The Owl House has fallen! I, Transformers, am now top of Trending Now!
Transformers fans the moment The Owl House is no longer on the trending list.
I just think these two would be best friends.

is that piece of media actually bad, or is it just not following the blueprint you projected onto it? is that work actually not good, or are you just demanding something from it that is absolutely antithetical to its themes, genre, tone, and narrative goal? is that story actually poorly written, or do you just dislike that it is not the specific things you wanted from it that it never set out to be, never was, and never is going to become? is it actually bad, or is it actually well-executed and you just dislike the story it chose to be because it isn't catering to your specific desires and expectations?

Rick and Haruko chapter 2: Be Excellent to Each Other (originally published on March 14, 2024)
AN: Welcome back to Rick and Haruko, everyone! Sorry to keep you waiting, I had school stuff to do, plus I spent the weekend at Anime Milwaukee and had an utter blast taking pictures of cosplayers while also spending more than $600 on merchandise, like new games for my Nintendo Switch. I finally got my hands on games such as Xenoblade Chronicles 2, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge, Astral Chain, and Triangle Strategy, which I've been told is supposed to be really fun. But enough about my personal life, let's get on with what you've all been waiting for already. Starting with this chapter, we start adventuring into more crossovers with fandoms I've yet to write for, so consider this a potential backdoor pilot for possible future stories. Okay? Okay. Now, on with the show!
---
For Haruko's first big concert as a member of Rick's band, the Flesh Curtains, she was taken to the Net. Through systems, peoples, and cities, to this place: Mainframe. What she found so amazing was that not only were there more dimensions beyond the one she lived in, but so many of them were so radically different from her own. In particular, Dimension R-994 was a world that took place entirely within a computer filled with humanoid beings known as Sprites, coexisting alongside little machines called Binomes. After taking the opportunity to play a show for the celebration of scientist Welman Matrix's discovery of systems beyond the city of Mainframe, Rick took the Flesh Curtains to this new dimension on the same cargo ship they rescued Haruko in, which Rick turned into the dimension-traveling Rick-stery Machine.
"So let me get this straight, Mr. Sanchez. Not only are you from somewhere outside of any system entirely," Dot Matrix, a green-skinned female Sprite in garish 80s-style clothing, asked Rick while the guitar-playing scientist tuned his bass in front of a diner under construction, "but you have the power to traverse dimensions?"
"Yeah, I was cracking dimensional travel before your old man made it cool." Rick boasted with a burp. "Wanna hear more about my travels? You would not believe what I've seen!"
"Please tell me more, Mr. Sanchez!" Dot's little brother Enzo demanded while excitedly hopping up and down, with his red and yellow furred dog Frisket barking behind him. "Your adventures sound alphanumeric!"
"Slow down there, young Enzo," Birdperson answered the young Sprite. "As much as we'd love to tell more about our adventures, we still have a concert to perform in the Twin City for your father."
"Hey, speaking of which, where did Haruko and Squanchy go?" Rick wondered while looking around for the band's drummer and their newest member before turning back to the Matrix siblings. "Well, I hate to cut and run you two, but we have some friends of our own to find. See you at the concert!"
As Dot began looking at a clipboard while Enzo continued impatiently running around, Rick and Birdperson walked away in search of their bandmates. "Any idea where those two could've gone?" Rick asked Birdperson. "We're supposed to go live in five minutes!"
"Hopefully, not too far away," Birdperson replied. "Squanchy only said they were going fishing together."
"Fishing, in this universe?" Rick commented while tuning his guitar. "How do the denizens of this place even eat? I mean, what's that diner even for anyways?"
"Excuse me, Mr. Sanchez." a Binome dressed as a construction worker said to Rick, catching the well-traveled scientist's attention. "My friends and I would like to hear some of your music before your big show today."
"Okay, fine, how about a little warm-up?" Rick said before preparing to rock out on his bass. "A-ONE, A-TWO, A-ONE, TWO, THREE-" Before he could finish counting down, he heard a loud sound coming from the Twin City. "What the shit?!" A massive explosion soon followed, knocking the two musicians and their audience off their feet. "Birdperson, what the hell just happened?!"
"Something must've happened in the Twin City." Birdperson analyzed, his composure never shaking despite the sudden noise. He then turned to watch Dot and Enzo hop aboard a car and race to the Twin City. "We can find Haruko later. I suggest we investigate the damages."
"Fine, whatever." Rick grumbled as he and Birdperson raced towards the Rick-stery Machine and flew off after the Matrix siblings.
In a world where the Collector was released early and made into Belos's trump card against wild witches
Belos, speaking to the Collector via raven: Hello, Collector.
Collector: Hi Belos!
Belos: I need to talk to you about some important guests coming today.
Collector: Are they bringing candy?
Belos: No.
