This was so adorable. To me this is perfect. The only thing I would feel bad is that the grandma would probably have her start helping immediately from when she was young. I mean imagine being like 9 and some guy comes in about how his wife is cheating on him
*Mirabel giving Bruno a therapy knitting* Mirabel: And what do we say when we feel this way? Bruno: Press F to pay respects. *Mirabel stops knitting, awkward silence follows* Mirabel: ...N-no. Where did you hear that? Bruno: Future. Mirabel: ...ok...
I can agree but i think mirabel's gift will be to be invisible and here's why do you all remember the song "wetting on a miracle " and you know why she even sing this song here's the answer...because she felt like no one cared for her that she had no one else to help her that she's all alone
The Gift you thought up for Mirabel is surprisingly accurate and creative. Making her the emotional-healing counterpart to her Mother. As well as working as a Magical Therapist. I like that kind of AU.
In my mind, a perfect gift for Mirabel would be the ability to feel other people's emotions & maybe even see their memories to some degree, kinda like Sunset Shimmer's geode powers in Equestria Girls. That way, she'd be able to sense if someone in her family or in the village was going through an emotional crisis, get to the root of the problem by witnessing that person's experiences for herself, and try to help come up with a solution. She'd be like the ultimate therapist! ;) As for her room, I imagine it being more or less a normal bedroom, but with two special additions: a chaise lounge so people who come to her for guidance have somewhere to sit while they pour their heart out to her, and a specialized workspace where she can work on her embroidery in her free time.
Since she loves to help everyone all the time, I'd give her the power of creating clones of herself. That way she can run errands, help her family with their own chores, be on therapist duty and do her craft projects all at once. It wouldn't be healthy in the long run, but that's when the plot would kick in.
considering her story is all about viewing things from others perspectives, I'd give her the ability to view the past from another persons point of view.
I love this idea. I think though, instead of always being a quilt, it could be anything knitted or handmade, but it depends on the person Mirabel is helping. Like, maybe a child comes in and with their story, Mirabel creates a little stuffed toy for them. It depends on the client for what Mirabel would make. It'd be pretty interesting to see what could be made with your story~.
I think this would be an interesting take. However, rather than have every one of her quilts be helpful or even turning out right, she'd be capable of mistakes which would not only affect her patients sometimes but also make her the outcast of the family as most everyone else's gifts would be seen as more helpful and less chaotic, in a similar fashion to how Bruno's future sight made him an outcast. Thus, there would still be that disconnect from her family that we see in the beginning of the film, with her, desperately trying to make her family proud by not making mistakes and meanwhile, her grandmother would treat her much the same way as before by telling her to take breaks from using her gift whenever disaster occurs while focusing on the more, well-grounded seeming Madrigals. Then, Mirabel's struggles start by her admitting that she herself isn't fine in an updated rendition of her song (to accommodate her having a gift), and since her gift would tie in with mental well-being, she would start seeing the cracks in Casita like in the original plot, only this is Casita representing how the rest of her family isn't as fine as they seem either, thus kickstarting her journey to save the miracle after she gets shut down by her grandmother after trying to warn everyone. She'd still go through the story, helping out each family member one-by-one, but her confusion over where the thread leads, will bring about the creation of a not-so-perfect quilt as she goes, that develops in her room more and more the further along she gets. Eventually, Casita would inevitably crumble after Mirabel's argument with Abuela, and she'd eventually go off to be on her own while her worried family searches for her. Meanwhile, that one quilt that was crafted of her journey survives the houses' destruction, though in tatters, but is seen by Abuela, which is one of the reasons that propels her after her granddaughter in order to start the healing process with her. Anyways, that's what I though up so far. Still, I enjoy listening or reading AU stories that get my own imagination going, and this one was really good.
So, my friend has a theory that all the gifts were given specifically in case a war were to come to the Encanto. So how would this gift play into that I wonder.
I love this theory for Mirabel’s power! It does make me wonder how Abuela would suppress it, though. Maybe she would be so pressured to make the feel-good quilts that she doesn’t think about other things she could make (living stuffed animals, sweaters with corny jokes, etc.) Maybe her song with Isabella could be more of them helping and relating to each other rather than just Mirabel helping Isabella.
I feel like if Mirabel had a gift it would be Hyper intelligence. Maybe something that could rival Rick Sanchez. Isabela is the Beauty, Luisa is the Bronze, And Mirabel would be the Brains.
