#it’s criminal that best boy Graydon didn’t get a kiss but unlocking his bard magic was so precious

Thisthisthis. Two actually queer actresses playing queer characters kiss in the first episode (I fucking screamed, was not prepared). The Main Character(TM) is a douchebag princess who’s just an unmitigated asshole for a large chunk of the first half. Do you know how often I get lovable lady assholes? Almost never! She’s such a shit! I love her!

Their fighter is just so Shaped and even though I’m gay he’s just so nice to look at. Warwick Davies as Willow gets to Get Weird and he’s honestly such a delight.

If you’ve never seen the movie, you can still watch the show. If you have seen the movie the show is such a clever continuation.

Honestly, it's so wild tumblr isn't obsessed with Willow. With all the talk of love for old campy scifi fantasies like Xena, Farscape, Stargate, Buffy, the list goes on. You'd think tumblr would love a show that honors the old campy style while merging it with a more modern rebellious style. It's a show that has scenes with rock music that watch like a youtube scene compliation. It feels like fanfiction. But in a good way. In the way that fanfic writers know how to choose exciting scenes and weave epic romances and character arcs with action. It's a show with lesbians whose love language is sword fighting. A rogueish himbo who is loyal and witty and there's a whole scene where he plays sexy in a waterfall and he likes to get tied up by his girlfriend. The saddest nerdiest emo bard with a heart of gold. And, a female chosen-one, almost like a firey fanon Zelda - learns magic but is most passionate about cooking. Like... I could go on. The plot is fun and exciting. Reminds me of playing DnD with my friends. The cast is fun and weird and queer and make playlists for their characters and like our fanart.

Like, its just wild to me. But anyways, if you read this and are intrigued and havnt seen Willow yet. Please do. Im reaching out my hand, asking you to trust me. Its so good.
