top 10 simbar scenes (as voted by our followers)

5 ♡ 3.60 Simón finds Ámbar sad, sitting on a bench, he kisses her, takes her in his arms and they stay there in silence./Simón encuentra a Ámbar triste, sentada en un banco, la besa, la toma en sus brazos y se quedan ahí en silencio.

No one can convince me that Sara and Wanderlust would act like Addison and Zed from Zombies once they became boyfriend and girlfriend.

And that the corrupted versions of both would act as Ámbar and Simón from Soy Luna in season 3 of the series.

[calyxthenerd]

Something about platonic soulmates of “opposite” genders is so personal to me

[redandbluebones]

Best scene for Simbar♡

Can't get this couple out of my head

"Here's simón 🙄" his annoyance is HILARIOUS to me

Soy Luna - S01

I decided not to separate the first season of Soy Luna into two parts, since most mentionable things happen in the second part of the first season.

I think the first season was great. The story is really interesting; something is always going on; it's never boring. Everybody's storyline is intriguing for their own reasons, and I wouldn't say any of them is particularly boring. I like that while the roller is the main place where most things are happening, we all see them living their lives outside that. We see them go to school and work; it feels really realistic. Yeah, they spend the majority of their time in the Roller, but that's normal because the whole series revolves around skating. I think the second part, from episode 41 to 80, was more interesting and filled with drama. 

Let's talk about the characters now: 

Luna: She is such a lovely girl, and I really love how passionate she is about things. I really like that she is always trying to remain a good, bigger person. I really like that no matter how many times she falls, she always stands up, and she keeps going, which is an amazing trait to popularize. I love how positive she is and that she never gives up. I love the way she encourages people and that she always sees the best in people. 

However, her clumsiness is a bit annoying after a while. I liked that she is not this perfectly organized person, but sometimes it's a bit too much how she forgets almost everything. It was cute for a bit, but it was quite annoying that some of the bad things that happened to her were possible because she left her stuff at the worst places. Obviously, people trying to harm her or ruin her dreams was never her fault, but again, at the same time, it was a bit annoying. 

I really liked their friendship with Simon. They are really great friends, and they are always there for each other. I understood her when she couldn't decide what she felt about him, especially after being friends for so many years, and I also understood that she was a bit confused, but I don't think she should've gotten together with Simon. I don't think she's ever had feelings for him; I think she was afraid that she would lose him, so she wanted to give it a try. But I think we all knew all along that she never really had any romantic feelings for him. 

I think it was clear that she liked Matteo and he liked her as well, but I like that she isn't trying to get closer to him because he is taken. There are a few questionable moments, though, when they clearly both overstepped, but I think she tried her best to not get too involved when he was still with Ambar. I think they are a cute couple, and I was really happy they kind of got together in the very end; however, it was a bit too much waiting and build-up. The kiss that happened in the middle of the season was kind of weird as well; I mean, Matteo kissed him without her consent, but at the same time, she liked him as well, so it's a bit of a conflicting situation. 

It was also so annoying how she always believed Ambar. People told her multiple times (especially Nina) that she was behind most of the bad things that happened to her, but she always thought that it couldn't be her when it was so obvious. I understand why she believed her in the very beginning, but after so many questionable things, I don't understand why she still believes her. 

I think they are really great friends with Nina, and they were always so good for each other. I'm glad they focused so much on that relationship because it was so good to see them become besties. 

All in all, I like her character, and I do think she is a really good person. I think she is one of the least toxic main characters. 

Simon: I think he is a nice guy; he is a really great friend for Luna. I think it's quite easy to tell from the very beginning that he is in love with Luna. I love how great a friend he is, not just when it comes to Luna, but also when it comes to his other friends. He is such a loyal one, and it was so incredibly sweet how he moved to Argentina just to be with Luna. 

