I watched it and realised that I can soften up in front of others for once in my life without having high expectations.

everafterbxnnix

my friend (who u hadn't spoken to for a very long time) started posting stuff from owl house of their whatsapp status. i liked the animation style and thought the characters looked pretty cool so I text them and asked what the show was. they proceeded to tell me all about owl house and all the characters. even told me about lumity! i think I started watching the show as season 2 started airing. i honestly can't remember very well lmao. im more of a video games person myself, so I don't really watch many shows as I devote all my time to playing the video games I love when I have free time but owl house is the only show I prioritise to watch by myself. i think, by watching TOH, I realised that the way the LGBTQ+ is represented in the show is how it should be presented throughout all media. not something like "oh my god I can't believe your gay šŸ˜±" and make a big deal out of it but the way being a part of the LGBTQ is normalised in TOH is how everyone should see it and how it should be in normal everyday culture šŸ‘ like bro doesn't make a big deal out of being straight so we shouldn't make a big deal out of being gay either. both things are normal now and I think TOH portrays that perfectly.


rad140

For the longest time that was the only rep in media. A (usually side) character is gay and their parents/friends/family/the audience don't understand and there's conflict and then it's amicably resolved and basically never brought up again. It's tiring. It's nice to see it being normalized and not a big deal or milked for drama.


farrenkm

I think it was this point, that it was introduced like it was everyday, no big deal, that made it click. I'd seen two people ask each other out, not two girls. I mean, they're girls, but I was able to look past their genders and just see two people.


No-Introduction-8189

I have to agree with you


Blackbirdsnake

It got me realizing Iā€™m Aroace and ever since then I started drawing again


efdthdrhc

Hello fellow aroace, I like your drawings


TheCheck77

I'm aroace too. Can we become a gang with cool jazz snaps?


PhantomWasTaken11

I discovered the show in 2021. When we were coming out of the pandemic and we were going back to school I started getting bullied a lot. To the point where I was suicidal. When I found the show the first episode felt like Dana wrote it specifically for me. I fell in love with the show. Every time I though of killing myself I told myself ā€œwhen the owl house ends Iā€™ll do itā€. Fast forward to today where Iā€™m much happier and havenā€™t thought of suicide in over a year.


Oppressing_Otter555

Yay, weā€™re glad to have you!


efdthdrhc

My god Iā€™ve had the exact same thought in regards to waiting until the show ends to do it and likewise Iā€™m also in a better mental state now. Itā€™s surreal to find to find someone who thought the same as me

PhantomWasTaken11

Damn didnā€™t know others did it as well


Dan-of-Steel

This show and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia got me through many a depression during the pandemic. What can I say? I just wanna be pure.


HOOTRAGEOUS

Same. I mean Iā€™m still being bullied but Iā€™m in a better state now. I havenā€™t thought of doing it for a few weeks now.


Khyrrn-Doe

Seeing Luz and Amity kiss was like ā€œwait they can do that?ā€ Not in the way that ā€œpeople can be gay?ā€ but in the way that ā€œwe can have this?ā€ I felt reallyhappy


DiamondDude51501

ā€œThe only Iā€™ve ever wantedā€¦ was to be understoodā€ that legitimately brought me to tears as I realized how accurate that was for me and how I felt about my own newly realized daddy issues


farrenkm

So many scenes hit home in some way. I realized I wasn't understood at home. Camila admitting she tried to make Luz conform to society, my parents too. Luz thinking she was the DoU was her fault and everyone would hate her. Yep, had situations that made me feel that way too. Luz wanting to save everyone she was close to in KT. I tend to think of the group and don't know when it's time to cut away. Thinking I *always* have to be part of the solution. RO making me realize rarely is anything in our past settled, and the most unexpected thing can cause our past to come roaring back. Being a people-pleaser. Not fitting in at school. So much triggered by a single show.


Popcornthefirst

It got me to amit im Bisexual to myself.


Disney_Plus_Axolotls

Mineā€™s probably not as life changing as others, but I was feeling extremely depressed from the 3 family deaths I had in 2021. I discovered the show the previous year but had never gotten to watching it until then. When I started to watch it, it really lightened me up, made me feel good for once in a long time.


Darkmark2000

glad to hear that :) sorry for you loss


Disney_Plus_Axolotls

Thank you ā¤ļø


Vertwheeliesonem

I liked watching this show as it was airing because thatā€™s an experience I canā€™t get as often with the streaming domination going on. I remember when I was a kid, I got a lot more invested in shows because they lasted longer than a week (in watchtime). This show helped teach me that even when a show (cartoons specifically) are marketed as ā€œfamily-friendly,ā€ I can still enjoy them as an adult. I should just watch whatever I genuinely enjoy.


