So to clarify I think the seven is great for what we got but definitely could've been better than having 4 members of the team being bare trained

What I think should've happened is having piper be the one who was once a part of the titans army maybe have Luke use her charmspeak to help convince other gods or monster groups to join there side and possibly have her be more known by the romans

This in turn would give more reason for why the senate and Octavian distrust the seven especially after leo open fires

Other things that could be explored is that Jason being someone who stopped her during the war so when she suddenly gained memories of spending time with Jason when she can remember the first time they met was him trying to cut her head off she'd be freaked and terrified of when Jason remembers his old life as well as what she used to do

Could also give her a reason to want to defend silena because silena was the one who taught her to better use there gift and silena was the one she could rely on

That's all I have for now but would love to hear your thoughts

be peacfull in the comens

while we are all fans of his works, it's undeniable that he isn't as great of a writer as he used to be.

for me, it was somewhere in heroes of olympus. i remember characters like percy and annabeth being OOC there vs in the original series, and i'm NOT talking about the change in POV from first person to third person. blood of olympus was outright terrible.

I’m curious and bored sooooo

Pretty please share your Percy Jackson / Heroes of Olympus / etc etc you get the idea share hot takes and unpopular opinions you have in the comments

Considering the topic, reminder that this is a fictional series and therefore not worth arguing about :) discussion is awesome and doing so is one of my favorite parts about books but it is not worth getting genuinely angry at others over

in SON, it is just generally ignored that Mars was playing dumb about knowing Percy, exactly like Nico was. im paraphrasing this but when Percy was saying he fought Mars, Mars basically said ‘I haven’t fought you *as Mars*‘ meaning he knew the whole time who Percy was and he was just being a jackass for the sake of it

first the amazon they act all tall and myghtei yet far has we know their wer not part of the titan war like camp jupiter meaning the amazon did nothing to help save the wolrd and acat liek thye onw it two campt jupiter seying camp jupiter again know tham im not a kid i underdarstand why jason did not want to goe back their

it mtyhg be a hote take but that my opion pleas dont be mean in the coments

I find it a tad annoying that Percy has been everywhere in the books. Also, Percy didn't really help Magnus; he kinda just wasted Magnus's time by teaching him about nautical terms, which Magnus forgot and didn't even need. But it would be very interesting for the MC and KC to meet each other. Which would be the best friends, do you think?

Examples: Medusa, Lotus Casino, Thalia’s return (when they tell you what’s about to happen, depriving moments of any tension or suspense, giving the characters too much info of what’s about to come)

In Thalia’s return, it meant that the original ending, the “oh fk, we got played” feeling was gone. In SOM even tho they succeeded in the quest which should’ve been a happy ending, everyone was shocked because they realized they got outplayed by Kronos. What would’ve been a happy moment getting a long lost friend back ended up being a massive cliffhanger, suspenseful, etc because of the circumstances surrounding it and what it means for the big prophecy. It threw a massive wrench into the idea that the titular protagonist would be the hero of the big prophecy. Though SOM is considered a weak link I still consider that ending/cliffhanger to be arguably the strongest in the series.

Are the creators making these changes and doing the whole tell don’t show because they assume that viewers are fans who already know how everything plays out so they don’t bother trying to make it suspenseful? Because the viewing experience is negatively impacted for people who aren’t familiar w the source material because the creators aren’t trying with environmental storytelling or subtle foreshadowing.

I hope in season 3 they let Bianca’s parentage and Zoe’s fate be a surprise, as well as Thalia’s decision to join the hunt. I pray that season 3 goes well because TTC has many subtle foreshadowing that would be a shame to reveal so early

Really weird idea I came up with while plotting a fanfic, but I think it has potential. I'd imagine these "demigods" are regular humans infused with demigod blood through some dank Ancient Greek magic or outright created from cultured blood through ritual. I think it could be a fun way to explore the magical side of the Camp-Half-Blood world. What do people think?

I know plenty of people wish the show had been animated. I get it’s a better media to show special effects but it has its disadvantages too.

Animation is reliant on budget too. Look at Arcane. Had great animation due to its budget. However a lot of time was spent between seasons so the same may have occurred for a prospective animated show.

Another thing is that if special effects in live action screw up then you can fall back in the actors physical performance. If that screws up then you have the costume and design.

But if the animation team screws up then oh boy. I don’t know how many of you guys follow anime, but if you are aware of the controversy around Blue Lock Season 2 and One Punch Man Season 3 then you know animation can break a show regardless of of its voice actors or story.

Animation isn’t all sunshine and rainbows compared to live action.
