I Simp over THE UMBRELLA ACADEMY Season 2 for 19 minutes | Explained 

"She's basically a walking 'no, u'" is the best explanation for Lila's powers in the most concise way it could be told.

I'm just saying Klaus is the child of a miraculous birth, can speak to the dead, and has actually seen the coming apocalypse. How is he not an actual Prophet?

Hargreeves shutting Diego down and making him stutter again had me in tears.

The best scene was of Allison, Klaus and Vanya bonding and dancing in the salon. Also, they FINALLY nipped the weird Luther/Allison romance in the bud by pointing out that it was weird that they had to say that it "technically" wasn't incest! 😂

Ellen Page as a cottage core lesbian is everything and if that makes me simp her I'm okay with that. Also I still can't get over Öga Foröga

I get annoyed when klaus doesn’t tell everyone that Ben is there, he’s gonna regret it season 3 probably

Luther and Diego sharing a single brain cell this season was one of my favorite things about this season

Still can’t get over that line that Diego said:”I made that machine my bitch”that was iconic

I personally volunteer as Vanya's love interest in season 3. I'll take the bullet. No need for anyone else to audition.

a little detail i love is that in Dave's last scene, the guy that hurries him to get on the bus calls him "marine", meaning that even though he ended up enlisting earlier, he enlisted in the marine instead of the army.

"Amanda simps over ellen page!" that is...the most relatable thing i've ever heard

Season 2 is way better than season 1, seeing the family bonding and Vanya being happy and connecting with her siblings made me very happy

Poor Olga probably still thinks she's gonna die..

I didn’t even catch the connection between Harlan’s toy and the new name for the academy. Im assuming that Harlan will have something to do with building the new academy with Hargreeves

the one thing i really loved this season was how they developed Allison's character... wasn't the biggest fan of her in season 1 but they made her sooo likeable here i loved her

Watching Five butcher the council was one of the most satisfying things i've ever seen

When are people going to stop torturing the girl that can blow up the moon? It NEVER ends well.

Can't wait to see what they mess up next! Much love to Elliot Page for being his authentic self

I cried at Ben's sacrifice. Like, ugly cried

If Vanya doesn't take a trip back to Milf Town next season I'm going to be really upset.

I'm still trying to figure out who has the bigger daddy issues: Luther or Diego?

I thought the farmers husband was a well done character. He was a good man for the times, but an antagonist to Vanya. His actions were measured and restrained, which isn't the norm for characters like him. He didn't hit his wife or his son, and he pretty much ASKED Vanya to leave (A few homophobic threats sprinkled in). I was genuinely surprised.

How could you miss the fact that the Sparrow academy is different because when Reggie met them he thought they were to big of a mess so he just got another set of kids Holy crap what if Lila's there

“the butterfly affect” me: immediately thinks of chris from until dawn

I, a poor bisexual, felt very attacked by this season

Lila is literally a walking uno reverse card and I love it

I really liked the season, but I most definitely didn't like how the show kinda brushed the whole "Vanya's so hurt and angry she ended the world" bit aside. I really wanted to see the academy genuinely deal with that and work trough it.

I completely read Klaus as having initially become that lady's boy toy.

This season made me so excited as a history buff, the way they wove in actual history with the story is fantastic, especially (spoilers?) with the use of the Umbrella Man, who was a real person on the grassy knoll and fits so well into the umbrella motif that I literally screamed when I saw him

Probably they never got adopted together after dear old dad met them in the 60s and he said "screw them"

Harlan’s toy is a *sparrow* and has powers “before” everyone else (cuz time travel) Reggie is on his quest to get powered kids and names it the *sparrow* academy coincidence? I think not

also another thing i appreciated was the lgbtq+ representation and how normal it is when brought up it’s not made into a huge deal when Vanya talks about her sudden love for a girl and the same for Klaus it’s just “oh they love someone of the same gender ok cool “ their family supports them it isn’t a huge deal that they like the sane gender cuz that’s their sibling as someone who is lesbian in a conservative state it was nice seeing it so normalized in shows with gay characters it’s usually a huge deal and a huge part of their identity which it is but it’s nice to see it be a minor point in a larger plot i hope that makes sense lol

i like how they gave luther an actual character, other than 'hE seNt Me To tHe mOon'. He reconciled with vanya, killed of the allison romance, and dialed down the contollignness. THey still retained his core personality traits, but making them more desirable

Did anyone else feel as though Klaus and Ben were done dirty this season? They seemed to be extra catty towards each other, with Klaus not letting Ben speak to his siblings, and Ben forcibly possessing Klaus. Plus, Klaus never got to deal with Ben's second death, as he was never really gone to him, with is a shame. 💔

I still can’t imagine what this must have been like for Harlan. The powers must have been so overwhelming for any young person, but especially for someone (likely) on the spectrum.