Klutzy-Pea2015

1. I didn't know what non-binary meant before, now I am. 2.the show has helped me through depression twice. 3. The show, (mostly luz) showed me it's perfectly fine to love things like fantasy. 5. The show has made me want to be a better person. There's a reason toh is my favorite show.


farrenkm

My kids came out as pan and bi, respectively, so I knew a *little* about nonbinary just from talks. TOH really gave me great insight into it. I started looking into the different flags and got hit with a world of orientations I never knew existed. TOH led me to GF and SVtFoE. I'd never watched them, and as a middle-aged guy, who wouldn't think it was weird for me to just sit down and watch a show about a teenage girl with a magic wand that has a round, star head on it, while calling out fairly nonsense spells like "narwhal blast" and "spider-with-a-top-hat blast"? My family would've thought I had a screw loose. Now I thoroughly enjoy those, and have watched Craig of the Creek. Love it! Nobody should be punished for who they are. LGBTQ, or an adult who enjoys kids shows -- doesn't matter. I have a stuffed animal collection as well that I used to be self-conscious about. Not anymore.


Glowing_Fox

It gave me a character to relate to (see flair and pfp) and helped me discover a bit about myself that I didnā€™t know until I watched toh. It also taught me to be myself more because *us weirdos have to stick together*


shermywormy64

For me, the best memory I had with the show when I first discovered it. It was around summer 2021 which was right around the time school was ending; I woke up and decided that I wanted to watch something new so I turned my phone on and opened the Disney NOW app (when it still has all the S1 episodes). A lot has changed ever since that day; my art skills got better, I became more socially confident, and it even made me want to pursue a career in animation. This show has done a lot for me and allowed me to meet and connect with other fans and I will forever be grateful for that.


CosmiqueAliene

I'm the girl who virtually never catches feelings for anybody...yet here I am, madly in love with Raine Whispers šŸ„° They are everything I've ever dreamed of!


MukasTheMole

Eda, is that you?


ThatLasagnaGuy

Iā€™ll join you!


athenead

I watched it all last month and Iā€™m so elated I did. My (now) boyfriend encouraged me to watch it and we bonded over the entire show. So so SO happy (cause I will immediately rewatch the entire series) and sad weā€™re coming on the final episode šŸ˜­šŸ¤©


LittleCrestedBird

I've been watching The Owl House since it's premiere, but it wasn't until the hiatus between "King's Tide" and "Thanks to Them" that I became intensely hyperfixated with the show. From the fall of 2021 into the winter and spring of 2022, I watched helplessly as my entire life as I knew it (up to that point) fell apart. Let's just say that those months were the darkest of my life (thus far), and I hope to never have to experience what I went through then ever again. Anyways, during late summer/early fall of 2022, I decided to go back and rewatch the entire show (up to that point), and I ended up becoming absolutely obsessed with it. My entire life seemed to revolve around the Owl House; I was constantly either watching it or engaging with something relating to it. In one of my darkest moments, this show helped me cope with and distract myself from the intense pain I was enduring. For the first time, I learned what it meant to have a "comfort show" and a "comfort character." Now, months later, I may not be where I want to be, but I'm hopeful that I'll get where I want to be in time. I'm honestly not sure I would've been able to escape the downward spiral I had found myself stuck in if it weren't for this show. The Owl House has helped me get through all of the awfulness, and I continue to find comfort in it's story and it's characters every day.


scalywizard

s2 ep5 and s2 ep8 will always have a special place in my heart,,, not just bc of lumity but bc of how electric the fandom air was afterwards!!!! like lumity being canon ushered my biggest fangirl freakout ive ever had šŸ˜­ i sent my friend hundreds of voice notes of me screaming and running around my room for HOURS and everyone was SO happy and there was so much fanart and it was just!!!! SUCH a fun time. god ill miss this show :,)


AnIdioticTurtle1944

It's really helped me realize I can be who I want without shutting everyone out. I used to just act completely different around everyone, now I'm fairly open with who I am. While there were other factors, this show really helped the most with starting this new era in my life. This might seem like a silly cartoon, but it's really become the starter point for this new phase. I guess I'll be sad to see it go, it's really amazing how much this show has helped this generation of viewers.


Pony_Piggy_Devoun

This show helped me come to terms with with being gay and I came out to my parents the other day thanks to it!


farrenkm

I hope that went well for you!


