Its Honestly Funny How Cartoons Have Been Making Better Villains Than Disney Movies

[undergroundpuppy9]

Namaari didn't think she was going to do it

[shy-peacock]

Commissioned some rayamaari art from the wonderful @lettuccine ! (Highly recommend giving them a follow ❤️)

Thank you so much for the art lettuccine! It was exactly what I was looking for, some soft/spicy Raya and Namaari content ❤️❤️❤️

Rewatched Raya and have forgotten how much I love her!!

I have also forgotten how much tension they had?? Why were they constantly flirting with each other like that 😭 Honestly had me gasping from the start, how did Disney fumble this so bad-

Here are My Favourite Female Animated Characters from various eras! Interestingly, I've noticed a recurring pattern among them, Ummm.

Disney hero/villain tropes and personalities I'd like them to revisit or try for the first time.

An optimistic male lead. Pessimistic leads are a dime a dozen, so having someone who's more innocent and sees the world in a positive light would be awesome.

2. A male hero/female villain dynamic. Male villains are more common than female in Disney canon (though the female villains have better odds of being iconic), and usually when we have a female villain, we have a female hero. It'd be neat having a male protagonist and a female antagonist.

3. A villain who's kinda right, or has selfless or selfless-adjacent (ie not "I'm doing this just for me," but "I'm doing this for someone I care about--and maybe me too") intentions and bad methods. I feel like Disney has done this trope before (or at least tried), but I'd love them to do this more; a complex villain who CHALLENGES the protagonist to grow as a person, whether they're doing "I'm selfish but now I understand how it hurts others" or "I thought I was doing everything right but now I see the situation isn't so black and white."

4. A forgotten/fallen hero as the villain. I like the idea of someone who was originally a typical Disney protagonist, only to get to a situation where they gave in to their fear, hope, despair, grief, etc. I remember the 2015 remake of Cinderella doing a really good parallel to how both Cinderella and the Tremaines had suffered grief, but while it embittered the Tremaines, Cinderella held strong, making them resent her further (particularly Lady Tremaine).

5. A shy Disney protagonist. Most Disney protagonists are pretty outgoing and/or social, so having someone who isn't the best at socializing would be a cool Disney lead--plus if it was a musical, the singing could either all be done from the protagonist and co's minds rather than out loud, or the protagonist only sings when they think they're alone. Perhaps they eventually gain the confidence to sing publicly.

6. A hero and villain romance. This may not be something that you wanna have with a film that caters to a younger audience (glamorizing abusive relationships and such), but if done correctly, I like the idea of a villain redemption and subsequent falling in love with the protagonist. As such, they'd probably have to be a secondary villain in order to keep their crime/kill count low. It's a controversial idea, but I do like the enemies to lovers trope (note: ENEMIES to lovers, not two people who pester, annoy or argue with each other then fall in lover over time; not a fan of that).

It's been a while since my last sapphic art so here some rayamaari for the soul

[undergroundpuppy9]

I think it's the first time I draw them like this, although it's difficult to draw kisses...

On the other hand I remembered that I hadn't drawn Namaari for a long time with the change of haircut I made for her

[shy-peacock]

THEY INCLUDED RAYA AND NAMAARI AND THEY ARE HOLDING HANDS 😭🥰❤️🥹😘

(Tap the pic to go and support the artist on Twitter❤️)

LOOK AT THEMMMMM 😭❤️

[musenilla]

The audacity of these two holding hands AND not get together in the end?? Criminal I tell you,,

Felt like drawing them again for fun in between commission work. Only because I went through RATLD art book and thought Raya’s blue concept outfit was cute, so I ended up wanting to draw her out in it hdhd
