It's been theorized that Alma listening to Mirabel magically repaired the cracks because it was a moment of healing in their relationship. Unfortunately, it backfired.
My take on this is that Mirabel is the gift of the family. She’s the one keeping the household together, making sure everyone is doing well and is happy
That’s why I think she doesn’t have a special door. She has the gift of the family, which means if she stays in the nursery she can be with the family and not repeat history
Very interesting theory! I’m sure Mirabel did get a gift one way or another, but if there is more Encanto content then we should definitely get an answer. Also, I hope Bruno was treated nothing BUT respect when he was welcomed back in the Encanto.
@@Ultra_3ditz Her gift is the casita and she's the next candleholder or she wiped the magic on her dress or the candle was dying so much that it couldn't give anyone else a gift.
I do like the idea that Mirabel becomes the new keeper of the magic, earning a much more passive 'pseudo-gift' like her Abuela Alma. However, I don't fall in line with the theory that Casita is Pedro. I believe the magic was born in part from his selfless sacrifice, but it's not him. The cracks came from the family strain, coming to a head when Mirabel finally called out the dysfunction.
"Without any superpower she was never gonna be subjected to the same kind of pressure." *She was subjected to be put under a lot more pressure to be perfect and help any way she can and always try her best to prove to abuela that she can help and be like the rest of the family even without a gift. And she was also left all alone, even her father who didn't have a gift was included into the photo. Thus making mirabel always constantly under pressure trying her best to be like the rest of the family.*
Well yea, but that is a different kind of oppression, a abnormal kind. One that allowed her to see more clearly the bigger problems at hand. If she was constantly busy working as the valleys musical therapist under immense pressure to do that well, until she Steven universe futures herself. We would not get very far.
I had joke with my friends that Mirabel’s gift was that she has musical powers and can summon music and make everyone sing as well as being able to look at the camera a freeze time
Her gift is her natural ability to bring her family together. It’s not magic on it’s own but instead funnels and magnifies the source of the miracle to better run the household then her Abuela. With her Abuela, her gift is centered around being the protecter of the family while Mirabel’s is the natural evolution of it. The family was struggling, so a miracle came to it’s aid, just as it probably will for generations to to come. Mirabel protects her family much like her Abuela, just without the high stress and intense desperation she felt due to her trauma. She protects them emotionally, something nobody else with gifts were able to handle. She was perfect for the job, if she had powers then she’d likely be put under that same stress and the house would’ve fell.
The candle or Casita were never the real source of the magic. The candle was a representation of Pedro's love, and Casita was a representation of family. The real reason Casita exists is because of the unconditional bonds of family. The cracks start when the family starts to fall apart, with Bruno feeling the pressure to exile himself. Maribel herself is also the person chosen to save the magic. Maribel wasn't given a gift as a consequence to Abuela driving Bruno away. It was a warning of what would happen if Abuela continued to push people out of whom didn't conform to her high expectations. Maribel was left out of the family photo when Antonio gets his powers, and that was the final straw. Casita shows Maribel that the magic was dying because the family was no longer a family. Casita fully physically crumbles and the magic dies when Maribel confronts Abuela about her love for family being conditional.
Mirabel did actually get a gift, according to close details. You see, everyone's clothes have something to do with their power, Dolores: Soundwaves Isabela: Flowers Julieta: Herbs etc, but Mirabel has butterflies! In the opening cutscene, we see Mirabel sitting near the candle with Abuela, but the candle has a butterfly on it, just like Mirabel's dress! The rest of what I am going to say is very complicated and tricky to understand, but you might get it. You see, part pf the candle and the miracle is inside Mirabel, which is why she didn't get a gift. Casita decided that a source of hope was their only last hope, because hope is the keyword! You may not understand, but Casita hid a bit of the candle in a certain human being, (which is Mirabel,) and they thought this would help the family with the certain gifts such as friendship, trust, protection, family, hope and greatness restored so that this would improve the family and they'd all be imperfectly beautiful yet realise that Abuela is only the co-creator and Mirabel is one of the sources of a magical and miraculous candle. Mirabel's gift is being her, and whenever she lost hope, the Casita broke down. Like when she had her argument with Abuela, she was correct, Abuela was ruining the miracle by making it lose hope and slowly die inside, having a break down like Casita, but the truth is, she made part of the miracle die, so Mirabel already has a gift and doesn't need a silly one to replace her powers. so Mirabel is the child and part of Casita, the miracle, and the candle. When she says she is just as special now, we all know that in reality, she just doesn't realise she is more special than anyone else in the family. Comment if u want more analyzation, for this isn't all I know as for proof.
Woah! That's really interesting! My OC Analiza doesn't believe in the candle because she "doesn't need to have powers to be special." The truth is she was chosen by the stars to find the Moonstone, a jewel that reflects the full moon.
@@suicune_333 I don’t know if your OC is similar/living in the universe of TTS (Tangled the Series) but the Moonstone immediately makes me think of that. Still interesting nonetheless.
@@cutiepie120048 She still doesn't know why she dreams about going to a three-peaked mountain and going into a pitch-black cave and seeing glowing animals because I haven't thought about how she would interpret it. Most of my OCs get revamped often because
My theory is that she’s gonna be he next guardian(leader) of the town and casita cause well when she opened the door the magic returned and the casita only cracked whenever Mirabel was sad /angry like right after she sang waiting on a miracle ( I think) the casita cracked cause she was sad and plus she has a good relationship with the casita
Honestly, I wish the “Oh My God! Our Uncle/Brother/Son is back after 10 YEARS! Let’s just say ‘oops my bad’ and everything will be hunkie dorrie!” was given more time/development. I mean, sure, Bruno TECHNICALLY didn’t leave, but he just forgives them for shunning him for ages to the point where they basically made him Voldemort, looking down on someone for just saying his name, and acted like it was nothing.
