David G.

The commitment is *AMAZING* probably won't be able to watch until later but I am looking forward to it.

Olivia Arthur

OMG I’m an Americorps NCCC member and I just got back to housing to find this I AM SO EXCITED

Brianna Schoenehrr

The costume is Fantastic! What a fun treat for the last reaction

Olivia Arthur

I’m exhausted from working and now I just get to sit back and watch some She-Ra

Valhallen

Are we not gonna comment on how Mortius in the fit looks like when Micah disguised himself as She-Ra?

D. Sparrow

I was literally about to actually

LunarFellidae

My internet lagged and froze the video so all i heard was "What this episode doesnt need is the French" and it is sending me

Gabriel the Sorcerer

As soon as I saw the fit, I thought of Micah! Awesome costume, you LOOK powerful!

Alyx

"What gender is this?" "Violence."

Catradora fan

"If I had a nickel for every time a catgirl and a blonde kissed, I'd have two nickels which isn't alot but it's weird it happened twice." 😅

ChRiAn

Nice Mic-Ra cosplay!

cafe

Haven't seen it yet but this fit already makes it worth the wait, love it

Shay F.

So so glad I checked for this upload while sitting in the hospital waiting room, what a peak way to spend part of my wait I love the fit, the Micah cosplay will go so hard

Nicole

MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY!

Lykeios Little Raven

It's funny because i've always wanted to cosplay that exact moment! It's the only character in this i feel like i could maybe pull off, lol.

Becofalltrades

Woo, ugly cry time LET'S GO! Edit: Update - I gave myself an asthma attack with crying. And best news ever on this bittersweet day, we're getting a SECOND FINALE REACTION with your WIFE? It's not over!

D. Sparrow

Mortius be like "but I was so caught up in the potential drama of a Shadow Weaver betrayal that for a moment I lived in a world where Micha wasn't chipped"

ChRiAn

I would have loved a heart rate monitor for ths one

Catradora fan

Catra: "Adora doesn't want me! Not like I want her..." ok show, stab me in the heart 😵 also cuts to Adora thinking of the almost kiss 😭

Joined Cause of Shera

Liking and commenting before I even watch, first for the coolest cosplay I've ever seen, and second because of AAAAAAAA IT'S FINALLY HERE LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOO I ONLY JOINED FOR THIS Also this came out RIGHT WHEN I FINISHED ALL OF MY COLLEGE HOMEWORK AND I'M SO FUCKING READY LET'S GOOOOOO AAAAAAAAA THANK YOU MORTIUS YOU'RE AWESOME :DDDDD

L Frances

Oh man, this got to me. I'm so incredibly happy you got to see this series. That any of us did, really. I'm a former film critic, with some very high-end art often topping my favorites of each year, and Season 5 of She-Ra is still one of my favorite things I've seen this decade. It's a miracle. It's a profound case of skillful filmmaking & storytelling bringing a simple style to the absolutely sublime. I still pray that some thing changes in the world that may bring it back someday. Given the horrid currents of the industry, and how it treats queer & trans creators, I have some doubt on that, but like you said, I gotta believe: WE'RE GONNA WIN IN THE END!!

Olivia Arthur

Oh it’s just as beautiful as the first time I watched it <3 truly a perfect show. This show will forever be my favorite comfort show- I’ve seen it so many times and I still cry and feel all the emotions every time. I don’t think I can put into words what it means to me.

Brianna Schoenehrr

I am so happy that you have been able to watch this through till the end. Everyone who watches this show ends up having it hold such a dear place in their hearts. And it was amazing to get to see you experience it!

Catradora fan

I consider this series finale and original ATLA are the benchmark for finales

The_owl_house_amity

You in the shera costume is not only, 1. Gold, 2 it really gives the scene where Micah disguises as shera then shows his face,

daniel hengels

Looking forward to this:) really glad you made it all the way through the show as its so special to me for its representation like social anxiety/autism with entrapta. Im sure ill be crying at a few points during this as the writer really puts the audience through a lot with catra and adora.

Loeka groentjes

This finally will never fail to make me emotional 🥹. I’m glad you love this show as much as I do 🥹

Cora Bedwell

i dunno how many times i've seen this show but it gets me EVERY time without fail

Ashton Wizard

I was NOT expecting the cosplay lmao but I love it

ChRiAn

"And I wont lose another parent!" Goes on to Kamehameha at point blank🤣

Shay F.