Collector: And like that, you lost me.
Belos: They're our financial suppliers.
Collector: Oh, they gotta hate us!
Belos: Indeed, they do. Which is why they cancelled our budget.
Collector: Ooh, that's bad. We need that, right? Kiki, we need that, right?
Kikimora: Yes, very important.
Collector: Thanks Kiki!
Belos: Over the last couple of years, we've had some… expensive claims.
Collector: What claims?
Belos: First off, property damage.
Collector: (flashes back to a comet crashing onto the precinct) Good times!
Belos: DOZENS of noise complaints.
Collector: (yelling over Dua Lipa blaring in the background) SORRY, CAN'T HEAR YOU!
Belos: Turning at least a dozen civilians into your toys.
Collector: Oh come on, you've been petrifying witches for ages! You don't see me complaining about it!
Belos: And.....all of those "pranks."
Collector: .......I'm not apologizing for that.
Belos: Listen my friend, I know I'm asking a lot, but....
Collector: But what?
Belos: I would like for you to stay in the basement until they're all gone. Is that clear?
Collector: .........are you embarrassed with me?
Belos: Collector!
Collector: I'm gonna go with no.
Belos: Young man, this is very important and I do not need you causing another scene!
Collector: I don't have to take this! I'm going for a walk.
Belos: NO YOU ARE NOT!
Collector: So whatcha gonna do? Find a Titan who can stop me? What's his name again, Michael McDoesn'tExist?
Belos: (sighs) What do you want?
Collector: What?
Belos: What do I need to give you to keep you down here for the evening?
Collector: I want a super cool staff! And maybe one for the Golden Guard as well.
Hunter: But I already have a staff.
Collector: Then get him a super sharp spear! Spears are awesome!
Belos: Anything else?
Collector: Gimme a big crystal ball too, with Witchflix!
Belos: Should it also have 3D?
Collector: No, that was a stupid gimmick and everyone knows it!

Ninja Turtles in the Owl House lore and facts
- Kirby O’Neil first met Camila Noceda at the Robin’s Roost Cafe while he was in Gravesfield for an antiques show. Upon discovering how they both lost a spouse to natural causes, the two became friends, then lovers, and finally husband and wife. Camila’s daughter Luz was seven at the time her mother remarried, and Kirby’s daughter April was older by two years at age nine.
- Similarly, the bond between the Clawthorne family and the Hamato clan dates back centuries to when Hamato Koji became a shoulder for Evelyn Clawthorne to cry on following the sudden death of her human husband Caleb Wittebane. This relationship would continue for generations to come, extending all the way to Evelyn’s great-great granddaughter Gwendolyn and Koji’s great-great grandson Hamato Yuuta, who would later introduce his children Yoshi and Hana to Gwendolyn’s daughters Eda and Lilith.
- In contrast to Luz’s endless creativity, April is more intellectual and athletic. She has an interest in science and journalism, plays soccer, is on the school gymnastics team, and regularly does yoga. She also tried signing her and Luz up for cheerleading to expand Luz’s social circle, but that was also where Luz did her eyelid trick that freaked everybody out. Thankfully, April would get a second chance at cheerleading when she joined Hexside’s fearleaders.
- Luz’s ninja weapon of choice is a scythe while April wields war fans that once belonged to Tang Shen.
- Out of all the Turtles, Michelangelo is Eda’s special little guy, a fact that Mikey uses to rile up his brothers like a little gremlin. Mikey reminds Eda a lot of herself, a energetic and mischievous witch with tons of potential much like Eda when she was younger. Though you may think Mike is a lazy and childish slacker, he’s actually quite the creative and unpredictable fighter, so much so that Splinter believes he has the potential to be the deadliest fighter of the four brothers.
- Oroku Saki wasn’t necessarily born evil, but he grew up believing that wild witches were cowards who used their powerful magic to hide how pathetic they were, a trait that Emperor Belos noticed when he planned to arrest the Oroku clan for their use of wild magic. Unlike Saki, his brother Oroku Nagi refused to submit to Belos. Seeing himself and Caleb in the Oroku siblings, Belos decided to have the two battle in a witch’s duel.
- At the eve of the witch’s duel, Saki and his family’s retainers Hattori Tatsu and Aru Khan went on a journey in search of a suit of armor known as the Kuroi Yoroi, which is said to be a legendary weapon used by the Ninja Tribunal, the first witches to use martial arts. Saki used the armor to kill Nagi in their witch’s duel and would go onto become known as the Shredder. Afterwards, the Oroku clan would be reformed into the black-ops division of the Emperor’s Coven called the Foot Coven.
- Bebop and Rocksteady were a pair of thugs who were thrown in the Conformatorium for their numerous crimes. But instead of being forced into a coven or petrified, the two were recruited into the Foot Coven as a way of escaping imprisonment.
