Literally every amaya scene in the dragon prince s1 - s3 to your hearts content. ( i may have missed out a few but it's fine) #thedragonprince #scenepack
@@2345matit's not a friend zone. there's nothing romantic between Amaya and Gren. you need to grow up and accept that men and women can be friends without any romantic or sexual interest being involved.
i love that Amaya is a disabled character in a fantasy setting, with no fantasy "replacement" for her disability. I've seen a lot of characters who can basically function like able-bodied people, because of magic or sci-fi tech acting as a stand-in for their disability. but Amaya is a human with no magical powers, she's not a mage like Callum or Viren, but she's still a capable and well-written character who can kick ass. also love that not only does she have a translator, but her family and close friends seem to either already have learned sign language for her benefit, or are trying to learn sign language. it's really heartwarming.
TheDragonPrinceOfficial account answered an ask on tumblr about this. She was blind for a little while, but they didn’t have time to show it. Apparently there was going to be another scene of Janai helping Amaya as her sight slowly returned, but it never got past the brainstorming stage, since there wasn’t enough time for it in the episode.
I am currently studying to be an ASL interpreter in college. I love that in scenes where there is no interpretater, we don’t get subtitles. My brothers all called to me to translate what she was saying in that prayer scene and I told them that it wasn’t translated intentionally. I think it shows hearing people what being deaf is like, in a sense, because you don’t know what she is saying, you’re missing character motivation and what she’s saying. Deaf people have that happen all the time in real life. After I explained this to them, I did give them rough translations. I’m not a good enough interpreter yet to do full translations, and it can be a bit hard to understand the signs when you’re use to seeing them as smooth motions (this is pretty choppy, which is understandable). I only gave them the translations because they asked nicely though, haha. This has to be one of my favorite representations of a deaf character in media. She isn’t relying on interpreter to do what she needs to do, HEARING people are relying on her interpreter. She is capable alone, and that isn’t a common thing to seen in media. It’s super cool.
I got interested in this show because I'm trying to write a deaf character for one of my stories. The thing is I don't know much about Deaf culture, and I know it'll take more than watching one show but I'm willing to learn!
@@impactframes6514 I would highly reccomend trying to involve yourself in the Deaf Community if you can! My experience with Deaf Culture is incredibly positive, and most people are so happy to help you understand them when you make an effort to use their language. You can learn so many beautiful stories from them. A lot of people in the Deaf World have had pretty sad childhoods (especially the older generations) so do try to be mindful of them and their feelings, and I'm sure you'll learn a whole lot! :D
amaya is the perfect character, shes strong even with a disability, a loving aunt, carefree most of the time but when it counts shes a hell of a fierce fighter
Ngl the first thing i thought when she took off her helmet was "is that a lesbian?" & her first meeting w Janai i was like "ohhoHO they're BOTH lesbians" anywho Janaya is endgame Edit: ...guess who called it season 4
1:58. I would like to point out to all the hearing folks that when Amaya said "it's okey Callum, I've slain monsters before." She used the chopping motion of cutting pie.
I believe that over the next four seasons if will be revealed that certain human characters have affinities with the other arcanums just as Calumn has an affinity with the wind arcanum. Who else think that Amala has a connection with sun fire?
Something I notice with Grenn upon second viewing of the series after season 4 trailer dropped Grenn knows Amaya can read lips and but he chooses to sign back to her instead of speaking English, THATS how you know they’re friendship is pretty close!
i doubt that fighting itself would be hard for a deaf person, but i can imagine it would be more difficult to communicate with her soldiers during battle.
We learn enough about Amaya in the very first episode. 1) She loves her nephews(Evidenced by how the first thing she did was hug the boys). 2) She is deaf, but very expressive(Though I thought she was mute at first). 3) She’s a badass(Took out Rayla in a fight).
I do like the added bonus that her troops do know some basic sign language, makes sense for their commander and easy to communicate when talking won't do
Can’t wait to see she says she want to go to the bathroom in ASL(Thumb between the pointer and middle fingers in a closed fist) that would be very awkward.
So i just started the show and the king is my favorite character. But then he died and i got sad. Then i saw Amaya and i instantly knew she'd be my favorite. But since this video is so short i assume she wont be apart of the show for long 😭😭 I'm not watching this vid. So if you comment don't spoil anything.
She read his lips and could clearly see that he said "human troops" slower than the rest of the sentence, plus he was shouting it, which looks different from normal speech. Also, he looked up as he said it, which was suspicious.
@@zoharamitai8719 Don't call me sweetie, I'm not yours and it's gross. I wouldn't be here if I hadn't watched it either you twit. Woah, what a good argument.
@@sleeperboi8701 who says the 'sweetie' part was anywhere near romantic? It was to demune you, because I'm guessing you're can't be more than 12. The Dragon Prince celebrates diversity, yes, even LGBT people. In case you haven't noticed. Amaya herself is confirmed to be in a relationship with Janai. Deal with it.
Amaya(Dragon Prince) vs Marci from (Dota) Prepare for insults and taunts. Amaya: Marci: Me: What the hell is that? Marci / Amaya looking at me and saying: Me: Uhmmm 🤨😐 Mirana: His confuse amuse me 😁 Few moment later IO, Phoenix, Primal Beast entered my team Me: God please.
