Raya vs. Encanto - How One Message Failed and Another Succeeded

funding for shaperless is provided by squarespace the sponsor of today's video from websites and online stores to marketing tools and analytics squarespace is the all-in-one platform to build a beautiful online presence and run your business hey gamers so back in 2018 i put out one of my earliest ever analysis videos comparing moana and coco and seeing which one did a better job of portraying a certain culture through the movie's story and themes i think that video still holds up pretty well aside from one line that i don't quite think is accurate anymore but i'm not gonna say which one anyway raya and the last dragon and in kanto yes i finally learned how to pronounce it go figure are two disney movies that came out last year but i don't really see a reason to compare them culturally because a raya is explicitly a fantasy world inspired by various southeastern asian cultures and b i'm sure there's more qualified people to talk about culture in a disney movie than a pasty white boy in fact i want to take a second to highlight some great videos about the cultural influences in raya and encanto from actual poc creators check out meena lee's cultural analysis of raya and the last dragon or philippe lazaro's video decoding the cultures of raya both are very in-depth and they taught me so much about the real world inspirations for a lot of the elements of raya's setting and character design for in kanto i'd recommend jessica flores's in-depth review with historical literary and cultural context it's also very good and engaging okay so uh funnily enough a few days after i recorded this shiron jae zhao just put out this four hour two part video all about raya it's a collaboration with a bunch of southeastern asian people who are breaking down every aspect of it culturally and uh really tearing into it so yeah i would highly recommend you check out these videos they even briefly touch on some of the points that i make in this video which is kind of funny shout out to jiron and their team they really did an amazing job definitely check that out if you have the time i would highly recommend it it's a really engaging watch so yeah check those out anyway what i'm here to do today is compare the themes of these movies and how they were executed because while said themes aren't entirely identical between these two movies they're both very comparable and have a good deal of overlap plus as you can probably guess from the title and thumbnail i think one of these movies did a much better job at executing his theme than the other like it's not even a contest raya's singular theme of trust is so botched and on the nose and ultimately irresponsible that it's kind of hilarious while encanto presents its message about family toxicity in a subtle and mature and ultimately morally correct manner and that's just one of its many amazing themes but we can gush about it later let's talk about the [ __ ] movie first my oldest brother pengu yeah my re-watch of raya for this video did not do it any favors once again my initial review of it is rather inaccurate most of the points i made in it are still the same but there's a lot more stuff that i found bad or irritating this time around to the point where i'd lower my score to a four out of ten but if i got into everything i don't like about this movie we'd be here all day so let's just focus on its most damning issue the message about trust basically the premise of this movie is that there are five tribes who all want to possess this magic dragon gem because they think it'll bring them prosperity raya's tribe has possession of the gem but it doesn't actually bring prosperity that's just a misconception raya's dad wants to break the misconceptions the other tribes have about them and invites everyone over to his place for food it's here where raya meets namari the most important person in our discussions today she's the princess of another tribe and they hit it off really well bonding over being dragon nerds and holy [ __ ] the dialogue in this movie makes me cringe so hard make it stop but raya is so happy that she's connecting with another girl who loves dragons as much as she does so she takes namari to the place where the gem is hidden but surprised namari is a little stinker and she was just pulling a prank so that her tribe could get the dragon gem there's a fight between all the tribes and the gem is broken unleashing lord smooths who then bathes a bunch of people in his delicious smooze juice and turns them to stone each of the five tribe leaders takes a piece of the gem and runs off including raya because her dad gets lost to the darkness woody so yeah now the world is post-apocalyptic and ryan needs to find the last dragon it's the name of the movie and get her help to restore the heart of te fiti pieces so as you can see by putting her trust in the mari raya inadvertently allowed the entire world to go to [ __ ] there were drastic consequences that resulted from her trusting someone which in turn makes it so that she never wants to trust anyone again the script will continue hammering this point in through increasingly less subtle ways as it goes on which is the first issue of play here show don't tell is such an obvious rule of storytelling but this movie feels the need to break that rule again and again and have characters constantly tell raya that she has trust issues and that oh you just need to trust people and it's more than a little exhausting like i get it and i'm pretty sure kids can get it too they understand the basic concept of trust this is just a side note but even the pop song during