She-Ra s5 ep1 Horde Prime Full, Early, Uncut
Added 2024-01-03 18:14:56 +0000 UTC
What an absolutely amazing start to season 5!!!
he's terrifying, it's fascinating watching catra around him, you can watch her slowly realizing just how out of her depth she is, watch her growing unease morph into a deep seated fear as the episode progresses, mirroring our own experience as viewers.

Prime is Keston John's voiceacting masterpiece, when recording Prime (instead of Hordak or the clones or GRIZZLOR!) he would go to a booth alone, put on earbuds and listen to classical music on full blast, to get into the mindset of Horde Prime, the Most Alone Being In The Universe.

Horde Prime is a ****ing monster compared to the other villains that we've seen so far in this show.

Well, as far as I know, there's no major event in the fan-fic, only character development. Unfortunately, it can't be discussed here.
If there is a spoiler, *I was not aware of it.*

Mannn I still have memories of watching S5 on my phone in my bedroom during the early months of the pandemic. Literally binged it all in one evening. This season is absolutely the best this show ever gets, and it’s the one I always come back to and rewatch eps from. Nearly all of my favorite She-Ra eps are from S5 if that tells you anything!
Also as a LotR fan (as evidenced by my Frodo pfp) I definitely understood the broken sword reference lol

Actually, you should definitely wait until you've finished season 5 before you read that fan-fic because it **DOES** contain a spoiler. Claiming that it is spoiler-free is just wrong.
'Don't go' is not spoiler free.

That's of course because Adora never tasted anything but Horde ration bars until she defected in season 1, so she's chasing the flavorgasm. Catra, on the other hand, has years of experience getting black-market goodies in the Fright Zone, and taking only a little at a time so they last longer.

Also pay attention to ending music, that also changes and for one episode delivers the best history / language based joke in the series while also sounding amazing.

That's fine. I also finished the show first.
To clarify, "must" was a figure of speech. Without pressure, i think it would be nice if you take a look on it whenever you want.
Love your channel btw!

I don't think i should have to do homework to understand a series! I'm sure it's a great read though and I might check it out after I've finished the show, but with Hazbin Hotel dropping while Percy Jackson still airs I'm going to have almost 0 time to do anything else. I'm trusting the show runners of She-Ra to give me a completed story without having to do external research, they've not let me down yet.

The season is so much easier to follow here at the beginning before Horde Prime uses his cloning technology to make glimmer clones to send after our heroes!
Nicholas Lemos
2024-01-05 02:58:48 +0000 UTC
Another fun bit of contrast here is the way Catra's eating (small, measured bites) compared to Adora, who basically unhinges her jaw to make the process more efficient.

*VERY IMPORTANT!*
After watching episode 5x06, you must read the short story fan-fic *"Don't Go"* by Annacharlier. (Link down below)
This story does not contain contradictions or spoilers. In fact, it explains the character development by showing what happened before and after that episode.
Furthermore, ND confessed to having written the script for a secret episode, and this fan-fic matches with an artwork he posted on Twitter.
Connecting the dots, this story is canon in every sense.
https://archiveofourown.org/works/24280306
P.S.: Reading the story is a *must.* Apart from that, if you comment on it in a video it would be nice. There's also a two part video called "Don't Go - She-Ra and the Princesses of Power fan animatics" if you're interested. And thanks for reading this.

I'm very excited for this season. It's been so long since I watched it for the first time, it will be watch someone see it for the first time.
As for Mermista, as well as others, rule of thumb is to assume LGBT unless otherwise specified.

Nate Stevenson has stated that there is no homophobia on Etheria.
Vilmu
2024-01-04 22:45:51 +0000 UTC
I believe that what Mosco thought was a planet is actually one of Etheria’s moons, which, of course Etheria would have a bisexual moon.
Maybe it rotates one way for high-tide and the other way for low-tide? Or maybe that’s just the bisexual water princess.
Jenny D
2024-01-04 16:28:50 +0000 UTC
Oh, I thought I remembered reading on the wiki that she was pan. And I thought she was interested in Bow when she asked him to prom.
Edit: I just checked her page again and there’s actually no sexual orientation stated.
Jenny D
2024-01-04 16:05:25 +0000 UTC
A bisexual planet you say? Does it rotate both ways?

