My Das Haus Anubis Season 2 Review:

So this has been in my drafts for weeks and I just forgot about it. It's a mess.

Things I liked :

Almost every scene with Mara and Magnus together. They were the only couple that convinced me. I really liked seeing them doing those things for eachother and being there for one another. And them saying that they loved eachother. They are the only couple I buy their love.

Mara and Magnus' first kiss. For the standard of the show it was really great also in comparison to the others. Because I only saw that true love soulmate kiss with them. It was the most feelings involved. I also like how they slowly pull away and then look at eachother to realize what they did. The others also weren't good imo.

How after Mara got together with Magnus she only had eyes for him, her person. It was so cute. And she did look more in love with him than ever with Kaya.

The Benny storyline until Nina kissed him. It was fun to sub. Also because of the music and there seemed to be less talking. I LOVED that Benny came during the time there where problems with Mara and Magnus because he couldn't tell her what was going on. And even then she wasn't flirting with Benny like Nina did. I mean with Nina and Daniel everything was fine right before he came and she still cheated. It just was proof how strong their relationship is and Mara would never do something like that to Magnus. And with Nina and Daniel if they ever had any struggles, idk how they will pull it through. And Nina kind of just seemed to push Daniel very easily away. Because Idk it seemed like Benny wasn't there for long until Nina risked their relationship which does make it worse kind of. ( Also kind of unrealistic.) And I counted the days. I don't know if they are really canon because the timeline is pretty messed up.

Day One Daniel writes Nina a secret letter that he loves her. Which she doesn't receive. Benny comes at the same say and later in the evening Nina sees him for the first time in the coffin and thinks he's cute. Nothing too bad.

Day Two. The next morning Benny is making breakfast Nina is openly starring at him. After school Benny flirts with Nina at the girls floor and later before she goes in the cellar. And she looks like she's very smitten. A bit too much. That night she dreams about Benny kissing him.

Day Three. Nina is shocked about her dream. The next morning she and Benny accidently touch fingers. At school she fainted because she can't handle Benny. ( Which also made me thinking. Did they seriously sold Nina and Daniel as the main couple but then have Nina faint because she was so attracted to him. ) Benny " saves" her and later they flirt together on the couch. In the evening Nina decides to go to the cinema with Benny where later when they come home they almost kiss. ( Their lips where kind of slightly touching already)

Day Four Nina is flirting more openly with Benny. She has later an argument with Daniel. In the evening Benny and her kiss.

Day Five the next morning Nina is avoiding Benny. Her grandma got worse. Daniel is there gor her but later breaks up with her.

Day Six the Camping Trip. Nina writes Daniel an apology letter he forgives her. She gets kidnapped. In the evening Daniel and Delia try to visit her.

How after a while Mara starts noticing Radus weird relationship with Magnus aswell.

Victor being a dumbass. And not finding the secret room until the end. He's such an entertaining character. Haha.

Kayas character got like after the storyline with his sister pretty great. The fact that he forgives Max for not actually apologizing to him. Is really great of him. I also like how his always there for Daniel. He's a great friend.

Victor trying to play Raven at the beginning but failing at it. And Raven calling him Victor Emanuel Rodemer all the time. And overall their relationship.

That Magnus after a while learned how to manipulate Radus aswell. He's probably smarter than Victor and Raven haha

Daphne. She's a complete bitch. But I like how the actress played her. In this really flirty way kinda. She's was kind of funny at times especially when she tried to kill Mara and covered it up.

Magnus apologizing to Felix at the end. That was so cute. And I really loved that.

Magnus character development. From still being slightly greedy at the beginning of the Season to doing a really selfless act in the end of the Season when he locked Raven behind the secret wall. Because from his point of view it looked like he was just leaving his father to die. He still had some tiny little faith in Raven after all of this. And second he didn't know the Club was doing all this to save Nina's grandma. So him doing the right thing because he didn't want to betray them anymore. By that time he did believe that he would suffer more at the end when he did that.

Delia in general. She was truly shining in this season. Love how creative and clever she is.

The unprofessionalism of the nurses is beyond belief. And it was hilarious. What nurse leaves a choking dying patient alone just get a doctor? There are emergency calls. And how the just give Victor a colonic Irritation without his consent. I would sue the whole hospital if they did this to me.

Felix and Delia together or Luzy and Felix together it was a fun combo.

Daphne and Radus relationship. It was really interesting. I don't know if Radus may loved bombed her in the beginning and that's why she fell for him because she was desperately looking for love. I'm really interested to know how their relationship began. But I think there is alot of dependency on Daphnes part. Both are pretty messed up and they haven't healed their inner child.