*brawns. Bronze is an alloy consisting primarily of copper, commonly with about 12-12.5% tin and often with the addition of other metals (such as aluminum, manganese, nickel or zinc) and sometimes non-metals or metalloids such as arsenic, phosphorus or silicon. These additions produce a range of alloys that may be harder than copper alone, or have other useful properties, such as strength, ductility, or machinability. ...and I'm pretty sure Luisa isn't made of bronze. She would look much different if she were. *Brawns* essentially means strength.
Yeah I could definitely see this idea being a thing IF things were different. Also that “We don’t talk about home improvement” bit KILLED me XD (Edit)…..I NOW DEMAND A FULL VERSION OF THAT BIT ADDING FEATURED GUEST BANJO KAZOOIE!!! Lol
If in some AU where either one of her sisters or cousins didnt get thier gift and she got something related to balance; Luisa: mirabel grows to giant size so she can see anything from a birds eye veiw Isabella: mirabel makes people happy while she touches them but it goes away when she lets go Delores: when miribel knitts it creates a gold thred to any single object shes looking for Camilo: mirabel can make real life sound effects, including musical instraments Antonio: mirabel can shapeshift into animals
I wasn't sure where you were going with this at first, but man, I am 100% on board. Thoughtful, purposeful, and didn't stray too far from the story. If she was given a ceremonial gift, I would not balk at this. Nice job!
I would absolutely love if Miraboo's family could take the magic knitting needles, imagine special moments that belong in the museum and then put them up as knitted portraits in the hallway to surprise her. Dolores could put up a quilt of the moment Mirabel helped her get with Mariano. Isabella would make a quilt of when she made her first cactus and Mirabel is trying to make a hug happen. I would definitely want Mirabel's parents to have numerous quilts documenting every time they were proud of her, even if she didn't think she was making much of an impact at the time. I could go on for a year about this movie, sweet AUs and a potential series. Thank you for sharing this video with us, I think I'll be smiling for the rest of the day now!
And I think even Abuela would have one for her, that depicts their final argument that opened her eyes to what she was doing to her family, and then their subsequent hug at the river
I love this idea! Someone should make an animatic of the scene where Mirabel and Abuala are talking about how the Madrigals got their gift. Abuela tells Mirabel about the trauma of losing her husband, while Mirabel starts to knit the quilt; a tapestry of their familia's past and present that will help them weave a better future!
This is the perfect gift for her I can’t think of a better one. It’s just so sweet and cute just making some thing for somebody and it helps them feel better just like a normal gift would but in a different way.
I found a new connection between Abuelo Pedro, Abuela Alma and Mirabel. In the audiobook of the Encanto animated film by Disney Press. The audiobook says that Pedro owned a dress shop in the original town that they lived in. After being saved by Pedro from raiders in front of his shop, Alma learned how to sew and started to work with Pedro. My theory is that the sewing machine that is in Mirabel's room, originally was owned by Pedro and Alma. Maybe Abuela taught Mirabel how to sew some time before her fifth birthday and Gift Ceremony. Which would explain why Mirabel loves to sew so much! 😁🧵✂
I feel like her gift could have been crafting. Every time a problem would come up she could make incredible invetions out of scarce materials. Her room would be very colourful and full of crafting materials so she would always offer everyone free invetions if they were in need
This is amazing, the gift, and the room but I do have 1 thing to say, the gift is a bit much to explain, for example: Camilo : He Shapeshifts Luisa: has Super Strength Bruno: See's and tells the future Pepa: mood changes the weather Almost all gifts can be explained in 2-5 words but mirabel's really can't, doesn't rlly matter though I just wanted to point it out
This video's intro was just, the most. XD Good video! 👍I also think she would have a power based on knitting but more or less like Kubo. Being able to create life through knitting, or sewing something so that they can help around the town.
when i first watched the movie, i was thinking Mirabel would be revealed to have empathic power. like the power to know how someone is feeling, and maybe even go into their mind (like Psychonauts). She could also have the ability to telepathically communicate even at long distends. i do like the knitting room but i would add see has stuffed and/or knitted represented of the family maybe even some of the towns people, like a crochet butterfly for Alma or stuffed cactus for Isabela.
