#mytho princess tutu

This is why I LOVE his evil/sl*t arc in season 2. His default without his soul or spirit is someone who is selfless and kind, someone who will risk himself for the sake of others without a second thought but one of the key themes of PTT as it goes on is that not everything is as it seems, and the ‘characters’ Drosselmeyer created are so much more human and beautifully flawed than he intended. My favorite part of Mytho over the course of the story is him regaining his humanity, and not just his emotions—but his ugliness as a human as well.

Prince Siegfried was someone who was never selfish, someone who would sacrifice himself again and again for others without a thought and as he regains his emotions you can see his original doubts and worries that he had smothered to be the perfect Prince peak through—how he resented his own weakness, his unhealthy determination to be a hero for others even at the detriment and beration of himself that it’s honestly really sad and cruel when you dive into it. When he’s fighting against the Raven Blood, he’s constantly saying things like “leave, foul Raven” when all he’d really done was display a desire to be loved selfishly. On one side of the coin he was a selfless prince who loved all, but deep inside there were parts of him that wanted to be loved back by all as well, and that isn’t a cruel or ugly feeling because it’s natural as a human to want love to be reciprocated!—but to Prince Siegfried who believed he couldn’t desire anything in his heroic pursuit, the simple thought of acting for the sake of receiving was probably so horrible and imperfect that he hid it away until the Raven Blood drew it all out and forced him to confront these desires. Why else would Raven Mytho only target those who admired him from afar, but never Ahiru? Because Ahiru has always honestly shown her love and care for him. For everything he gave, those he loved would not dare step forward to truly love him, but when his negativity is emphasized by the Raven’s blood, he can’t find it in him to hurt the people who have shown personal love and care back—being Fakir and Ahiru. I fully believe the Raven Mytho arc helped him come into his true humanity at the end—that he was a Prince, but that didn’t mean he wasn’t human, and that he could be selfish and the true route to a happy ending was never to sacrifice himself, but to push through as he is for the sake of others and his own well being and self respect. Loving all would be perfect, but loving without respecting and accepting your true self and your flaws won’t benefit anyone. The whole story his rebellions kept building up, his refusal to follow orders or what he was ‘meant’ to be or do and it finally crescendos at the end when he allows himself to be selfish and choose to love one person more than everyone else. It’s his true, real act of selfishness, but one he actively choose that defies every perfection Drosselmeyer wrote him to be, and in the end what shows how far he’s come in becoming a true human rather than a fairytale.

Rewatching Princess Tutu and yk how a lot of people think of Mytho as a character with no personality? I'm thinking that might not true at all even before he gets his heart shards back. He's lacking a lot of things but one thing he doesn't is kindness, something I think is his biggest and most important trait. Spraining his ankle to catch a girl who trips, diving out a window to catch a baby bird, even something simple like closing his book to give whoever is addressing him his full attention (Ig this one is more manners tho huh?)? He actually has to be instructed to stop being a hero bc the minute he is out of Rue & Fakir's sight he wanders into helping others. I REALLY like that we get to see him stripped down to his bare essentials because of his missing heart and almost wish we'd gotten one more episode of him completely shardless bc it doesn't last long (I wouldn't change it fr but just a thought)

With how indifferent and passive Mytho usually is, you'd think he'd watch a blaze go up and drift right by it but no! He'd rush in the minute he suspects someone or something is inside and it's part of the reason Fakir is so strict about where he is bc Mytho is a professional self sacrificial lamb (lack of better phrasing). Another thing I noticed abt him before he gets a shard is that he had a habit of rebelling in little ways, he is really obedient when the order is something to be done immediately, "Dance with me" for example but the minute he gets a longterm instruction like "dont wander off" he just...doesnt listen. Fakir is constantly running after him bc he'll just decide to be at an empty school at the crack of dawn or in the fucking woods. After Tutu starts collecting the shards for him he becomes more complex in thoughts and actions but those things never really change and it's so intriguing to me.

Fascinating boy I love him🥰

MYTHO FROM PRINCESS TUTU

Justification: “Mytho's whole deal is that he is the protagonist of a tragedy; his original name was Prince Siegfried, and the deal of his character was that he was 'the prince who loved everyone', with unending, equal love for all. However, the story remained unfinished, with Siegfried and the antagonist, the Raven, stuck in an eternal fight. To end the stalemate, Siegfried shattered his heart to seal the Raven, losing all his emotions. Mytho's character arc throughout the show is about regaining those emotions, and the way his experiences have changed him from Prince Siegfried, deforming his role as the ideal fairytale prince. His character arc culminates with him (romantically) loving Rue, another of the show's protagonist, above everyone, thus subverting his role as 'the prince who loves all'. In context this arc is pretty well done imo and in general Princess Tutu is good at valuing platonic and romantic love equally (as well as not distinguishing between them at all) BUT! Aromanticism could've strengthened his arc so much; subverting the idea of 'the prince who loves all' by having him love no-one, a loveless aromantic, would've been such an incredibly interesting direction to take his character, especially since midway through the show he literally has his emotion of love corrupted, something he deals with for the entire second half. Giving him a complex relationship with 'love' as a concept is a natural progression of his character and aromanticism a natural extension of this.”
