Re: So... Mulan...

[elaminator]

But is she really bi, though? A lot of people seem to think she had feelings for Phillip, but she never said so (and she didn't look defensive when she told Aurora she didn't) so I'm going to see if the show mentions it. (Even I thought she did at first, but until we get confirmation I think it could play out either way.)

Bi or gay, I think it's awesome. Fandom had absolutely nothing to do with it though; I'm sure the writers have been planning this for some time.

I think the writing was on the wall when the characters were introduced at the start of season 2. It's a shame that just about everything else about the second season was repellant.

I wasn't a huge fan of the second season either, but I continued watching anyway. IMO you're right, the Mulan/Aurora thing has been around from the beginning but it flew over a lot of people's heads. There's plenty of people on tumblr going, "But was Mulan really about to reveal her feelings for Aurora, or was she going to tell her about her love for Phillip?"

Not to mention the whole "Disney's first bisexual character" thing. Ok, ABC Studios *may* be getting a free trademark pass on blatant product placement for Animation Studios and Consumer Products (not to the show's benefit), but ABC, Marvel, and ESPN are independent parts of the conglomerate, and I don't expect to see Princesses(tm) and etc get anything from OuaT continuity. Especially after Snow's affair with Frankenstein (and Charming's ridiculous double-standard), Belle becoming the show's dramatic punching bag, and the Boy Who Would Never Grow Up reduced to the missing genetic link to Rumple and Henry.

Yea, OUAT is pretty self contained, I don't think this is going to translate into a lot of cash or change. The show could get better ratings (at least for a while) because people are curious, but it could also hurt ratings if people flip out; maybe TPTB did want to do something for the fanbase, but I don't believe this is solely in reaction to their desires.