the end credits hammers to trust messaging way too hard it's just annoying movies aren't fun when they're shaking you and screaming do you get it do you get the message over and over again and on top of that the message isn't even good the movie wants us to believe that raya is in the wrong for not trusting people and that trust will just solve everything but i think the movie fails to realize that there's a spectrum of trust it's not just a black and white issue what raya should have learned over the course of the movie is that it's okay to put a little bit of trust in people but never all of your trust especially to people you hardly know her dad actually had the right idea at the beginning of the movie he put the right amount of trust into the other tribes by inviting them over and trying to make peace raya made the mistake of putting too much trust in namari by showing her the location of the gem while some level of trust is okay that's a level of trust she never should have afforded to anyone let alone someone she just met and i'm sorry to say but ryan never really should have trusted anyone she didn't know with the gem again the tough eye patch guy the con baby the wonderful wonderful shrimp boy who makes this movie 10 times better whenever he's on screen they all turned out to be good people at heart but the fact of the matter is she doesn't really know them and it takes time to build up trust with people you don't know time that this movie doesn't have because it needs to rush to each new location and keep the plot moving but for all she knows shrimp boy could be lying eyepatch guy could kill them all while they're sleeping and take the gem pieces hell the baby literally already stole the pieces before what's stopping them from doing it again i feel like there's a certain other disney movie that pretty famously expressed the idea that you shouldn't trust people you just met how is frozen delivering a more nuanced and realistic depiction of how the world actually works through its use of a buffoonish twist villain obviously yes i'm glad none of these side peeps are twist villains it's good to find people you can end up trusting but i must reiterate that people you end up trusting you can't build this level of trust with people in this short of a time especially when you're trying to save the world by collecting pieces of a magic artifact that is incredibly sought after and most people would kill to get their hands on raya is essentially trusting these people to the same extent that she trusted namari and look where that got her now let's talk about sisu the most annoying character in a disney movie since rosie o'donnell and tarzan sisu did not have a single funny line in the whole movie it's actually kind of incredible oh wait this video is about the message oh yeah okay so sisu's simplistic view about how trust works really pisses me the [ __ ] off because again the movie wants us to believe that she's right and raya is wrong sisu suggests to raya that the world is broken because she doesn't trust people but the world literally broke because she trusted someone am i in crazy town right now we have to consider the spectrum of trust ryan's dad put a little bit of trust in people in order to try healing the world as a whole raya broke the world not because she didn't trust people but because she trusted too much but the movie wants to ignore that fact and keep insisting that blind trust is good what's the worst that could happen you see sisu believes in trust because her family trusted her before they all got turned to stone and that empowered her which causes her to believe that the same thing can happen to namari if they trust her here's the thing they don't know namari sisu received that trust from her family who actually know her you can't apply the same logic to someone who's been nothing but antagonistic towards raya for the past six years raya and namari had one pleasant day together and even if namari actually came to like raya there it was still a con that she went through with in order to get the dragon gem i am losing my mind at the idea that the solution to this movie's conflict is for raya to trust namari again who has given zero indication that she deserves their trust the burden of making things right should be on the person who broke the trust in the first place and now we finally get to talk about namari good lord this character first of all there's a scene where namari is talking to her mother and she seems remorseful about destroying the entire world and getting people hurt if she cares that much about not hurting people then why is she still so antagonistic towards raya the person she hurt the most the person she essentially traumatized she has no reason to act this way towards raya maybe when she was a kid and didn't know much better sure but six years later she's still threatening her and taunting her and exchanging cringe-worthy quips and have i mentioned yet how much i [ __ ] hate this movie but yeah it's so weird how namari's entire demeanor and motivations change as soon as she sees sisu she suddenly starts acting less warmongery and more empathetic and why i guess the idea is that seeing the dragon she idolized for so long fighting on riocide made her realize that she was morally in the wrong but it's such an abrupt shift for a character that showed barely any sympathetic elements prior to this moment but then we get to the most delightful [ __ ] scene of all okay so basically at sisu's suggestion they give namari a gift the little dragon headpiece thingy that she gave raya as a kid when she was trying to deceive her it's a peace offering their way of saying hey