My daughter decided Freki is her favorite and she wanted me to draw him for her. So here he is!

Mara attacked 4 innocent kids, the school librarian, and destroyed a significant portion of the library during school hours, and Sunspear has a very open, public, and violent grudge against a specific student. Maybe there'll be consequences in the next season, but these dudes seem way more dangerous than Key and his crew.

The Twitter account "The Disney Beat" announced that we'll have a lot of exciting things in store for September.

A new music video will premiere on September 4th, and every week of the month, new episodes of something called Dragon Striker: Gorotama Stars will be released.

I don't know what the latter will be, but who knows, maybe we'll get little sneak peeks like in the Meet the Players clips.

You think in a world of magic where people fart rainbow clouds, turn into werewolves, and summon literal ghosts, there would be a Tama that can heal people, but does healing not exist?

Warning: spoilers ahead.

His character was portrayed in a really interesting way. At first glance, he looks intimidating—a big, muscular guy who stood out from the rest—but it turned out he was incredibly shy and anxious. He is the complete opposite of Oddward:

O: slender, hair yellow at the bottom, black at the top

M: muscular and broad, hair black at the bottom, yellow at the top

O: calm, unemotional, unfriendly, brave

M: anxious, emotional, kind, timid

O: mastered, spectacular Tama

M: a funny Tama that he was ashamed of

I think his parents might have contributed to these differences by putting Oddward on a pedestal while ignoring or disregarding Milo. There’s plenty of room for speculation here, since we don’t know anything about their parents yet.

I’m really glad he found friends who support him. With them, he learned to use his jelly for Gorotama games and stopped being ashamed of it. Interestingly, whenever the Knights combine their Tama, they do it with his. Combining the jelly with Key’s dragon created a jelly dragon, with Ssyele, it produced a time jelly and with Ameline, an anti-Tama jelly. He hasn't tried it with his brother yet, though I think it would be unnecessary since Oddward’s illusions are realistic enough as it is. I do wonder why they only combine Tama with him, and whether they could manage without Milo. Perhaps there is something about Milo that allows their magical powers to merge.

I was also a bit surprised that the spirits are afraid of the jelly and how it affects them. I saw a post suggesting that maybe his jelly contains salt instead of sugar. That would explain its taste and the damage it inflicted on the spirits during the match against the Shadows.

"Today's character is not a Gorotama player, as poor Ralfio's tama is quite useless and mostly embarrassing, as he simply "release" a big colorful smoke explosion when he gets nervous or sick..."

Maybe he can used as a smokescreen that's useful.

Primarily, the incident was not a minor matter, and depending on each character's perspective, it can be interpreted differently.

I'm sure Surya will project his hatred onto Casper, because not only was he burned like him, but on the exact same side of his face. He'll surely try to constantly instill the same hatred he feels for Edina in Casper so that Casper develops a hatred for Key. But I believe this will have rather the opposite effect.

To continue, I want to share one of my favorite threads from this series: https://x.com/mochikattt_/status/2075303543662096644?s=46

As noted there, I believe Casper is in a state of denial regarding his mistakes in the series. He knows he's wrong but refuses to accept it, and I feel this incident will be the catalyst that helps him improve.

He knows that Surya ordered them to kill Key and is fully aware of what he told Key about his mother. I feel that when he has a moment to reflect, he will realize what he said and feel terribly guilty, since it is known from a comment by someone who worked on the series that the twins' mother is also dead. It would also be good if his father were the one to talk some sense into him. There's no way the man won't give him the scolding of his life if he finds out what he said about Key’s mother.

This, combined with Surya's attempts to make him hate Key and the fact that Surya is most responsible (along with Casper) for the burn, will make him realize his mistake and reconsider. My biggest bet is that he'll give up being a Bard.

Now, with Callista, she's the one of the twins with the more violent and aggressive tendencies. She knows what Surya asked for, but we still don't know if she also knew what Casper was going to say about the mother. From her perspective, it's likely she only saw Key explode out of nowhere and burn her brother's face. I feel she would be much more susceptible to the hatred Surya tries to incite than Casper, and that if Surya realizes he can't manipulate Casper, he'll try to manipulate Callista.

If what I theorize comes true, then Casper will leave the Bards and defend Key and the Knights, paralleling Surya, and this action would create a rift between Casper and Callista, causing the latter to fall into decadence at Surya's hands.

What do you think?

"More Dragon Striker concept art, and kinda a follow up to my [students design](https://www.tumblr.com/lilblueorchid/824308062632427520?source=share). I was asked to imagine snippets of life at school, with or without the heroes.

The goal was to make the school feel alive, even off-camera!"

