I noticed that the first time she was alone. The second time she was with her friends and the third time she was with the people she began her story with. Luz couldn't defeat Belos by herself but with the help of her friends and family she succeeded
I like how simple Luz's best spell is named. Light was Luz's first spell. Light was Luz's weakest spell. Light was Luz's most used spell. Light was also Luz's ultimate spell.
No, he doesn't think he'll win. He's literally playing with Luz, because he knows exactly who she is and who he needs her to be. He _can't_ kill her, since that risks undoing everything he's worked for up to that point.

Yeah a man turned monster by his own toxic outdated beliefs, bigotry and hate. Fitting all things considered as there are people like Belos in the world.
The First Time, Luz was just trying to survive Belos’s attacks… The Second Time, Luz and the Hexside Squad had the lust for blood but weren’t strong enough to stop Belos The Third and Finale Time: Luz and her surrogate family kicked Belos’s ass from the Boiling Isles to Amphibia
Two things from the third fight: When we get the call back to "where do you think magic comes from?" Followed by "From the heart". Its important to note that specifically its 'the bile sac *attached* to a witch's heart'. Its an interesting takeaway and foreshadow as after Belos's defeat via Luz ripping him from the Titan's heart, all titan magic/glyph magic stopped working- as the titan was finally able to pass on. The second is less relevant, but when Gus gets knocked off his staff and the palisman chirps at 4:58 because they're falling. The way Hunter stops and goes to its rescue may be in part, that the chirping sounded a lot like Flapjack.
This is a very good example of character progression and power crawl. Luz didn't stand a chance in her first fight with Belos and it took everything she had just to avoid getting hurt, but in the next two battles we see how far she has come with both her skills and smarts and with help from her loved ones she held her own and finally brought an end to Belos.
5:45 you can actually finally see the wings of the titan as there located on the see floor with some bones and parts sticking up it'll be cool if the finger island was actually a claw that belongs to a wing
I didn't pay attention much, but since theyre so large, (and in that same frame you can see theyre almost out of the atmosphere,) do you think the titans flew through space? coz there is no way theyre that huge and just stayed there
In a lot of ways, Belos was a twisted reflection of Luz. Luz cared about others, Belos only cared for himself. Luz wanted to become a witch and learn their magic, while Belos saw them as vile creatures that needed to be purged. The list goes on.
One of the biggest in my opinion: Luz is able to self-reflect and self-examine. Belos is incapable of self-criticism. Because of this Luz is able to grow and change. Belos can only stagnate and rot. Determination and perseverence are good traits but not without the ability to doubt and question oneself.
If you think about it, Belos didn't care about anything, Not even by himself. Just look at him, he took himself away the few humanity he never had (outside he was a human at some point, but inside he was already that green grime monster) just to do what he thinked was right because in his psychosis, he needed to be the hero of his selfish delusion. He did what he wanted without caring by his own body and mental health.
To me, Belos is an example of someone who can't face reality. Belos spent hundreds of years in this imaginary world where he was some sort of savior of humanity, so much so that he could not see himself for what he truly was.
Yeah I agree where luz can actually face reality even though it gets hard for her excepicaly during her dad's death day every year, when she and the gang were stuck in the human realm in thanks to them, right after the events of hollow mind... it goes on and on
The whole series is basically Christianity taking hold and brainwashing folk into the DARK AGES after the libraries were burned and only the Church's words remained. With the lovely note to Paganism villianisation in holidays, symbolism and generalised culture. It has SO MANY digs at Christianity and toxic religious mindset.
And that's really just the first of the instances of religious subtext in this series. There's also the reclamation of queer identity in ancient mythologies v. traditional interpretations (the Titan is bigender), criticism of missionaries acting as an extension of colonialism, implicit support of liberation theology, Luz becoming a messiah figure (she literally returns from the dead, imbued with the soul of the god), Belos becoming both the False Prophet and the Dragon from the Book of Revelation, and the implied superiority of general revelation over special revelation as a means to democratize spirituality and combat the overbearing authority of institutionalized religion. And that's just the stuff I've been able to think of so far.
Something that I like about the fights with belos is that (unlike how most cartoons would have her beat him without any struggle), Luz never actually did beat belos by herself, and in the second fight with her friends, they still weren't able to beat him because they're all still just kids.
And if it weren't for her companions in the third fight, she wouldn't be able to separate him from the heart in time. That's a beautiful message honestly, way better than having her be strong enough in the end to do it all by herself
I still find it cool how in the second fight when Gus shows belos the memory’s of what he did to his brother he gets angry and puts his hands on his head like he’s saying Make it stop! But that means he does in-fact have regret for what he did to his brother.