I'm laughing so hard I accidentally paused the video and didn't realize it after he said "I've run out of reaction battery, guys" and I just thought he really had to sit in it in silence for a while

Frank Wales

Landing: extremely very stuck. Emotions: extremely very shredded.

Down in the Dojo

I love this show, love your reaction, love the outfit. I don't know if I can watch this though. Your audio is so loud in comparison to the show audio that your breathing and fabric rustle is drowning out every other line.

Trash Goblin

Yes you get that seven hater rant in, Mortius! (even though there will be zero crossover and they shall sadly never hear you)

King'sBard

Mic-Rah with glasses

Tristan Haller

I love that we had three heterosexual ships confirmed in these two episodes, and *all three of them* have plausible platonic deniability, while Catradora get to be in-your-face explicit. Compare and contrast Catea and Shadow Weaver making heroic sacrifices--Catra: "I'm sorry! For everything!"/Shadow Weaver: "You're welcome."

River Roth

Its validating because WARRIOR for sure. Get yourself a proper sword. That looks so good.

Ferret

My favorite part of this finale: how it truly all comes full circle. The entire series, her entire life even, Adora has refused to put herself first, constantly sacrificing and denying herself and refusing to even consider a world where what she wants matters as much as literally anything else. But in the end, she finally, *finally* makes a choice for herself, and it's the thing that lets her save the world.

Lykeios Little Raven

Thank You so much for reacting to this series, Mortius! i've enjoyed every minute of it. SPoP is one of my favorite series ever and it's fantastic to see it getting so much love! It's been a blast watching it with You. Very much appreciated! Also, i cry my way through the finale no matter how many times i watch it, including the Shadow Weaver scene, so don't feel bad, lol.

Dafydd Mac an Leigh

Well, you know what they say, Shadow Weaver died doing what she loved: traumatizing her two foster kids

Joined Cause of Shera

Second comment after finishing watching this... All I wanna say is thank you, Mortius. I don't wanna be overdramatic but the truth is I haven't actually seen Shera since probably a couple of years, and watching you go through it was incredible, I felt like watching it with a friend. That's actually why I like your reactions, cause it feels like I'm watching things I like with a friend :] (saying it as something nice not as parasocial lmao ik you're not my friend) I cried again, I remembered how important this show and the kiss scene was to me as a kid, and I found out that I still remember the dialogues in my language lol. Thank you for doing this series Mortius, it really became one of the highlights of my week. Hope you see this comment 🩷💙 I'll stay subscribed to support you cause you deserve it :D

Jonathan Schroeder

Shadow Weaver died doing what she loved, emotionally scarring Catra.

whisp-error

every time you talked about your goosebumps was so relatable every time i watch the she-ra finale i get insane chills

little_sun

Sorry in advance for the long comment! I’m so happy that you loved this series, it means so much to me! This plus Vox Machina is the reason I joined your Patreon after being a long time YouTube lurker. I love your analysis of the storytelling as a writer and DM, just as much as your music analysis. Thank you so much for reacting to this series and doing it justice

Tiggs

so glad i joined the Patreon for this series!! Your videos make everyday a little bit easier, Mortius. Thanks for being your amazing self and inspiring me to do the same each morning; it reminds that, well... "WE'RE GONNA WIN IN THE EEEEEND!"

Dafydd Mac an Leigh

Shadow Weaver's sacrifice is intriguing to me. Her entire life she's been trying to gain more and more power, and she knows that the magic stored in the Heart of Etheria, if she could figure out a way to access it, would give her all she would want and more. It seems more than likely the whole reason she adopted Adora at all was that she recognized the baby was a First One, and she's spent Adora's whole life grooming her to use the Failsafe so SW could harness all that magic. So to see her abandon all that at the last moment, and prioritize keeping the magic away from Horde Prime over taking it for herself, that's a monumental choice for her. It's not a redemption, of course, but it still says a great deal about who she is and what she cares about.

Ferret

Also a small detail I love: Horde Prime's all about the light symbolism. Man loves him some "I am the light, and all else is the darkness." But the second he's faced with *real* light, light stemming from love instead of fear and control, he winces away from it.

Phoenix_mercury

It also feels very(intentionally) as a "I'm sacrificing my life for you, I'm leaving you with a ton of complicated feelings and theirs nothing you can do and you're going to feel at least somewhat indebted because of it"

Michael Olson

Thanks for seeing it through and for letting us share this great piece of media with you!