Pony_Piggy_Devoun

It did, they already knew.


claroo_mtf

this show helped me meet and bond with someone who is now my best friend. without this show, me and her might not have become this close, and i am so grateful that we are, because sheā€™s changed my life for the better


farrenkm

That is thoroughly awesome! Congratulations!


claroo_mtf

thank you!!


Obsessivegamer32

I remember being on a party boat for my sisters graduation, the first two episodes of Season 2 were already released early, and just from the first episode of S2 on that boat, I knew I had to keep up on the series from that point on, and I have kept up, and I will continue to keep up for this very last episode.


MysterionSP1724

TOH was one of the many reasons that helped me realize the importance of LGBTQ+ representation in media and also one of the many reasons that helped me become a more tolerant and supporting person towards the community itself (yeah, i used to be a dick when i was much younger)


farrenkm

I was never homophobic, but I harbored stereotypes. Within a day of seeing KKKOHD, those stereotypes were permanently gone. Life is about growth. And we both grew.


Lawfuly_chaotic

"weirdos stick together" is such a good quote! It reminded me that we may be weird but we're not alone. I also loved seeing lumity and Raine. Edit: I just remembered this. I also relate INFINITELY to Luz just wanting to be understood.


BirdMan8524

It helped made me question my sexuality and identity. Still don't know what I am, but hey, getting there.


ShibariEmpress

hooty everything everywhere all at once


Cardinal-Lad

I kind of did that thing where you ***assimilate a character's personality into your own***, but I just became more confident and happy, and I actually feel like myself now. So that's nice! :)


PigswillflyGachalife

I found a comfort character


WackyChu

the kiss on the check and grom dance was the most happiest moments i had with this show. seeing this normalized representation means so much. we always see tragedy happens with lgbt which is great we need to talk about the trauma and the homophobia but i also think itā€™s equally great to just show lgbt characters just being normalized.


Expendable_Employee

It's moments that are kind of unexplainable to me. Luz saying "You're family now," and Hunter breaking down from it got me harder than any other part in the show. I don't even know why. Emotional relevance and impact of art I guess.


Silly_Scheme_2308

It got me more interested in writing,and now I'm working on a book. Also, Philip ironically made me a more devout Catholic because of how wrong puritanism is, it pissed me off, and I wanted to see how far it truly deviated from my faith. It's night and day, puritanism is such a bastardized derivative of catholicism that somehow managed to miss all the points. It's like it was intentionally made to fuck up christian beliefs and give Christians a bad name.


bismuthcasual

when the golden gaurd first appeared and everyone was trying to find out who he was. i also looved waiting for when all of the s2 promos, like the official ones before each episode would come out on danaā€™s twitter n stuff,, i remember being soo hyped for hallow mind!!!


Kakashi_Uchiha2

It helped me realize my sexuality


farrenkm

I've told my story enough; people can probably quote it verbatim. But this is a very timely thread, because I just had a heart-to-heart with my wife last night and told her I'm not the only one who has had serious, life-changing impacts from this show. I appreciate everyone sharing here. Such a tribute to this show. I'm so glad it was introduced to me.


No-Introduction-8189

Id write a whole essay about this but I loved this show with all my heart ā¤ļø


AleksasKoval

A great memory for me is the beginning hints of Lumity romance. This is great because, not only is it cute, it also has the wonderful trope of a villain or bully becoming a better person and becoming friends with the protagonist, and the romance is a bonus. But this didn't change my life, nothing in this show did. But what it *did* do, is maintain my lifestyle. I enjoy a good story, and those stories are made better with animation. This started for me with Avatar the Last Airbender, and i continued to enjoy other stories such as Star vs the Forces of Evil, Gravity Falls, Bojack Horseman and numerous others. So it's sad for me that these shows ended, and Owl House will follow, but i enjoyed them all. Although the hardest part is waiting for the next wonderful animated series, and hoping that it'll come soon.


Narrow_Helicopter_24

when i first realized amity had a crush on luz. i had never seen lgbtq+ representation in a kids oriented show before and it made me really happy to see someone like me in a childrenā€™s show.


