    Your explanation for Shadow High's unusual skintones sounds reasonable. I don't think MGA will ever give a lore reason for it though, unfortunately. I think the real non-lore reason is that MGA is trying to use Shadow High's aesthetic to compete with Monster High, as they made sure to release Shadow High before Monster High Gen 3 got released, and the name Shadow High was first used in the Monster High/Ever After High crossover novel, 'The Legend of Shadow High', so I feel like MGA knew what they were doing when they copyrighted that specific name for their doll line. Shadow High with the brighter skintones just feels like a calculated, personal attack on Monster High by MGA from a more corporate perspective in my opinion, and I have to admit that as someone who loved the greyscale and the darker color schemes, the move to add brighter colors for most of the newer characters just feels wrong to me. I love Shadow High, and it is my personal favorite doll line to release since Monster High Gen 1, with Veronica and Naomi being two of my favorite dolls of all time, but I cannot help but look at it from a more objective, analytical, perspective at times, as I do with every doll line. As for Rainbow High's lore, I wish that it was more consistent as well. I guess MGA still hasn't mastered the art of creating lore for their doll shows as much as Mattel has (MH Gen 1 and the classic Barbie movies are masterpieces when it comes to doll show/movie lore in my opinion.).

      The one thing that could help Shadow High is if there was a pop of color somewhere. The thing is white and black are actually not colors. They are pure light and the absence of light, respectively
      Edit: MH Reel Drama did Shadow High's aesthetic (or rather color palette) but better

    To me something that doesn't make sense is the incompetence of the De'Vious twins.
    I understand that they are spoiled, arrogant and not nice at all, but that doesn't justify their incompetence in school.
    In Radiant Week we see how they can't even stay on topic, which is perspective. And my question is... How is this possible? We see how Lou Wright makes two revisions to the projects. She is so harsh with her feedback that it makes Amaya cry... So what did she do when she saw the twins' project? Did she say nothing at all or just don't care?

    I think the hair colors thing is actually a mix of both being born with bright colored hair (say green or pink) and changing it as you grow older. Karma as we know has brown roots, and Amaya frequently dyes her hair as well. And Avery has short pink hair but wears wigs. As for the clothes, it could just be brought down to personal style choices between each character. For the Shadow High skin colors, for some, like most likely Neon Shadow, it could be full body makeup.
    As for Bella’s expulsion, I believe she was found out thanks to security cameras. I personally also headcanon that Jade was the one to reveal what Bella did to the principal, albeit accidentally. Hence why she was the most depressed when Bella left, guilt.

    My theory is that season three was a mess in forms of plot because it wasn’t supposed to air that way, remember they took an entire month to upload a new video? I guess they had planned other plot lines for Pacific Coast high but they were forced to launch new dolls and therefore push their storylines into the webisodes with the announcement of Monster High’s return.

    My personal headcannon is that the Shadow High characters wear makeup to make themselves look monochromatic, to fit with the "Shadow" part of Shadow High. And Neon Shadow uses makeup to make themselves neon, to fit their band name. Although I do wish they'd address it in canon, just to clear up the confusion.

    By the way, you were wrong about how Bella got back into Rainbow high. Bella made up the story of how she flew to New York to take back her submission. But literally two seconds later she says “just kidding” and proceeds to tell the real story. She called Lou Wright ever day until she finally said yes and then made her do community service. Idk how you missed that but ok.

    First of all, I'm surprised the video is not like 12 hours long :p
    The "runway is your final project" is hella unfair for students that aren't directly fashion designers. In universe, it wouldn't matter how much work someone like Poppy or Sunny did, all the credit would go to Skylar and Amaya, and maybe Jade.
    The cheerleader "uniforms" I have to assume they were just an example and were going to give the actual cheerleaders personalized uniforms too, which is why they kept theirs
    About Shadow High... well, my funny headcanon is that they're forced to bathe in sharpie to fit in. My actual headcanon is that RH is all about "Making your colors shine", while SH is more cutthroath and is "Earn Your Colors", and they use a machine similar to the one that Amaya used in season one, and the better the grades/creativity, the more colors the students earn, even with the option of going off the rails with their skin and eyes.
    And I know is the boring stuff, but I would be hella interested to see an actual class on any of the schools. Do they even have normal classes?

    I actually believe the Shadow High skin tones are purely for us visually. Think about it. In magical girl anime, the transformations in universe are a second long. Just one bright light and they’re ready to go. So I think their skin is non-diegetic, just in visual form? I hope that made sense. Like, in universe they have regular skin tones

    Bella Parker’s expulsion was confusing to me too. I always felt that she was hiding the real reason she got back in to rainbow high. However, when she finally told the truth about how she got back in, I was like “seriously? That’s it!?” Like, how did she manage to sneak backstage without being caught? And how did sending the picture back to Lou Wright get her back in to rainbow high? I never understood that. It seemed way too far-fetched to me. I mean, she knew she would be expelled for submitting a picture of student work, so why did she think she would get away with it? I understand that she really wanted to be chosen to work with Ramona Barns, but she should have thought things through instead of making a rash decision.

  • @equinoxflowersofcenturysen5881

    I think the thing that makes the least sense to me is Rainbow Highs policy on not sharing student work. I think thats suspicious as heck. Why would the principal want to hinder chances of their student's future success in that way? Especially if she is friends with Romona. It just seems unnecessarily cruel. It really makes me wonder what kinda school Rainbow High is.

    Alot of your points are true. Rainbow High didn't make sense. There isn't enough details to make the series make sense for adults. Kids don't really care in a whole. They prefer the 'make their own stories' in play.
    MGA is trying to get dolls out to match with kids likes and names.
    Shadow High always gave me the 'undead' vibe. Seriesly. Ever saw a dead body? They are pasty skin with lack of blood circulation. This also made a little sense that Luna and Sunny were opposites as life and death. Luna died.
    Pacific coast dolls kind of sucked in my opinion. Seriously why have detachable legs that can easily be lost? They didn't have the cartoon characters change whole legs for shoes. Not to mention the doll legs were hard to change. I am sure kids broke their dolls trying to change the legs.