Callsign-Corgis

Is it wrong with Mortius' monolog in the beginning immediately triggered flashbacks to "It's Over Isn't It?" And now I'm crying again 😭

Vee (he/him)

Funfact: Lonnie, Kyle, and the lizard guy(forgot his name) are all implied to be together(it might be confirmed), and they take care of Hordak's imp thing

Ashley Evers

I'm pretty sure that was the point 🤣 During that episode he specifically mentioned wanting to do this cosplay 🤣

Ashley Evers

The happiness about the look is perfect 😁🎉

Neil A Langsather

Hey thanks for this series reaction, I have been one of those who joined the Patreon, because of She-ra. As a nice bonus you finished on my birthday. Thank you for the present.

ad astra

Raz’s line at the end really got me for some reason, in addition to all the typical bits. Such a gorgeous ending! One of if not the best series finales ever, live action or animated.

Loupetron

Even watching the reaction of an episode I have watched countless times now in a tiny obscured corner, I still bawl at this beautiful ending. It’s always great to see it through fresh eyes, but it will always, always be a part of my heart and a reason why I started to embrace my queerness more publicly. Because like Adora, I have always seen myself as just a tool to be used, but maybe one day I’ll find my cat-boy and live happy as an aro-ace person. Thanks Mortius for always being awesome!

SHolmes

Thank you for your amazing reactions.

CalvinTheCat

My answer to Mermista's question: Yes. Yes we are all okay with this. Also ND drew the couples they envisioned as canon getting married. You should check them out its so cute

Makayla H

I can't believe it's over!!! This was such a good reaction series. Honestly didn't even matter that you knew about the kiss. It was still so much fun to watch your reaction to everything!

IHaveThatPower

[immediate reaction] ...oh no 😂 Honestly, you look quite a bit like Micah when he was posing as She-Ra as a distraction back in "Launch"! Anyway, hooray! We made it! We're here! I am so ready for this. I saw the notification pop and was so frustrated that I couldn't jump into watching right away. (Oh, hey, you mentioned the Micah/She-Ra thing, excellent! 😄) "I'm almost grieving this series being over." Bruh, saaame. This show is what finally got me into reading fanfic, just to keep hanging out with these characters. Worth looking into, if that's your thing; there is some *incredibly* good SPOP fanfic out there! Anyway, on with the reaction! ❤️

Hooded figure in the dog park

Can't believe we're already at the end! It's been great watching along with you. Love the extra touch of dressing up for the finale <3

IHaveThatPower

[Heart, P1] "It feels like everything has been perfectly crafted to come to a head for this episode." Aaaaaamen. "AAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOH." (In response to "Adora doesn't want me, not like I want her.") Yes, exactly. Exactly this. 1000% this. "PerforATION!" cracks me up every single time. "Okay, I didn't realize Light Hope post-factory-reset was homophobic." The worst part is that the First Ones' tech plays on the memories and feelings of the people there...really emphasizes Adora's own internalized walling off of what she wants for herself. "'cause we've been hearing for five seasons how this is going to end: WE'RE GONNA WIN!" It's not a spoiler if the show itself tells you, right? The *music* when Adora decides to part ways with Bow and Glimmer is *so* heartbreakingly beautiful. "What do you mean, I've only been watching thirteen minutes of this so far???" These last two episodes are paced *amazingly* well. They pack in *so* much, *so* effectively. "'So do something good with it for once,' through tears welling up." Just like Glimmer said to her, too. "I just pause at every line of dialog that Catra says at this point. I have too many emotions about this show and universe and characters." Yes, same. Entirely. It's *wild* how embedded into your heart these characters get. "I'm going to combust!" Bow's "*We're* the Best Friend Squad" kills me every single time. Fun fact! Karen Fukuhara had to ask how she was supposed to deliver the "I love you" line from Glimmer to Bow, because even *she* wasn't sure if the intent was platonic or a romantic confession! (It was, apparently, the latter, but I agree with you that it's a touching moment no matter how you read it!) Mara's line, "You're worth more than what you can give to other people. You deserve love to" is pretty much *the* thesis statement of the show. "Absolute cinema." Before you even said it, I started snickering because I *knew* you would love Sea Hawk's attempt to reach Mermista. (Minus the lack of shanty, of course.) "...how did I not see that coming?" The whole time, as you were predicting Shadow Weaver instead of Micah, I was thinking, "Ohh, this is going to hit him hard..." "WWWWWHAAAAAAAAAAT?!" Yep! Yep. "We are going to react to *just* the finale together." YAY! That's *delightful* news! "I have so many thoughts. So many emotions. And the only I can do with them...is press play." Yessss, LFG!

