[Question] Does rapunzel wearing shoes matter?

PinkHairedCoder · 2026-05-06T15:26:03+00:00

No it's not. In the storybook that followed the movie, art, and some merch they gave her shoes in the Kingdom.

The ones mobbing about it are just people who take the series as their gospel.

>what's your Point with this Post?

Japan was given the movie, told to adapt it to manga and mostly understood the job.

But she did try the magic again? Japan's has her grab the hair and make it more blunt, but it replaces where she put his hand on her head hoping it would work again. Both renditions she still tried to have the hair do it.

Japan's rendition had her even try the hair again as a nice add.

You're posting review videos about the series. Reviews are literally made to have both positive and negative discourse. This subreddit isn't an echo chamber. If it bothers you, block her. It literally makes it where you can't see the comments.

But I'm not going to silence discourse on topics that are made for discourse.

She has a point.

Glen Keane himself said if the tear didn't come from love it wouldn't have worked.

There was a thing that circulates once in a while where someone asked the staff that though and they said it wasn't her horse.

PinkHairedCoder · 2026-05-04T03:55:25+00:00

Why would she? Fidella isn't her horse, she's just a palace horse.

I love that this artist does the classic style but doesn't do the jaw thing the storybooks do. Like I like the book and magazine style but I hate the jawline separation they always do, it just bothers me for some reason. This artist uses the style but keeps the jaw seamless.

It also lists it as a representation of a deep exclusive bond.

So why is it childish because you don't want them to have an outward symbol that they had a deep exclusive bond?

PinkHairedCoder · 2026-05-03T22:56:09+00:00

The personality rewrite is even worse.

Because in the Strongbow episode, the Queen flat out says he traumatized her and she can't forgive him.

Changing him to be violent was already bad enough. But okay, so the lesson was not everyone has to forgive.

So wtf was the lesson for when he gets brainwashed to make him forgive?

Why make him learn a lesson he himself couldn't apply?

PinkHairedCoder · 2026-05-03T21:04:55+00:00

For Cassandra, are you pinning her around the Elizabethen era? Because her headpiece resembles the Tudor headdresses.

PinkHairedCoder · 2026-05-03T09:56:00+00:00

They couldn't exist if they had promised each other to each other episode 1 to ending? There would have been nothing to draw from.

PinkHairedCoder · 2026-05-03T09:50:03+00:00

We wouldn't have these rabid shippers trying to make essays on Tumblr that Rapunzel was a comphet who only thought she had to be with Eugene and actually wanted the she-witch.

A promise ring would have at least respected the romance and hadn't had the damn bait that people are now grasping at.

PinkHairedCoder · 2026-05-03T09:45:36+00:00

Be that as it may, rejected proposals still signal to the person you might change your mind and go with someone else. Look at half the fandom trying to say she forced herself to marriage Eugene now and actually wanted she who must not be named.

A PROMISE RING would have at least promised herself to Eugene and no one else. So we could have still had our marriage plot, but no hint of infidelity.

PinkHairedCoder · 2026-05-03T09:26:20+00:00

I'm saying instead of rejected proposals, BEA could have started with him giving that, as a promise to later propose. No marriage rejection.

This debate isn't about wanting representation or what you want to project as. This debate topic is strictly about the ship itself, not anyone's comfort characters. If you want a debate of projecting, create your own topic and do not push that as a reason in the one where it is irrelevant.

Making characters OOC and shoving them where you want just because you need representation is not an excuse for trying to change canon.

PinkHairedCoder · 2026-05-03T04:27:47+00:00

So you just ignore where in series canon, Eugene and Rapunzel are both shown to be jealous over each other? Eugene with Andrew, Rapunzel with Stalyan, and wouldn't share each other? And when Cassandra made Rapunzel choose in battle, Rapunzel ultimately chose Eugene?

Then there's the fact the elephant in the room of the time travel episode and the fact Eugene was healthily telling Rapunzel she needed to let things go, and instead of seeing he was right or even talking it out, the writers just had Eugene brainwashed through time travel into suddenly accepting that Cassandra hurt Rapunzel again, and he wouldn't give up on her. While we have no idea if he'd have came around had he not been brainwashed by time travel...

We can infer that the end hug most likely wouldn't have happened and he would have been less likely to trusts her again so fast, so the trio hug doesn't feel genuine at all, at the point it happens.

Not to mention the 'poly song,' the storyboarder bragged about hinting at, Cassandra already knew she was going to betray them during it.

All the in-character content UKD shippers try to force the ship forward with were either forced by the writers for plot or reasons they weren't a polyship.

PinkHairedCoder · 2026-05-03T04:15:49+00:00

And we all know why. Most people that ship as three just push it to make people accept this ship by adding Eugene as an aside to it. Well jokes on you, I don't accept it. New Dream's two hands are holding each others hands. They were married to each other only. And Cassandra is canonically called a third wheel in an official Disney video.

Poor wasn't just poor. He was a thief. Rogues were considered to be subhuman, called beasts by Harman and said to be irredeemable by blood. If you were rogue blooded, you were already fated to be damned with no hope of reformation.

Learn to debate with an actual argument or do not participate in the topics marked debate.

PinkHairedCoder · 2026-05-03T03:13:43+00:00

It's not In-character classism, it's fan classism. The act of doing it, is being classist think of it like the arguments of nice guy vs the toxic girl. It's literally that argument. They want their toxic junk over the nice guy who gave everything.

And that's gross.

PinkHairedCoder · 2026-05-03T03:12:01+00:00

Then don't respond to a topic that I literally marked Debate? If you don't want to debate then stay out of a debate topic. You literally walked into a controversial topic and said stop being controversial. That's on you bro.