bring us the final dragon gem piece and we'll save the world and bring everyone back together they're affording her a bit of trust and guess what she breaks it because of course she does she pulls out her crossbow and threatens to shoot them if sisu and the gem pieces don't come back with her basically this is because her mommy wants to save face if her tribe is the ones who bring everyone back then they'll be forgiven for messing everything up in the first place so that's why namari is doing this even though just giving ryan the gem piece and letting her bring everyone back would also redeem what namari and fang did especially since raya and representatives from all the other tribes are here to witness this and can vouch for her so namari's kind of a dumbass essentially she doesn't even explain that this is why she's doing this or that she also wants to bring everyone back which like why the hell not it's such a basic way to potentially get rya to trust you but she doesn't even try to explain herself but whatever we don't have time to unpack all of namari's stupid decisions let's talk about a character who never makes any stupid decisions see sue so sisu walks forward towards namari trying to talk her down and saying that she trusts her all things considered this isn't the worst sisu moments i don't think it's out of the question for sisu to assume that namari won't shoot her the legendary last dragon but the thing is as sisu approaches namari's finger starts tightening around the trigger if she really doesn't want to hurt sisu you'd think she would put the crossbow down by now or aim it somewhere else but no she indicates that she's closer to firing on sisu and killing her so raya instinctively tries to stop this with her byleth sword and this is what causes namari to fire and accidentally kill sisu yay i i mean no how sad the movie obviously wants to frame this as a mistake on raya's part like sisu would still be alive if raya had just blindly trusted that amari wouldn't shoot her at point-blank range while her finger was tightening on the trigger i don't think that was her mistake i think that was a reasonable [ __ ] reaction namari broke their trust the moment she pulled out the crossbow and she drove that trust even further into the ground the moment her finger tightened on the traeger there was no reason for raya to believe namari wasn't going to shoot sisu because namari has not done a single thing across this entire movie to earn raya's trust this was a setup on namari's part same as the events that kicked off the entire movie at the beginning and now there's absolutely no reason raya should ever try trusting namari again and surprise surprise namari takes no responsibility for killing sisu whatsoever when raya confronts her they have a sword fight which is actually kinda cool not gonna lie and then the mari claims the problem was that raya didn't trust sisu and that raya's as much to blame for sisu's death as namari is what you're seriously trying to guilt her [ __ ] put your [ __ ] crossbow down then sisu was wrong to trust you you betrayed her the world is broken because of you and if you actually cared about the rest of the world you would let raya restore them all regardless of the consequences you would face you dumbass and now for my favorite part yeah it seriously gets worse from there so namari decides to finally make an unselfish decision and use her gem piece to help people escape but then she and raya and their friends from the other tribes get trapped together with the smooth juice surrounding them they have all five gem pieces they just don't trust the mario enough to hand over their pieces and for some incomprehensible reason she doesn't trust them enough to hand over hers and so the first step is taken by raya who hands her gem piece to namari this is actually infuriating like i can't believe this is the way the writers thought this scene should pan out namari has proven time and time again that you should never trust her to do the right thing and the fact that raya continues to do so after she lost everything thanks to namari that's just a really bad and irresponsible message it's not on you to make things right with people who severely broke your trust and ruined your life it's on them namari should have been the one to hand her piece over to raya as some form of redemption and atonement for everything she did wrong it wouldn't excuse everything but it would definitely be a start an extremely crucial stepping stone that indicates that mario is willing to change for the better but of course that's not what happens and i don't know why i expected it to since this movie has already broken my trust that it'll be competent and have an actual good message raya and her buddies give namari their pieces and get turned to stone blindly trusting that she'll do the right thing for some reason and of course she does but also i don't think this scenario is a particularly good way for namari to redeem herself like namari has no interesting conflict here that challenges her in any way once everyone gives her the gem pieces her options are restore the gem or turn to stone with everyone else once the gems power completely fades away cheese rat poison cheese rat poison duh there's no difficult choice that namari needs to make it's just one of self self-preservation that also happens to be the choice that'll restore the world and bring everyone else back when john silver gave up the treasure in order to save jim and treasure planet that was a difficult choice for him where he did the right thing that was character growth that was beautiful this it's like who gives a [ __ ] what else was