Honestly, that gift is pretty perfect, but I don’t think it should be limited to quilts After all, Mirabel’s creative outlet isn’t focused on just one thing She like to make personalized things with embroidery, sewing, and knitting Soft fabric things that are stitched together and decorated I’d say add more things Maybe she takes what the person says, and figured out how to personalize it for them A plushie for a little kid who lost a pet, a sweater for a man who’s mother died, a blanket for a woman who feels anxious and doesn’t know how to talk it out, stuff like that Comfort objects, if you will
I had the theory where the powers are given to fix the character flaws. Antonio was lonely, so was given animal friends. Isabella must be perfect, so was given plant manipulation, which she could only use for flowers. So with how positive Mirabel is, I didn't think she needed a power. but in 'waiting for a miracle' she wants her relative's powers to prove herself. So I was thinking that a power to borrow gifts could fit. We can stretch this to Mirabel borrowing Abuella's matriarch powers too. And the room idea with the museum can still fit this because borrowing gifts celebrates her family.
I had a thought that maybe Mirabel's gift had something to do with being good with children and the nursery really was meant for her. She was meant to help the next generation in the way she did Antonio and even the village kids.
Yeah that theory is everywhere and I kinda prefer the one in the video over it because technically it’s already hers and everyone else’s job to keep the miracle burning and on top of that she’d still have no powers.
You know how in the movie, you get visual interpretations of the different members' stress? Like during Luisa's song and during Abuela's flashback? What if that was her gift. To be able to visually see these scenarios like we're seeing in the movie?
Thats a Great AU!!! Only 1 Nitpick Instead of the Magic room being Made of yarn, Id instead suggest that it has a number of Butterflies that spin and sew the items together, and when they are not being called Upon, they sleep in Cocoons that line the walls. Plus the Wall that Leads to the Hall being bare of the Cocoons, with a Massive Loom that Mirabel can use to make the New Memory Quilts
Your idea was much more interesting than mine was (because i admit that i as well was unable to stop my mind from going “I love this, but what if”) My idea was that she would be able to sort of generate crafting supplies. She’d use them to make little diy gifts - like that plushie tiger from the film canon - for anyone who needed cheering up. They wouldn’t have been magic, but I feel like a lot of times they’d’ve helped people feel better on virtue of how much love and care she put in each present. (And they wouldn’t have been just plushies; she’d be able to make other things, each specifically tailored to the individual she was making them for. Like if the bald guy was sad about being a bald guy, Mirabel could make him a cool hat)
I think her gift would be to see people's memories, she can learn about their trauma and help make them feel better by understanding what they are going through idk
These Encanto videos are awesome and some of your best videos yet! You should make a lot more of these in the future! Maybe even talk about Disney’s other 3D animated movies!
I don't think her room would be "all knitted wool" in the first room, more like... It's a room like Casita, but with the room having knitted draping's, knitted covers for the supports, knitted carpets on the wooden floor, and also maybe a magic window that looks outside, then the door is at the other end of the room, where the extra stuff is, and those rooms are also styled like Casita, but with that Mirabel flair added onto it. Since well... Her and Casita were like close friends
I think her gift would be to be able to bring life to anything she makes/draws. It would be fitting because she has a wide imagination and love for DIY
I definitely agree more with this gift theory then my own! Mine was that she has x-ray vision. ( To partner with Dolores’s super hearing and to maybe get rid of the glasses?)
I imagine her power would reflect the miracle since she longed for one her self. and people theorize about her gift is influencing magic, right? SO SHE WOULD SHOOT CANDLES OUT OF HER HAND-
OK since we’re gonna go with the knitting thing let’s say that it’s like her sister Isabella So she can control the threads and she has two magic needles that can instantly make new threads she can control. And the room I will say is gonna be pretty similar because it’s still gonna be covered with threads but she can just instantly control them she can like make them grow into like a huge snakes oh nobody can get in or she can just like control usage to grow around The door so no one can leave while they’re having a talk or something like that maybe can even be like her sister Isabella‘s room where she can just have her bed on hanging from the ceiling
I think I know why Mirabel didn't get a gift. In her gift ceremony, I noticed that after she touches the candle, she wipes the wax residue off her hands and on her dress. I think you need to keep he residue on your hands and after touching the knob the magic would clean it up for you.
I feel like if Mirabel did have a gift, based on her personality of helping her family take a load off of being *perfect*, her gift would be about being an empath, aka she can sense people's feelings/auras and help the family and the people of the village with their emotional problems as a counselor. Her room would either be like a colorful counseling room, or an art studio because colors and emotions are mixed together to represent each other.
