When Httyd is my favorite movie trilogy then this is my favorite Book doulogy ever!

Six of crows is by far, for me at least, the best book series I‘ve read. Such interesting Characters with emotional and sad backstories that tie perfectly in the main Story. Ketterdam is by far one of the coolest fictional locations ever. The Barrel is awesome, the crow club, the dregs, the whole atmosphere and aesthetic is so well thought out. The entire heist is such an amazing story in the first book and it continues to be amazing in the sequel. The Plottwists are great and very well written. The interactions and dynamics between the Characters are very interesting because all of them are so different. And Kaz Brekker, Holy Shit this Guy is just a Masterpiece of a morally grey Character. No other morally grey male character that I read about can hold a candle to him. Xaden Riorson is a Joke in Comparison, I don’t feel sorry about that. He is smart, he is cruel and so complex. If he would live in our World he would take the Wall Street down and crash it total. Kaz Brekker is out of all morally grey protagonists on another level. This Man is out of this world. Leigh Bardugo is a real Genuis. This Doulogy is a Masterpiece.

I can Highly recommend this doulogy. I promise, you will not be disappointed you will be amazed. I really need to read this doulogy again it’s so freaking good.

Also the crows deserve a whole Movie dedicated to them, they deserve the world.

fuck off you’re telling me we won’t ever get to see these beautiful people together again?

Literally fuck off Netflix you deserve to burn to the ground

Grishaverse,

Warrior Nun was able to be brought back. I don't know the legal specifics of the contract Eric and his team have with Netflix but we need to fight for someone to save this show. please let's trend #saveshadowandbone !

how to bug netflix 101

a few ideas/tips to put pressure on netflix to reconsider their decision, given the fact that a select few shows have had their fates reconsidered:

Keep Shadow and Bone & Six of Crows trending! Character names, 'No Mourners, No Funerals', Leigh Bardugo, and other key words might help too! And remember that the threshold to keep stuff trending gets higher the longer that words/phrases trend, meaning we have to keep it active!

Spam the Netflix title request form at https://help.netflix.com/en/titlerequest

with Shadow and Bone, Six of Crows, etc. At the very least, it'll inconvenience them.

Sign the petition at https://www.change.org/p/save-shadow-and-bone-a3b37712-c648-4b87-9bfc-8b8cd685c623

Fill their social medias with calls to renew. Again, at the very least it'll be annoying/inconvenient, but at least our voices will be heard.

If you feel so motivated, you can submit anonymous tips to publications and ask them to pick up the story (though there is no guarantee this will work). IGN, the Hollywood Reporter, Variety, and Deadline all accept anonymous tips without having to register or provide personal information.

UPDATE (16 Nov.) Send emails to the following people and let them know (respectfully) that we're unhappy with their decision and that they will be losing money as a result!

At the very least, Netflix has continually refused to listen to fans, even though we have shown that fandoms have the power to bring in lots of revenue; they seem to have forgotten who pays for their service and gives them the money they need to pay for the shows nobody has asked for.

Even worse, Netflix is holding the work of the writers hostage by owning the scripts yet refusing to produce them. Either Netflix needs to return the scripts to the writers, or they need to give the scripts to a platform who will actually use them and finish the story!

Industry-wide, there has been a repeated pattern of streaming platforms buying the right to a book or a series and then holding onto it without producing it or canceling it without finishing the story. This is similar to what 'patent trolls' do, filing for a patent without any real intent to use it. This is grossly unfair to the authors, not to mention the cast and crew whose livelihoods depend on a show surviving for longer than a season or two.

Leigh Bardugo deserves better. The crew deserves better. The cast deserves better. We the fans deserve better.

No mourners.

No one is handling sexual tension like Kanej.

Neither of them will make a move even though they both desperately want to. But instead of dealing with their trauma or admit their feelings

Kaz goes and calls out a room full of killers, beats the shit out of them, then takes over their gang

While Inej straight up ends the psycho that's been hunting her.

Top tier stress relief! Love to see it

Crows perching. Checkout my insta doodlesnoff for closeups and a show-book blended design!

