Umbrella Academy and the way they’re handling Viktor transitioning is honestly making me cry. Just god its amazing
Five, Deigo and Klaus: Absolutely just accepts it instantly and moves on
Alison: Feels bad she didn’t know and they talk about how if he didn’t know she wouldn’t either so no guilt needed. Instantly is like “This is Viktor my tiny bad ass brother”
Luther: I WAS KIDNAPPED FOR A DAY WHAT DID I MISS?? Oh maybe we should throw Viktor a big party?? Welcome him as brothers :)
Deigo to Viktor: Do you feel loved?
Viktor: Yeah :)
Pls i could cry they’re in character and amazing and im so fucking happy rn

I don’t understand the argument for killing Harlan.
Like I get that Allison killed him more as revenge, but then Five compares it to him killing the board, saving one over the many, and he even tells Viktor he will kill him if he does something like that again
Realistically, killing Harlan at that point though wouldn’t fix anything. It gives them someone to blame, but killing him in the present doesn’t stop the paradox nor does it solve anything, so why is Five arguing for it? Why is he comparing it to him killing the board? Killing the board was supposed to be their ticket home, he did it with a purpose. Yes, it was a purpose they squandered, but there was a purpose there, but killing Harlan served no purpose and wouldn’t fix the current break unless Five managed to go back in time and kill him before then
Honestly, in this argument you would think Five would be the one sibling on Viktor’s side, and that would have been the drama. Like all this comes out and the other siblings are siding with Allison because they are ruled by their emotions more and would have cared more, but Five is a realist who has been through the wringer on this. We could have had scenes of Five going to Viktor and explaining that he was upset with Viktor and himself because Viktor didn’t feel like he could come to him with the issue, but generally they all seem to react in a way that proves Viktor right. He hid it because they were already talking about handing Harlan over to the Sparrows, and adding this information in at that moment would have solidified their decision to turn him over. By hiding it he was able to get Harlan to help him with his powers, and generally Harlan could have been helpful in either containing the Kugelblitz or in dealing with the issues at the Hotel.
Yes, the Sparrows wanted him before they would work together but they literally could have had Harlan and Viktor go in and knock them on their asses until they listened or simply used Sloane and Luther to convince them to at least wait until the end of the apocalypse or whatever.
It would have still been dramatic, but it also wouldn’t have felt as much like the siblings were all ganging up on Viktor due to past shit that was outside his control.
Plus I LOVE seeing Viktor bond with his siblings in ways he wasn’t able to before, it was a huge part of my love for the first 2 seasons was seeing the kindness and care they could offer towards him now that they were adults and not under their father’s thumb, and it would have been good bonding for Five and Viktor to be on the same side but still addressing WHY Viktor didn’t go to him right away, and easily could have resulted in some additional fun bonding for them at the wedding and then would have given them a stronger base before dealing with the Hotel bullshit, which could have still gone largely the same way, all without having this issue where it seems to always be all of the Umbrellas against Viktor.
They keep acting like they are better and different now that they are older, but they still revert to the childhood bullshit of isolating and excluding him when convenient, and I wish they wouldn’t because you could achieve basically the same results while still allowing Viktor to have one or two major supporters at all times (Which would also reflect sibling dynamics more, like it is hard enough to predict who is going to side with who, over what, for a majority between my 2 sisters and I, but there are an additional 2 people in that dynamic, at least 1 should be siding with Viktor)

Hot take: i think that Allison was more justified in her actions this season than Wanda was in MoM

nothing will ever be funnier than how in the umbrella academy when klaus gets hit by cars and killed like 20 times and THEY ALL JUST DRIVE AWAY IMMEDIATELY. 20 people in a row ran over a dude and killed him and just did not bother to stop their cars. i will never get over this.

Umbrella academy…. really went into ‘these are fictional characters who are Fucked Up so just enjoy the fire dumpster which is their moral personalities’ and if I knew them in real life I’d sucker punch them without a thought

UMBRELLA ACADEMY S3 SPOILERS AHEAD
Finished umbrella academy today. I like the season overall, and I think it’s hands down my favorite out of all of them especially with how they delved into everyone’s relationship dynamics.
That being said, plot-wise, I feel there was much left to be desired. Jayme, Alphonso, Christopher, and to a lesser degree Marcus served virtually zero narrative purpose and it felt like they were shoved into the story for a number quota before they got on with the real story. There was absolutely zero follow up or explanation for Grace being a religious fanatic and why she worshipped the Kugelblitz. Klaus, whose whole character up until this point was based on the fact that he saw scary ghosts all the time involuntarily when sober, did not see scary ghosts involuntarily until Reggie 2.0 took him to the cemetery even though he wasn’t high at all this season. And like maybe it’s supposed to be a nod to how he felt like he had to stay high all the time to keep the ghosts at bay and as he stopped doing that, he’s learning he never had to in the first place, but that’s such a reach that requires too much heavy lifting from the audience. It’s not even remotely addressed.
And lastly there were all the recurring motifs that weren’t properly followed up on: the roaches, the guests at Hotel Obsidian that they consistently zoomed in on in the lobby, all of the samurai/Japanese influence wrt Hotel Oblivion and the guardians, etc. We could claim they’re setup for season 4 but come onnnnnn. Anyway rant over, I’m just being nitpicky. There are plenty of things I loved too I just get chatty when I’m annoyed. This was my favorite and, imo, the most bingeable season out of the three. The plot moves nicely and I like the more sentimental turn things took even if there are a few noticeably loose ends.

When Five said “you know what they call a hero who works alone and doesn’t listen to anybody? A villain” I was hoping SO BADLY that he would say “a rogue” but then he made up for it by saying “no more going rogue” and I just cackled because X-MEN UNIVERSE ELLIOT PAGE VS UMBRELLA ACADEMY ELLIOT PAGE

Same as last season I’m a little wary of talking about Harlan before it’s over because I’m so mistrustful and can’t quite let go of the idea that there’s time to fuck it up but honestly right now (four eps in) I’m really happy with the Harlan stuff. For a value of happy that means... bawling.
He’s an adult. He’s spent a long, long time learning to live with Symptoms Disorder. He can talk, he doesn’t like to. He can touch, he doesn’t like to. He knows his boundaries, but he can’t always avoid crossing them, and sometimes he explodes and he can’t help it. The stakes are a lot higher for him than they are for real-world Autistics but it’s a familiar story.
If we want stories that focus less on looking good for the neurotypicals and more on telling an authentic story that will speak to Autistic people... this is it, this is what that looks like.
I know some people might not be happy with it. I’d put the odds of Harlan dying at the finale pretty damn high. But I actually think I trust them to make this a worthwhile story of a flawed and struggling and extremely human being who happens to be Autistic.