What was highlighted was in a description for the Disney Dragon Striker Challenge torunament in Xanadu. This event was made to promote the release of the Dragon Striker TV show.

And with the show trending on Disney+, I believe this has potential to become Disney's next big thing, especially with its' worldbuilding, and possibly more seasons that Dos Santos and Lefebvre are hoping for.

So... I was wondering... would you like WDI to make some cool Dragon Striker stuff, like a land for a Disney park, some prescence in a Disney ship, and some other places?

I see some Dragon Striker land in DHS that could be Disney's answer to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, an entertainment area for the Disney Cruise Line, some innovative soccer experience that the Imagineers could take a risk and try, and possibly a 2.5D stage show like Blue Lock!

When I asked Sylvain Dos Santos about having the show working at a Disney park, he told me that that's his dream, but the crew isn't there yet.

I say this as someone who believes that Disney shows deserve a chance to shine more than the films by WDAS, Pixar, and the stuff from Star Wars and Marvel.

Hopefully Josh D'Amaro, Bruce Vaughn, and Thomas Mazloum wouldn't mind about giving Disney TV shows a chance... right?

Since Disney shows from the Disney Kids & Family banner are concived towards franchising the IP across Disney's ecosystem with consumer stuff, from what I knew.

But let's hope that the show doesn't get screwed Eww-ich style...

So we might as well keep showing our big support for the show if Disney wants to keep it alive.

I may get flack for this, but I feel like Tamas haven't been properly explained. Are they sentient magic beings that grant people amazing abilities, or are they just magic that you're born with? I mean, Key's Tama is alive, and Pergrina can control ghosts. What do you think?

Warning: spoilers ahead.

It’s hard to say anything definitive here. We know nothing about her parents, just as we know nothing about her; she is a complete mystery. But let’s focus on what we do know. She possesses strange inventions—somewhat reminiscent of our own technology—that others fail to recognize, and she is interested in peculiar magic; her Tama resembles a leech and has the ability to steal other Tamas. She knows who Agromar is, and the drawings in her diary resemble those found in the tunnel—or whatever it was—that the Knights discovered in Episode 11. She is certainly either extremely introverted or hiding something, which explains her unusual behavior.

How could her Tama be upgraded? I think there are two ways. The first is a bit odd but effective: after absorbing someone’s Tama, she could spit it into a special container designed to keep it trapped inside. The second method: since she can breathe through her nose after swallowing a Tama, she could potentially hold onto someone else’s Tama for a long time, given that she rarely opens her mouth anyway. She could also, for instance, siphon up multiple Tamas at once.

I constantly get the feeling that she is hiding something. I suspect she might have encountered a "leech" before—perhaps one attacked her family—and now she wants revenge by getting rid of them. However, that doesn't explain why she has no surname. How did they even allow her to attend the school without knowing who she really is? But as we all know, the Goyens often turn a blind eye. There are old character descriptions on Pinterest, and I found one for Ameline. With a little help from AI—since the text was hard to decipher—I read that the creators originally intended for Ameline to be an alien who sought to capture the evil magic from the Helmet of Banners at night. I don’t know how much of that remains—since, for instance, Calista was originally supposed to be named Paula—so I’m not sure. But they definitely kept some elements of that idea.

Warning: spoilers ahead.

I think Ssyele has French roots—or something like that; it might be a different country, but from that region—judging by her surname, which gives me that impression, and her dad's accent.

Ssyele is a truly amazing person. She has an extraordinary character: she is brave, intelligent, tenacious, usually composed, and very likable. She is arguably a favourite among most fans. Yet, despite these qualities, she sometimes acts just like Key—impulsively. She jumped into an abyss after a boy she had known for perhaps two days in total; she turned down offers to play on a team where she and Tama would have been stars; and shortly after joining the school, she was already playing in a shorthanded lineup alongside the experienced, older Roses and the twins in the Forge—even though she could have simply waited for Caliban’s return. Fortunately, however, everything turned out well.

As for her Tama, I hope she develops it—for instance, by expanding the time-stop field, stopping a player or the ball even from a distance, or being able to move normally while inside the field herself. I’m sure there will be a way to upgrade her Tama.

I’m glad she’s such a great protagonist. She’ll likely play a crucial role for Key and in uncovering the identity of the Leech.

With all the promotional videos for Dragon Striker, I had a thought. Back in 2017, there were 360 videos, an adventure 360 one for *DuckTales*, and several Behind The Scenes 360 videos for *Descendants 2*. Now hear me out. While I don’t know if 360 stuff is outdated or not, I think that they could have some sort of interactive 360 video for *Dragon Striker*, where you could be in the bleachers and watch as a Gorotama match unfolds, or see through the eyes of a player on the field. Could work as a VR game too, but that’s just my personal opinion.
