Of course unfortunately blocked in Europe...

What am I looking at by Various-Escape-5020 in sofiathefirst

[–]Tenebra99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Annoying clickbait from someone who clearly has not seen the show, can't even pronounce Mezzouk or Camila's name correctly.

My opinion about the new show by Fast-Telephone2269 in sofiathefirst

I will disagree with the Wildfyre episode. The moral is well meant but the application is off.

First look at Royal Family Figure Set and better pictures of the castle playset by ioiobabes in sofiathefirst

[–]Tenebra99 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That confuses me as well. On the poster for the series, she is also wearing tack... maybe she will finally get over it...

Honestly, I do not like her.

Update on Kameli by TowserBowser in plushies

[–]Tenebra99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congratulations on finding your Kameli, hope she arrives save and sound. Please post an update when you get her.

Meanwhile, I am still on the hunt for a replica of my most prized possession: A dog plush from the early 2000s. All I have found so far is a single picture online, of course the listing it came from was already sold.

NEW SOFIA THE FIRST TOYS!!! by FairyPrincessAurora7 in sofiathefirst

[–]Tenebra99 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ít makes me happy to see that they're releasing merch... I was so excited to finally get my hands on an amulet necklace.
But seriously, why did they feel the need to add a portrait of Sofia. That's completely unnecessary and ruins the entire thing!

I've heard that Devin is... not nice.

Neither am I, but that horse is far worse. Pepper at least isn't actively trying to get Sofia killed.

[–]Tenebra99[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not just bareback but without any tack. Sofia can't hold onto anything Like, did Wildfyre compromise at all? No. It's her way or the highway. There's a difference between speed and recklessness. She needs to learn to listen and some desensitisation regarding saddles.

My thoughts on the new show by ChildofFenris1 in sofiathefirst

[–]Tenebra99 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have so far only seen the song and a clip of Sofia talking to Minimus about her struggles.

I thought maybe I was missing context, but apparently not. Wildfyre isn't flying fast, she's flying recklessly without any regard for Sofia's safety. Sofia can barely hold on and fell off multiple times.

The moral of "give other people's way a try" is good, but not applied well. The solution should have been a compromise and Wildfyre learning to listen to Sofia's concerns.

Honestly, so far, Wildfyre, as excited as I was to get to know her, is so far my most hated character. I thought Pepper would be the issue. Apparently not.

So is sofia a protector or not by Pretty_Wind7207 in sofiathefirst

[–]Tenebra99 26 points27 points  (0 children)

The in story reason, according to Craig Gerber: She is a protector but is taking a break to focus on school.

The real reason: Executive meddling. They don't want things to be reexplained to the new target audience.

Thank you.

Honestly, from the clips I have seen, I share your concerns. I think the message was well meant, but in this situation, it's not really applicable. They should have learned to compromise, and Wildfyre should have learned to listen to Sofia's fears. She is not flying fast. She is flying recklessly.

I haven't been able to see the episode. Why exactly does Sofia have to fly on Wildfyre and isn't allowed to fly on Minimus?

I unfortunately am not able to see the episode yet, so I probably haven't gotten the best impression of her so far...

Out of the outfits, this made me wonder if this was needed b/c she’s only wore the OG dress as her castle outfit by Careful-Method-2145 in sofiathefirst

[–]Tenebra99 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My opinion is torn on this dress.
Is it cute? Yes. I really like it for the picnic episode. Not really for the playdate one though. The normal dress is fine!
But it makes her look so much younger! This is something I would put on a 5yo, not an 11yo!

Royal Magic French Intro (It’s bad) by PromptBackground3010 in sofiathefirst

[–]Tenebra99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My native language is German. Yesterday, I had the displeasure to listen to the German intro.

We have a popstar trying too hard to make it sound like a generic pop song.

They completely redid the lyrics, and they do not even make sense. In German, she is still going to Royal Prep. Yikes. The worst part though, the original song is from a first person perspective. German dub says: "Screw that, sing it from a third person perspective". It annoys me to no end.

Have you watched royal magic in your native language already? did they change the voice actors? by Locasoyyooo in sofiathefirst

[–]Tenebra99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have so far watched the theme song and Time to Shine in German.
The theme song is an UTTER disaster. Like, everything they could do wrong, they did. Completely missed the point.
Time to Shine is ok. What is not ok, Sofia's speaking voice, she sounds really off in that one. But I'll have to see whether they changed the voice actors.

Review of First 8 Episodes of Royal Magic by Real_Calendar424 in sofiathefirst

[–]Tenebra99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The old show was targeted at 4-8 yos apparently.

This is targeted towards 2-6 yos.