- Baxter Stockman is the twin brother of Perry Porter, thus making him Gus’s uncle by extension. The two became estranged after Gus’s mother Bernice joined her brother-in-law on an experiment to create a portal to other worlds that quickly went awry. Bernice died in the chaos, and Perry disowned Baxter for failing to save her.
- Amity was first introduced to Casey Jones after she was forced to end her friendship with Willow. As part of the business partnership between Odalia and Darius Dunn, the two were arranged to be married when they came of age. However, Casey realized that Amity’s controlling queen bee personality hid a much more tortured and benevolent soul beneath, while Amity realized how caring Casey really was behind the risk-loving goofball he presented himself as. After Amity fell in love with Luz and Casey fell in love with April, the marriage was called off.
- While April warmed up to the Turtles, Splinter and King without much trouble, she and Eda definitely got off on the wrong foot. April believed that Eda wasn’t a very good mentor and looked more like some creep who drives a free candy van (as it turns out, Eda once beat up a guy like that after discovering that he really didn’t have candy in his van), while Eda loved poking fun at how April reminded her of Lilith.
- Eventually, the two would come to an understanding during the events of “Revenge of Tibbles” (this AU’s version of Really Small Problems) where Eda realized just how much stress April was putting on herself to be a good sister. Despite their differences, the two girls cared for their families above all else. After saving Luz and the others from the clutches of the Purple Dragons, April and Eda agreed to have a little girls’ day out together.
- In addition to being two of the strongest witches on the Isles, Eda and Lilith are also skilled fighters from training under many masters. Eda prefers to get up close and personal with her opponents while keeping them guessing, while Lilith is a more graceful and tactical combatant.
- Eda trained under the Ancient One and the Utroms while Lilith was an apprentice of the Shredder. Both are skilled in bojutsu, as is every witch with a Palisman, but Eda prefers the arts of shurikenjutsu, kayakujutsu, shinobi-iri, hensojutsu, and intonjutsu, while Lilith is more talented in kenjutsu, choho, boryaku, and taijutsu. They work out by jogging and doing yoga, but Eda also does boxing, weightlifting, and poledancing in comparison to Lilith working out with gymnastics, judo and kendo.
- When Lilith was first welcomed into the Owl House after sharing the curse with Eda, everyone was divided over the change. Hooty and Michelangelo welcomed her with open arms, Luz, Eda, King, Leonardo, and Donatello followed some advice from Splinter to remain optimistic, and April declared Lilith to be on thin ice with her.
- And then there’s Raphael, who will never let go of how Lilith & Shredder nearly killed them all and took Eda & Splinter away. He’s so paranoid, he had recurring nightmares about Lilith betraying the gang and mocking Raph for being the only one to see through her facade even though no one believed him. As a way of forcing the two to become closer, Splinter handcuffs Lilith and Raph together and will only release them if they proved they’re on better terms. This test would be interrupted by Tiger Claw, Hunter and Baxter plotting to hunt Lilith down to bring her to Shredder so she can be punished for her betrayal, forcing her and Raph to work together if they were to survive.
- The Utroms migrated to the Boiling Isles after Dimension X was conquered in the name of Aldrich Leviathan and made their home in what would become known as the Empyrean Oasis, which would be the source of the earliest mutant demons. The Triceratons have also migrated to the Boiling Isles for similar reasons, and even destroyed their homeworld to deny Amphibia another planet to conquer.
- Centuries later, the Utroms led a secret war against Belos to free the isles from his tyranny via training witches to become Guardians. A young Eda, Yoshi, Raine, and Tang Shen were among these witches, as were Gwendolyn, Hamato Yuuta, and Tsou T’an-Jin before them, and many members of the Clawthorne and Hamato families dating back centuries to Koji and Evelyn.
- In 1815 during the War of 1812, a US soldier named John Bishop discovered a mysterious portal that would lead him to the Boiling Isles, where he was experimented on by the Utroms to create a perfect superweapon to destroy Belos. Bishop was horrified by the aliens who captured him and made an escape, forcing the Utroms to scrap the project altogether. Bishop would eventually find a way home through Titan’s blood, but he stuck around the Demon Realm long enough to learn about the evils of Belos and carve his own Palisman, a wolf he named Knight. Afterwards, Bishop became leader of the Earth Protection Force, a position he would retain for decades due to the Utroms’ experiments making him basically immortal.
- Due to Lilith’s ties with the Oroku family, she was made by Shredder and his wife Oroku Miwa to be the nanny of their two daughters Karai and Pimiko. Between the two, Karai was preferred over Pimiko, who hid her desperation for approval by acting like an arrogant brat.
- Throughout his life as the Golden Guard, Hunter considered Karai to be like a sister to him for how much she looked out for him. Karai knew how cruel Belos was to his subordinates and feared how he would punish Hunter if he failed a mission.