I always saw Mirabel's gift as her ability to open hearts and mend emotions in song. like the songs that happened in the film, some of them had actual events happen that effected the world in the long run yet no one batted an eye at the more elaborate parts. So what if that is her gift with the added effect of people not being able to notice it because it wouldn't work if they did. And mirabel doesn't notice because basically her whole life has been like this so she thinks it's normal to burst into song. And has the added effect of not having a door to cement her belief.
I really like this idea. It's really creative and I think this would be a great reflection of her empathetic nature. However I feel like her having the ability to see other people's memories and feel their emotions would also be a good idea.
This is exactly the power i had in thought for mirabel tho my concept for her room would be different like a garden and mini casita made out of pillows and blankets sort of like the pillow world from adventure time
I kinda have an idea of what her room might have been. Remember in Star vs the Forces of Evil where Moon and Eclipsa went to the royal archive room? Well, imagine that as a giant crafts room for knitting/sewing/crocheting with different kinds of needles, yarn, string, and fabric with arms included. That's how I see her room.
I think a good gift for mirabel would be to see everyone's true emotions around her. And maybe if she didn't want to see the emotions she could toggle her gift. In her room maybe there would be an area for her and townspeople or her family to talk out their feelings. In the rest of the room I think there would b just a bunch of things she likes. If you agree, reply or like.
I personally think that Mirabel did get a gift later on because all of the rooms in the house re set and the miracle wasn't based on the candle anymore. I think that Mirabels gift would be seeing peoples emotions because throughout the whole film she found out how everyone was really feeling inside :)
I think she’ll have like A butterfly room because she has butterflies on her and she will have a giant crafting room with knitting and other stuff and so she could actually like net and I’ll so happy for you and hang out with she’s a lot of things on a dress so maybe look at that and see what it might be
You know I’ve seen plenty of Mirabel’s gift concepts like teleportation and water breathing but they all miss one detail and that was how it could help the family and community which is exactly what’s being explained here
Calling this before I watch the vid. I think Mirabeau will have an intelligence based gift. So far her siblings seem to follow the beauty and the brawn so I think she would be that brain. She could be the logical able to solve problems (instead of fixing them physically or covering them up with a bouquet) she would work it out, maybe if write some stuff up like a brain map or smthing. This would also match her personality well since in the movie she seems decently intelligent. Also following classical stereotype tropes, she practically the first Disney female protagonist with glasses so that just adds to it. She would be able to calculate stuff quickly and resolve problems within the family the best way statistically possible that would please everyone. Istg if i say like the same things he said and people scream at me in the comments I’m heating myself out my window
I feel like the purpose of the movie was to prove that Mirabel didn't deserve a gift because she was already special, trying to make her family proud by helping. In the end, sh edidn't need to get a gift because all she got was the love from her family so if she did get a gift, it would've ruined the whole motivation of Mirabel's character.
In a way, not having a power was her gift if you think about it. Not being pressured into living a specific role like the rest of the family is what allowed her to break out of the unhealthy and dysfunctional mindset dragging them all down and help her family in the way they needed most by seeing beyond the fears and obsessions with being what others wanted or needed and putting that over their own needs.
During the dos oruguitas scene, I would imagine mirabel nitting a blanket for abuela and making progress throughout the song. When the song half finishes (not at the finale of the song) mirabel would just put her nitted blanket on Abuela before holding her hand And that's that lol
This is an awesome gift for Mirabel! It ties into her strengths and it would make an excellent AU where she still saves the miracle. Mirabel may have a gift in this AU but Casita and its inhabitants are still cracking under the pressure. When Mirabel realizes she can't quilt this problem away, she takes everything she's learned from her time being an overworked therapist and uses it to show Abuela that the drive to be perfect is breaking the family apart. It'd be a much quieter story, more focused on character work and difficult conversations, but it'd end just as happily as Mirabel would also learn that she doesn't need to solve everyone's problems. And she now has more time for non magical sewing and knitting!
I think this may not be true but if she had the gift at the end of enchanto YES! But it wouldn't when she first touch the door because she was a different person and developed those traits later on so she would have a trait that fit mini maribelle but we didn't really see mini maribelle that much so I don't really know what gift.
