First of all, both Glimmer and Catra would love to see you in your lacy lounging gown, Adora, but secondly I am dying of laughter at the image of Adora slipping out of her fancy underwear excuse me "lacy lounging gown" and having a suit of armor underneath instead of the other way around.
"Watch out, Catra, here I come!"
Indeed.

so… i just watched the first episode of the ACTUAL she-ra, the 80s version. i have a lot of things to say, but first and foremost.
i love how spop fans were attacking it for being misogynistic when the male characters were equally, if not more “sexualized” than the female characters.
like LOOK at this. he-man is arguably showing more skin than she-ra. it's not just “oh women are objectified while men are allowed to be normal human beings”, they're both wearing revealing clothes because they're adults who can do what they want.
of course, i do think that they look like your stereotypical man and woman (with the men being more muscular and the women being more petite) but i think that's to be expected from such an old show.
anyway, i'll move on to the rest of the episode. it was pretty good. i have to admit the humor was a bit stale, i wasn't the biggest fan of cringer. his name is very fitting. however, there was a lot of visual comedy that made me laugh, like glimmer teleporting right when catra pounced at her.
also love how one of the horde members is like “catra's in trouble!” and adora coolly responds with “forget her”. reboot adora could have used more of that attitude with catra.
speaking of catra, her voice is HILARIOUS. i think i would have liked the reboot catra a lot more if they kept that voice.
i have nothing much to say about the rest of the characters but i do like glimmer already. it's clear that the show was made for children, judging by the comedy and the storytelling so far, but i have a feeling the show might get a little more serious as it progresses further.

Good girl
Suggestion from one of my lovely Patrons. There is also a NSFW version which is exclusive to Patreon. Old costumes, but Adora's still a good girl ~

One of the She-Ra servers I'm in did a screenshot event to redraw the Barbie movie poster with an SPOP twist. So, naturally, I did it as Glimmer and Bow and I thought it would be fun to replace the car with the infamous bubble carriage from the original 80s toyline for funsies.
I like to think that one of Glimmer's ancestors used to use this carriage to tour the surrounding towns (like the popemobile but for magic royalty) and, when they are repairing the caverns below Bright Moon after the war, they find it there in storage. Glimmer thinks it's hilarious so they take it out and take pictures with it.
Bow has no lore, he just loves his girl.

Spop Rewrite
I mentioned in my first post that I was planning a Spop rewrite, and I want to go into more detail about what I'm planning and some major notes.
The Story
The story will include many elements from the 80s show, especially the world building, while following the reboot story structure.
Major plot points from the reboot will still be included, for example, the portal. However, it will be written differently and happen for different reasons.
I want to put emphasis on how war can affect people differently and the changes people undergo during it, as well as show multiple different demographics be affected rather than just the main cast.
Additionally, I want to focus Adora’s platonic relationships. Platonic relationships are going to take a forefront in this story rather than romantic ones.
Major Notes
Catra’s redemption arc will be longer and separate from Adora.
Catradora will be canon. However, their entire backstory and relationship will be rewritten. To clarify, I am not a C//A stan. However, I do like their characters in the 1985 comic and can entertain the idea of those versions of them dating. Also, the ship's writing makes me mad, so I want to prove that I, some rando with a lot of free time on her hands, can write a better friends, enemies to lovers relationship than the people who got paid to do it. So, I'm essentially making it canon just to prove a point.
The major changes in their relationship are that there will be no "siblings or dating?" mess involved in their relationship(yuck), Catra will actually be shown deeply caring for Adora, and their relationship will not be abusive in the slightest (still toxic because Catra is a villain but definitely not abusive, and becomes healthy later on.) Additionally, it will be a subplot to the story, not the main focus. It also will not only be made canon at the very last minute.
Seamista will also be canon. However, it is completely rewritten as Sea Hawk is 80s Sea Hawk, not reboot Sea Hawk.
I'm on the fence about Glimbow and Scorfuma, so there's a good chance they won't be canon.
(Clarification: My Double Trouble is closely resembling 80s Double Trouble and the She-ra Bible version, so if I use she/her pronouns for Double Trouble, I am not talking about the reboot version. )
Conclusion
Is there anything you would want to see in my rewrite? What should I consider when writing it? What should I avoid? Tell me what ya think.
(And before anyone complains, I'm tagging this in the main tag because this post is related to the show. I find the idea that you can't tag posts related to a show in the main tag because it's not " positive" and is criticizing it to be a bit ridiculous. There's nothing wrong with critism as long as it is respectful to the real people that post under the tag.)
