I agree with you, Monica on the improvement on how Percy reacts to his mom’s “death”. I saw a meme of how Logan Lerman Percy reacted like he’d lost or forgot his homework
I love the first episode, but I loved this one more, it's got everything: Annabeth being a badass queen, Clarisse being absolutely terrifying, Mr. D being hilariously himself, amazing chemistry between all the characters. I can't wait to see how it goes from here!!!! edit: also Percy being the OG mama's boy: "I'm Sally Jackson's son" I SOBBED
I’m pretty sure the voice is Kronos as I remember in the book something about the voice from the pit calling him and that when he goes to the underworld the voice is the same from the dream
I really loved episode 2. It was so much better than episode 1. It introduced more of the campers, Camp Half-Blood, Annabeth, Clarisse and Luke. So my favorite scenes in episode 2 are the bathroom, the Capture the Flag, and Percy being claimed by Poseidon scenes. They were done so well.
I felt very ambivalent when Dion was cast. I thought she was way too attractive but omg she reflects Clarrise's personality and aggressiveness so well. Her almost feral and vicious demeanor, and that scream my goodness. Absolutely perfect. She is tall/muscular, maybe not how I pictured her in the book, but she doesn't appear weak at all.
@ejburgess, I'm glad she doesn't appear weak at all. However, she's more calculating and less of a bruiser than books Clarisse, her agression is being channeled through her personality and mind rather than her appearance. The actress seems like a better choice for Reina Ramirez who appears later on.
Not gonna take anything away from Percy, but if you like YA novels I recommend looking into reading the Skullduggery Pleasent series. Kinda like Harry Potter but with an intelligent young girl/teen/woman. I lowkey think that if that series had gotten famous instead of other YA series, the world would be a better place.
Orange is the new black ? I must say i really found it a bit weird that the run around there with orange t-shirts, for me that fits so absolutely not to the setting. For greek gods we normally are more used to white/gold or for fantasy more maybe brown letaher or whatever. But these prison style clothings are weird.
The concept of the series is the combination of Greek mythology and mundane life. Yes it is a safe haven/training ground for demi gods, but it is also a summer camp. That's why they wear the cheesy orange shirts, because that is the kind of clothing they would have at a summer camp.
Annabeth calling Percy sunshine gave me a heart attack, my babies😭😭
I like to think that it might be a little joke at how walker looks like he could be will solace 😆
Leah is killing it as Annabeth already and it’s only been 1 episode!!!

i love that we can ignore the fact that clarisse's actress is pretty cause percy sees everyone he hates as ugly lol
basically he sees every non annabeth as "eh:/"

I REMEMBER WHEN THEY ANNOUNCED THE AUDITIONS????? HOW HAS IT COME OUT????
I loved the first episode but this one was even better, it had such a books feel. Also just so you know there are little post credit scenes as well.

Monica, if you were still wondering, Mr. D is played by Jason Mantzoukas.
Love your reactions, and love Percy Jackson. So this is best of both worlds, but don’t stress yourself out working too hard!! ❤
I’m in love with Dior
She was absolutely fantastic in the role 🫶🏻
+ the books are through Percy’s POV & he didn’t like her so maybe that’s why?
i literally finished watching this an hour ago and i loved every second of it
excited to watch this reaction!

I’m so happy the invisible hat is back in this series. Heck yeahhhhh stealth
this is gearing up to be my favorite show of all time fr
It's so well done
8:31 UA-cam when a youtuber says a swear word
Your look is giving Annabeth vibes :D love it
So much fun it's like the true aquaman I've I mean it's like a aquaman origin
If I recall in the books Clariss was very tall and muscular, had short hair and a masculine face, she very much looked like a boy.

Dior is different from book Clarisse but I prefer her take so much more, she is so good
@thatonkgau5221, So a tomboy, lol

If you were a Demigod Monica who would most likely be your Olympian parent?
Btw season two to what if is here
I know. I’m watching it in my own time but not making content on it this time
Correct answer: NO. Hopefully we can get an adaptation a few years from now that ACCURATELY adapts the books.

they wear the same shirts in the book