@@Powered1Buttercup given belos, he regrets killing his bro, but he wouldnt phrase it like that. More like "My only regret is caleb making me kill him. If only he listened and saw the error of his ways"
Belos likely regrets killing his brother but is unwilling (and by the end of the show, unable) to take accountability for it. Right up until the end, he blamed Caleb, magic, the Isles....everything/one except himself. That regret is likely behind the parade of Grimwalkers. He wanted his image of his brother back. Belos only connects with the world as it relates to and impacts him, like a very selfish child. He regretted killing Caleb, but I'm not sure he felt genuine remorse for it.
@@lupinforestgreen7614 He probably did, but was also unable to move on from it and just tried to rationalize it by making it everyone else's fault but his own, he never grew up after all this time and only let his negative feelings consume and blind him until the very end, and died never having changed mentality in all those years. Very sad, but well also at this point it's pretty much pointless to try to reason with people like him, extremists who will always think they are right no matter the evidence to the contrary, narrow-minded idiots who will never be able to grow up as people.
Something interesting that I noticed is the parallels between the first and 3rd fight. In the first fight, Luz used Fire, Ice, and used a staff to fly, in that order. Exactly like the final fight, where she uses Fire to burn away Belos, Ice to create a platform in front of Belos, and used a staff to fly towards Belos. We can even go as far as to say that, when she tried a counterattack, Belos tried to stop her, but the attack got destroyed (the huge worm that Luz burned, and the tentacles that Eda, King and Raine destroyed), before finally landing an hit.
There was a huge improvement for the music throughout all three battles, and it was absolutely incredible. Watching and Dreaming music is some of the best music I've ever heard
You know what, I’ll give belos this, he is a determined man. The isles were against him, the titan was against him and he constantly held his own if not defeated the most powerful witches in all of the boiling isles. It took luz, powered up by the titan, one of the most powerful witches eda who also has the powers of the owl beast, Rein one of the strongest covenheads and King a literal titan to finally take him down.
I like how they call him Belos even after they know his name because Phillip was his human name, and the guy's just about as far from human as you can get.
Luz still dosent want to call him Phillip because of Hallow Mind and her thinking she was so stupid to help him. And I'm pretty sure everyone was used to calling him Belos anyway.
First, as a magic user, notably far more powerful than anything else in the show up to that point, just barely taken down with a cheap trick. Second, the beginning of his transformation into his more eldritch goop form, but still remaining humanoid enough. Third, an eldritch deity of rot and moss, creating a Kaiju and nearly gaining control of the entire Isle’s corpse as his puppet.
If his idea of saving was to destroy his entire home world, then he had a lot of screws loose. Makes me glad Luz was able to stop Belos before he took full control of the Papa Titan.
Oddly enough, I just realized how much Belos reminds me of Amalthus from Xenoblade 2. He lost someone very important so he set out to “fix” the world, in his efforts he became lost in his own delusions, ultimately fusing with something that holds the world together to try and defeat the protagonists, and was lost in his self-centered story where he was the hero until the very end
Dude even became a dragon. Dragons are often associated with the devil in Christian mythos. Dana and the crew really took every opportunity to indicate that Belos was beyond redemption.
Wow. If I had a nickel for every Disney animated isekai where the protagonist dies, meets a god, and goes super saiyan in the finale, I'd have two nickels! Which isn't a lot, but it's weird it happened twice.
it’s not that weird, honestly. most stories have the whole “brink of death/returns with ultimate power” trope. it’s nearly analogous to the whole “hero’s journey” trope
I just realized when he said try something like that again and things won’t end well for you, and his eyes glow when he’s in that monster form. So if Luz had kept going he would have transformed
Gonna be honest, but I'm a little bit disappointed we never saw more of the kind of attacks Belos used in the first fight. That first battle has Belos using all this weird and creative magic, and makes him out to be incredibly intimidating by just seeming unfazed by any of Luz's attacks while effortlessly throwing all this power and creepy magic around. But the next time we see him fight he just uses red energy blasts and doesn't show any of the really cool and interesting things we saw him do in the first fight.
We dont see more of it because luz knows all thw glyph combos Belos aint a witch He uses glyphs as well So by the end of season 1 belos had the upper hand By the end of season two they were equally matched By the end of season 3 Luz had the upper hand
Tbf, with every fight against Luz Belos slowly becomes more animalistic which makes doing different glyphs more difficult and near impossible. Expecially with the titan himself working against Belos.
I blame the time constraint that the studio imposed on the project. because (without much evidence) i suspect there was supposed to be some significance to belos’ use of technology to augment his magic. but they had to change a lot of things (such as adding the collector) when the show got truncated.
@@mozambiquemorbid2441Yeah, but also I think it was less meant to signify some technological advantage and more just hinting that Belos doesn't actually have any natural magic, it's all an artificial means of utilizing Titan magic.
