alright y’all this clip just came out and i’m gonna say this right now: i don’t think that’s adora once she transforms
i’m not saying adora becomes a different person every time she transforms. that would be kinda weird. but, it’s really striking how different she acts once she takes the sword from glimmer. she goes from very emotionally vulnerable and shaken to… distant and cold.
the first time she transforms, she’s confused and frightened, and this is shortly before glimmer and bow capture her.
notice that she is not glowing, she’s being very emotional and, from what little we know of her, acting very much like herself.
now… compare to her transformation in the new clip.
the music becomes almost eerie as she slices the horde-bot in half.
she then gives glimmer a very… strange look. you’d think she would flash a smile or say something, but she just looks at her in silence. its hard for me to screenshot, but her eyes shimmer weirdly too, like they’re almost blank.
glimmer is pretty shocked too.
she then proceeds to walk on to the battlefield like a badass, glowing so bright that people have to squint and shield their eyes.
her face is stone cold. practically emotionless as she, somehow, manages to do the exact thing she needs to do.
the horde soldiers are taken down, and she looks at bow with the same look she gave glimmer. she almost looks… angry or contemptful, which is strange considering bow is apparently the only one who is nice to her before she switches sides.
its also worth noting that we see her glow a bit in the first trailer
(we only see her glow a couple times during that final battle sequence, the rest of the clips from it she looks normal.)
basically, it looks like that’s not adora. that’s she-ra. i don’t think this is exactly a possession type of situation, but something about becoming in this instant she-ra makes her different mentally. maybe she melded with the spirits of The First Ones in this moment? I don’t know. What do you guys think?