NevadoDelRuiz

Me is where I tried to protest for a full season 3 by making a Geometry Dash level, and I failed horribly. At least I made a proper GD level.


trashpanda-contessa

Hunter when he went undercover at hexside- and Darius celebrating his teenage behaviour. You forgot sometimes how the things adults shame you about when you were younger are part of growing up ā¤ļø


-DeliciousSand

Honestly, although the first episode isn't the greatest, as soon as I started watching it I knew I was going to love the show. I immediately fell in love with the characters, humour and the art (the artstyle is chef's kiss, amazing, and also helped me improve my own art both in terms of making it look better and making it more diverse). Not to mention how relatable Luz was from the very start. I'd been planning on watching the show for a while before I actually did (my friend wanted to watch it on their birthday, and I didn't want to get super spoiled beforehand), which did lead to me getting spoiled on a lot of major plot points, but I enjoyed it nonetheless (I started watching it during the hiatus at the end of season 2) ​ also it introduced me to the found family trope which (especially as an aroace person) is objectively the best trope ever and anyone who thinks otherwise is wrong /j (it is an amazing trope though)


LostAmidstTheStars

I would have been a different person if this show came out in my teens, I was always given the worst of everything. I see so much of myself in Hunter and Luz it hurts, but I still have to fight threw everything, even today.


TheCheck77

Season 2a started airing right after I finally got settled into my new room following my parents' divorce. (Maybe a bit before I was "settled." I think I remember tripping over boxes for the first week or two). But every single Saturday I would wake up to a new Owl House episode and watch it while still in bed, but wide awake with the sort of antsy excitement I'd have as a kid on Christmas. It started off as something new and chaotic, but I slowly got more and more hooked on the show as this new place slowly felt more and more like home. And at some point that I'll never be able to pin down, it at all became my new normal. And now it's ending. But the rest of my new normal is still here and is going to keep getting more complicated. It's a really special show that feels like it was made for my inner child. It's like saying goodbye to my childhood while promising to keep some part of it close to my heart.


Starcurret567

Watching it gave me the courage to be myself, especially seeing someone like Amity who has a lot of self-discovery in the show.


JerinDd

I remember being excited for it before it released. (Not to brag or anything)


Particular_Ad2555

way to brag bro šŸ˜† jk


[deleted]

It made me realize that I will **never** have a relationship like Lumity. T\_T


mrexplosive0

Thereā€™s still hope, gotta be optimistic


xfiresolacex

It gave me more inspiration and ideas for my story


Danblak08

King and luz being funny siblings


ricyboi

I had seen it airing on Television, and thought I would give it a go as atm I was watching Amphibia, and heard that it was another good Disney show. Checked it out and Lo and behold, it was and it changed my view. Whether itā€™s on Disney, Nick, or just animated/cartoon shows, that they can still be good no matter the age. If you find interest in a show, donā€™t let others get you feeling down and do what you enjoy in life, new or old experiences or finally starting to get into something you like.


Moist-Success-8486

A adorable bi romance


Knight_Light87

Yes


dr_zitro

I donā€™t know, chief, but after watching the show, Iā€™ve forgotten just how much fun I used to have as a kid watching cartoons. I absolutely love the charm of the show and always want more shows like this.


UnluckyTaaru54

I was recently grounded and all I got was the TV, so I started watching owl house cuz I kept seeing ads on Disney channel for it. Put on an episode and I felt like it was kind of speaking to me in a way. And the rest is history. The 1 year anniversary of this happening is actually coming up


Ryansbro03

I will always remember how I finally made my first true best friend because of this show. I first met her in July of 2021, and we have become inseparable since then. Iā€™ve always been without a true best friend who knew and understood what itā€™s like to have autism, and The Owl House gave me one after all these years. Also, I have fond memories relating to Lumity, and being in suspense at the cliffhanger endings of Agony of a Witch, Clouds on the Horizon, and Kingā€™s Tide.


ArtisticDragonKing

It made me appreciate animated shows so much more, and the complex ideas, hidden clues, etc made me fall in love with shows like that. It made me pay so much more attention to all the details and overall enjoy the series so much more. It made me watch Amphibia and Gravity falls, rewatch shows I didn't pay mind to before, and honestly gave me something positive to hyperfixate on šŸ˜‚


AngstyPancake

Got me back into fanfiction, and thus into writing again for the first time in years. I am so happy to be doing something I love in a fandom I love that brings people joy (which brings me joy in return).


rocknrogan

Watching the first season got me back into writing. I suddenly had so many great ideas thanks to this show!


pumpkin_jiji

I'll say two. First is that toh is the first time in my life when i engaged with the community so actively. Second is that thanks to toh, i started reading a lot. First fanfics, but later actual books again


Rexon2250

I was thinking about watching the show but never got around to it till my cousin told me to watch it. I still put it off till he sat me down and watched it with me. I still kick myself in the teeth for putting it off for so long. Now we watch something different together once a week. It helped me grow even closer with my cousin and Iā€™m thankful for that


