After reading a lot of posts blaming Namaari for what happened to Sisu, I’ve decided to make my own post defending Namaari. Spoilers abound below.
Seriously... did we watch the same movie??? People act like Namaari murdered Sisu in cold blood, when actually she didn’t show any sign that she’d decided to kill Sisu. Her finger wasn’t even pulling on the trigger.
The truth is, Namaari was right when she told Raya that Raya was equally to blame for Sisu’s death. I couldn’t believe people were absolving Raya of any blame when Raya did the one thing you should never do when faced with an armed person aiming a weapon at an innocent person. You should never fucking attack the armed person, because it could lead to them accidentally shooting and injuring or killing the innocent person. And yet that’s what Raya did. Sure her intentions were good, but she still endangered Sisu’s life by doing what she did.

Sneak peak... of the scene I drew!
Tumblr media
The guy with the very druuny cloak is my villain: Alon. Or as the story addresses him, The Dark Soul.
I think it's time to reveal something more about my book...
Things start looking on the bright side in Kumandra, it has just been a few months after the druun banishment...
Raya was relentlessly aiming to fulfil her new mission, her father's dream, Kumandra. Everyone has finally started to find mutual relations, and with the help of her Ba, and her best friends and her favourite princess, the impossible starts to feel less so. Even her heart warming to... well, the one for her heart was too exciting to be true. It was finally the start of something beautiful. Though she had a lot to figure out about herself and Namaari, she was very happy to even be friends. All was well.
Until... at a festival in Heart, the threat comes... a humaniod beast, looking as though it were a menacing dark tree with clacking arms, which bear sharp pointy talons. Its eyes... glowing green like the menacing lime shade oozing from the cracks in its body... a monster powered by new magic. It looks fierce enough to slash its victims in half with just one swipe of an arm... and a mere live looking dead tree, so formidable that it's hard as stone!
And they imbue the magic deep set in them to rehabilitate the fury of the druun... turning the victim to stone with one touch.
And Raya who has finally started to fit into her role as the princess but never lost her drive that got her through the past six years... finds herself cracking the mystery after a best friend was turned to stone. (Don't worry its not anybody from the gang, or Namaari...)
An one thing leads to another as she finds a man behind it all... a man with magic? How unheard of!!
After much toil, restless nights and more battles, Raya is put in Tail... at the farthest village of the northern barricade, home of Boun.
Raya was out alone, and got into a fight with said bad guy's terrible monsters, (the batu as they are called). Only to lose it, and got captured. By the mysterious dark soul himself. And now, in the grips of her foe, she wonders if he really is who she thought he was.... what will happen next?
Will she find out who he really is? Is he really human? Or is he something else...? Some other monster?
Story by: @rainwalker-dragonblade29.
(PS: Story is still untitled... :P but guys I'm done with 14 chapters out of 32 in draft one... ik its a long way to complete with editing and everything and it turns out it's gonna take longer than expected, writers are not good judges of the amount of time it takes don't @ me. I'm not stopping work on this... just other things are happening in the real world so must attend to that... But maybe until next year? I hope the ratld fandom loves it, adieu.)

Wait, why do you hate Rayaari? No hate, just asking.
Oh boy, a RaTLD ask, how rare 😧
(Spoilers for Raya and The Last Dragon)
Honestly imo, they have no chemistry and Namaari just kinda a bitch to Raya. They're both cool in their own ways, but the ship's just lame as hell. If the story wasn't rushed tho and Namaari didn't gaslight Raya in the near end of the movie about Sisu's death (which made me angry at Namaari), I probably would've shipped them tbh 🤷

IDK IF SOMEONE CAN CONFIRM IF THIS IS TRUE BUT I LOOKED UP WHAT DEP LA MEANS(raya and namaari call each other this multiple times) AND...
Tumblr media
W H A T
(okay so I have absolutely no clue how tumbler works so idk how to reply to people but for the person who asked where they say this, they refer to the other as dep la in the beginning and then I think one of them might call the other it in a mocking sense when they’re older, I’ll pay attention when I rewatch later)

Some random small cultural nods that I noticed in Raya and the Last Dragon as a Filipino Southeast Asian:
”Have you eaten?”: A lot of food scenes, a lot of offerings of food. How Southeast Asian is that? If you haven’t eaten, you haven’t been truly welcomed into the group.
Eating together and eating on banana leaves (or having things wrapped in banana leaves)
Random fruits I saw that are native to Southeast Asia: longan, rambutan, dragon fruit, mangos, jackfruit 
Speaking of mangos: the absolute worship of them. If you don’t like mangos, are you OK? 
The taking off of shoes when entering into certain rooms
The specifically Southeast Asian martial arts including Arnis, Silat, and Eskrima...and let’s not forget the weapons like the kris/kalis sword.
Naga dragons
Not entirely sure what the whole name of Sisu (her whole name being Sisudatu) means, but I was surprised to hear “datu” at the end of her name. “Datu” refers to a leader or a chief in the Philippines.
The women at the forefront! Believe it or not, an exclusively patriarchal society is a colonized concept. Women were always leaders in SEA, and continue to be. Men and women were seen equally, especially pre-colonialism. In the Philippines (and in Filipino families), a lot of households tend to trend toward a more matriarchal household. Women are usually more in charge of the money. Though of course there are exceptions.
The emphasis on spirits and how humanity affects them and nature
The importance of water!!!
The importance of rice!!!

So, yesterday I read some (read as: a lot) raya/namaari fanfiction, and I noted that there is this trend of making Raya the flirty one and Namaari the gay panicking one. Gays, let me tell you something. Raya spent 6 FUCKING YEARS without social interaction AFTER witnessing the death of her father, and before that she was training to be the guardian of the dragon gem, so I don't think that she had a lot of time for relationships. HAVE YOU SEEN HOW SHE HANDLED NOI THE FIRST TIME SHE MET HER? She held her like you'd hold a sack of trash! Meanwhile Namaari was being raised to be a charismatic leader, and she became it! Look at how the kids greeted her.
In conclusion, Raya doesn't know how to people, she is an introvert and the oblivious one in the relationship that doesn't know how to flirt, meanwhile Namaari is the bottom that wants to ask Raya out but is devoured by guilt.