damari supposed to do this doesn't say anything about her morality if hitler was in this scenario he probably would have stored the gem pieces and the cherry on top of all of this namari doesn't even apologize for anything not for a single thing she did in the entire movie not for traumatizing raya and taking everything from her not for destroying the entire world nothing we get nothing out of her like are you [ __ ] serious she put practically no work into making things right and it's so infuriating i hope you guys don't mind but i'm gonna take a little detour for a minute and talk about one of my favorite scenes in all of fiction one that i'm sure a lot of you know about already but if you don't spoiler warning for avatar the last airbender [Applause] there's this one scene in the series finale that stuck with me for years one that i can't even think about without tearing up you all know zuko hot-headed exiled prince of the fire nation obsessed with capturing the avatar and restoring his honor you all know iro his wise uncle who loves him more than anyone in fact throughout most of the series he's the only one who loves zuko guiding him being there for him every step of the way always trying to get him to do the right thing without going into too much details in the season 2 finale zuko betrays his loving and caring uncle when given the opportunity to rejoin the fire nation and it really is such an earth-shattering betrayal of trust one that was so hard for a lot of fans to see coming how are you just gonna break ira's heart like that come on they interact a few times early in season three when iro's in the fire nation's prison and zuko is mostly just angry at him over the course of season 3 however zuko learns the error of his ways and eventually decides to leave the fire nation and join the good guys hoping to reunite with his uncle before he does but it turns out airo escaped prison on his own so they spend more time separate and here in the series finale after spending so much time apart and not leaving things on good terms zuko is finally given the chance to reunite with iro and he is just profusely apologetic expressing so much remorse and saying how he doesn't expect ira to forgive him at all and then suddenly iro just grabs him and hugs him as the music swells wordlessly conveying how much he cares about zuko in spite of everything he did before putting into words how happy he is that zuko found his way all by himself it's a one minute scene filled with more warmth love beauty and understanding than some movies can manage throughout their entire run time and raya and the last dragon is one such movie if they had a scene here at the end that could reach a fraction of the greatness of zuko's apology if namari could have broken down and profusely expressed remorse for everything she did for the amount of trust that she broke then maybe this movie could have been something more than just a waste of my time there was so much potential for a true heart to heart between raya and namari here at the end and yet they didn't even attempt one even though the entire plot of the movie hinged on their relationship and the lack of trust there was between them until the ending namari can't even bring herself to apologize to sisu the person she murdered we could have had both ends of the forgiveness spectrum here sisu could have immediately accepted namari's apology like iro did while raya could have told her that they needed time to rebuild trust and that maybe one day she would be able to fully forgive namari even though the message about trust was botched there could have at least been a strong message about forgiveness and how it's okay for some people to forgive immediately while other people need work put in before they can forgive someone but the movie refused to even attempt such a message because it didn't have namari give any apology whatsoever this is how you make an apology scene and this is a [ __ ] embarrassment but the good news is i don't need to express how bad raya is by comparing it to the best redemption arc in all of fiction i can also just compare it to encanto which is probably the reason most of you clicked on this video yeah sorry this is more of a raya bad video i have a bit less to say about in kanto here but needless to say it takes themes and messages that are so easy to botch and executes them brilliantly in a way that raya could only dream of the themes between these two movies aren't exactly the same but it's the execution of one of encanto's themes that really sticks out and makes raya's bad message about trust even worse in hindsight but before we delve into good movie i have something special for all you dragon nerds out there don't you wanna

come of age the gifts come from the family's miracle which was given to them many years ago when the abuela alma lost her husband to an armed conflict the miracle as represented by this candle protected her gave her a sentient home to raise her children in and also gave all her children and their children the aforementioned magic powers our main character is alma's granddaughter mirabelle who for some reason doesn't get a gift and ends up somewhat ostracized from the family in the coming years as a result she also starts to notice cracks forming in the house as well as some of her family members starting to lose control of their gifts an indication that the miracle may be fading so the movie is about her trying to investigate why her family is losing the miracle and put a stop to it and by actually talking to her family members she slowly begins to realize that they're all buckling under the weight of their gifts her sister