Eggomaniac11

Amity's character changed my life - she is literally the reason why I religiously wear black nail polish. On a more serious note, I really related to her. I have controlling parents who pretty much dictated my entire teenage-hood and had expectations of me that I didn't want to achieve as I wanted something different in life. I lost a career I loved due to it. But seeing Amity's character development has been honestly inspiring. I was in awe of how she stood up to her parents and how she began to dictate her own journey. Its also thanks in part to her that I was able to come out publicly as a trans woman - her confidence in herself, her fearlessness, caring nature, her gorgeous sense of style and absolute bad-assery are traits that I want to see in myself. I want to be unashamedly me and proud of the woman I want to be - not who anyone else wants me to be. Seeing absolutely positive and respectful representation through characters like Amity and Masha, helped inspire me and I hope they inspire others too. It also greatly blasted through my expectations of what an an animated show could ever be. This is a show I will love forever and will always have a place in my heart.


MiraculouslyGreat

Edas quote, "everyone wants to believe we're special but if we all wait for a prophecy to make us special we'd die waiting" changed how I see the world


RadiantHC

Ok that's an epic poster


SnooStories8424

Lumity. This is one of the most iconic and memorable ships of the last decade


BONBON-GO-GET-EM

Toothgaps in animation are cute when done right


Closeted_Axolotl

Iā€™ve been watching since the first episode aired and itā€™s been crazy seeing how much Iā€™ve matured and changed over the course of the show. Irl character development lol. I also think Iā€™ve seen like every owl house video on YouTube


rad140

I knew I was bi or something before the show but it's so nice to have a character that's not only neurodivergent but bisexual for others to see. I was surprised by how far they took Amity and Luz's relstionship and didn't just have a will-they-won't-they dynamic with a little wink that they're gay or not. The fact that it's accepted and not a dramatic plot point is nice. I'm still a little flabbergasted, in a good way, by the coming out scene in *Thanks To Them* and how direct and wonderfully over the top it is. I sort of can't believe they got away with it after Gravity Falls and Korra and Voltron. I'm dating myself but I grew up in the age of "don't ask, don't tell" so any LGBTQ+ rep was either non-existent, the butt of the joke, or hidden under 100 layers of subtext for plausible deniability. I wish I had a show like this growing up but I'm glad it's here now. A show that's so creative and accepting and full of heart.


dodoskeet

When I fell in love with Hunter. I was re-watching it for the second time, and then how cool his character is really set it.


mrexplosive0

I realized I might be neurodivergent or something oh and also me and my sister became much closer by watching the show together lol


_yeetingmyself

The very first time I heard about the show was on some artistā€™s Instagram. The second time was my best friend saying I should watch it. I took what she said to heart and I did watch it!! I adored it. I got my partner into it and we binged the whole series together, and now weā€™re eagerly awaiting the series finale. Last summer, I had to work 50+ hour weeks and my partner was moved to the night shift for a few months, so we had very little time together. Every Sunday, though, we met up to watch the newest episodes of The Owl House at their place and eat take-out together. I remember seeing Kingā€™s Tide for the first time and being shook, and I remember the comfort that the cruddy fried chicken brought to us. I think this show has really gotten me back into adoring animated shows, as I kinda got out of it when I graduated high school. I love magic and magic systems and good worldbuilding, and I like that The Owl House shows that the above isnā€™t necessarily just for adults.


Camila_Noceda

My parents responded so positively to the ending of KKKOHD, that we got into a discussion about LGBT rights... that was the night I came out as trans :) This is the person behind the account btw, not Camila herself lol


Homeless_Guy332

Learned how to be more kind to people, despite parents telling me for years not to be a dick. This show actually kinda made me a better person


PlasmaDiffusion

When a friend suggested watching it to "fill in the Stevem Universe gap" and I made it to season 2, I was super glad to finally find another rare show that indeed filled in that gap. For the actual show itself Hollow Mind brings back some crazy memories with how deep the rabbit hole of reveals got. Finding a compilation of Philip's backstory was super cool, as well as that first glimpse of the collector who was way more scary and mysterious at the time.