@thisisyouraverageperson she can see what happened to make them hurt. Like at the end of the movie, when the grandmother told her what happened to her husband
Honestly, I didn't analyze as much as you did. I thought of Mirabel having the power to fly with butterfly wings because of her dress and her wings would change colours depending on how she felt. Would work well with Isabela's gift since she has the power to grow flowers and Mirabel is basically a talking walking butterfly soooooo
So Encanto, of almost any recent Disney movie I believe has the most potential for an animated series, there's a large cast. many scrapped cast and plot elements that could be reintroduced. a very dense main location. and an entire alternate plot about going to Abuela's hometown that could be reworked to fit a post-movie scenario. I love the idea of Mirabel getting that gift you talked about. maybe it could be a thing that Bruno gives her a vision to work towards getting that gift rather than just getting it suddenly and undermining her entire arc of the movie. maybe have it where villagers start to earn gifts somehow to reintroduce cut madrigal characters that sounded like a lot of fun.
Unfortunately, Abuela would work her to the bone, giving Mirabel a problem with sharing her own problems, and having frequent private meltdowns.
TRUEEE
That is going to be a very big or very thick quilt. Her hands will be so tired after that and probably develop arthritis
The not sharing her own problems, and having frequent private meltdowns just sounds like Steven Universe Future to me honestly
Abuela stopped being the candle holder
Mirabel kinda *is* the candle holder now.
This was so adorable. To me this is perfect. The only thing I would feel bad is that the grandma would probably have her start helping immediately from when she was young. I mean imagine being like 9 and some guy comes in about how his wife is cheating on him
Yeah lol
@Y/n /Kaylee or listener What does au mean?
@@memefaison6007 alternative universe
Would the cheater be banned from encanto? Like, abuela would probably feel disgust from someone like that
Or she could help Alma heal from her trauma
Knowing Mirabel, she'd probably have a bowl of Julieta's food, so she could give it to them and then place the quilt around them.
*Mirabel giving Bruno a therapy knitting*
Mirabel: And what do we say when we feel this way?
Bruno: Press F to pay respects.
*Mirabel stops knitting, awkward silence follows*
Mirabel: ...N-no. Where did you hear that?
Bruno: Future.
Mirabel: ...ok...

Mirabel already had a gift in the movie. She was capable of turning anything Into a musical number.
Yes thats true
Yes and Mirabel is related to the castità

Not only that a great musical number that people obsess over and reveals dark truths. Like therapy via song
I can agree but i think mirabel's gift will be to be invisible and here's why
do you all remember the song "wetting on a miracle " and you know why she even sing this song

So, my friend has a theory that all the gifts were given specifically in case a war were to come to the Encanto. So how would this gift play into that I wonder.
Maybe to help people heal from the trauma of war? IDK, just an idea 🤷♀️
When they captured any enemies Mirabel could use the legendary anime technique Talk no Jutsu to convince them to switch sides
Her room could make guns, bombs, tanks etc. The casita could probably allow those out of the room when needed.
Bad theory
That theory dosnt make much sense
People have made gifts that involve her crafting skills, and this one is definitely one the list.
she could potentially heal abuela’s traumas, thus saving the miracle again!
I love this theory for Mirabel’s power! It does make me wonder how Abuela would suppress it, though. Maybe she would be so pressured to make the feel-good quilts that she doesn’t think about other things she could make (living stuffed animals, sweaters with corny jokes, etc.) Maybe her song with Isabella could be more of them helping and relating to each other rather than just Mirabel helping Isabella.
Man, you are knocking this movie out of the park with all these videos you make about it!
This AU is absolute gold.

I found a new connection between Abuelo Pedro, Abuela Alma and Mirabel. In the audiobook of the Encanto animated film by Disney Press. The audiobook says that Pedro owned a dress shop in the original town that they lived in. After being saved by Pedro from raiders in front of his shop, Alma learned how to sew and started to work with Pedro. My theory is that the sewing machine that is in Mirabel's room, originally was owned by Pedro and Alma. Maybe Abuela taught Mirabel how to sew some time before her fifth birthday and Gift Ceremony. Which would explain why Mirabel loves to sew so much! 😁🧵✂
I love that idea! It fits perfectly with her character.
Ya
@du23💖 I’m 9 and I read it all
I feel like her gift could have been crafting. Every time a problem would come up she could make incredible invetions out of scarce materials.
