Random Xiaolin Showdown Headcanons: Favorite Disney Princesses

Omi: Mulan (of course). First and foremost she is a WARRIOR. And she's known as THE hero who saved China, the SAVIOR of China. This woman is Omi's life goal. Plus they both have sassy dragon sidekicks. After the other monks show Omi this movie, he spends the next week searching the temple grounds for his own lucky cricket.

Kimiko: Tiana, partly because she and Tiana are both daddy's girls, partly because Tiana also definitely has a temper but she keeps it cool for the most part (Kimiko is working on that). Kimiko also likes Tiana's "get it done" work ethic, and that she's an entrepreneur. Also that she doesn't fall for the hotshot prince right away.

Clay: Ariel. Look, Clay loves the classics PLUS Ariel is such a little anthropologist. She wants to learn more about the world outside her home, and Clay can relate. Also the fights with her dad, he can definitely relate to that. (I was considering Jane from Tarzan as well, but she's not an official princess 🤷🏾‍♀️) (Clay also likes parts of Pocahontas, especially the music, but he just can't get behind the white-washed Disneyfication of her story.)

Dojo: Raya. I don't think this one needs explanation (also I haven't actually seen this movie so I am purely going off the title. And so is Dojo.)

Raimundo: Isabela (Encanto) doesn't count, but his first choice is definitely Isabela - she's pretty and can be very classy and refined, but she's got a wild, mischievous side to her. And she definitely has a temper. Also she knows all about that big, intergenerational family struggle. Out of official princesses though, Moana. She's another go-getter type, but when she does leave home, she's doing it to try to save her village. And he really liked the music in Moana. (Clay really liked Moana's pet pig, Pua. He was disappointed by the lack of Pua screen time in most of the movie.)