One of the things I noticed, when Belos was talking about Luz' magical prowess in the second fight. He said she was "decades away" from beating him. The man who studied magic for about 3 ½ "centuries" and was claimed to be the most Powerful Witch on the Boiling Isles(other than Edalyn Clawthorne), stated that she was only "decades away", showing how much of a threat she legitimately became in such a short time span. Luz grew in such a short time span that to most guards and grown adults, she was a legitimate threat. The only people we see on par with her all happen to be prodigies in their respective fields, who were almost on par with a Coven Head, or ahead of them in Gus' case, and Coven Heads. You know, the guys who are stated to be the best, brightest, and most powerful of their field? The only person Luz downright lost to, was Hunter, Terra Snapdragon the Plant Coven Head, and some coven guards when she was emotionally compromised. Luz is a prodigy. She might have been blessed by the Titan, and seen his glyphs, but she was the one who was experimenting, and the one doing multiple school courseloads, when witches usually only took one for life! Luz also semi re-engineered dimensional travel based on partially eaten notes from the 1600s. Sure, she might not have made a successful portal, but she still made a dimensional gateway! It didn't lead to the right location, and it didn't last, but what teenager could actually build something like that out of magical scraps? Even with an immense power source like Titan's blood? She is an absolute unit.
Luz gets stronger each fight. The first time Belos wiped the floor with her; Belos still won round 2 but Luz still got some good hits in; in round 3 she crushed him
i love the call back to the first episode right when she kills belos in the last episode. she says "now eat this sucka" which is what she said when she killed the snack in the first episode
The fact that this 600 year “man” got his plan for genocide ruin by a progressing 14 year old… I don’t know if that’s as pathetic as a Genius doctor of robotics and a giant fire breathing turtle dragon continuously getting their butts kick by a blue alien hedgehog or a Brooklyn-Italian Plumber but it definitely made it on the list of once powerful entities losing to the “Underdogs”.
I can't believe the fandom was upset by the fact that Luz was the one who ended him. Like, HELLO? She's the protagonist, and their adversities were built since the S1 finale. What was Luz supposed to do in the finale? Playing card games while all the others dealt with Belos? That's incredibly stupid. Are fans ok nowadays?
She didn't kill him, she just cut him from his power source. Eda, King and Raine are the ones who ended him by stomping on his gooish remains of a body.
My favorite piece of the final fight to this day is how Luz calls herself “the good witch Luz”. Not Azura, not Luzura, just Luz. She no longer feels like she needs to hide within a persona she admires to be confident in herself. She says who she is and where she came from right to Belos’ face with all the confidence in the world
Belos is a perfect example of humanity at its worst. Hating and trying to destroy what is different or he can't control, self-righteousness and hypocrisy, labeling anyone who disagrees with him as insane, constantly searching for power, and attempting to control others through fear. The Owl House breaks every one of those ideals. The very first episode is about how being different isn't bad. His sanctimony is shown when Luz tells Belos he's barely human anymore, Belos is clearly the insane one between him and Luz, his search for power and fame is called out by the Titan, and Belos' fear factor is continuously reduced until the only thing he has going for him is that he's a big scary monster.
the last battle will never fail to give me chills. to me the best part is Eda's so fking proud smile when Luz says "C'mon Eda, you know where magic comes from" makes me melt
I like the progrestion of Luz's abillities in each fight; In the first one she's terrefied and is trying her best to just survive. Second fight: she's still scared but is more confident in her abilities and she has her friends by her side. Third and last fight: girl got her found family her friends AND THE POWER OF GOD AND ANIME ON HER SIDE litterally look at that fight and tell me shes not having the time of her life here, girly is kicking ass and she KNOWS it, shes almost compeletly unbothered because unlile the previous fights with him she knows she can and will beat Belos this time
If you'll pardon my expression, I love how each L he takes is bigger than the last. Granted, I wouldn't say Luz "beat" him the first two times, but in both cases his plans ended up getting thwarted. Before his death he ended up being bested by a teenage girl three times. What a loser.
If only she kept the Titan form, not even the powers, the design. When she turned back I just felt so disappointed she retained literally nothing from it. Not the horns, the sharp tooth, the tail or the eyes.
@@user-nm1lx8qb3u That's what I said, I dont care about her keeping the power, I care about the appearance. I hate timeskip Luz, if she'd kept a remnant of her titan form maybe she'd have a half decent young adult design
Given that its shown at the end that King's blood also provides ambient magic just with different looking glyphs, its likely that if she got small container of his blood or had him nearby, all she'd have to do is re-draw the glyph designs, then she could utilize all the combos and abilities she knows from before, so she did at least keep SOME of it and would be able to bring it to the human realm if she so choosed.
Biblically accurate Angels are frightening and otherworldly, but in a very different way to Belos. An Angel is a being of light and fire. They guide others and cleanse evil- that’s the idea at least. But Belos? He was never like that, and this was never more clear than at the end, at which point he was like a cancer or a rot, corrupting everything he touched.