luisa is extremely strong but as a result she's always expected to carry way too much and overwork herself helping the family and the town heavy her other sister isabella is expected to be perfect all the time and get married off to someone she doesn't even like never being allowed to express her true self and okay so we're gonna talk about bruno this is mirabelle's uncle who gets ostracized from the family and the town because they believe his gift of seeing the future is what causes bad things to happen bruno ended up leaving the family and going into hiding inside the house's walls all to protect mirabelle when a premonition about her looked really bad and he knew that everyone might assume the worst and start ostracizing mirabelle too which they kinda do already but it could have been even worse the entire family and these three in particular are deeply suffering because of their gifts and the raised expectations that come from said gifts and eventually mirabelle identifies the root cause of her family members suffering it's alma alma runs the entire household with an iron fist and constantly wants to keep her family in check she wants the family to efficiently use their gifts to help the community which is noble but she never considers how much pressure she places on them by doing so luisa isn't happy isabella isn't happy bruno isn't here i mean he is here he is in the wall but you know what i mean that's one of the coolest lyrics and we don't talk about bruno by the way when they all sing he's here referring to mariano but it's also foreshadowing the fact that bruno is here too even though none of them know that yet oh it's so genius okay sorry back on track alma essentially just sees her family members as their gifts and nothing more for instance the very next day after little antonio gets his gift to talk to animals alma says i'm sure today will find a way to put your blessings to good use like this five-year-old doesn't even get a full day to enjoy his new powers alma immediately just wants to figure out how to put him to work it's a very small seemingly innocuous line but it just illustrates how toxic her mindset is like how long before antonio is as frazzled and unhappy as luisa and isabella being forced to negotiate trade disputes between the toucan alliance and the kapibara confederacy or something i don't know give this kid a chance to be a kid there's no chuck e cheese's here in the encanto so just letting him enjoy his animal talking power is the next best thing alma also seems obsessed with keeping up appearances to the rest of the village refusing to admit to them that anything is going wrong with their powers because they're the madrigals the village expects them to be perfect because that's what alma presents her family as to the village because that's what she expects of them and the way she talks to mirabelle is just condescending at best and extremely heartless at worst remember when i said she only sees her family members as their gifts well with that in mind how do you think she sees mirabelle who doesn't have a gift [ __ ] you kid you're a dick she constantly tells her to step aside and not get in the way of the other family members with gifts insinuating that mirabelle will bring them down at one point mirabelle's mom tries to tell alma to go easy on her because the night of antonio's gift ceremony will be hard for her and alma's response shows zero concern for mirabelle's feelings instead expressing concern over whether antonio will get a gift or not because that's all she cares about her family is worthless if they can't be of service there's another scene where alma is chewing mirabelle's dad out for hiding bruno's vision from her saying that he should have thought of the family and he responds by saying i was thinking about my daughter alluding to the dirty underlying truth that no one in the family wants to truly acknowledge the fact that alma doesn't really consider the giftless mirabelle to be part of the family and would likely completely shut her out like she did to bruno if it meant protecting the miracle alma doesn't respond to this statement and talks to someone else but mirabelle's mom reels the conversation back in by telling alma that she's always been too hard on mirabelle and once again alma deflects by saying they have to protect the family and the encanto implying that these things are more important than making mirabelle a member of the family feel like she belongs in it so i think it's pretty clear at this point that while she's not a villain alma is the antagonist and as such mirabelle has a confrontation with the antagonist towards the end of the movie alma yells at her granddaughter blaming her for everything the cracks forming bruno leaving luisa losing her powers isabella daring to not act perfect for a change and it's hard to watch it's heartbreaking and it feels so authentic so real the voice acting the writing the expressions they all sell it perfectly and mirabelle rightfully retorts that alma is the one who's destroying the family making everyone feel inadequate by always expecting perfection she says that everyone loves the family except alma she doesn't care about what she's doing to them mentally and emotionally and ultimately the miracle is dying because of her this argument is what causes the house to collapse and the miracle to die out but i don't think any of this is mirabelle's fault she was just saying what they were all thinking she hasn't done anything wrong it's alma who needs to change for the better in order for the family to be okay does this sound familiar one of encanto's themes is that of family toxicity as personified