The whole scene of Magnus stealing the grail was really funny. First, why on earth was he doing those Ninja moves? Did he fall on his head or something? Omg. imagine Mara came out of her room and saw him doing that shit. That's going to be her boyfriend in the future. And he says the others are crazy. I mean she already knows that he is insane. And second Victor. I don't know, doesn't he have a Pajama? But just the fact that he came in his usual clothing made me laugh so hard and also that none of the other kids decides to stand up. It's like the actor himself didn't even bother to get changed.

The kind of weirdly sexual relationship between Radus and Victor. There was too much sexual tension between them. Radus doesn't touch his wife like Victor.

I really liked Mara and Magnus building their trust during their relationship. Of course it wasn't helpful that Magnus had to lie to her. But it was either he endangers her or he lies to her. So I don't count that as " lying or ruining her trust" because he wasn't doing it for selfish reasons. Also that Mara didn't give him a reason not to trust him already in the beginning of the relationship. I think that made it easier for him aswell to open up. If Mara had something with Benny, he probably wouldn't get over it. And me neither. Idk if they would still be my favourite ship, but a part would be tainted.

Nina and Daniels weird date in the garden. I mean it was kind of cringe. And pretty forced how they just have to push them from friends to Lovers. But also kind of funny. How they didn't see the headphones. Delia and Kaya not being able to control themselves to not flirt with eachother. Delia talking about the Club, Kaya being there as well and not giving a shit.

Eventhough I think they were a bit rushed; I liked scenes of Charlotte and Luzy together and Luzy not wanting Charlotte to start something with Kaya.

I like Felix helping Mara and Magnus when they have problems. I like the dynamic of the three.

The tasks were fun at times and entertaining.

Amneris being there for Mara.

Things I didn't like:

Nina and Daniels Drama before they got together. I usually like slow-burn. But they just don't have any chemistry. I never saw any moments of like wanting to kiss eachother. I know this is common behaviour for teenagers. So I don't blame them for that. But I still found them annoying. And the first episodes where so hard to sub mainly to that. I was so glad when they were finally together. Not because I ship them, but because their whole drama was finally over.

Luzy whole crush on Kaya. Made no sense at all. I'm not sure if they did it to add more drama until Luzy and Max get together or because they had to use Kaya somehow as he's barely useful in Season 2 and they didn't want viewers to forget about him.

The whole thing with Delias scarf. I'm glad it didn't took too long. But why does Magnus know the scarf is from Delias father but Mara doesn't,? Mara isn't new like Noa in HHA. It also made no sense that she didn't know that Delia and Magnus disliked eachother. She knows that.

Nina's Jealousy kind of annoyed me with the Physics test. I'm not saying she's not allowed to be jealous. She's is allowed to feel whatever she wants. Those are her feeling and they are valid. But after that thing with Benny? And ESPECIALLY how she cheated on Daniel. Because she didn't even look like she cared about Daniel. And it's him who has comfort her and make her trust him. Eventhough it should have been the opposite. Realistically Nina should have gone out of her way to make Daniel trust him after her short infidelity.

Nina and Daniel having to kiss after Tut and Amneris got reunited. This was absolutely not a moment for them. They had one in the last Season Finale. Wasn't that enough?

Mostly the Club scenes. It was a struggle subbing them. They are such boring characters. Especially Nina and Daniel. However I like the Club the most in Season 2.

Benny lying to Nina that he was her boyfriend after he found out she lost her memory. I mean wtf is his problem? He should have just left then. The story is done. It also was bad so Daniel had to fight for her. Didn't really like that. And if she thought he was her boyfriend the kiss in the washroom wasn't the only one. But that doesn't count as it wasn't consensual. Anyways that whole thing was so messy yuck. I'm glad it wasn't Mara and Magnus. And it also seemed like Nina and Benny briefly dated or something. Because Daniel said something that Nina dumped Benny. But Benny should have been sued. No matter what Nina didn't deserve to be lied to after losing her memory.

What I would have done differently:

That if they broke Mara and Luzy's friendship apart or made them more distance that they did it differently. That Luzy could be pissed that Mara doesn't care that Linn doesn't come back and she's all about Kaya. Charlotte already comes then which makes Mara move in the attic much earlier. And Lotte and Luzy become friends then and not through this love and first sight kind of bs. But Luzy and Mara would later still be friends in S2.

That Mara and Kaya broke up sooner. Like it didn't even look like they were in a relationship anymore. Also Mara was pretty MUCH flirting with Magnus and way to close to him. In the park she even almost kissed him. I didn't care that much about Kaya around that time and neither do I believe that he loved Mara but he doesn't deserve to be cheated on. So I did wish that atleast she had the girlballs to break up with him. I'm glad she apologized to him later.