We need 2 mini series to come out about this 1 Klaus and Dave in Vietnam 2 The Swedes' origin story

I feel like they forgoed some of Klaus’ development in favour of meme-ifying him more. Yeah he was the breakout hit from the last season, but making him constantly spew sass and gifable one liners (read dramatic moment when both of his siblings may have died in the penultimate episode) detracted from the rounded character they set out at the beginning

I loved season 2 so much! Just kept thinking about how for Five, this has been just a very stressful three weeks, whereas the others have all had at least some time for growth and change. Also, Allison having to silently grieve Claire - and then instantly wanting to go to her when they get back to 2019, only to realise that it's a different timeline so... Claire may not exist?! I just 😱😱😱

Klaus: born via immaculate conception, can commune with the dead, and knows when the end times are coming - sounds pretty Messiah-ish to me. There also the fact that he can come back to life- oh no wait that was his misfits character.

My feelings for the characters: Handler: I hate you and I hate that I love you. The Hargreeves: I love these human disasters. Pogo: Yeah, just because you're cute doesn't mean I'm forgetting about what you did Reginald Hargreeves: Screw you Reggie. Screw you with a rusty knife.

Such an improvement on season 1. The whole thing is just so comfy feeling, with the siblings feeling more like siblings.

i love the fact that ellen page gives off so much lesbian energy that this season they were like we really can’t make the love interest a boy again it doesn’t work i’m sorry

Season two of Umbrella Academy was so good it returned my will to live during the pandemic.

Sparrow Academy? Like the sparrow toy Harlan was playing with?

Glad to see this- I’ve seen nothing but negativity from online publications about season 2, but I thought it was great. The only thing I would change is letting Gerard Way putting more than one of his songs in a season.

Huh your recap just made me realise the Sparrow Academy is probably connected to Harlan with him messing with the Sparrow toy. I wonder if he becomes the first super hero called "Sparrow" and the academy is named after him.

The only thing that i can't take of the season is luther and im not talking about his character im talking about his powers at the start of the season he takes the shoot from a tank to back and he's just smileing then he he gets KO by some random guy, he gets KO by the fire extinguisher and kill by a asult rifle. I mean c'mon.

When a show that has nothing to do with the X-Men dose the X-Men storylines Better then the entire X-Men movies

as a swede the only thing i didnt like about this season is that the "swedes" didnt even try to speak swedish correctly. five said öga för öga very good tho

It greatly annoyed me that Allison didn't tell her husband about her powers. Especially when he got mad at her because he thought she was a covert government agent.

I keep hearing people say "Reginald designs a robot based on the actual Grace!" But am I the only one who's 95% sure Reginald somehow turned human Grace into a robot and forced her into the immortal subservient wife/mother role (Black Mirror/Get Out takeover stuff)??? He was super threatening to her when she asked him his sketchy documents, and it's not exactly like he's a good person who cares about others' autonomy. The moments of clarity Grace seems to get in her eyes sometimes make me think so.

Why are Diego and Lila completely socially accepted in the 60s? Are the writers not aware that racism wasn’t exclusively aimed at black people? Hispanic and all foreigners got it just as bad yet Diego and Lila were always fine and literally never faced discrimination in the 60s.

Reggie: _"I'm not adopting those losers again this time around."_

Ya all sleeping on the true hero of this season; Kate Walsh's wildly fluctuating Swedish.

“Daddy issues... the show!” Now with a second season!

For me, season 1 was about everything which can go wrong in traumatic circumstances, while season 2 - what comes out right in these circumstances

I really like this season. However, I really missed fun scenes like "I think we're alone now" and "dancing in the moonlight" ones. To be honest, that whole episode that has "dancing in the moonlight" in it, is still my favorite episode in the show. Second season is great, but it lacks that random, charming, fun that first season had.

My hope, though it's a slim one, is that Sissy did get approached by Herb who'd explain he could help Harlan and takes both of them on a tour of the Commission, leading to her becoming one of the behind the scenes agents. That way, she'd be able to go and have visits with Vanya anywhere in time they wanted to go.

I loved it so much, binged the whole season as soon as it was out 😂

I just love imagining how much that actor that does 5 loves his gig. Most actors his age get stuck doing roles like 'awkward tween love interest' or 'sad boy' or 'divorced child plot moppet' and he's like 'I get to be a badass to dope music and swing an axe around'. Just love it lol

Can someone explain how Lila learned about her powers, if her power is copying other powers? 🤔

Its so fucking weird hearing elliots dead name-

The best thing is Five yelling "I'm the daddy here" on Luther

As Scooby would say, "Ranya's a resbian?"

Me: *a poor pansexual* TUA Season 2: *exists* Me: *chuckles* I'm in danger

Just here to drop a like. I'll be back when I'm done watching the whole season. Currently on episode 6

I literally watched the whole of season two in one day I loved it so much and I just need to put that out into the world lol

The scene in the hair salon with Klaus, Vanya and Allison was just the sweetest and I've rewatched it many times. Also they said in an interview they had an actual choreography for the dance but dropped it and just went ahead being silly because it felt more natural and that was a great choice

I was expecting for Amanda to refer AJ as fishman. And she did. Also more simping for Ellen Page? Yes PLEASE. This video rules! 🥰

For me Five's "I'm the daddy here!" line and Diego's "I made that machine my bitch!" were my favourite lines of the show. I enjoyed this season even more than season 1. I thought it'd be impossible but here we are.

