It's kind of weird to talk about others having fragile egos then defend people upset/throwing fits over a children's cartoon lol

As for the second half, I liked it more than the first but wish the Evelyn "redemption" was better done. It felt very rushed, although the first half set it up nicely.
Also Orco's power up should have been explained. It came out of nowhere.
Kevin Smith even succeed in disappointing CBR with yet another bait and switch LOL https://www.cbr.com/masters-of-the-u...andra-romance/

I think if they were setting up a redemption they should have just had it be her as the Sorceress helping the heroes against Skeletor, not becoming the Big Bad herself and basically destroying Heaven. Like, really?
I mean, Adam and Skeletor teaming-up was fun (Panthor's death and why they would even give Skeletor the time of day after everything notwithstanding) and Teela getting a final fight with Evil-Lyn was fitting, but she didn't really earn a redemption or getting a pass for her actions in the last half in my opinion.
Yeah, shippers gonna ship anything that breathes, so long as they're on the same screen at some point.
Besides, the Teela/Adam thing has been around since the 1980s (the cliche era). So people getting mad at it now is pretty funny.
Just binged both part. An apparently unpopular opinion here- but I liked it.
Granted, while I grew up in the 80's, I have no real memory of ever watching the original He-Man cartoon. I know I must have, and I'm pretty sure I had a toy or two. But the only cartoons I really remember watching back then are Transformers and Inspector Gadget. So any changes, or character deaths, or any time it focused on characters other than He-Man- it didn't bother me. I was able to go with it and enjoy the story.
I thought it was a bit odd that Lynn seemed to get off scot-free. I mean, she nuked heaven and her army of the dead probably killed a lot of people. Well, maybe they can explore a longer redemption arc in season 2.
A lot has been said about a Teela/Andra romance- I just didn't see it. At best, they were good friends/sisters-in-arms. I never got a romantic vibe at all.
One thing that kept occurring to me- this really had a Transformers: The Movie vibe to it, in that it felt like they were killing off the old toy line to introduce the new one. Sorceress and a bunch of others- dead. Teela gets two new action figures. Orca gets a new paint job. New Man-At-Arms figure released.
I look forward to season 2, even if I didn't get the reference at the end. He-Man vs the Borg?
I had a problem with that too. I don't know is she really earned a redemption arc or to get treated like she was, but that's just me. And what a waste of Beast-Man.
Well, the only "old" toys they really killed off were Moss-Man, Sorceress, Clamp-Champ, Fisto, and some of the more obscure villains. Most of the major Masters of the Universe never even showed up aside from Ram-Man unless you count the Stratos and Buzz-Off generics.One thing that kept occurring to me- this really had a Transformers: The Movie vibe to it, in that it felt like they were killing off the old toy line to introduce the new one.

Hordak and the Horde.I look forward to season 2, even if I didn't get the reference at the end. He-Man vs the Borg?
Which would be kind of ironic considering the 2002 cartoon was going to do the Horde too.
Ridiculous. I grew up with the original show and I didn’t let myself get carried by the rumors and internet grifters into getting upset over stuff that just plainly turned out to be false. The idea that Kevin Smith should apologize for fake news and rumors to get people upset makes absolutely no sense.