Her room would be very colourful and full of crafting materials so she would always offer everyone free invetions if they were in need
This is amazing, the gift, and the room but I do have 1 thing to say, the gift is a bit much to explain, for example:
Camilo : He Shapeshifts
Luisa: has Super Strength
Bruno: See's and tells the future
Pepa: mood changes the weather
Almost all gifts can be explained in 2-5 words but mirabel's really can't, doesn't rlly matter though I just wanted to point it out
This video's intro was just, the most. XD
Good video! 👍I also think she would have a power based on knitting but more or less like Kubo. Being able to create life through knitting, or sewing something so that they can help around the town.
when i first watched the movie, i was thinking Mirabel would be revealed to have empathic power. like the power to know how someone is feeling, and maybe even go into their mind (like Psychonauts). She could also have the ability to telepathically communicate even at long distends. i do like the knitting room but i would add see has stuffed and/or knitted represented of the family maybe even some of the towns people, like a crochet butterfly for Alma or stuffed cactus for Isabela.
I remember in that one song, everything except Mirabel gets slowed, this is probably either in her mind OR is a time slowing power
Honestly, that gift is pretty perfect, but I don’t think it should be limited to quilts
After all, Mirabel’s creative outlet isn’t focused on just one thing
She like to make personalized things with embroidery, sewing, and knitting
Soft fabric things that are stitched together and decorated
I’d say add more things
Maybe she takes what the person says, and figured out how to personalize it for them
A plushie for a little kid who lost a pet, a sweater for a man who’s mother died, a blanket for a woman who feels anxious and doesn’t know how to talk it out, stuff like that
Comfort objects, if you will
I had the theory where the powers are given to fix the character flaws. Antonio was lonely, so was given animal friends. Isabella must be perfect, so was given plant manipulation, which she could only use for flowers.
So with how positive Mirabel is, I didn't think she needed a power. but in 'waiting for a miracle' she wants her relative's powers to prove herself. So I was thinking that a power to borrow gifts could fit. We can stretch this to Mirabel borrowing Abuella's matriarch powers too.
And the room idea with the museum can still fit this because borrowing gifts celebrates her family.
I had a thought that maybe Mirabel's gift had something to do with being good with children and the nursery really was meant for her. She was meant to help the next generation in the way she did Antonio and even the village kids.
What if she’s the next candle, the new catalyst for their family powers….
Yeah that theory is everywhere and I kinda prefer the one in the video over it because technically it’s already hers and everyone else’s job to keep the miracle burning and on top of that she’d still have no powers.
You know how in the movie, you get visual interpretations of the different members' stress? Like during Luisa's song and during Abuela's flashback? What if that was her gift. To be able to visually see these scenarios like we're seeing in the movie?
Thats a Great AU!!!
Only 1 Nitpick
Instead of the Magic room being Made of yarn, Id instead suggest that it has a number of Butterflies that spin and sew the items together, and when they are not being called Upon, they sleep in Cocoons that line the walls.
Plus the Wall that Leads to the Hall being bare of the Cocoons, with a Massive Loom that Mirabel can use to make the New Memory Quilts
Your idea was much more interesting than mine was (because i admit that i as well was unable to stop my mind from going “I love this, but what if”)
My idea was that she would be able to sort of generate crafting supplies. She’d use them to make little diy gifts - like that plushie tiger from the film canon - for anyone who needed cheering up. They wouldn’t have been magic, but I feel like a lot of times they’d’ve helped people feel better on virtue of how much love and care she put in each present.
(And they wouldn’t have been just plushies; she’d be able to make other things, each specifically tailored to the individual she was making them for. Like if the bald guy was sad about being a bald guy, Mirabel could make him a cool hat)
Encanto is the only movie I actually felt like rewatching the next week after watching it, just immediately happy to watch it again
I think her gift would be to see people's memories, she can learn about their trauma and help make them feel better by understanding what they are going through idk
These Encanto videos are awesome and some of your best videos yet! You should make a lot more of these in the future! Maybe even talk about Disney’s other 3D animated movies!
I don't think her room would be "all knitted wool" in the first room, more like... It's a room like Casita, but with the room having knitted draping's, knitted covers for the supports, knitted carpets on the wooden floor, and also maybe a magic window that looks outside, then the door is at the other end of the room, where the extra stuff is, and those rooms are also styled like Casita, but with that Mirabel flair added onto it.
Since well... Her and Casita were like close friends
I think her gift would be to be able to bring life to anything she makes/draws. It would be fitting because she has a wide imagination and love for DIY
I definitely agree more with this gift theory then my own! Mine was that she has x-ray vision.