When I first watched Owl House and seen him Teleport Behind Luz I thought I was the only one see his Neck crack like that I was like O_O”Bros neck snapped and he’s still alive” I didn’t have words since I felt like the only person who noticed that
"Do not underestimate me Belos. For I am the good witch Luz! Child of the human realm, student of the demon realm, and warrior of peace! NOW EAT THIS SUCKA!" she said calmly.
In this final The Owl House episode the transformed Luz reminds me of Mona the Vampire from a French Canadian Cartoon of the same name. Luz from The Owl House and Mona from the series Mona the Vampire have many similarities in the way their faces are designed. Especially the sharp teeth are one feature both characters have in common. Another common feature is the high self-confidence and self-consciousness of both cartoon characters. There really are many similarities between these two characters. That is something I notice very clearly. Therefore I have to assume that Dana Terrace very likely knows the French Canadian animated series Mona the Vampire very well. Is it really the case? Please inform me!
В первой битве Луз пыталась мансить и использовать все знания чтобы уйти живой от злодея. Второй раз она намеренно прилетела к нему остановил заклинание. Но к Луз пришла помощь, а далее Коля его шлёпнул. Третий раз Луз боролась в лучшей команде. Ведь чудаки должны держаться вместе.
The Season 1, 2 And 3 Basically has Luz Vs Emperor Belos Luz and The Hexside Squad Vs Goop Belos And finally. Luz And The Owl House Trio Vs Dragon Belos
every person who hasnt started the third season is gonna be like: Why does Luz look different, Where is kings collar, amd goodness gracious, what happened to EDA?
Lets not forget Belos was trying not to kill her in the first fight because he knew DAMN WELL she still hadnt gone back in time with Lilith. He had to keep her alive so Belos held back and let Luz basically kick his ass Food for thought
Me gusta como en cada pelea Luz poco a poco logra superar a Belos, en la primera a pesar de no hacer mucho logra darle un pequeño golpe en la mascara, ya en la segunda Luz logra arreglarselas para que Belos pierda gran parte de sus poderes y qyede en una forna ideal para vencerle y ya dieectamente en la pelea final a pesar de que Belos esta poseyendo el cuerpo de practicamente un dios sus poderes son muy mediocres comparados con los de Luz que se ven espectaculares para que al final Luz le demudtre a Belos quien es verdaderamente digno del poder del titan
Something I really appreciate is that Luz didn't give a shit about sparing Belos even during S1, every time she was in an active fight with Belos she would go for killshots, it honestly made her character far more interesting given how nice she usually is.
I love how above Luz Belos is. Sure, Luz is crafty, but Belos has had literal decades to perfect his craft. In the first encounter he barely even moves and only takes the most superficial of damage after slightly underestimating Luz.
„Youre decades away from beating me“ More like seasons „It’s almost like the titan didn’t want me to have that knowledge“ Most likely because he realy didn’t want belos to have that knowledge.
All the scene of then above the clouds has me thinking how did the titan not suffocate if his arm from lying downs already reaching above the clouds him standing should have him in space or near abouts
When I first saw the last fight I was honestly hoping Luz was going to sonic blast through belos as she pulls him out. At least it was fun to think about it
Belos reminds me of Amon from The Legend Of Korra both people loved by everyone both hate and want to get rid of people with powers and have equality both clame to comuntcat with a entity and both of them turn out to be compleat frauds and both of them changed there names and both of them have a brother and both of them have a scar across his face and both of them ware a mask
Bro why is it like an average boss battle 500k/500k first phase of belos, (season 1) 250k/500k second phase of belows (season 2), 1,200,000/1,200,000 final phase of belos (season 3)
“Almost like the Titan did not want me to have that knowledge.”
That hits different after the series finale.

Well, he did come from religious times, after all
Something that I like about the fights with belos is that (unlike how most cartoons would have her beat him without any struggle), Luz never actually did beat belos by herself, and in the second fight with her friends, they still weren't able to beat him because they're all still just kids.
like if it weren’t for the collector they would’ve been killed in the second battle, hell they were even bracing themselves
Yeah hunter was seconds away from becoming separated from flapjack again
And if it weren't for her companions in the third fight, she wouldn't be able to separate him from the heart in time. That's a beautiful message honestly, way better than having her be strong enough in the end to do it all by herself
interesting how you can see Belos go from untouchable god, to powerful human, to disgraceful monster
I still find it cool how in the second fight when Gus shows belos the memory’s of what he did to his brother he gets angry and puts his hands on his head like he’s saying Make it stop! But that means he does in-fact have regret for what he did to his brother.
It's more like he regrets not being able to 'save' Caleb imo.
@@NapaCat I feel like it's a bit of both, more of that one but I do feel like at least he regrets killing him even if it's just a little bit
@@Powered1Buttercup given belos, he regrets killing his bro, but he wouldnt phrase it like that. More like
"My only regret is caleb making me kill him. If only he listened and saw the error of his ways"
Belos likely regrets killing his brother but is unwilling (and by the end of the show, unable) to take accountability for it. Right up until the end, he blamed Caleb, magic, the Isles....everything/one except himself.
