      @@Unclaimeddemigod I'm not sure if you're still looking for unpopular opinions to react to, but I have one.
      I really dislike the fandom's portrayal of Jason and Percy as "bros" and the closest of all friends.
      First of all, they barely know eachother during the quest, like you said, it takes place over a literal month. They are aquaintences at most throughout the series. Given time, they could become close friends, but never that "best friend" relationship the fandom shows.
      Secondly, this practically diminishes Grover and Percy's friendship that has been developed over the course of literal years. I would've loved to see Percy and Grover meeting after the events of HOO, it probably would've touched me more than Leo going back to get Calypso tbh (I kinda ship Caleo, but I find friendship 10× more important than romance.)

      Might be long but...
      um... the book series was not only kinda flat but had bad pacing.
      Gaia was spoken to sleep🤭
      Piper and Jason shouldn’t have happened they were not romantically suited.
      Leo also shouldn’t have had a partner it was so rushed and he attacked Percy outta nowhere for not freeing Calypso and it’s a big mess.
      Frank and hazel faded out to occasional help their storylines and POV cannon fodder
      Percy and Annabeth .... I love em I do but not HoO them. I’ll leave THAT as that.
      Gaia was such a WEAK antagonist so were the giants and Pasiphaë.
      I would’ve loved to have seen Drew Tanaka instead of piper a “typical Aphrodite girl” that somehow smashes stereotypes has a redemption arc and isn’t piper’s Mary-Sueish, “I’m not like other girls” _thing_
      Jason’s character was well also flat tbh for all of themystery” surrounding him in the lost hero we barely had a decent Thalia-Jason reunion and he was like as Leo said blonde superman except he was perfect and it was hard to root for him bcos his backstory was flimsy and accomplishments despite being cool weren’t anything to Percy who faded away in the background.....😬
      And I hated piper’s POV mainly bcos it was focused on Jason
      * everyone: hurt dying or sad
      * Piper: Jason! U have a cut!!! Have all the nectar and ambrosia!!
      Also the fandom pushes them as a group too much they spent a month together and yes under stress ... binding but we didn’t rly see that
      Thankyou for coming to my impromptu (unfinished I have ISSUES WITH THIS SERIES) Ted talk i do love it’s premise tho but it kind of soured my undying joy for the Riordan verse cos Gaia.... PRIMORDIAL!!.... piper... untrained known she was a Demi for one month ... says SLEEP and that’s that! NO😡

      I mean, to be fair, Reyna explained herself that she thought basically any guy she came across she could see something with. A lot of people with insecurity in their romantic life do this - crush on multiple people, I mean. Even Octavian, remember.
      Rachel and Percy spent a lot of time together, made sense.
      Calypso is literally cursed to fall for anyone who lands on her island.
      Percy is attractive and the Amazons like to dominate men, I was not shook at all.
      Nico was young and obsessed with mythomagic when he met literally his dream come true - the crush was very much expected.
      But yeah it's a fair amount of people but consider how many people fall in crush with celebrities, artists, and people they see online and have never met. People crushing is so genuinely common that it just doesn't shock me that someone who is good looking, funny, and carries himself well got a few crushes over the course of five years.

    I liked this video. Quick note - you don't think Thalia is feminine? I think the purpose of the hunters of artimis is to be an independent woman, and thalia definitly does makeup - she is always described with eyeliner (I could be wrong, its been a while since I read pjo, but I did just reread hoo) also, Reyna is an important female character as well.
    I am not trying to criticize your opinion, I think it is valid and there isn't very much femininity (is that the word?) But there is a little bit, and it should be mentioned.
    Your video was great and I loved hearing your opinions about other opinions!

    Ok I have to tell you this because it starts to be annoying. PERCY WEREN'T MISSING FOR A YEAR. It was like 7 months because when Jason wakes up in a bus (the Lost Hero) i don't remember which month was that but i know it's WINTER and Annabeth tells them that percy disappeared 3 days earlier. Also we know that the action of Son of Neptun happens in June and the Greek squad arrived at camp Jupiter at the end of this book so it's still JUNE. And if we know all this facts we also know that Percy and Annabeth didn't see each other for around 7 months.
    Anyway still great video and love you ❤ but you are saying that it was a year in literally every video so had to write this

    Ok what I’m about to say is not relevant to the video.
    People always say that The lightning thief takes place in 2005 but I think it actually takes place in 2006.
    Ok so yes I know that The lightning thief was published in 2005 but I think it took place in 2006.
    Ok here’s the evidence,
    If it took place in 2005 that would mean the sea of monsters took place in 2006, the Titans curse would be in winter of 2006, battle of the labyrinth in 2007 and the last Olympian in 2008.
    But here’s the problem in BotL it has references to thing that’s happened in 2008 so it’s impossible for it to take place in 2007.
    If you make the TLT in 2006 that would clean up the problems.

    I feel like Leo and Hazel had a nice friendship. I mean, yeah obviously it started a little weird but it actually developed kinda sweetly. Something to bear in mind is that Piper and Leo had more time together and Piper and Leo both had more feeling for Jason than they might have otherwise because of the false memories. I dunno. I don't take time as seriously in the book as I would in real life because if you've ever been in a traumatic situation with someone you don't know well in real life, you get close fast. It's a different kind of bond.
    On the Calypso thing - you have to remember that her curse was to "fall in love with whoever lands on her island" basically. It's not a representation of real life because, well, we don't have curses in real life, lol.

    Also, I wish I saw this when you first posted the video, and I'm not trying to be mean, but you're wrong about Hank and Frazel. They're only a year and 6 months apart in age, fairly sure. Frank was 15 about to turn 16 when he went to camp Jupiter and met Hazel when she was 14 and a half.
    They actually had more time together than what's been credited to them, and I think their falling in crush made more sense than some others.
    When you spend time with someone, especially in a traumatic sense and especially in a group, humans typically gravitate. It's normal, and let's not pretend there weren't friend groups going through the awkward "oh now they're together" thing all the time in HS. 🥴 I don't disagree that more platonic relationships would be fine, but if we really pay attention, there's a pretty clear reason why every relationship happened the way they did.
    Especially Leo and Calypso. It was made pretty certain how badly Leo wanted someone as his attractions were well read with multiple women, and then he crashed on the island of Calypso, who is cursed to fall for whoever lands there.
    Then she takes care of him, feeds him, helps him escape back to his friends - I was not at all shocked that he enjoyed her. She was made immortal, is stunningly beautiful per the books desc, and nurtured him even if for a short time.