- Shredder is roughly a decade older than Eda, Lilith and Splinter, being somewhere in his fifties while the three of them are all in their mid to late forties.

Sorry If this sounds a bit bitter… and kinda spoiled the mood… but I have to say it now that it’s done:
THE OWL HOUSE IS WHAT STAR VS THE FORCES OF EVIL FAILED AT AND IT’S NOT EVEN FUNNY
I have been saying this for the past year
Fun fact, I once had this joke theory after Season 1 of TOH ended (wow, that was so long ago) about how Belos was actually an older, time-traveling Star in disguise who was horrified at how much the Boiling Isles resembled Mewni in how everyone used magic, she began planning the Day of Unity to do Cleaved all over again while creating the coven system to make sure nobody uses magic for their own selfish gain again.
But enough about goofy crossover theories, you know who else Star deserves to be compared to? The Huntsman from American Dragon Jake Long, who also plotted the extermination of magic. The key difference is that it was presented as a very bad thing since our lead character is a magical creature as is a good portion of his supporting cast. Another comparison would be the Ducktales reboot version of the Phantom Blot, who had a vendetta against magic for quite sympathetic reasons since he wanted revenge on Magica DeSpell for terrorizing his village.
You see, this is why you should never make a bubbly Sailor Moon knock-off with the attention span of a five year old more mature and morally gray. It makes her no better than villains who think they’re doing the right thing when really they’re just selfish bigots.
The Wittebane Brothers in the afterlife
Caleb: Stop staring at me!
Philip: No, you stop staring at me!
Caleb: Do I look like I actually want to spend the rest of eternity gazing at your unsightly visage?
Philip: Trust me, your visage is no picnic either! And your face is ugly too.
Caleb: Oh, someone just kill me now.
Philip: How do you suppose you got here, you witch-loving nitwit?! (starts laughing maniacally with a hint of crying) It’s funny really when you think about it. Tragic but funny! (continues laughing)
Caleb: Oh shut up.

The Owl House And Restorative Justice
At the end of Season 1 of The Owl House, it is revealed that Lilith, the main overarching antagonist of that season, was the one to curse her sister Eda, one of the protagonists, to win a tournament when they were teenagers. This information causes Eda to fly into a screaming rage and attack Lilith, and understandably so.
Eda’s curse is essentially a chronic illness, one that, in Eda’s own words, has ruined her life, being the reason she’s considered a social outcast and why, before meeting King and Luz, she hadn’t gotten close to anyone in years. In season 2, it’s revealed that the curse is why she pushed away her partner Raine to the point that they broke it off with her, and that during a particularly bad flareup, she accidentally maimed her own father, leaving him half blind and with permanent nerve damage to his hands, making him unable to continue working as a Palisman carver. The curse has ruled Eda’s life for decades now, so to Eda, this is the ultimate betrayal.
In the first episode of Season 2, Lilith has defected from the Emperor’s Coven, split the curse between Eda and herself to mitigate the symptoms for her sister, and has moved in with Eda at the Owl House. While Lilith herself still feels guilty and feels she has to make it up to Eda, everyone else, Eda included, has seemingly either forgiven her or chosen to look past it. Eda even makes fun of her for feeling bad about cursing her, and Lilith’s guilt is seemingly absent for the rest of the series.
The response to this was… Less than stellar, shall we say. A lot of people were angry, saying Lilith got away with her crimes without even a slap on the wrist, and that Eda’s forgiveness of her was far too sudden.
This isn’t the first time we’ve seen this kind of critique. Amity spent years bullying Willow after her parents forced her to break off their friendship, and when she began trying to mend that relationship, the response from fans was that Willow should have been a lot more angry at Amity, and that they went back to being besties far too soon. I’ve even seen this criticism leveled at Hunter for the things he did while working for Belos, at Vee for impersonating Luz for months to trick her mother, and at Luz for hiding the fact that she helped Philip find the Collector from her friends. And it does seem strange for the show to keep tripping on this same point again and again.
Except, it’s not really. Because I think that, when viewing this show from a different angle, those supposed flaws are actually symptoms of something very important to understand – The Owl House operates on a system of crime and punishment that is very different from our world’s.
More specifically, our world mostly utilizes retributive justice. The world of The Owl House utilizes restorative justice.
Ironically, despite people saying Lilith, Amity, Hunter, Vee or Luz don’t deserve forgiveness, they’re incredibly quick to let the Collector off of giving Belos the draining spell, turning everyone on the Boiling Isles into mindless puppets, and taking King’s family away from him with a slap on the wrist just because he’s an innocent little baby who just wants friends and didn’t do anything wrong.
The double standards of all fandoms never cease to amaze and disappoint me.