I think it's easier to say bad things about his personality in the other half of the first season. I think he is really great in the first half of it. It was really brave of him to tell Luna he is in love with her, and I'm glad he did it, especially since he wasn't capable of being only her friend anymore. However, I have to say he didn't really handle that situation well. I think it was more than normal that Luna was confused since she had never thought about him like that before. It seemed like he wanted an immediate answer, but it must have been such a huge surprise for her. I mean, yeah, people (mostly Nina and Matteo) implied that he has feelings for her, but she never really believed them, for obvious reasons. She was also in the middle of the whole skating race thing. I think the timing wasn't the best. And I have to mention that his behavior afterwards was really questionable as well. So he wanted to leave Argentina and go back to Mexico after realizing that Luna didn't reciprocate her feelings, and it kind of had a bit of an emotional manipulation feeling to it. Yeah, obviously I get that he felt like he couldn't stay close to Luna after everything, but I don't know... It kind of felt as if he wanted to make her feel bad, or as if the only way she could've made him stay was if she got into something she didn't want. The way he treated Luna while he was in a relationship with Daniela was also really painful to watch. Like, to this day I can't understand why he didn't trust her. Like, why would she have lied about everything? She said it several times that she wants him to be happy, but the only thing he heard was that she is jealous because he isn't spending as much time with her as he used to. There were so many red flags as well, and other people made comments about Daniela as well, but he still believed her. 

However, I really loved that when he realized that she didn't feel the same way about him, he broke up with her, because he loved her way too much to see her unhappy. He would rather let her go to see her happy, even if it was with someone else, which shows how much he loves her and that he is mature. 

All in all, I think he is a great character who was a bit annoying and toxic in the second part of the first season, but he was an amazing friend in the first season, and I really liked how he owned up to his mistakes. He is a great guy and a great friend, and he truly loved Luna. He is a good character.

Matteo: I have a really hard time deciding what to think about him. He is such a charming guy, and while he is a bit self-absorbed, he does it with such ease without actually hurting anyone, and to be honest he isn't as selfish as most people like to present him. He is a really complex character, and I do think he is not a bad person, but he's made a few really questionable decisions. 

I never really understood why they were together with Ambar. Like, I get that they are the two best skaters, but I don't think they are compatible, and I doubt they were ever in love with each other. As I said before, Matteo is also a bit selfish and self-absorbed, but he doesn't try to ruin other people's lives to stay on top. I think he made the right choice when he broke up with her after what she did to Luna and Simon. However, I didn't like how he was clearly pursuing and flirting with Luna while he was still dating Ambar. It wasn't right, and he clearly had feelings for her since the very beginning. In his defense, I don't think he realized that until later. But it still wasn't right, and he shouldn't have acted that way.  I also didn't really understand why he wanted to get back together with Ambar when he was clearly in love with Luna, just because she got together with Simon. I think that was a big mistake. 

He wasn't always the nicest with Simon. He kind of came around at the end, but in the beginning he was sometimes really mean to him. I guess it was because he'd already had feelings for Luna, but he still could've been nicer. 

I think he actually changed a lot by the end of the first season, which I really liked. I think he changed the most, and it was great to see how the love he felt for Luna and Luna herself changed him. 

Ambar: What a character. She is really pretty and beautiful and a good skater. I also have to give it to her that she is really good at manipulating people and making it look like she is innocent, especially when it comes to Luna. 

But I can't say she is a good person. I know she is very complex, and the reason why she acts like this is mostly Sharon's fault, who never really cared about her and kept saying the same bullshit to her. She wants to be the best, which is normal, and there's nothing wrong with that, but she is trying to do so by hurting others and "eliminating" them. She didn't just manipulate people and tell them lies, but she also tried to hurt them physically. Like when she made Luna fall by doing something to the skate she was using. She took it too far several times and caused a lot of damage. 

But at the same time, I feel sorry for her. Not just because of Sharon, but also because of Matteo and Luna. While I don't think they were actually in love with Matteo and she tried to manipulate him as well, as I said before, I don't think Matteo was right. He should've broken up with her before pursuing Luna. And while I don't agree with what Ambar did to Luna, I can imagine how bad she was feeling when it seemed like Luna was taking everything from her: her role in the Roller, her boyfriend. And combining that with Sharon's influence on her... It was the perfect recipe for disaster. 

