I still absolutely love how Wolfwalkers ended.

Love that it still ultimately focused on Robyn and Mebh and how they leave their old world behind to find a new one, just for them, their parents, and the wolf family to live in peace, far away from the townspeople. How after all that drama and near-death experiences, they just get to rest in the caravan, protected by their respective parent and live together in the forest.

No more societal expectations. No more gender roles. No need to appease a bunch of people who really only want them dead for what they are. No focus on these two literal children to change a town’s whole mindset like so many other films do. No, the message was just these two girls finding their happy ending with their loved ones somewhere else and just cutting out that toxic environment all together.

Why waste energy trying to help a bunch of people they don’t even have any real attachment to, after all? Especially with people who actively forced roles they didn’t want onto them and mistreated them for being different? It’s just such a breath of fresh air to see a film that ends with the characters finding happiness and peace in their own little slice of heaven, rather than wasting time, energy, and emotions on trying to change others.

Is it normal to always zoom in on drawings of your ship growing old together and try to find a ring somewhere???

Excuse me while I watch Wolfwalkers on repeat and obsess over how cute these two are

I’m reading the Wolfwalkers graphic novel, I missed these gay wolves X3

Interesting how shipping two little girls (in the “innocent first crush” sense) who are NOT confirmed to be step-sisters is considered “yiikes“, but thinking an adult woman and adult man who barely even interacted in the movie are married (because at most the man gave the woman a flower) is not worth a yikes?

If you think an adult woman and adult man can’t be platonic friends without it ending in romance, then I don’t know what to tell you. You people aren’t even trying to hide your heteronormativity.

Also side note, if you think giving someone a flower is romantic, let me remind you Robyn gave Mebh a flower, and Bill gave Robyn a flower too. It’s obviously just a sign of affection, including platonic.

The creators themselves said the ending is left open. So if you WANT to see them as step-siblings you can, but if you don’t want to see it like that, you don’t HAVE to. It’s definitely not canon, so you have no right to force it on other people.

I’m sorry, but I just don’t see them as step-siblings. Because 1) girls don’t need to be related to be close friends, and 2) I much prefer the innocent first crush angle, as someone who discovered her own sexuality by getting crushes on my childhood friends.

Bonus yikes for people who are okay with kid romances like Ponyo, but then make a problem of people seeing Wolfwalkers like that.