That regret is likely behind the parade of Grimwalkers. He wanted his image of his brother back. Belos only connects with the world as it relates to and impacts him, like a very selfish child. He regretted killing Caleb, but I'm not sure he felt genuine remorse for it.
@@lupinforestgreen7614 He probably did, but was also unable to move on from it and just tried to rationalize it by making it everyone else's fault but his own, he never grew up after all this time and only let his negative feelings consume and blind him until the very end, and died never having changed mentality in all those years. Very sad, but well also at this point it's pretty much pointless to try to reason with people like him, extremists who will always think they are right no matter the evidence to the contrary, narrow-minded idiots who will never be able to grow up as people.
Something interesting that I noticed is the parallels between the first and 3rd fight.
In the first fight, Luz used Fire, Ice, and used a staff to fly, in that order.
Exactly like the final fight, where she uses Fire to burn away Belos, Ice to create a platform in front of Belos, and used a staff to fly towards Belos.
We can even go as far as to say that, when she tried a counterattack, Belos tried to stop her, but the attack got destroyed (the huge worm that Luz burned, and the tentacles that Eda, King and Raine destroyed), before finally landing an hit.

"I'll play"
Badass villain line
There was a huge improvement for the music throughout all three battles, and it was absolutely incredible. Watching and Dreaming music is some of the best music I've ever heard
the "weh" scene is genuinely the second time i've EVER gotten emotional over a cartoon, the first time was in hollow mind i think
You know what, I’ll give belos this, he is a determined man. The isles were against him, the titan was against him and he constantly held his own if not defeated the most powerful witches in all of the boiling isles. It took luz, powered up by the titan, one of the most powerful witches eda who also has the powers of the owl beast, Rein one of the strongest covenheads and King a literal titan to finally take him down.
He's a powerfull villain
To be fair, he also was powered up by the titan
@@hugosenet not really, the Titan dont wanna hes know about the glyphs
@@mechamedoquequiser8580 but he took over the titan himself, gaining in power thanks to the later, so both Luz and Belos has titan sourced power
@@hugosenet Oh, youre talking about the final episode,
1st: alone
2nd: her friends
3rd: her family 🥹
4:04 Gravity Falls theme
I like how they call him Belos even after they know his name because Phillip was his human name, and the guy's just about as far from human as you can get.
Luz still dosent want to call him Phillip because of Hallow Mind and her thinking she was so stupid to help him. And I'm pretty sure everyone was used to calling him Belos anyway.
also because belos prefers to be called philip, so they call him belos just to spite him
First, as a magic user, notably far more powerful than anything else in the show up to that point, just barely taken down with a cheap trick.
Second, the beginning of his transformation into his more eldritch goop form, but still remaining humanoid enough.
Third, an eldritch deity of rot and moss, creating a Kaiju and nearly gaining control of the entire Isle’s corpse as his puppet.
Belos is super scary
Bro become what he hated 🤡
Cuz he become a demon even trying to "help" humanity
You mean "save"
If his idea of saving was to destroy his entire home world, then he had a lot of screws loose.
Makes me glad Luz was able to stop Belos before he took full control of the Papa Titan.
Oddly enough, I just realized how much Belos reminds me of Amalthus from Xenoblade 2. He lost someone very important so he set out to “fix” the world, in his efforts he became lost in his own delusions, ultimately fusing with something that holds the world together to try and defeat the protagonists, and was lost in his self-centered story where he was the hero until the very end
Yes Belos is an alegory for some Religious people who used the religion to do bad things justifying their actions with the "God words"
Dude even became a dragon. Dragons are often associated with the devil in Christian mythos. Dana and the crew really took every opportunity to indicate that Belos was beyond redemption.
The fact that it's been two weeks and I still can't watch this without crying
Luz’s battle with Eda and King by her side will never not be adorable
Love how in each fight she used ice glyphs/magic the most
Wow. If I had a nickel for every Disney animated isekai where the protagonist dies, meets a god, and goes super saiyan in the finale, I'd have two nickels! Which isn't a lot, but it's weird it happened twice.
Which other show?
@@420sakura1 Amphibia
it’s not that weird, honestly. most stories have the whole “brink of death/returns with ultimate power” trope. it’s nearly analogous to the whole “hero’s journey” trope
@@mozambiquemorbid2441 It's a copy pasta dude
I never rly thought abt it like that but it’s kinda funny there’s a battle with belos for every season finale lol
I just realized when he said try something like that again and things won’t end well for you, and his eyes glow when he’s in that monster form.