Hooded figure in the dog park

I remember ND mentioning in an interview that Shadow Weaver was extremely wine drunk in the scene with Catra in the cave

S.E.W.

THIS

Ilove_Jaya

OH MY GOD THE COSTUME MORTIUS MY FAVORITE REACTOR HELLO

Lunal

I can never watch the end without bawling my eyes out. I don't think I have ever seen a show that left me at the end with such a pervasive good, hopeful feeling. And to see them end up together happy after so much struggle and loss. Ahhh. 😭😭 Also the cosplay was a 10/10 addition to the finale, no notes. Thank you for taking us with you on this journey!! ❤️

Regal Knight

I 100% recommend Kipo or Amphibia next! If you loved this and/or owl house, you'll love it dude

IHaveThatPower

[Heart, P2] "This is an insane finale, guys." Truly. So much happening, all at once, all over the planet! "That...was beautiful." That scene, starting from when Glimmer has the vision of Angella, always gets so blurry for me...can't imagine why. 🥺 Bow's speech is *so good*. "I can't even call it a redemption arc." Yeah, no, no redemption for her. But...at least an attempt at some small atonement. (Minus the self-serving "You're welcome", of course...) "My first tears in the finale of this show are for *Shadow Weaver*?" Are they, or are they for Catra and Adora in that moment? That's how it lands for me, at least. As you noted, she's their mother figure, for better or worse, and no matter how awful she was, a mother sacrificing herself to ensure her "kids" survival has a lot of weight. "Just hold hands and each take half the magic." Yeeeeah, I don't think any number of mortals could share that much magic. "Dat's da smooch position!" You're not wrong...but also, there's a lot of episode left... Hordak's moment is *so* triumphant...and then so *trivially* undercut by Prime. It's *so* rude, *so* awful, and *such* a good villain move. "And it being Hordak's body at the end of it all is crazy symbolism." Right? It's *so* well done. Hordak still gets to be the Big Bad at the end, but it's not *really* Hordak. "Is this the future they could have?" Fun fact! It is apparently intended to be Etherian custom that couples exchange tokens with one another to indicate their long-term commitment(/marriage?). Catra is wearing Adora's pin (and, y'know, has that capelet/jacket in her colors). Bow and Glimmer are each wearing one of Angella's earrings. THE PROMISE THEME'S TRIUMPHANT FULL RETURN! DYGIILYIAHSPJTOPS! "I think I just ran out of reaction battery, guys." Legitimately fair. Cry-laughing is the best reaction to "Hello, I'm your dad." "You did this. You saved Etheria." Hey now, let's be real -- *Catra* saved Etheria. 😄 If she hadn't told Adora she loved her, Adora wouldn't have mad it back. Thank *you* for taking us on this journey with you, and not giving up the journey. Please, please don't pass up on reading "Don't Go" -- https://archiveofourown.org/works/24280306 -- widely taken to be 'fanfic' written by ND Stevenson himself, set between "Save the Cat" and "Taking Control"; not *outright* confirmed, but heavily, heavily hinted to be. Likewise, his "Five Years" retrospective comic -- https://www.imfineimfine.com/p/five-years -- that gives a glimpse of where everyone might be five years later. Glad the journey isn't quite over yet, too; very excited to see the duo-reaction with your wife! It's been a true delight to watch along with you. 💖

Alba

I am so glad you decided to keep watching Sher-Ra despite the fact that it was underperforming. This show got me through the pandemic and I would watch it on video call with my best friend, reacting and commenting together, and your reaction took me back to that. This series was also one of the first positive queer media representations I got to watch, if not the first (especially in animation and in a way that wasn't solely centered around the characters' queer identity being their only trait), so this show has a special place in my heart. All this to say, this show and your reaction mean so much to me, and I am glad you enjoyed it just as much as I did when I first watched it as a teenager.

Jonathan Schroeder

Unfortunately I can't take credit for it, as it's a pretty common quote within the she ra fandom. But I had had to make sure Mortius saw it because it's hilarious.

Ilove_Jaya

47:30 Lonnie, Rogelio and Kyle are raising Hordak's little baby demon. They fattened him up!

Ilove_Jaya

I loved going on this journey with you. These reactions are amazing and I'm so glad I was around to see them come out one after another. Goodbye, She Ra reactions, you will never be forgotten!

Ilove_Jaya

I really hope Mortius reacts to Amphibia! I think he would love it and it would perform that much better!

Nagging_Nagrom

This was such a journey to watch the show and watch your reaction along with it. Your reaction was amazing, and the show was amazing. Also your cosplay was magnificent.