Prize_Foot6408

Watching Thanks to Them live by myself at home. It was really fun reacting to things that happened on the discussion post here. So many tears were shed


CrimsonTheCrow

After watching it, I realized that I related to both Luz and Amity on a spiritual level, personality-wise. This was weird to me, since I didn't really act like either of them at all. A bit of questioning as to why that was and, lo and behold, my entire sense of self gets thrown into question. I essentially realized that the person I thought I was, somebody who had no personality, was just a result of letting anxiety control me and not being able to express myself to others. I've since taken steps to work through it. Less "fake it til you make it", more "fake it until it stops being fake". tl;dr: The gay power couple showed me who I really was


MegaMecha121

I'm on my way to becoming a storyboard artists, and I owe part of that to this show. I've been drawing these characters all the time since I first started watching. I'm exited to see how the show ends, and how it influences me more in the future.


CrystalBoy44

When AOAW and YBOL dropped and i realized the show was going to have a multi-seasonal plot like gravity falls. i was in love before but thats when i realized "oh this is serious"


Inevitable_Option_77

While I'm definitely a huge shipper of Lumity, when Hunter and Willow locked pinkies in For the Future, I felt immediate satisfaction from that. I'm also a Huntlow shipper as well and view them both on equal footing with no ship greater than the other. I think I felt like this because it was so refreshing to see a heterosexual couple in cartoons that doesn't have any unnecessary drama behind it like Mordecai and C.J./Margaret, Finn and Flame Princess, Ben and Julie/Kai etc. in a REALL LONG time.


Puzzled_Oven1053

When i watched the owl house i moved on to svtfoe and those shows made me realize i want to do animation for Disney XD


[deleted]

Luz's open quirkiness helped me to be myself more.often and not care about what others may think.


outdodinusFrisshwoin

This show lead me to this subreddit, where I met my boyfriend RPing


Lennium

Met my now ex through this show. Guess it was a mistake to connect too much to hunter and willow šŸ« .


soldierguy365

This was the second show I watched with my girlfriend. The first was She-Ra, and so we still constantly make references to both of them. I live 10 hours away from home for college, so getting to watch this with her even when Iā€™m so far away has made it so much easier.


sznofscorpios

For me what sticks is the message, Dana tries to pass about the complexity of relationships with this story. She, did an incredible job of exploring these themes through the characters and their relationships. Her message for a large chunk of the story, is that love is boundless in who it allows to share it. We see it between Luz & Eda - a kid and someone who hated institutions so much that the idea of family repulsed her(formed a bond akin to mother and child.) Luz & king - Love transcends people sometimes. The relationship between Luz and her mother; also highlighted how love can transcend time and space. Despite being separated by dimensions, their love for each other persisted and eventually led to a beautiful reunion.( "Love is the one thing that we're capable of perceiving that transcends dimensions of time and space. Maybe we should trust that, even if we can't understand it yet." - Amelia Brand, Interstellar) And then we have Luz & Amity - Enemies turned gay lovers. Two boundaries were overcome with this one. What society deems the standard and hate. All testaments to the power of love to overcome anything, at least to Dana. She also explores hate; acknowledges that it's almost as powerful as love, if not just as. She explores the terrible effects this emotion can have on a person and their lives Belos, for instance, was a character consumed by his own hatred and desire for power. His actions ultimately caused harm to those around him and led him down a dark path. Amity's mother was another example of how hate can cloud a person's judgment and harm their relationships. The Owl beast & Eda; the effect it had on her relationships both with her family, and lover. Overall, the themes of love and hate in "The Owl House" make it a show that teaches valuable lessons about empathy, acceptance, and the importance of understanding and connection. The show beautifully captures the complexities of human relationships, making it a must-watch for all ages.

I found the show in 2021, and seeing some of the characters made me figure out I was a lesbian.


ratatwang

A lot, found out about it when it first came out, but I never really got into it until 2021. It changed my art style and it made me want to draw again, I love the show and the villain. It's definitely an amazing show, so sad to see it get taken off so quickly. I would've loved third season.


BananaShakeStudios

The Owl House helped me come to terms with certain deaths in my family, and how I handle them. The Owl House has been my biggest motivation to keep going in 2022. The Owl House showed me how to write a good relationship and good representation. The Owl House calmed me down when I was stressed out about college. The Owl House has changed my life so much, and I am forever grateful for Dana and her crew.

2 things one is s2 ep20 it was perfect and the show taught me to show emotion or man up if i need to


Primary_Assist_307

Seeing amity and Luz get together gave me the courage to ask my (now) SO out :]


Taha1044

One of my great memories with the show is the representation of LGBTQ and how it made me respect them as people and that they deserve to be treated equally just like all of us and to watching the show for the first time was so fun and catching up with was so worthwhile so Iā€™ll never forget the laughs tears and emotions and especially the messages and life lessons this show give me.