So if Luz had kept going he would have transformed
From just a witches apprentice to a master glyphcaster, and to a Radiant Titan powered witch,Luz's powers are growing each and every season
I like how every time Luz fought Belos, he went from being an all powerful warlock, to a full on demonic monster
The casual “okay” in that first battle
Gonna be honest, but I'm a little bit disappointed we never saw more of the kind of attacks Belos used in the first fight. That first battle has Belos using all this weird and creative magic, and makes him out to be incredibly intimidating by just seeming unfazed by any of Luz's attacks while effortlessly throwing all this power and creepy magic around. But the next time we see him fight he just uses red energy blasts and doesn't show any of the really cool and interesting things we saw him do in the first fight.
We dont see more of it because luz knows all thw glyph combos
Belos aint a witch
He uses glyphs as well
So by the end of season 1 belos had the upper hand
By the end of season two they were equally matched
By the end of season 3
Luz had the upper hand
Tbf, with every fight against Luz Belos slowly becomes more animalistic which makes doing different glyphs more difficult and near impossible. Expecially with the titan himself working against Belos.
I blame the time constraint that the studio imposed on the project. because (without much evidence) i suspect there was supposed to be some significance to belos’ use of technology to augment his magic. but they had to change a lot of things (such as adding the collector) when the show got truncated.
That's the idea. He grew more animalistic so he couldn't.
@@mozambiquemorbid2441Yeah, but also I think it was less meant to signify some technological advantage and more just hinting that Belos doesn't actually have any natural magic, it's all an artificial means of utilizing Titan magic.
One of the things I noticed, when Belos was talking about Luz' magical prowess in the second fight. He said she was "decades away" from beating him. The man who studied magic for about 3 ½ "centuries" and was claimed to be the most Powerful Witch on the Boiling Isles(other than Edalyn Clawthorne), stated that she was only "decades away", showing how much of a threat she legitimately became in such a short time span. Luz grew in such a short time span that to most guards and grown adults, she was a legitimate threat. The only people we see on par with her all happen to be prodigies in their respective fields, who were almost on par with a Coven Head, or ahead of them in Gus' case, and Coven Heads. You know, the guys who are stated to be the best, brightest, and most powerful of their field? The only person Luz downright lost to, was Hunter, Terra Snapdragon the Plant Coven Head, and some coven guards when she was emotionally compromised.
Luz is a prodigy. She might have been blessed by the Titan, and seen his glyphs, but she was the one who was experimenting, and the one doing multiple school courseloads, when witches usually only took one for life! Luz also semi re-engineered dimensional travel based on partially eaten notes from the 1600s. Sure, she might not have made a successful portal, but she still made a dimensional gateway! It didn't lead to the right location, and it didn't last, but what teenager could actually build something like that out of magical scraps? Even with an immense power source like Titan's blood? She is an absolute unit.
Luz gets stronger each fight. The first time Belos wiped the floor with her; Belos still won round 2 but Luz still got some good hits in; in round 3 she crushed him
“Let my friends go, or else!”
“ok”
5:54 My favorite moment in the show. That smile of pride Eda has in her student. It hits deep.
i love the call back to the first episode right when she kills belos in the last episode. she says "now eat this sucka" which is what she said when she killed the snack in the first episode
The fact that this 600 year “man” got his plan for genocide ruin by a progressing 14 year old…
I don’t know if that’s as pathetic as a Genius doctor of robotics and a giant fire breathing turtle dragon continuously getting their butts kick by a blue alien hedgehog or a Brooklyn-Italian Plumber but it definitely made it on the list of once powerful entities losing to the “Underdogs”.
Still better than Bill Cipher (Literal God of creation) getting owned by a Grade school kid and his uncle.
@@420sakura1 2 grade school kids
I can't believe the fandom was upset by the fact that Luz was the one who ended him. Like, HELLO? She's the protagonist, and their adversities were built since the S1 finale. What was Luz supposed to do in the finale? Playing card games while all the others dealt with Belos? That's incredibly stupid. Are fans ok nowadays?
PEOPLE DID THAT????
That's how it should be?
Protagonist beats the villain
Yep. On the subreddit and on Twitter people complained about this. It's incredibly messed up...
@@grayfox4819 Luz didn't even end him officially. Who did they want to kill him?
She didn't kill him, she just cut him from his power source. Eda, King and Raine are the ones who ended him by stomping on his gooish remains of a body.
My favorite piece of the final fight to this day is how Luz calls herself “the good witch Luz”. Not Azura, not Luzura, just Luz. She no longer feels like she needs to hide within a persona she admires to be confident in herself. She says who she is and where she came from right to Belos’ face with all the confidence in the world
Round 1,2 and 3
Am I the only one who noticed that when Luz rips Belos from the titan's heart, the sound for the Ultimate Smash from SSB plays? Just me? okie dokie
Final Smash?
@@JamaicaZ160R1793010A actually i think it was the death sound but yeah i meant final smash
@@AriTheALTernate273 Hm...I will have to check it.
