    I always wanted Cupid to end up alone! I know it sounds a bit dark, and I do love her, but I also love the concept of a goddess whose job is to give everybody love, yet cannot find it herself, and she's doomed to forever live in the service of something that never favored her. Plus, the show portrays Cupid's love for Dexter a tad bit like a joke, or a silly crush, while Dexter's love for Raven is portrayed as genuine and sweet, so I was always rooting for the relationship that felt the most real.

      @@lemoncakess I LOVE HER SHES A CUTIE but let's be real she had some other better plots, like being behind the radio show or going against the rules for love.
      that particular sideplot would been a great way of showing how confident and sure of herself she is. Dang, like dang she organized a whole movement to throw a party in the name of love, slay queen.

      @@cosxysit’s honestly pretty basic it’s what anyone watching the show would expect. it feels like angst for the sake of being angsty and a subversion of expectipns isn’t exactly a subversion if everyone expects it. I think that her matching somebody else with a partner but that relationship not working out and crushing on cupid would’ve been more interesting.

    I feel like the reason for C.A Cupid personality change was her reflecting the world she was in views on love like in MH her personality was mysterious and mischievous because in MH love was more realistic the whole theme of the movie she was first introduced in was reality vs expectations aka real vs false love and in EAH it’s very well fairytale kinda love with love at first sight and true love kisses and happily ever after and marry the first person that shows interest in you and as a love deity Cupid probably reflects on the peoples ideas of love just a theory of mine amazing video ❤❤❤❤❤

    Cupid has always been my favourite character, and so badly wish there was more to her besides Dexter and that nonsense, like they had so many opportunities with her that they wasted. Like you brought up the question of did she even deserve her destiny not being blood related and all, who her bio parents are, and if a god of love would be bound to make everyone fall in love but never find true love themselves? Like I needed more!

    I always thought it would've been interesting if Cupid was actually from EAH's world originally but her birth parents didn't want her to grow up in a world where relationships were predetermined (like how Daring and Apple allegedly were) and sent her to MH's world to learn how actual romantic relationships work. But instead we got a boring love triangle. 😑

  • @sevnair
    @sevnair 5 місяців тому +20

    I wouldn't call it a love triangle. Its unrequited love. Dexter nor Raven showed any romantic interest in Cupid. (Which would be required to be a love triangle.)

  • @joannayawn154
    @joannayawn154 5 місяців тому +24

    Alas, I think they didn’t wrap up Cupid’s arc and the love triangle because they wanted to keep the story going as long as the doll line could keep going! It especially frustrated me when they would never wrap up Cerise’s arc! They just wanted to keep the characters in a state of constant tension because they really didn’t know when the doll line itself would end! It is frustrating!

  • @kendraroth1276

    I think it all boils down to some really scummy corporate executive meddling on Mattel's part that would eventually lead to the downfall of Ever After High as a whole, not just C.A. Cupid. Like they completely toned her down in order to make her more marketable or something. Like as though she didn't fit the EAH brand.

    Elsa both her designs in Ever After High and Monster High are both amazing and also I love the episode where Cupid decides that she's going to work on herself instead of trying to find someone else to fill the hole that Dexter left because she had a huge giant crush on him he didn't know and also didn't see her that way and I love how she eventually was able to decide that she doesn't need guys in her life she can just be single and be happy

      But idk, both shows have different art styles, so I can’t really see them crossing into each other. Not that that stops shows since you can create the characters in the same style.

    I hope Cupid will appear in generation 3 bc she deserves more attention in monster high franchise 😩🤞🏻

    I absolutely adore Cupid as a character, and tbh I really want to write a little concept, but it’d be so cool if she was still very monstrous even in the eah world, since the idea that she’s native to the MH world, o love the theory that she’s a Bone Elemental, her having to hide behind the facade of a sweet little cherub while knowing that the students of EAH would react adversely to her true nature, maybe sorta an opposite to the story of Psyche and Eros, where Psyche thought Eros was a monster until she saw his real face

    Since Eros is her father, its kind of obvious her mom IS Psique.

    They have a daughter that is the goddess of happiness.

    Thanks for the re-upload, I enjoyed it and learned so much about C.A Cupid, Keep it up and keep this series going.
    If possible, could you do an anime and manga review on Kyou Koi wo Hajimemasu also known as Today Our Love Begins, a 2008 shojo manga that is completed and it has two ova episodes that came in 2010, the music for the series is good, along with the character designs and art style. My problem with Kyou Koi wo Hajimemasu is the relationship between the two leads, Tsubaki Hibino(the female lead) and Kyouta Tsubaki(the male lead), although their relationship does get a bit better in the manga, how it started was horrible, especially on Kyouta's part( he reminded of Sata from Wolf Girl and Black Prince, another shojo series I did not enjoy). It also has a live-action movie
    Give this series a watch and a read if you want to, I hope in the future, Kyou Koi wo Hajimemasu will have a full anime adaptation that follows the manga because even though I didn't enjoy the series, I don't think those two episodes ova didn't do the manga justice.
    As for Maid Sama, season two should happen yet I feel that Misaki and Usui are red flags in my opinion.
    As always, thank you for your videos, they are amazing ^^

    Fun fact, the story of Cupid and Psyque is closer to a fairytale than a myth, being sort of the roman version of Beauty and the Beast. In the tale Psyque has a peofecy that she will marry a being even the gods hate, wich she takes to mean a horrible monster, and her sisters tell her it's a dragon, later is revealed to actually be Cupid, feared because not even gods can resist his power. All this to say that it makes sense for C.A. Cupid to be able to exists as the "kid of a monster" and the "kid of a fairytale character".

    Cupid is one of those characters that I relate to because I'm also a little bubbly and sensitive also I feel really bad for her because true love is one of the things she dreams to find and her destiny is never to find it but help others find it it seems quite unfair to me that she has to endure such responsibility yes I did like Dexter and Raven's relationship but I also want to keep it to find someone that actually genuinely liked her and not getting stuck in a love triangle if ever after high actually dealt with her character more I feel like we could have seen more of cupid and her personality and her character to grow emotionally into actually finding other possibilities of love than just crushing over Dexter 😅