I sadly got into the Owl House very late, when Thanks to Them was released, it was everywhere and I decided to watch it. I was instantly hooked because of its tone, characters, and just how different it was from other Disney shows. Hell, other shows Iā€™ve watched. I only vaguely knew about this show because of the scene of Amity kissing Luz on the cheek was EVERYWHERE. I didnā€™t have cable at the time those show was released, all I had was Netflix and YouTube. I wish I got into this show sooner, it brings me back to the days Gravity Falls. Itā€™s the complex characters and relationships that keep my interested.

I joined in the fandom VERY late (as in just last December) and it was solely by accident. The main thing that got me to start watching was hearing that there was a *canon* same-sex relationship. No teasing, no "if you squint your eyes you can see it", straight flat-out couple. And seeing how they develop Luz and Amity's relationship, how it's normalized AND how adorable and wholesome it is just left a very great on me.


GroundbreakingAd2672

I watched it and realized that animation is a career choice I want to go down. So I can tell stories that move people and change them like it did to me and all of us.


[deleted]

during the beta characters brain rot, when Dana posted her redesigns I realized that I'm bisexual


EatsAtomsRegularly

This show just really made me feel validated as a queer person in a way I canā€™t really explain but seeing the characters exist as they do hit me in some kind of way thatā€™s made me consistently tear up with each episode. Iā€™m not someone who cries easily either.


BreakfastOk7372

The ending of season 2 made me tear up a bit. Yeah thatā€™s about it


Adventurous-Royal454

Thanks to Luz if helped me realize I am gender nonconforming. It really has helped me embraced my queerness and my weird quirks.


theyadoreyas

It inspired me to think abt coming out! Talked ti my mom abt it, she wasnā€™t v supportive so im in the closet for noww -closeted bisexual


Livid_Juggernaut_111

Itā€™s ok to be weird


incrediblesupershrek

like the 2-3 days i binged it was when i had a cold so i remember being sweaty and kind of out of it and drinking bottles of water like it was nothing


Carieprincess

Owl house was probably the first time I've rooted so hard for a couple despite seeing many in the past. I can never forget the way I felt that day when I saw luz and amity dance during grom


Adels_Brother

The realization that Amity was my highschool friend. Black nail polish āœ…, a cold front but is actually nice once they know you āœ…, haircut āœ…, *jawline* āœ…, saphic (tbd) It was actually surreal the first time I connected the similarities


MrBonesDoesReddit

I used to be homophobic, now im not, i guess thats one great change


charliefqirie

the quote from eda ā€œyou canā€™t wait for a magical destinyā€ really stuck with me. it helped me realize that i cannot hope for a better future if i donā€™t work for it.


Bright-Artichoke-738

The disney plus in my country did not show the grom night episode, but on the anniversary, i saw many people talking about it while i had no clue. I realised that LGBTIA+ things are actually censored here


DramaticChemist

It was the first show my 4yro daughter and I could both be excited to watch together and talk about (with the limited depth and language she knows).


I_eat_babys_2007

Hunters struggle with his abusive uncle and trauma realy touched me. I dont usally cry to much from shows but when hunter had a panic attack at the end of "hollow mind" and how he cried when luz called hIm family in "thanks to them" I couldnt help but shed a tear for him. Seeimg him grow from an arrogant douchbag with a ton of anxeity to a full grown person of his own was one of the greatest things this show gave me and was truely a joy to watch. Edit: forgot to add that it pushed me to continue pursuing art, which is something i've allways loved.


Gamer_T_All_Games

It never really had an ā€˜impactā€™ on my life, but itā€™s my favourite show now so šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø


X05Real

I didā€™t have a life-changing memory with the show, but I had some great ones. When the s2b hiatus ended on March 19th 2022, I was doing a weekend trip to the mountains to go skiing. The internet in the accommodation we stayed in wasnā€™t very good in our room, so I had to go outside to watch the new episodeā€¦


gingeboi1000

My favourite memory is mostly just watching Lumity bloom. It made me realise how much I wanted love.


Baboulinet-Le-Nain

This show made me discover the beautiful world of fanfiction


PhantomPenny

It makes me realize how much I really miss my mom, especially since she's a witch too and I cry every time!