It's a bit more lower-pitched that in SSB, but yeah, it's pretty close.
@@thirdcoinedge nice reference :)
Belos is a perfect example of humanity at its worst. Hating and trying to destroy what is different or he can't control, self-righteousness and hypocrisy, labeling anyone who disagrees with him as insane, constantly searching for power, and attempting to control others through fear. The Owl House breaks every one of those ideals. The very first episode is about how being different isn't bad. His sanctimony is shown when Luz tells Belos he's barely human anymore, Belos is clearly the insane one between him and Luz, his search for power and fame is called out by the Titan, and Belos' fear factor is continuously reduced until the only thing he has going for him is that he's a big scary monster.
the last battle will never fail to give me chills. to me the best part is Eda's so fking proud smile when Luz says "C'mon Eda, you know where magic comes from"
makes me melt
Raine's magic is remarkably similar to kings...
Head of bard coven, likely uses similar spells to King's voice and the Titan.
I wouldn’t call the season 3 one a battle😅 Luz violently pulled him by the rib cage why he couldnt defend himself😂
He did.
I like the progrestion of Luz's abillities in each fight;
In the first one she's terrefied and is trying her best to just survive.
Second fight: she's still scared but is more confident in her abilities and she has her friends by her side.
Third and last fight: girl got her found family her friends AND THE POWER OF GOD AND ANIME ON HER SIDE litterally look at that fight and tell me shes not having the time of her life here, girly is kicking ass and she KNOWS it, shes almost compeletly unbothered because unlile the previous fights with him she knows she can and will beat Belos this time
Titain Bellos reminds me of Calamity Gannon.
God I wish we got to see full titan belos.
I'm glad we didn't tbh 💀
5:47 wait, are there other continents?? That would be a cool plot for another spinoff, exploring those continents but E
The Titan trappers, for exemple, don't live on the boiling isles
E *with added reverb*
I could picture his ghost coming back for revenge.
If you'll pardon my expression, I love how each L he takes is bigger than the last. Granted, I wouldn't say Luz "beat" him the first two times, but in both cases his plans ended up getting thwarted. Before his death he ended up being bested by a teenage girl three times. What a loser.
If only she kept the Titan form, not even the powers, the design. When she turned back I just felt so disappointed she retained literally nothing from it. Not the horns, the sharp tooth, the tail or the eyes.
I dont think she had a choice
@@Shadowpuppets The creators did.
The titan passed on. Even if she kept some of the qualities, she wouldn't have the power.
@@user-nm1lx8qb3u That's what I said, I dont care about her keeping the power, I care about the appearance. I hate timeskip Luz, if she'd kept a remnant of her titan form maybe she'd have a half decent young adult design
Given that its shown at the end that King's blood also provides ambient magic just with different looking glyphs, its likely that if she got small container of his blood or had him nearby, all she'd have to do is re-draw the glyph designs, then she could utilize all the combos and abilities she knows from before, so she did at least keep SOME of it and would be able to bring it to the human realm if she so choosed.
Just the moment when belos turned into a biblically accurate demon ( I would say angel but)
Biblically accurate Angels are frightening and otherworldly, but in a very different way to Belos. An Angel is a being of light and fire. They guide others and cleanse evil- that’s the idea at least.
But Belos? He was never like that, and this was never more clear than at the end, at which point he was like a cancer or a rot, corrupting everything he touched.
True
He just kinda looked like one with so many eyes
When I first watched Owl House and seen him Teleport Behind Luz I thought I was the only one see his Neck crack like that I was like O_O”Bros neck snapped and he’s still alive” I didn’t have words since I felt like the only person who noticed that
7:20 You... cannot... DEFEAT ME!!!
I forgot how terrifying Belos used to be before his face reveal.
"Do not underestimate me Belos. For I am the good witch Luz! Child of the human realm, student of the demon realm, and warrior of peace! NOW EAT THIS SUCKA!" she said calmly.
“calmly”
@@NorCatMeow Dumbledore asked calmly reference.
I know everybody is talking about the parrarels and story and character development but I gotta say the music in the last fight is amazing
3:48 последняя битва так эпична. Музыка, эффекты, ЛУЗ, Любимые герои.. это поражает...
1:45 what kind of perc did belos take
man you should’ve showed the collector nearly killing Belos
Wait how did she use the glyph magic with the staff at 0:04 with out the paper she uses for glyphs
Idk
Palisman have power embedded into them. Magic can be done with a palisman regardless of whether or not you're a witch.
@@B-LightWalker oh yeah I forgot about that
@@josecazarezjr4550for the same reason hunter could only use magic with a palisman before flapjack sacrified himself
In this final The Owl House episode the transformed Luz reminds me of Mona the Vampire from a French Canadian Cartoon of the same name. Luz from The Owl House and Mona from the series Mona the Vampire have many similarities in the way their faces are designed. Especially the sharp teeth are one feature both characters have in common. Another common feature is the high self-confidence and self-consciousness of both cartoon characters. There really are many similarities between these two characters. That is something I notice very clearly. Therefore I have to assume that Dana Terrace very likely knows the French Canadian animated series Mona the Vampire very well. Is it really the case? Please inform me!