Jamie

Im sobbing 😭

React Eons

Yes. That was the correct reaction to Catradora’s love confession.

Lea

Shadow weaver died doing what she loved: traumatising catra

Nanner

I love that you’re basically cosplaying as King Micah cosplaying as She-Ra 🤣🥰🤩

Leo

Please consider reacting to AJ Michalkas cover of "Warriors" (the intro song). It's truly amazing xD

LunarBlaze

I absolutely love the Shadow Weaver sacrifice because of just how sad they managed to make the scene feel, while also not making it feel anywhere close to a redemption for Shadow Weaver, and i think a lot of that is amplified by the other two sacrifices we see in the show and how Shadow Weaver's compares to them. Comparing to Catra's sacrifice in 'Corridors', the most important difference when it comes to the topic of redemption (in my opinion at least) is that Catra actually survives after all. I've never liked self sacrifice being portrayed as an effective means of redeeming oneself, because i think an important part of redemption is actually facing your past and a *continuous* effort to be better, and even disregarding that, Shadow Weaver just being gone with one final selfless(?) act is just further traumatizing Catra and Adora who may very well be plagued by questions of 'why' with no way of getting closure. Now the other sacrifice is that of Angella of course. Of course, with Angella it had nothing to do with redemption, but they are both some kind of maternal figure/caretaker to Adora (and Catra for SW) and the important difference here is their final words and what they say about how truly selfless their sacrifices were (or were not), and im just gonna quote a video essay by Five by Five Takes here (they have a whole playlist of those and they're all excellent): "'You're welcome' is about what they owe to her, 'take care of each other' is about what they owe to each other".

LunarBlaze

Also, a really nice callback/parallel that im not sure if you picked up on it (would be understandable with all the emotions): Catra, with a dying Adora in her arms: "You can't give up. You've never given up on anything, not even on me" Adora, standing in front of a chipped Catra fighting Prime's control: "You've never listened to anyone in your life, are you really going to start now?"

Robin

Is it just me or is the audio bad? Like his mic is way louder than the show

AdoveX

I first watched this series a few years ago and I loved it, but it kind of moved to the back of my head for a while. I think I never fully apreciated how great this show was but thanks to you I do now . So I must say thank you Mortius, your reactions reignited my love for this show and going through it with you has been an amazing experience.

Omegastar

Thank you for reacting to She-Ra when the show is not even available through legal channels. You help keep the community alive. Thank you so much!

Angel eyes

Where has that happened as well?😆

Nocturne

The last two episodes are such a wild roller coaster that it feels like it warps time lol. I rewatched them in preparation for this and they feel so much longer than they are. The Hordak and Adora scene somehow always gets me.

Phoenix_mercury

Also adora dying in catra's arms Vs the reverse upon catra's rescue

josi

OMG NOT THE SHERA COSPLAY BYEEE, YOU LOOK AMAZING, THANK YOU FOR HAVING THIS CARE, ATTENTION, AND AFFECTION FOR THIS SERIES ENOUGH TO EVEN MAKE A COSPLAY. Thank you for all the love you've given to this series over all these months. All those times I've spent waiting for your reactions to this series, to every episode of this show that means so much to me and was literally a source of comfort when I discovered I was a lesbian years ago... Watching your reactions to it has been one of the most enjoyable and heartwarming experiences I've ever had watching someone react to any piece of media. Thank you for being you, thank you for all your thoughts and silliness. I will eternally miss Mortius Plus Shera reactions ❤️

josi

The best reactor in Shera ever, thank you Mortius, you're amazing!

Katie

not catra begging adora to stay after feeling left behind buy her so many times and the one time she stays with catra it ends up saving everyone. Just chefs kiss.

SweetCandle

I think removing the mask was sort of "I. Am. Light Spinner." (snaps finger)

CadenFara

"We won in the end." I was not expecting that and that was about the fourth time i started tearing up this episode. Amazing job with the entire series.

Ryan Anderson

I've watched the series through probably half a dozen times now and I bawl and the end (And several points along the way) every time... I don't know why this series hits me so hard but it does, even though I'm not anywhere close to the target demographic. Part of it is just how well done it is and part of it is just how much hope and joy it has in such a cynical world... Thank you so much for reacting to it, I had literally never watched a reaction video before I saw that your She-ra videos weren't getting the views they deserved, and after watching a couple on YouTube I was hooked and got the Patreon Collection, and it's been a joy going on this ride with you.
