I really think Mal Oretsev is the worst endgame romantic interest in existence.

Really.

There are many canonical ships I disagree with, but Malina ? This is the worst of all for me.

Alina had so much potential, and it was all wasted on a stupid tracker ; When she could have had the Darkling or Nikolai !

As much as I will always wonder what could be wrong in Alina's head to prefer her childhood friend to these two, and also what could have been going on in Leigh Bardugo's head when she wrote the character of Mal and the Malina relationship.

Like... she didn't notice that the character and the relationship were catastrophic ? Is that the height of romance for her ?

It sucks...

okay but in all honesty, what tf are they doing with nikolai & alina bc in my opinion i don’t like what they’re doing. like i know they’re setting up for KoS bc you see a bee land on zoya in the last episode & they’re obviously setting up for zoyalai (hopefully) bc of the whole “i could fix him.” thing, but how are they gonna do that bc they ended the season with alina as queen so im extremely confused and a little worried abt what next season is gonna look like

Mini-reviewe of Season 2 Shadow and Bone

SPOILERS ALERT!!!!

First of all, I love this season (there are little things I am mad about, but in my mind they don't exist).

I'm gonna start with the Crows: love the different story of wesper (it's different from the books but it fits with the show?), love the moments we have of kanej and their evolution ("I would have you without your armor, Kaz Brekker), love the moments of Mathias trying to survive in Hellgate and Nina doing everything in her power to change the mistake she did, love their dinamic as a group (even if we only have five of them, in the moment), love all their stories individually (especially the sad flashbacks of Kaz and Jesper learning to embrace his power), love all the references to the books ("I kinda like your face" or "I burried him six feet under"), love the dinamic of Nina and Inej or the dinamic of Wylan and Kaz, love the crows dinamic with the "sab characters" (Jesper and Toyla, Nina and Zoya, Zoya and Inej, Kaz and Nikolai). In summary, I really love the crows.

Now, I'm gonna talk about all the things that I loved about the story of Siege & Storm and Ruin & Rising: love how they did the connection between Alina and the Darklin, love the hints of Mal being the third amplifier, love the entrence of Sturmhound and the entrance of Nikolai, love Genya's history and how amazing they portray it ("ask me how I did it"), love Nikolai discovering the wrongs of his family and working for a better future, love David and every thing he does, love Baghra and the diference of her sacrifice, love the siblings and their banter (Tolya and Tamar, Nadia and Adrik), love the little moments between Tamar and Nadia, love that thay don't let Toyla recite poetry until they've won the battle, love Zoya (just love her), love the end of the Darkling ("goodbye Aleksander"), love the end of Malina, love the friendship of Nikolai and Alina (even if Nikoali wants more).

I just really loved everything and how they did it!

And the end!!!!! The fact that they give us hints of what could happen in six of crows spin-off or king of scars.

*chef kiss*

Spoiler for Shadow and Bone season 2...

So... Alina killed the Darkling. She didn't hold his hand and didn't whisper his name. She was standing there watching him die... Nice.

My tears flowed as he swore he had found peace for a while, and closed his eyes thinking of the first time Alina kissed him ! And don't even get me started on the "My little Saint" he utters just before taking his last breath...

Oh and she finally chose to become queen of Ravka... ?!

And in the end six of crows grisha drug (jurda parem) is introduced.

Nikolaï and his scars are also present. Which implies that we will definitely see the Darkling again if there is a sequel. (We know King of Scars)

And a grisha tries to kill everyone at the coronation after take the jurda parem, and Alina uses the fucking Darkling power to cut her in half and... very clearly she likes doing that. She had a kind of almost pleasurable grin ?!

I forgot to specify that suddenly Alina keeps her powers finally. A good thing at least.

But... I'm very angry.

They took away the good Darkling death scene from me which was a nice Darklina scene. And obviously we are not rid of her and badly for the future.

They will continue to link all grisha and six of crows characters. Except that I don't care to see Alina and company again ! Was it so fucking hard to wrap up grisha and move on to six of crows ?!

On the other hand, the little scene between Alina and Nikolaï at the end... The chemistry is there. But I know she'll end up with Mal later for the futures seasons... 😒

Besides, damn how well did they shove Malina down our throats this season ! From episode 1 damn ?!

Also, Zoya ogling Nikolai was fun. (These two were literally the only thing I have love from the King of Scars crap duology)

Also, I feel that Alina may be turning dark... Because, the look she had after cutting this woman grisha in half... 😶

And a part of me wants to see this so badly... Give me a corrupted Alina ! Give me Alina becoming a monster to protect people ! (As the Darkling said)

I swear his little smile at the end is so pleasant. She liked using the cut. She liked cutting this woman in half. She liked to feel the power surging through her...

Obviously, they will try to adapt King of Scars at the same time as the sequel with Six of crows... Knowing that Nikolai's duology was full of inconsistencies, I don't know how they will adapt it, especially with the change of Alina keeping her powers, being queen, and with the power of the Darkling as a bonus...

Netflix canceling Shadow and Bone season 3 and not doing a Six of Crows spin-off has got to be one of their dumbest decisions in the past 4 years. It is one of their most popular tv shows and was ranked 1st for weeks after season 1 and 2 dropped around the world. At this point, Netflix is just asking to lose everything because they have continuously canceled the most popular TV shows and try to replace them with really shitty ones.

But, I am so grateful to Leigh Bardugo, all the directors, producers, writers, costume designers, set crew, and literally every single person involved for bringing it all to life and putting their entire beings into making it as perfect as it is.

And of course I will always forever love every single actor for making all my favorite characters walk right off the pages and bring tears to my eyes.