Everything with Harlan pulled at my heartstrings so bad! ❤😢 My 9yo is autistic & the scene when the record player broke really hit home...like "You get that bear hug going, mama! Keep assuring him it will be alright."

Only downside to me was Diego. I don't remember him being a raging moron in the first season. He got on my last nerve this one. I will admit I did feel really bad for him when their father shut him down and he started stuttering again. Other than that 2 thumbs up, better than season 1, can't wait for season 3.

I liked it a lot but I felt it was missing something, and after talking to my friend the thing we missed most was hazel and chacha relationship. I know why they couldn't show up but the show lacked a fun dynamic like theirs everyone else had some really heavy stories. But overall I loved it

This makes me feel better about the fact that they aren't giving us anymore Dirk Gently.... I still want Bart back, but Vanya is a whole spirit animal

this season of UA was so good it felt like a warm blanket on a rainy day

That lesbian rep really made my little gay heart sore. As if I wasn’t already simping *hard* for Ellen Page

The fact that she Changed the description after Elliot came out... We stan

It's kinda sad because I watched it all in one night and now it's all over. 😔

Yeah this show was definitely hit and miss. 99% Hit and 1% Miss, but even this Misses grazed the ball. Like I can understand how people grow from start to finish and majority of the characters are done well. The hero complex of Diego is a bit annoying as it jut feels like he’s trying to pull the story away to his thing. The girl who was planted there as a spy was a bit obvious for me from the start when she could fight properly so that wasn’t as impactful, especially since I knew she’d most likely change sides. But besides those little nit picks the show was great. 5s whole story here was done well, he grew his powers as he can do slight time travel now. Klaus as ok with his cult stuff, I wasn’t as surprised that he started a cult and then wanted to leave. Bens emotions about the entire thing was understandable as he just wanted to see everyone get better and go home, and helped Vanya with her emotions. Luther was probably the weakest of the stories I think but it’s still very good I think they should of given him more or something different than working in an underground fighting pit. Allison was understandable as she was fighting in the Black Lives Matter movement as this is something she would do, and the love between her and her husband felt real. Sir Reginald was acted quite well as I loved how he was acting due to being accosted by these guys. They’re all shocked about why he would harm them and it’s like he didn’t know them at all and they snuck into his business. All in all I would give it 9.5/10 some little things could be tweaked but besides from that I enjoyed it whole heartedly. Good music choices again during fights, fight choreography was amazing as I was so engaged during it. Also can I say that this was an amazing video made by you

I love you came back to this to note Elliot's name in the comment.

I really love that Diego is allowed to be emotionally soft and to cry. I love his character so, so much

Me in all episodes: Please [name], stop no stop being dumb

I was waiting for your take on this season the second I finished watching. You called Vanya being bisexual and I love that

Honestly the part of sissy and Vanya holding and touching hands filled me with so much joy, I've rewatched that scene so many times.

Also that Olga Forolga scene. That had me in tears.

A ''walking no u'' is such a good desciption of Lila lol

Watching this season reminded me how many types of people I'm attracted to

If you guys want a good show about weird timelines/time travel, I would recommend watching Dark on Netflix.

i’m really happy vanya was included in the mission 🥰

Would also love to have seen Allison’s husband at a bbq with the rest of them. Even as just a stupid side story. That would have been funny as hell.

Five, the time traveller who is always late.

loved this season even more than the first one. I wished for Sissy to get into the future with Vanja, both for the sake of their relationship, her personal safety and because Harlands life could have been much easier with the help of modern medicine and knowledge

The scene that I didn't expect to make me tear is when Diego started to stutter when answering Sir Reginald Diego: You're wr....wrong My heart: Just died

I think I know why ben and klaus were acting so catty towards each other. Klaus spent the entirety of last season trying to do better and Ben was really happy to see that, but the minute they landed in the 60s Klaus went back to not caring a bit, and I think that broke Ben's heart a bit, so he lashed out at Klaus constantly

Oh my lorrrrrrd. Sissy, Harlan and Ray could all feasibly still be alive in the timeline and I wanted a scene with the Umbrella Academy members reuniting with their relationships from the 60s in present day. Maybe later in the story.

I love that Five tells Klaus 'kids ride in back' and he is the one person that is fine with this. Just, 'Okay!' and crawls in the back.

I had a lot of fun with the second season. I personally prefer the first season but both were really good.

I prefer season 1 to 2 but I think both are real great television. I just like season 1's darker tone and themes of parental abuse and it's lasting effects which I feel like season 2 didn't really have any themes and traded them in for a lighter tone. I have my nitpicks for both seasons but I overall really love the show

Season 2 was awesome. Can’t wait for S3!

Amanda’s videos have been a huge bright spot in my quarantine :)