A scene of Magnus and Kaya talking it out. There seem to friends still. I never saw Magnus apologizing or anything. Then again after Mara came back it was like as if Mara and Kaya never dated. And Magnus apologizing would also be kind of weird if he starts dating Mara later. But I think they probably had a short conversation off screen. Or Kaya just realised how serious they were and that he didn't love Mara anyways.

Charlotte and Kaya had potential. But they really did them dirty. Charlotte liking him first without actually knowing him was a bad choice. It also made no difference for Kaya that maybe for once a girl likes him for who he is and not just his looks.

Nina and Daniel should have atleast broken up longer after the Benny thing. And also they did it alot worse than in HHA. But the same time their reconciliation was identical. And after they come from the hospital where Daniel breaks up. Nina doesn't even apologise to Daniel. Nienke does. And also Daniel says sorry to Nina for not being able to be with her anymore. But then again them getting together like a day after it was probably better for me while subbing. Because if they didn't there would be even more drama. But it's not very healthy imo. It would make sense that Daniel has some pent up resentment towards her. He does seem like the type of person who does that.

That Magnus told kind of said that he was also working with Raven because he was threatening him and Mara. He did it to get his father out of prison too But the guy also made sure that his father would stay in there longer and be assaulted. They don't really acknowledge that he was being emotionally abused. And it wasn't really easy for him to just not believing Raven wouldn't help him anymore.

Luzy could have still helped in the second part. She still did first part. And she managed to juggle the Club and the schoolnewspaper back then. And it didn't seem to make sense why she suddenly was so uninterested in it.

I wish we got to know more about Maras family background and her and Magnus talking about it. But I do think they talked about offscreen and Mara during that was probably too scared to do so.

Maybe show how it came to the Kaya and Charlotte kiss at the end. And how it seems like they are dating. Because they ate Falafel together and now they like eachother? ( Ugh... why did they do so many couples so terrible this Season? 😭 And then they just messed up Mara and Magnus in the movie. Did the writers smoke crack or something? )

Random:

Kaya really was kind of useless. And sometimes it felt like they did some storylines that were unnecessary. Just so Kaya is kind of relevant. The first one would be the whole MaraxMagnus and Kaya thing. Which was like from Ep 15-30 or something. Kaya didn't love Mara or make any sense why those two are still together. And then of course Charlotte's crush on Kaya. She can find him attractive, but the way she idolised him. And then the whole Benny thing. I mean liked the storyline in DHA. But it was pretty useless. But it also gave Kaya something to do. From Ep 45- 66 or something. And then right after we have Luzy believing for some damn reason that Kaya is her secret admirer. Again makes no sense at all. And this is from Ep 67-90 or something.

The motivation between Nienke and Nina with the Jimmy/Benny thing really felt different. I skipped alot in between those episodes. Nienkes main motivation does mainly look like because she was scared to choose Fabian fully bit she still clearly loved him. With Nina it was kind of like she had problems with Daniel as a person and that she was bored of him. It did made more sense in DHA than in HHA imo. Jimmy isn't even good looking and Fabian isn't boring. I don't excuse in DHA. But atleast I can sort of explain why Nina did it, because she was bored of Daniel and because he has zero passion. She intiates like 90% of the kisses and he just stands there like a statue.

Daniel is doesn't really care about Kaya. Like I know Magnus has been a pretty shitty friend to Felix but that gets acknowledged. Kaya is always there for Daniel when he has issues with Nina and Daniel just isn't. He doesn't even seem to give a shit that Mara cheated on him with Magnus or comfort him atleast when the two start to date. And then when the two wanted to go camping it seemed like it would be more of a distraction for Daniel because of his damn relationship problems with Nina. Eventhough Kaya at this moment had it worse. But did Daniel actually care about that? Of course not. And then of course he also helped Daniel to find Nina's letter about Benny. And not to forget how Kaya was there and supported Daniel during his Pugna Physica. Which I doubt that Daniel actually shows any interest in Kayas sport events. I know what Max did with Kayas sister was wrong. But atleast he showed some general interest in him as a person.

Nina and Daniels chemistry gets worse the next season. And Daniel shows even less passion in the relationship if that is even possible. That's something I still remember.

I had to remind myself at times that Magnus is technically still a kid , so Raven doing business with him was so weird. This dude is like 40 and doing business with some 16 year old. And top of that was kind of able to play Raven at times too. He is of course less creepy than HHA Raven. But he's still kind of creepy too. Especially when he just followed Magnus into the showers one time.

My favourite to sub was the Halloween Episode. Not just just it's a MaraxMagnus Episode. But also there was alot of music in between. Another is the Finale. Again filled with lots music.

Nina got alot better in second half. She still wasn't my fave. But she was alot more likable and seems to be more involved. And there her motivations seems to be alot stronger there.