Idfk
0:24 I’m pretty sure that’s the same roar as Dialga or Palkia from the Pokémon Darkrai Movie
You are right
В первой битве Луз пыталась мансить и использовать все знания чтобы уйти живой от злодея.
Второй раз она намеренно прилетела к нему остановил заклинание. Но к Луз пришла помощь, а далее Коля его шлёпнул.
Третий раз Луз боролась в лучшей команде. Ведь чудаки должны держаться вместе.
2:25 Dead Space Brute sound moment
And that's not even the only Dead Space reference in the episode, surprisingly...
Belos always underestimate Luz whenever they fight.
because belos doesnt learn from his mistakes
The Season 1, 2 And 3 Basically has
Luz Vs Emperor Belos
Luz and The Hexside Squad Vs Goop Belos
And finally.
Luz And The Owl House Trio Vs Dragon Belos
Imagine String beam gave his life-force and magic to Luz and she retained a fraction of the Titan power on the level of early younger King
every person who hasnt started the third season is gonna be like: Why does Luz look different, Where is kings collar, amd goodness gracious, what happened to EDA?
Lets not forget Belos was trying not to kill her in the first fight because he knew DAMN WELL she still hadnt gone back in time with Lilith. He had to keep her alive so Belos held back and let Luz basically kick his ass
Food for thought
And then after the last battle, Belos tried to trick Luz one last time with his Philip desguise. But we all know how that turned out...
Me gusta como en cada pelea Luz poco a poco logra superar a Belos, en la primera a pesar de no hacer mucho logra darle un pequeño golpe en la mascara, ya en la segunda Luz logra arreglarselas para que Belos pierda gran parte de sus poderes y qyede en una forna ideal para vencerle y ya dieectamente en la pelea final a pesar de que Belos esta poseyendo el cuerpo de practicamente un dios sus poderes son muy mediocres comparados con los de Luz que se ven espectaculares para que al final Luz le demudtre a Belos quien es verdaderamente digno del poder del titan
0:51 eeeeeeee
*megalovania plays*
You know whats funny her name is Luz, luz in Spanish is light and the light gliph was the first one she learned 😂
I only had wish that everyone that helped luz got to fight
Something I really appreciate is that Luz didn't give a shit about sparing Belos even during S1, every time she was in an active fight with Belos she would go for killshots, it honestly made her character far more interesting given how nice she usually is.
Season 1: fights Belos
Season 2: fights Belos
Season 3: fights Belos... with friends.
It is true what they say... its not who wins the most fights its who wins the last one.
Luz: NOW EAT THIS SUCKA
I love how above Luz Belos is. Sure, Luz is crafty, but Belos has had literal decades to perfect his craft.
In the first encounter he barely even moves and only takes the most superficial of damage after slightly underestimating Luz.
SO EPIC🔥🔥
Everything started with a basic light spell and everything ended with a *basic light spell*
They were cooking in the season 3 finale🗣️🗣️🔥
When the animation gets good that how you know shits about to go down
„Youre decades away from beating me“
More like seasons
„It’s almost like the titan didn’t want me to have that knowledge“
Most likely because he realy didn’t want belos to have that knowledge.
The final boss of every season. That's a new one
Why does "Take on me" by AHA fit in so well? It happened to be on the radio while I was watching and it was just so smooth lol.
All the scene of then above the clouds has me thinking how did the titan not suffocate if his arm from lying downs already reaching above the clouds him standing should have him in space or near abouts
I wanna admit that in first season Belos sounded a little other than S2 and S3, and it was a LOT crepier than in future..... like dude...... .
0:10: His neck is broken, HOW DID HE GET IT BACK TO UNBROKEN?!
Palismen
When I first saw the last fight I was honestly hoping Luz was going to sonic blast through belos as she pulls him out. At least it was fun to think about it
Do not under estimate me, Guilder Snake. For I am the Good Witch Azura, Warrior or Peace. *[PAUSE FOR DRAMATIC EFFECT]* NOW EAT THIS, SUCKAA!
Belos reminds me of Amon from The Legend Of Korra both people loved by everyone both hate and want to get rid of people with powers and have equality both clame to comuntcat with a entity and both of them turn out to be compleat frauds and both of them changed there names and both of them have a brother and both of them have a scar across his face and both of them ware a mask
And the winner is the good wicht luz noceda 🎉🥳
Bro why is it like an average boss battle 500k/500k first phase of belos, (season 1) 250k/500k second phase of belows (season 2), 1,200,000/1,200,000 final phase of belos (season 3)
