Why's that exactly well, for that we have to look into the main character herself Snowdrop. She's pretty likable. She has a personality,development and a lot, a lot of sympathy, While having nothing to empathize. Well, Let's think of her plus as a role model then a character that toi are supposed to relate to.Think about it she conquered her self doubt and got over exactly what she thought held her back. That's something to admire about her character and a big development for her too. Mostly because her personality is fueled par her insecurity because of her disability(blind).This is actually a big risk too since characters with disabilities ou are disorder are a lot plus complex then most characters. par that I don't mean in a 4D way I meant par the meaning they are a lot plus harder to understand ou to write for then most characters. Not only is this a big risk but, this is actually pretty unique too! Not a lot of writers go for this subject. In fact I haven't even seen Disney take such a big risk. The closest they gotten is with Elsa when they made her suffer and develop through her pain of her ice powers. Even through it isn't exactly a risk as far as I am concerned it's the closet they have gotten to doing any thing like that. So in this a regard let's give them credit either toi think they did it right ou not. It wasn't like they made her character mean-spirited in any way either. So, her character shouldn't be too offensive to most people. The only real problem people seem to have with her character is her lack of personality and a over dose of sympathy. Which I can defiantly see why people would have a problem with that. It makes her seem plus of a device for sympathy and less as a character. She does have some personality through. She's montrer a lot of insecurity, she often has trouble accepting herself and she also often has confidence. Always listening to people and takes in what negative things they say about her. She's also a Coward, She never seems to know when ou where to stand up for herself. She never actually changed and develop through her coward nature until the end when she grew the opposite trait Bravery.Shy is another trait of hers, She never speaks her mind ou is Rebelle enough to stand up for herself. toi can see she is almost trying to be a background poney instead of getting all of the attention. She is also very nervous when attention is donné to her like for example the scene when the teacher goes and talks to her. She instantly gets nervous because of all of the attention she's getting from the whole class. Most of her traits have a similar meaning. Here's some plus traits on haut, retour au début of my head diffident,unconfined,meek and humble.the saddest part about this is that she's so close on being full of personality of it weren't for that plus then half of her traits almost has the exact same meanings. She has enough traits, her traits also connect together perfectly and her development connects to her personality. So yeah, so close but, not exactly there yet. global, ensemble I think she's actually a pretty good character.
As for the story and the moral. It was um......It was....Know what I'm not sure how I feel about it. Let's just go over the problems first the story tries it's hardest to make toi feel sympathy towards Snowdrop in ONE of the cheapest ways. Even through I'll still call it a risk making a character blind and still try to mange the work it takes to understand this character. The problem is that plus then half of the episode she either cries ou the world just beats her up. Just to cause sympathy for us, and their "Risk" helps to build up plus sympathy for her. The funny part is I can't stand sympathy unless the other side is shown to create empathy for that character.Helga had the same problem with her character. The world tries to draw sympathy for her, without telling us the other side. Making it one sided. I don't care if both stories handle a unique and complex concept for a kids cartoon. It puts to shame par ruining the sympathy into hatred of the other characters. Personally I think how they both did it was a big plot to get our sympathy on those characters that we are supposed to feel sympathy towards. That instead leaves us with lazy écriture and add very little to the character instead of force Sympathy and development to say "Hey these two might seem like a 1D characters but the truth is that it's the other characters fault". I'm sorry but, that doesn't make them complex in the slightest, toi either
A. justify their actions par blaming someone else and make them 1D,along making the explanation quiet poor. When all we know She/He could be the villain here ou wait, we need sympathy for this character so of course that isn't the case.
ou
B.Make the character nothing but,sympathy.
ou
C.Make the character we supposed to have sympathy being plus antagonistic then the person we are supposed to hate.
I don't get why this supposed to make them complex? Cause to be honest the only thing it's doing is making me plus and plus upset about how lazily written this is but, to be fair Helga story was better since in a way did make her plus then just sympathy it was also played a lot plus settle then Snowdrop's too. Even with that being a dit I am still not a big fan of this kind of sympathy but, I won't call it enough to break a episode.Another problem is most characters of the characters are just bullies who just there to make plus sympathy around Snowdrop. Actually when I think about it most of the episodes problems can just be fixed par fixing the root of the problem the force Sympathy with Snowdrop's character. Besides that there isn't much problems with it. The episode is animation is pretty solid, As cheap as moving us was it still worked, the concept was complex and interesting, and even if it didn't seem like it they did take risks. Plus the moral was really unique in it's own sense. So global, ensemble I think I really liked "Snowdrop".