The intro actually goes through several changes over the course of the season, so make sure you pay attention :)
And that scene-transition is so well done. The directors really do step things up in season 5 when it comes to things like symbolism, scene transitions and use of lighting. There's some amazing moments coming up.

Also when Adora wakes up where does she reach for? 🤔

Adora is *so* desperate to prove she's still worth something without She-Ra.

IIRC, it's standard in any of ND Stevenson's works that everyone is to be assumed bi/pan unless explicitly stated otherwise.

Best part's when they argue, and Glimmer says in a tearful voice, "I question your commitment to SparkleKitten!"

I think most episodes in this season are going to leave you clamoring for more, Mosco. Enjoy! Hopefully one of my personal favourite episodes coming up does so especially....

Can't wait for Hazbin reactions. And daddy Hordak wasn't fooled by Catra saying she feels nothing for Adora because he knew what their relationship was like through reading Horkak's thoughts. Happy New Year!

The intro will change multiple times this session, so watch it through in every episode.

I’m glad this was uploaded today. I have to have one of my pet rats put to sleep this afternoon, so this video has been a nice distraction for a little while.
Jenny D

Hence the pointy ears, fangs, and claws! That’s also why Hordak’s little gremlin baby clone has a tail.
Jenny D
2024-01-03 20:11:59 +0000 UTC
Yep, pretty sure Mermista is bi. Perfuma was really into She-Ra when they first met, too (I think she just likes buff women.) Adora has a bit of a clueless chick magnet vibe to me.
Also that conversation between Catra and Prime after the dinner was basically just:
Catra: *tries to manipulate Prime*
Horde Prime: Ok, but you're gay lol.
Vilmu
2024-01-03 19:56:14 +0000 UTC
Horde Prime knows all and sees all......about why kids love the taste of cinnamon toast crunch
And yes, Mermista is canonically bi.
Ashley Silver
2024-01-03 19:53:55 +0000 UTC
"Season five, episode one: Daddy Hordak." Fixed that for you.
Everything you have heard about this season is true. Especially the musical episode where Catra sings a heart wrenching ballad and Adora finally suspects that Catra may have feelings for ... Glimmer. Definitely Glimmer. And then Adora has a rap battle with her evil Horde clone. The other princesses are the backup dancers. And the less we say about Swift Wind's song, the better.
The intro changes a little bit almost every episode this season. Keep your eyes open.
Mermista's sexuality is ... well she's definitely boat curious, if you catch my drift.
Aw, Glimmer and Catra's first date. So awkward when your host brings up your ex.

William Timmins

Honestly, I think nearly everyone on this show is some level of not straight, but afaik Mermista’s hasn’t been officially confirmed. Imo both her and SeaHawk give off bi vibes. I’m pretty sure Perfuma was confirmed pan and Bow was confirmed bi. Possibly Glimmer was as well?
Jenny D
2024-01-03 19:33:23 +0000 UTC
The figure Adora sees definitely can't be the first-ever She-Ra, since that person was one of Catra's people, and the figure lacks the distinctive ears and tail. It wasn't until the Colonizers — uh, I mean "First Ones" — overthrew the Cat Folk and took the She-Ra line for themselves that we get the 5 human-looking ones (well, 6 if we include Adora).
Dafydd Mac an Leigh
2024-01-03 19:24:21 +0000 UTC
I mean, reading people to mess with them seems to be something Prime has been doing for a VERY long time (in contrast, Hordak doesn't seem very good at it.)
Vilmu
2024-01-03 19:23:59 +0000 UTC
Horde Prime (I'm not calling him Daddy Hordak cause that's just fuckin weird) has got Mountain Dew flowing through his veins. Also, yes I'm pretty sure every episode of this season is gonna end on a cliffhanger. Sorry, booboo.

The scratching post by Horde Prime's throne means that Catra will always be nearby.

Can’t wait for Catra’s cat urges to kick in and start scratching everything on horde primes ship, distracting the clones by being adorable making them to start posting her cat videos on primetube. Daddy Hordak will be so frustrated he will be begging Adora to take her and Glimmer.