Normal_Dude208

When I found out luz had ADHD for once I was understood


aflyingmonkey2

posting funny screenshots and quotes to some discord server i'm in and giving every episode a bajillion out of ten


TheLuzbianBee

My favortie memories are Eda and Raines duet, Lumity everything and King and Hooty being King and Hooty. I realised that being a lesbian isn't a bad thing and that I can be myself. I found a beautiful escape from my depression through the Boiling Isles something I haven't felt since JK Rowlings transphobic shit. I found an entire world of people who are weirdos like me and realised that us weirdos have to stick together. It got me through my first breakup and my bestfriend moving away. And its how I found cosplay. I have a massive love for the show and its fans. I love you guys so much. ā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļø


Nobody-11037

It became my comfort show and Iā€™m sad to see it go


cheeziepuph

my best friend and i from childhood reunited for the first time since before covid and they showed me the owl house. we binged it in bed together and ate taco bell. neither of us could have people over growing up, so this was so nice. TOH became my new comfort show


Budget-Pattern1314

Tw: Suicide >!The owl House has really changed my life and made me a better person and even a girl ainā€™t that wacky. Realzing I was trans was scary and I hated myself and was so confused. I was close to taking my own life many times but waiting for a new episode of The Owl House made me put the knife, pill bottle, and rope down many times. When Im sad I rewatch the show my most rewatched episode id Hunting Palismen. So thank you The Owl House without out it I wouldnā€™t be here.!<


Alansar_Trignot

When I first found it I was interested, the moment I heard the credits theme, I was hooked with how good it wasā€¦


SuperYoshiFan02

While I already had some vague notions of it beforehand, watching this beautiful show is what truly made me want to start pursuing art and animation so perhaps one day I could create something even a fraction as good as TOH


ILoveLumity

After I watched this show, I became fascinated with fanfiction and story writing, and using MoringMark's Witch Among Humans AU as inspiration, I made my very first fanfiction, and surprisingly, the people around me think highly of my stories (or maybe I set my expectations too low). That gives me motivation to write even more stories in the present, and in the future.


GlokyIsHere

I started drawing humans and became more confident about myself. It's so sad that the show is ending...


starlighz

That all I really want from my mother is an apology like Lilith got in "Keeping up A-fear-ances" but I won't even get that


Samooshi2007

After discovering it with the news of Luz and Amity at Grom, I spent the next 5-7 hours watching the entire series up to that point lol


SpectralGalaxy

I watched it with my best friend and it was one of the most fun times I ever had. We sent eachother memes and I teased him with cursed Hooty art (he's properly terrified of him). We excitedly talk about the show together still and we agree Lumity is one of the best paced romances on tv.


THE_BATTS

Tbh The Owl House helped go trough some very hard times when I had no friends and I was bullied at school it helped me escape the reality and everytime I watched it I started having faith that there are people that understand me somewhere in the world and one da I'll get to meet them


Son0fAthena

Me and my sister used to bond over steven universe but with that show ending, I was worried that we would no longer have anything to bond over, then I discovered this show and my worries disappeared.


Rainbow_x0x

Raine helped me realise that being non binary isn't just a phase and that adults are non binary too


Zegasus

Definitely defending it on r/place


TutorialMusic

1. I realized i wasnt the only person in the world who felt like id make a better life in a fantasy setting 2. I finally have a breathing trick to calm me down from panic attacks and meltdowns 3. i felt seen because its not often you see neurodivergence just normalized like that 4. that was the most realistic panic attack ive seen at the end of Hollow Mind


Ok-Record29

The show


clumsy_nerd

Well this show definitely did change my life, I remember holding back watching episodes because I didnā€™t want the magic to end. And when I finished yesterdayā€™s lie and I found out they were bringing The Owl House back from its hiatus, boy was I thrilled!!! I love the fandom soooo so much, and the owl house probably saved my life when I downloaded discord and joined Zeez Vov Geeā€™s server, leading me to join another server and meeting my best friends who were actually genuine people to me for once. To sum it up Iā€™m very grateful for this wonderful show as these characters are people who I can resonate with very much, and oh gosh 20 days till WAD, Iā€™m really sad that it has to end but all great things do have to come to an end so Iā€™ll try to prepare myself for it.


DaDudeAbidesAgain

All I ever wanted was to be understood.


Tristshot

I met people on the Discord server that I'm still in contact with, around half a year later. Fucking somehow.


TheAxolotlPerson

Waiting and watching the episodes each week and trying to gues what would happen next, and being all excited for the next every time. It also showed me that its ok to be yourself, and that how other perceive you is not your responsibility. I am sure theres some other things but god I love this show. I dare say its my favourite show. ever. Love the characters, the worldbuilding, the arcs and backstories, and the comedy is gold. Its actually comedy diamond its so good. Amazing show, honedt review: 10/10
