you seem to completely ignore the fact that my biggest issue is belos had no way of knowing this conversation was even taking place. the fact that they didn't is bad writing.ģ. he JUST got to the isles, even if he stalked king, THEY SHOULD HAVE SHOWN OR ALLUDED TO IT. even if we do entertain the idea that belos knew he was a clawthorne and he (again, offscreen) saw puppets and pieced together everyone was puppeted, he still never saw king with the collector at all to know it was a clawthorne hanging out with him in the first place. if he did know this, it happened offscreen and was not alluded to, THIS IS NOT GOOD WRITING!!!Ģ. he knew the clawthorne family JUST ENOUGH to manipulate lilith. hell, if he knew ANYTHING about king, king would be dead. he knew king lived WITH eda, but he didn't know anything else. no, belos did not know king was in the clawthorne family. but since you opened the discussion, allow me to make a whole post on the topic, starting with a numbered list.ġ. i said there are very real plotholes within part one of this SERIES FINALE episode, yes, but there are A LOT of counterarguments you made to things i never said. i have made several critical posts about the collector, but they were not the focus. the owl house the owl house spoilers watching and dreaming spoilers emperor belos philip wittebaneĬONSIDER: the previous post was primarily about the handling of the series main antagonist, philip wittebane. well it's self explanatory, especially when you remove the mask.īut this bearded adult human Belos with no scars that fans associate with the guy who tricks Luz and Lilith in his official debut? Belos, you really think that people will buy your act now? Honestly, it's quite sloppy, just like your melting corpse.Īnd it's no wonder you made a lot of Wittebane lore fans disappointed and unsatisfied. Monster Belos is just pitiful and makes you want to put him out of his misery. Old Philip Wittebane is a senile grandpa who needs to young people to guide him through the streets. Unmasked Emperor Belos, when he was talking to Hunter about the Human Realm, felt more sympathetic because of his scars and tired eyes. This is ironically the least pitiful human form he could have taken. He believes himself to be incorruptible and pure when in reality, it's the least convincing glamour he could have come up with. Why Flapjack has a scar.īy choosing undamaged Philip Wittebane, Belos has shown he has learned nothing at all. They represent stories of our personal failures, trauma and desires to better ourselves in spite or because of it. He never learns that it's the imperfections and vulnerabilities that make us humans. Just perfect Philip Wittebane, as if nothing as ever happened to him. With no form of deformity or mutilation on his ears. These forms invoke vulnerability, regrets, and thus sympathy, making us more inclined to believe that maybe there's a chance for Belos to get redemption.īut instead, Belos chose bearded Philip Wittebane. He could have chosen old man Belos, weary and tired from old age with scars and cut ears. After all, a child is prone to learning from their mistakes than an adult. He could have chosen the form of a child Philip Wittebane, mimicking the likes of the Collector. But he fails to learn about evoking sympathy. He chooses it to invoke sympathy towards Luz, since this was form he remember Luz idolizing over all those centuries ago. Now here is something ironic about Belos choosing the Philip Wittebane form.