The first couple days I was doing like 5 episodes per day. ( no joke). I wanted the first 20 episode to be done as quick as possible. I didn't really enjoy those episodes to be honest. So I just thought I had to get through it. Some were still really nice though.

Again. I do think Mara and Kaya should have broken up before she kissed Magnus. But we all know they didn't. She was already locking lips with Magnus in a Public restroom for about 10 seconds while still being with Kaya. And I honestly think that whole story after, was quite underwhelming. You tell me that absolutely nobody gives a shit that Mara who was "lucky" to date the most popular guy in school. Suddenly went to a guy who isn't very popular. Really they are not shocked or in disbelief? They just take it as it is and move on? I'm not saying they should hate on her. But moving a few episodes forward to when Kaya interrupts Luzy on her date with Max. And he's about to tell the whole school. This makes him look like he has some sort of idk how to say it, respect or is responsible for someone's reputation. But then again absolutely nobody giving a shit that Mara is now dating Magnus kind of makes that doubtful and that he is in fact not that important at all. But Luzy in that scene makes it look like he is.

It's really kind of obvious how Mara really needs to be touched to feel loved. And Kaya just isn't doing that. Like at all. He always just sits there. And he doesn't even seem to be interested in her. (It's so bad. The scene in the kitchen. It's so damn terrible.) It does make sense why she ended up touching Magnus so much. I'm glad she got together with him then who does show alot of physical affection. And Kaya later on gets with Charlotte who doesn't seem to have a problem a lack of physical affection. Just an assumption. So everything is fine.

Luzy and Max were kinda weird. Because upon receiving the letters she didn't even seem to like him. And then they don't even spend time with eachother. And then boom after he kissed her she dreams about him for some reason and then after some drama starts dating him. How is that true love between them? Are they serious?

Kaya should have gotten with someone who just doesn't find him amazing at first glance. Because he still believes he some gift from the gods and that doesn't really change with Charlotte. Because he treats Mara even worse than Mick does around that time. (OK. Mick almost kissed Amber.) But aside from that Mick seemed to try atleast and show interest in her, where Kaya just walks aways rolls his eyes or whatever.

Another thing I don't get how they made the cheating with Benny and Nina so romantic. I mean I get why they made it like that with Mara and Magnus when she waa still with Kaya. But with Nina and Daniel? lol. They play this romantic music when Nina is about to cheat on Daniel. Nina and Daniel are supposed to be the main couple and then they create this romantic scenes with another dude when she's still with Daniel. And I don't get either why they make Nina act so bratty. Do they want us to dislike her? Her cheating was really uh... yikes. I don't think on how she cheated is a sign of them starting a healthy relationship. And at times I was also thinking if she completely lost her mind or something? Does she have any awarness? I mean after the cinema they were so close to kiss their noses where already touching eachothers faces. Is she lost or something? How didn't she feel any guilt and was still to Daniel in the next morning like : " Yeah I would have liked if you where there." And then when Daniel confronted she was pissed that she didn't kiss him. But hours before she was doing her make up along with the other girls in the bathroom to impress Benny. I'm sorry if I say that but if I were Daniel I wouldn't want a girlfriend like her. As a friend yes but not as a partner. I also don't understand how Daniel just blindly trust her again after that. She doesn't even do shit for him in the relationship. It's always about her problems and her issues. I would have liked it if there was some work rebuilding that trust. Even if Daniel did forgive her the next day. But she still betrayed his trust. And just idk don't really like how he just trusts her fully again for no reason. I mean what if the next hot guy comes along? Their relationship probably would have been more meaningful and they would have a closer emotional connection if they worked through that. They don't have to share big scenes but just some small scenes. Instead their relationship is so shallow and empty. Or Daniel having a hard time going in the washroom for some time because he imagines Nina and Benny there. If they did this storyline with Benny, which was even if I liked it useless. Atleast they could have used it go form a deeper relationship between them or try to.

The thing with Charlotte and Kaya in the end and their kiss was very rushed. You could kind of tell that the writers wanted to put everyone together and so by the end they didn't have much time anymore and just quickly squeezed them in.

The writers themselves seem to have different definitions of true love. With Nina and Daniel it's just there, with doubts, jealousy cheating etc. But also with other people saying how great they are together with the innocent puppy love. With Mara and Magnus it's like getting to know eachother, becoming better people, become emotionally vulnerable, building trust, support and helping eachother. And talking it out after misunderstandings. With Charlotte and Kaya it's like Charlotte finding him hot and wanting to get into his pants. With Luzy and Max it's like, Max writing her secret letters. Her feeling something when he kisses her before she even got to know him as a person and hung out with him. I mean seriously Luzy and Charlotte were better than those three couples. ( I think you know which three I mean)