All in all, she is also a complex character, but she was a bit too much for me. I know she will become a better person, which I can't wait to happen. 

Nina and Gaston are great; I couldn't wait for them to get together. Sharon is probably the worst character; I really disliked her. Luna's parents are great. Jazmin is so funny; I really enjoy her character. Jim, Yam, and Ramiro are great as well, sometimes a bit annoying. Cato and Tino are really funny, but sometimes they are a bit too much. And I really love Tamara. She is such a lovely woman and so supportive. 

Great season, I really enjoyed it.

Soy Luna Season 3 Episodes 1-30 Thoughts

Okay I've been zooming through these episodes fast while I have the longest break from work I've had since I started the job.

Giving us Lumon for 10 episodes except it's only one-sided on Luna's part and she goes back on it because Nina keeps saying "maybe you're just trying to forget Matteo" is annoying

Nina, no offense, but you have the worst relationship advice fam

Simon and Luna are actually cute together, and people often forget that those in relationships should be capable of being reliable and trusted friends. Relationships don't have to have constant conflict

Poor Luna throughout all of it though. She was about to confess to Simon, only for him to say he's in love with Ambar. I would be crushed

Ambar and Simon having sexual tension in almost every scene they share is crazy for a Disney show. I get why so many people love them together so much

I also like that Simon is the one person she's not scared of being vulnerable around even with their relationship ended, that hug for comfort was everything

Sharon looking like a Dollar Store Carrie-Anne Moss is making it hard for me to take her seriously lmao

Sharon is an awful parental figure to Ambar. "You have to stay with the Valente's because I have a plan to exact revenge against them" is the worst possible thing to say to her when she was the one constant in Ambar's life from the time she was adopted

Alfredo is so stubborn, it is realistic. Old people are like that

The end of Gastina is sad, but understandable. I feel like Gaston did see the video Delfina posted about Eric and Nina and didn't assume she cheated, get mad, or anything like that. However, he was probably thinking "it's unfair for her to be committed to me when I can barely even make time for her"

Eric kind of gives me weird vibes. He's not bad, but I feel like he's an inch away from doing something to get me to dislike him. From my experience, the whole shy guy thing starts seeming like a red flag once you exit high school unless they were homeschooled or escaped an abusive situation tbh

Delfina and Pedro are boring, but I can see them being a stable couple tbh

The scenes involving Lutteo feel forced, like they are telling more than they are showing

Matteo is actually somewhat bearable this season, and I attribute that to him having actual friends beyond just Gaston (who mostly gave him advice)

The Red Sharks are absolutely insufferable. Emilia and Benicio both deserve the worst

I understand Ramiro though. He saw skating as his CAREER more than anyone else. The Jam and Roller team had nothing except each other until their video while the Red Sharks had equipment, a financier, sponsors, a rink, etc. I kind of agree with Ramiro on not feeling too bad about recording them. The whole aspect of being shunned and then "please don't release the video, we're friends" after nobody really talking to him except Jim. I'd be annoyed too

The show makes such a big deal out of Emilia kissing Matteo without his consent (which is very messed up too, don't get me wrong), but it brushed over Matteo doing the same to Luna and somewhat less with Benicio doing the same to Ambar.. I'm not sure how to feel about that

Gary is a horrible person, and Ana deserves someone who is amazing tbh. I know if I was a single 40-ish year old man dating her, I would be obsessed with treating her right and making sure she was happy

It is nice to have a very clear antagonist with a big presence like Gary though. He is lowkey an idiot because if he did things with an ounce of tact and wasn't an asshole for no reason, things wouldn't suddenly start blowing up in his face like the big lack of a coach and his team's lack of discipline (why did he stop at 4 instead of 6 lmao)