by alma much like how namari personifies the trust theme that gets heavily focused on in raya and these two are both antagonists of their respective movies that ultimately end up redeemed by the end now i've seen a ton of criticism leveled against this aspect of encanto a lot of people just think that toxic family members shouldn't be forgiven and in real life yeah a lot of them shouldn't but here's the key aspect of this movie that makes alma's redemption work it's the fact that she is the one who instigates it not mirabelle if a family member is toxic and negatively impacting you and your life and your mental health the burden is not on you to try and make that relationship work the burden is on them to be better this is a simple truth that raya didn't understand while encanto thrives by showcasing it like i said alma was the problem and she needed to make things right with her family and that is why she is the one to approach mirabelle not the other way around mirabelle apologizes for hurting the family which is what alma called her out for for doing earlier during their argument but instead of agreeing with that sentiment and accepting mirabelle's apology which she probably would have done earlier in the movie alma after that [ __ ] beautiful song sequence where she fully shares her backstory and opens up about her trauma losing her husband tells mirabelle under no uncertain terms that she never hurt the family and that she's so sorry for everything she takes full responsibility for breaking the family she doesn't try and shift the blame anywhere else she gives a full honest apology and admits that everything is broken because of her which is something a spineless sniveling coward like namari could never do the difference between both of their redemptions is staggering almas is raw and honest and real and 100 initiated by her while namari's is non-existent outside of her just happening to save everyone else by rebuilding the gem that would save her own skin in the process and if for some reason you think alma can give a more sincere and thorough apology because she's older and wiser than the mari i don't know 16 year old zuko seemed to do just fine at apologizing as well even maui's wimpy ass apology to graffiti was more substantial than anything the mari did just god how embarrassing the other great thing about alma's apology is how she gives a reason for why she acts the way she does without hiding behind it as an excuse the song number during this scene dos orugitas perfectly illustrates another one of the movie's core themes hell arguably its most central theme generational trauma alma was so horribly traumatized by the loss of her husband but in honor of his sacrifice and in order to feel like she deserved the miracle she got she vowed to use her family's gifts to help others ultimately losing sight of the fact that her family couldn't keep up with this desire her trauma is essentially what caused her to strive for perfection to be a beacon for the entire community to look towards to protect them all the way her husband protected her even though no one in her family was around back then to really understand that's why she acts the way she does they saw her the same way we saw her as an antagonist with no concern for her family's well-being but in order to change all she really needed was someone in the family to open up to her about how much she was harming them and after hearing her story and her apology where she takes the full blame for everything mirabelle insists to her in a parallel to the scene where she told her off earlier that they were given a miracle because of her because of her suffering because of her sacrifice and that they can fix the family together it's just so perfect it's not mirabelle suddenly excusing the trauma alma caused her it's acknowledging that said trauma stemmed from alma's own and now that they fully understand each other they can rebuild their relationship with alma putting in more of the work alma proved that she could do that by coming here of all places just to console mirabelle here the place where her husband was killed and where all her trauma stemmed from and she continues to prove it by fully embracing mirabelle in maybe the most gorgeous moment in any disney film in over 20 years reconciling with bruno and returning him to the family and apologizing to all the rest of them in the ending song finally acknowledging that the miracle is not their gifts but them encanto is not a movie about blindly trusting that your toxic family members will be better and forgiving them for everything they've done to you it's about connecting to them and understanding them as they make things right with you this is why encanto has such a beautiful wildly successful message while raya and the last dragon completely fumbled everything i could compare other aspects of these movies for days and almost every single point will be in in kanto's favor but really what's the point everyone's in love with encanto and no one is talking about raya which is probably for the best i just wanted to make this video to address a surprisingly common misread of encanto's message while also pointing out that if you haven't seen raya don't bother it's really bad or maybe you'll like it i don't know i seem to be in the minority and really hating it since most people tend to say it's decent to good everyone's opinions on these movies is valid feel free to disagree with me if you're so inclined all i know is two viewings of raya is more than enough for the rest of my life and now that this video is over i'm gonna go watching kanto for the 60th time good night tri-state area [Applause] you
