I have a theory that Annabeth has her own unique power from her Athenian side. I've been calling it True Multitasking. Context: it is impossible for the human brain to truly multitask. Instead, we constantly switch between two tasks or trick ourselves into thinking of two tasks as one task. Annabeth however, has proven to be capable of Multitasking on a level more advanced than any human being. To paraphrase the Mark of Athena when she's confronting Arachne, Annabeth says something along the lines of "Separating her thought process into multiple layers" so she can successfully trick Arachne. Assuming that's taken literally, that would make Annabeth's mental capability and intellect even more astonishing than we could've ever imagined.
Just went and got my copy. On page 543, it reads: "Annabeth's mind split into two different levels: one carrying on the conversation, the other madly grasping for a scheme to survive." Moments later in a couple of pages, she comes up with the idea for the 'Chinese Spider Trap' all while making sure to keep Arachne talking. two entirely separate lines of thought, operating simultaneously and independently of each other, making Annabeth's brain on par with a literal computer in terms of how much tasks it can process at once. Keep in mind she did this while battling what has previously been a crippling phobia.
Annabeth's one of my favourite!!! I just started re reading Percy Jackson and i love how she says to percy "You drool when you sleep" 😂 btw the video is awesome, keep it up!!
its really disappointing how people underestimate her a lot as only Percy's girlfriend and only her intelligence when she is much more than that. She has strong willpower, courageous, quick-witted, and not be tempted to become evil in Tartarus.
She immediately became my favorite character when I realized how much I relate to her. And I'm glad she's got such cool abilities. Though I remember someone saying that Annabeth's super power is common sense, the most useful super power in the group XD
I didn't even realise annabeth had this many abilities ,she is awesome ,imagine if she actually had some powerful powers like other main characters from HoO (the seven )
This is a really nice vid but i have a question. Should wisdom and all of that be considered an ability since trchnically anyone can achieve this while the same doesnt go about abilities like percy bring able to breath underwater?
Great question! Yes technically other characters do have "wisdom" or they can be "wise," however for Annabeth its very prominent that these are her weapons and gifts compared to other demigods. The video would feel incomplete without these abilities. Also I need content 🙃
im a child of athena since i was a kid i liked knitting and weaving once my best friend came to my house and saw a tapestry i was working on and said "yeah youre definitely an athena kid"
me: replays the beginning me: is that... is that test drive **plays it again** me: yeah thats definitely test drive **doesnt pay attention to what he is saying and vibes with the music**
I think it's important to note that Annabeth's fighting skills are as good as Percy's. Percy has even said she has , "whooped his butt on several occasions".
@@אביצאלי-כ8ז I'll be making ranking vids, collabs, short vids that I hope people will enjoy, and some bigger vids like theories again and some other type of PJO vids I've been very interested to make for a while now
I think she's been done dirty in HoO, because for someone whose only real power is smarts she does not really stands out, with other characters still getting clever moments. She only really gets to do much in 3 of the HoO books and in Blood of Olympus the point with her and Piper was about instincts and intellect. While Pipers instincts are needed against the anti-Hephaestus, Annabeth's later infiltration plan is anticipated by the giants, with her getting caught and Piper again being the X factor, it does not feel even. Even in Mark of athena, basically the Annabeth-themed book Percy basically has to sacrifice himself for her in the end so she does not fall into Tartarus alone and inevitably die.
I disagree but its awesome to have differing opinions! I believe Annabeth's smarts is the most interesting out of any demigod, she is strong not because she can create storms, she's strong because she's trained and practiced with strategy, art, history, and people skills in order to be a strong demigod, that to me is so inspiring! Thanks for the comment!
I definitely agree. I don't think Annabeth is that powerful as people make her look like. Because tbh....if we see the last Olympian and the son of Neptune.....i think Nico has more wisdom and cleverness than Annabeth. It's just that he's never brought into the spotlight.
Leo is good at inventing and building stuff but Annabeth could easily beat him at war strategies, memorization, weaving, and a test and u also can’t change my mind. Also she’s the only one who can also control the Argo 2 which is Leo’s invention btw. And also wdym gurl’s literally daughter of the goddess of smarts while Leo is handy but not exactly the brainiac of the group is he?
