Anti Shadow And Bone - Tumblr Posts

Yes the way they included the crows in Shadow and Bone was stupid, but imagine how much better it would be if they just. Made them all 15.

Everything else is the same (minus the erasure of Kaz and Inej's trauma because fuck the writers), the characters are all just closer to their cannon ages at this point in the story. Instead of being ridiculously incompetent adults, they're a group of incredibly confident and wildly chaotic children who are somehow pulling this off with, like, 3 kruge and duct tape.

Just imagine how much better the Kaz and Darkling face-off would be, or Jesper on the Fold train ride, or Inej stabbing the Darkling, if they were a gaggle of angry children.

I highly doubt sab is going to get the green light for season 3 or anything else beyond season 2

They honestly murdered Nikolai’s character. This character is being the only monarch who cares about his country and his people. The whole reason he created Sturmhond, the whole reason he’s a privateer, the whole reason he works for the Darkling and kidnappings Alina. This entire character is based on his love for his country and him doing anything he can to make it better for his people. It’s the whole reason I fell in love with his character, I love that he was an inventor and a strategist prince with military experience, everything you look for in a leader. And now you’re telling me that he has to be convinced to save Ravka?! It was Alina in the books who need to be convinced to save the country. Don’t ruin his entire character just to make Alina look better. No matter what you do you won’t make me like her and now they made me hate the only protagonist I liked. Fuck you.

He was the perfect balance between Alina and the Darkling. And the only hero I liked. He should be the one ruling Ravka not Zoya, he was the perfect man for it, I can’t believe LB threw away his life goal, the everything he worked for away just to have Zoya “can’t control her anger” Nazyalensky on the throne, it’s fucking ridiculous. Like Nikolai had a whole plan for democracy. 

Yk im gonna say I like the Darkling because he’s hot just to piss of the antis when that’s not even the top five of the reasons I like him

Look I don’t like Zoya but I do like Sujaya Dasgupta

I’ll see y’all tomorrow

I haven’t even watched the show and I gotta say what the heck is happening?? I wanna say I’m surprised but I’m not

I still can’t with Nikolai’s character, I’m on episode 4 and I can’t stand him, he feels like a comic relief, an arrogant prince who happens to be a good person. And while his whole plan about hiring the crows was strategic, it made no sense, it just seemed like an excuse for the crows kidnapping Alina and than selling her into slavery and it didn’t work because they still didn’t know why they were kidnapping her. And than he sets a trap for her to board his ship and has her convince him to save his own country like that wasn’t already his plan, it worked in books because he works for the Darkling but in the show it does not. I see no reason as to why he didn’t reveal himself before, in the books he had to drag Alina to the country and than reveal himself so she couldn’t say no but in the show she was ready, so there was no reason for him to hide his identity. And he said that he didn’t reveal it before because she wouldn’t come but she’s still with him after he revealed himself. So everything was pointless anyway.

And the fact that The Darkling was just sitting around doing nothing, nothing that contributed to the plot anyway, is just ridiculous. It’s like Alina and the Darkling switched roles.

Episode six and I gotta say the Grisha deserve better than these fools as their savior

Please tell me Mal gets that tattoo, that’s the only thing that would make this better

The fact that Zoya, Nina, Jesper and Tolya were able to walk around Shu Han without fearing capture is just ridiculous, like did they forget the part where Shu Han cuts up Grisha to experiment on them?

MAL?! STURMHOND?! I would’ve had Malina endgame at this point

I cried, literally the only people I cried for. They stole the show for me. I hated every single one of the heroes for what happened to them. They were just fitting for their freedoms and their right as people and they were murdered and looked at as the bad guys for. I knew they were done for when the crows showed up.

Yes that’s what being Grisha means, to be blessed. It’s not like it means a death sentence or anything, why would it mean that? Grisha aren’t being hunted, killed, experimented on, or sold as slaves in Ketterdam.

While we’re on this, I don’t like the crows in the show and I don’t care for them in the books. I literally cried when they showed up here.

Yeah for the worst

Can’t believe people on Twitter hate Fruzsi (the tide maker on Darkling’s side) couldn’t be me

Lockwood & Co deserve a second season more than Shadow and bone deserves a third