( To partner with Dolores’s super hearing and to maybe get rid of the glasses?)
No the glasses can be a way to control her magic like with the glasses on she wouldn't be able to see peoples privacy!
I have to say it, "Mochila Bag" it's very funny because "Mochila" means bag in spanish so it translates to Bag Bag.
I imagine her power would reflect the miracle since she longed for one her self. and people theorize about her gift is influencing magic, right?
SO SHE WOULD SHOOT CANDLES OUT OF HER HAND-
If Mirabel was conventionally gifted her room could have been filled with books, music instruments, art supplies or scientific equipment
OK since we’re gonna go with the knitting thing let’s say that it’s like her sister Isabella So she can control the threads and she has two magic needles that can instantly make new threads she can control.
And the room I will say is gonna be pretty similar because it’s still gonna be covered with threads but she can just instantly control them she can like make them grow into like a huge snakes oh nobody can get in or she can just like control usage to grow around The door so no one can leave while they’re having a talk or something like that maybe can even be like her sister Isabella‘s room where she can just have her bed on hanging from the ceiling
I think I know why Mirabel didn't get a gift. In her gift ceremony, I noticed that after she touches the candle, she wipes the wax residue off her hands and on her dress. I think you need to keep he residue on your hands and after touching the knob the magic would clean it up for you.
honestly, I like this idea the same as "her power would be to knit stuff and it comes to life"
I feel like if Mirabel did have a gift, based on her personality of helping her family take a load off of being *perfect*, her gift would be about being an empath, aka she can sense people's feelings/auras and help the family and the people of the village with their emotional problems as a counselor. Her room would either be like a colorful counseling room, or an art studio because colors and emotions are mixed together to represent each other.
If I had to give Mirabelle a gift it would be anything she draws comes to life .
During my first watch of encanto I noticed how good she was at knitting too
She should be able to spread love wherever she goes
Pedro watching this: 🤦🏻 *”why didn’t I think of that???”*
I always saw Mirabel's gift as her ability to open hearts and mend emotions in song. like the songs that happened in the film, some of them had actual events happen that effected the world in the long run yet no one batted an eye at the more elaborate parts. So what if that is her gift with the added effect of people not being able to notice it because it wouldn't work if they did. And mirabel doesn't notice because basically her whole life has been like this so she thinks it's normal to burst into song. And has the added effect of not having a door to cement her belief.
I think her gift would be something simpler, based on one of the aspects of her personality/interests, not all of them.
I really like this idea. It's really creative and I think this would be a great reflection of her empathetic nature. However I feel like her having the ability to see other people's memories and feel their emotions would also be a good idea.
I think that her gift would be anything that she drew/knitted would come to life
This is exactly the power i had in thought for mirabel tho my concept for her room would be different like a garden and mini casita made out of pillows and blankets sort of like the pillow world from adventure time
I do really like the idea of Mirabel helping people feel better emotionally
I personally think her gift would be the ability to read other people's emotions. Though, I have no idea what her room would look like.
i love your voice so much! also amazing work, i love your editing
I kinda have an idea of what her room might have been. Remember in Star vs the Forces of Evil where Moon and Eclipsa went to the royal archive room? Well, imagine that as a giant crafts room for knitting/sewing/crocheting with different kinds of needles, yarn, string, and fabric with arms included. That's how I see her room.
I can also Imagine Maribel saying: Luisa my room, now!
that knitting is a clever idea :)
And her room would be rainbow walls and sun grass sky but then when she draw something it would come to life, so she decorates your room
I think a good gift for mirabel would be to see everyone's true emotions around her. And maybe if she didn't want to see the emotions she could toggle her gift. In her room maybe there would be an area for her and townspeople or her family to talk out their feelings. In the rest of the room I think there would b just a bunch of things she likes. If you agree, reply or like.
I personally think that Mirabel did get a gift later on because all of the rooms in the house re set and the miracle wasn't based on the candle anymore. I think that Mirabels gift would be seeing peoples emotions because throughout the whole film she found out how everyone was really feeling inside :)
I think she’ll have like A butterfly room because she has butterflies on her and she will have a giant crafting room with knitting and other stuff and so she could actually like net and I’ll so happy for you and hang out with she’s a lot of things on a dress so maybe look at that and see what it might be
In that AU imaginé you making something like clothes or a cape out of one of Mirabel's therapeutic blankets
Her gift would be the ability to turn into a clown.
i wanna see another what if thing about "What if mike became friends with randall instead of sully"
Obviously she can stop time
Remember waiting on a miracle
At 1:34 nice use of jontron clips
I love how much content we're getting from you right now 😊
You know I’ve seen plenty of Mirabel’s gift concepts like teleportation and water breathing but they all miss one detail and that was how it could help the family and community which is exactly what’s being explained here
Calling this before I watch the vid.