Unsure if you already heard about it, but Google just dropped their top searches of 2023 and Shadow and Bone made the top ten for TV shows! That's crazy! It's even more crazy that Netflix decided to scrap it despite its popularity!

Let's keep fighting Crows! We know just how popular this show is and can be going forward!

I will never get over the time I was on a bike ride with a friend who hadn’t read six of crows or crooked kingdom and I went up a curb that was sharper than I’d been expecting and I completely unironically went “ooh, jogs the liver” and my friend was just looking at me like “…wtf”

Sometimes you don’t NEED skin on skin

Just to really bring the point home for those who have not read the Six of Crows duology and think that Inej deserves to “have some fun before she finds her way back to her true love”, or who perhaps think that a love triangle/jealousy drama would somehow spur Kaz into action (do you even know Kaz Brekker?):

For someone connected to the production to caption a photo of the actors with the (crack) ship name of their characters (“Tonej”) and talk about “skin on skin” might seem innocent (”it’s just an Insta post”), but let’s look at the context for those who are upset by this – some of whom have suffered similar traumas and find comfort/inspiration in Inej’s character.

Here is a sample of Inej’s previous experience of skin on skin:

There were young men, old men, handsome men, ugly men. There was the man who cried and struck her when he could not perform. The man who wanted her to pretend it was their wedding night and tell him that she loved him. The man with sharp teeth like a kitten who had bitten at her breasts until she’d bled. Crooked Kingdom p. 274 Kindle version

And these are the men she remembers; mostly she forced herself to go numb, while making all the right noises and moves so Tante Heleen would not abuse her further.

Because she loves Kaz, she tells him she is willing to work on that trauma IF HE WORKS ON HIS. This does not mean that she is itching for skin on skin action there and then, it means she wants to be ready for it if they are to have a future together. 

What if he had come to her, laid his gloves aside, drawn her to him, kissed her mouth? Would she have pulled him closer? Kissed him back? Could she have been herself in such a moment or would she have broken apart and vanished, a doll in his arms, a girl who could never quite be whole? Crooked Kingdom, p. 275 Kindle version

This is her mindset as she boards that ship in S2E8. She does not need a man who is basically a stranger to be her ticket out of trauma – not even a lovely one like Tolya (who in turn does not need or want romance in his life to be fulfilled). She needs healing, a purpose and – as a character – not to be reduced to half a ship in a fling which would be nothing but a waste of precious screentime. 

EDIT: Inserting screenshot of the caption/tagging of the photo depicting Amita Suman and Lewis Tan, just to highlight the clear reference to the characters  and not the actors, whatever was claimed afterwards.

Made a funky lil graphic to get some important info out there! Feel free to save and re-share, no credit needed lol

Here's the petition link: https://www.change.org/p/save-shadow-and-bone-5ff54b93-d127-44a9-9f77-dfc410bdc2ba

Here's a great Twitter thread that goes into more detail too (including why right now is the best shot we have)

EDIT: Also, there are watch parties happening SATURDAY AND SUNDAY! Plan to watch S1 on Sat and S2 on Sunday at 1 pm EST, and try to get new watchers to join!

If you choose to tweet as well, only use three hashtags or it'll be marked as spam!

A long shot, but as Nikolai would say - "when people say impossible, they usually mean improbable". And as Kaz would say - "if you can't beat the odds, change the game."

Let's give it one last fight! #NMNF

Saving shadow and bone isn’t just about shadow and bone its about sending a fucking message to netflix that they can’t cancel series just because they have to spend a little more money sorrows prayers motherfuckers you make more in a year than my mom does in ten suck it up you fucks

EDIT: pls sign the petition!!! Link

couple that slays together stays together

since Leigh Bardugo, Six Of Crows and Shadow And Bone are trending i want to once again make it everyone’s business that the cancellation of Shadow And Bone still makes me so fucking mad. It makes no sense. And the SOC spinoff scripts are already written and are just sitting somewhere. We need it back. We, the cast, crew and everyone who worked on that show deserve it
