. Instead of it being a really good show.Īlthough, one of the things that bothered me. Like, the reason people are going to love this so, is cause it has poc and stuff like that in. I can't wait for the host of faux-news sites to proclaim this some pc win. Hardly a thing is mentioned about any of our real world politics, in the pretend world. Like has a lot of PC characters in it, but if I had to say something about the politics. Was a bit distracting.Īgain, has a very Avatar vibe to it. So, the show is pretty good, didn't want it to end after only 9 episodes.