I think Mirabeau will have an intelligence based gift. So far her siblings seem to follow the beauty and the brawn so I think she would be that brain. She could be the logical able to solve problems (instead of fixing them physically or covering them up with a bouquet) she would work it out, maybe if write some stuff up like a brain map or smthing. This would also match her personality well since in the movie she seems decently intelligent. Also following classical stereotype tropes, she practically the first Disney female protagonist with glasses so that just adds to it. She would be able to calculate stuff quickly and resolve problems within the family the best way statistically possible that would please everyone.
Istg if i say like the same things he said and people scream at me in the comments I’m heating myself out my window
At the end she does get a gift. The family is together. And the house is saved
Mirabel's gift is that she got to yell at her grandmother with no consequences
I feel like the movie would've Also worked even with Mirabel having this gift.
5:33
The smack sound is perfection!👌
I feel like the purpose of the movie was to prove that Mirabel didn't deserve a gift because she was already special, trying to make her family proud by helping. In the end, sh edidn't need to get a gift because all she got was the love from her family so if she did get a gift, it would've ruined the whole motivation of Mirabel's character.
In a way, not having a power was her gift if you think about it.
Not being pressured into living a specific role like the rest of the family is what allowed her to break out of the unhealthy and dysfunctional mindset dragging them all down and help her family in the way they needed most by seeing beyond the fears and obsessions with being what others wanted or needed and putting that over their own needs.
I think maribel's gift would be that she can look at someone and know what they're feeling and immediately make them happy
During the dos oruguitas scene, I would imagine mirabel nitting a blanket for abuela and making progress throughout the song. When the song half finishes (not at the finale of the song) mirabel would just put her nitted blanket on Abuela before holding her hand
And that's that lol
The thumbnail though-
I like your idea. It really seems to fit her personality.
This is an awesome gift for Mirabel! It ties into her strengths and it would make an excellent AU where she still saves the miracle. Mirabel may have a gift in this AU but Casita and its inhabitants are still cracking under the pressure. When Mirabel realizes she can't quilt this problem away, she takes everything she's learned from her time being an overworked therapist and uses it to show Abuela that the drive to be perfect is breaking the family apart. It'd be a much quieter story, more focused on character work and difficult conversations, but it'd end just as happily as Mirabel would also learn that she doesn't need to solve everyone's problems. And she now has more time for non magical sewing and knitting!
I think this may not be true but if she had the gift at the end of enchanto YES! But it wouldn't when she first touch the door because she was a different person and developed those traits later on so she would have a trait that fit mini maribelle but we didn't really see mini maribelle that much so I don't really know what gift.
I love your encanto videos
Imagine if Mirabel's gift was to see into the past. Like Bruno's gift but the opposite direction
How would that help except to dig up secrets about people? I dunno, it’s weird
@thisisyouraverageperson she can see what happened to make them hurt. Like at the end of the movie, when the grandmother told her what happened to her husband
I really like the idea of knitting though
This is really good for Mirabel, and this seem like a gift she would have!
Honestly, I didn't analyze as much as you did. I thought of Mirabel having the power to fly with butterfly wings because of her dress and her wings would change colours depending on how she felt. Would work well with Isabela's gift since she has the power to grow flowers and Mirabel is basically a talking walking butterfly soooooo
So Encanto, of almost any recent Disney movie I believe has the most potential for an animated series, there's a large cast. many scrapped cast and plot elements that could be reintroduced. a very dense main location. and an entire alternate plot about going to Abuela's hometown that could be reworked to fit a post-movie scenario. I love the idea of Mirabel getting that gift you talked about. maybe it could be a thing that Bruno gives her a vision to work towards getting that gift rather than just getting it suddenly and undermining her entire arc of the movie. maybe have it where villagers start to earn gifts somehow to reintroduce cut madrigal characters that sounded like a lot of fun.
That gift would suit her perfectly because it illustrates her helping people with there problems and her knack for knitting
That was smooth with the au
🤯 good ideas bro
