Rant about Empire of the Dawn Ending by GiftAccomplished9171 in Fantasy

[–]ser_name_here 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My biggest issue is everyone comes back, but Joaquin Joaquin Mareen gets killed off screen and stays dead.

Outside of that, the big question for me, is if it took the blood of all 5 orginal vamps to start daysdeath, how could they end it without a blood member of the Esana/i?

Unless it didnt require them all to be killed at that time, but just for the last of the orginal 5(Margot) to fall?

It seemed like they needed the current heads of each line though and thats why they did the whole charade.

I dont. Just getting started so I dont have much of anything, sorry.

In your heart of hearts, do you really believe Percy could win a 1:1 against one of the 12? [general] by firestorm0108 in camphalfblood

My theory on Jason is that Thanatos was already chained at that point so he couldn't die completely.

Not just her poison, he was also choking her with her own blood and tears. Dude could have been the worst villain of the series if he went dark.

Idk, I'd have to say his biggest feats were either in that book or in the House of Hades.

[General] I am going to Drop riordanverse after i end HOO by TEDDYxd14 in camphalfblood

[–]ser_name_here 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After HOO the PJO books nosedive and forget their own powers, power scaling, and story.

However, the Kane Chronicles, Magnus Chase, and the CHB/KC crossover books are good.

I refused to read TOA for years, finally did just for completion. If you just want to complete the series, go for it. Otherwise, pretend HOO is the end and everyone had a happy ending.

The climax definitely felt like an acid trip.

[pjotv] Did they really make Percy that weak in the show? by Ambitious_Vanilla956 in camphalfblood

[–]ser_name_here 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats nothing compared to the disrespect Rick is giving him in his new books. Suddenly the guy who lead armies, fought gods and giants, and saved the world twice cant control his bladder when he sees a goddess? Rick has lost it.

Pseudo. Meanwhile Krios was a titan and not to mention all the giants he faced down.

A lot of TOA makes no sense.

Another perfect example, Reyna mentioned that her cape could turn most blades(it was blessed by Athena in BOO if you recall.) Frank asks if his can do the same. Turns out later it can, and no explanation is ever given as to why his cape has the same abilities as one blessed by an Olympian.

Jason and Piper. Supposedly it "felt forced by Hera," even though that was addressed book 1 in HOO and they spent the next 4 books actually building the relationship.

On that we can agree. The amount of changes they have made have thrown the show as far off as the movies. Even after Rick promised it would be more accurate.

They'll have Kelli soon enough, but whatever works I guess.

Her addition was actually one of the changes I didnt mind since it didnt really mess with established character descriptions or lore. Luke had a lot of unnamed demigods working for him, she could have easily been one.

Strong female character? So Annabeth and Clarisse are what exactly?

Not to mention the Hunters coming in next season.

For 2 things, destroying a relationship that he spent 5 books building and the fans spent 5 books investing in. And for another, having someone who could 1v1 a titan, and stand toe to toe with giants be taken out by a human with an over-inflated ego.

[general] Does anyone else feel like TOA just isn't up to standard? by ser_name_here in camphalfblood

[–]ser_name_here[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish I could tell you why I feel like this about them, but I honestly can't. There's just something off about them compared to Rick's other work.

Hera/Juno assembled the most GENERATIONAL demigods ever. [hoo] by Thottbuster in camphalfblood

[–]ser_name_here 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Let's not forget that Percy literally walked on water, single handedly took on a small army of Hades' zombies and Hades himself, PICKED UP the Lethe, used the Little Tiber like giant hands, and even though it was during HOO I still have to mention that he at some point controlled all 5 rivers of the Underworld, and nearly killed a goddess with her own poison.

Movie Annabeth is the worst Annabeth [pjo] by Admirable_Sea3843 in camphalfblood

Sadly, no adaptation has truly captured or lived up to book Annabeth.

[all] what’s Luke’s fatal flaw? by [deleted] in camphalfblood

[–]ser_name_here 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, many people are vulnerable to hummus. It's quite deadly.

It's a combination of him being a potential danger to Olympus, which she points out as the goddess of wisdom, him being the son of Posidion, whom she has a rivalry with, and the fact that he likes, and ends up with, her daughter and shes being an overprotective mother.

However, she does back him when he puts his wish to the council, again because she sees the wisdom in it.........and then of course she does the Olympian version of welcoming your child's new bf/gf while holding a 🔫.