I think the candle has a butterfly because the song “Dos Oruguitas” it means “two caterpillars” in Spanish and “aye mariposa” means “oh butterfly” in Spanish
I believe that the magic originally came from Abuela Alma and that the creation of the candle and the miracle was a response to the trauma that she had just endured. Due to the nature of Alma's desires at the time, the need for refuge and a desire for a good life for her children, the miracle became what it was. The desire for a refuge created the mountain wall and a home that doubled as a nanny for her children. The desire for a better life for her children manifested as the gifts. This line of thinking also explains why the encanto broke down when the family was experiencing emotional turmoil. The encanto's main purpose was to keep the family safe and happy but when the family wasn't happy in spite of what the encanto had given them that little paradox caused the encanto to eventually flicker and die.
My theory is that Mirabel not getting a gift was because she felt unloved and isolated from her family when she touched the doorknob. She was later able to listen to the house and communicate with the house because she was the one who learned compassion from being treated so coldly. Encanto is also a story about a scapegoat dealing with the feelings of inadequacy compared to the golden children, and the treatment from a grandmother who has narcissistic traits due to trauma. Mirabel is lucky, because a lot of children who are in a similar situation to her never get that moment of understanding and subsequent reconciliation with their parents. Edit: also, all of the children in the family were living up to the image that the grandmother had for them. That's why Luisa and Isabella are so happy when Mirabel bless them step away from their expected roles. Edit2: Antonio gets a power because when he touches his doorknob, he feels loved, and like a part of the family. Which is everything that Mirabel didn't feel when she touched the door knob.
If we define a "gift" as a magical ability given to a Madrigal child by the miracle candle on their fifth birthday then no Mirabel didn't receive a gift during the movie, even at the end.
She does have a Gift though. Much like her Grandmother who also doesn't have a specific power but DOES have a Door. Mirabell is essentially the new Source of the Magic when it used to be her Grandmother.
It makes sense that pedero would turn into a butterfly at the end since the candle had a butterfly symbol on it. There was also a lot of butterfly symbolisms regarding casitas magic.
I really hope they do a huge timeskip like 70 years into the future when Maribel is 85 for encan-two if they make another one. Maybe instead of a man vs surrounding plot, they could do a man vs man type deal. With someone trying to destroy the magic.
In my headcannon, she has a room but no gift like abuela alma. In the front of the room, near her door, everyone put a little bit of their gift representation on the door like isabella would put some flowers and etc. . It’s both wholesome and cute :)
I think that mirabel got like a gift to protect the casita and stop time like when she stops time to sing that song she was able to make roses. Pretty much her door is the house but her room didn’t go in because the house whould be her room and that whould not make sense I think mirabel whould have a gift where if the casita has something wrong with it she should just have to go to the door place before the house crushes down in encanto 2 (if we get one) if the casita crushes down again she whould be able to make a door and a kit of doorknobs all she needs to do is put that doorknob in in the casita is back. She also has a room where she can access every power of the gifts but if she goes out the room she won’t be able to access them and she can access them by stopping time. Since she’s pretty much the protector of the casita she whould not have to work like the orthers. Here’s how it whould go in encanto 2 they will firstly go back to that time where she opened the house door to save the casita but this time she has a gift and when she opens that gift the reality just shuts the room down but her gift is still there and she only knows about it until the end of encanto 2 when she needs to save the casita and everyone sees her gift
i love this theory it makes sense as Mirabel opens the door restoring the magic essentially the way i see it she is the keeper of the casita as she not only restores the magic and essentially carries pedros magic but notice on her outfit deigns it has a little bit of everything from the other members of the family including butterflies
I feel Mirabel’s gift is to bless the future generation of madrigals with the candle. I feel this because, she and Abuela are the only ones to really be able to talk to casita. Also, who will bless the future children?? With a gift, there isn’t really a point in blessing the children!! What do you think??
1:35 I know I keep popping up with these Wander Over Yonder references, but I appreciate them. Also, I thought Antonio’s gift was the father’s way of giving Mirabel and Bruno someone else who could help them.
I think she has the gift: Of Time Stopping In the song: Waiting On A Miracle She was viewing photos of her family, WHICH IS EITHER TIME STOPPING OR THE GIFT OF VIEWING PHOTOS-
Wait… how long did it take for Pedro to will leave the candle, be hatched from an egg, be a caterpillar, be in a chrysalis, and then emerge as a butterfly. Did it take like 2 days!?
I think she’s really connected to the house she’s like usually talking to the house and usually she is moving it basically also it seems like the house is a big connection with her
The creator said that the casita has one bathroom and that Mirabel wiping her hands isn’t the reason why she wasn’t given a gift. Also Mirabel is extraordinary even without a gift. Why do people care if she actually has one or not?
My theory is that she controls the house and restores the magic. If you see in the movie, she is the only one who controls the house in whole intire movie. And she the only one who is capable of restoring the magic. Which means she can turn off the magic whenever she wants to.
So I have a theory that Mirabel technically did get a gift, it just didnt work out visibly. I think that she got the gift of time manipulation and the House just couldn't figure out how to display it in the form of a room, so it just didnt create a room. In the movie there's multiple instances where she's stopping/slowing down time and just manipulating time, so it honestly checks out to me
Nah, that was meant to be a non-diegetic moment to express certain emotions visually like a lot of the musical sequences in the story. To think otherwise would mean you'd also have to believe things like Luisa literally fought Cerberus and flew around through the clouds on a donkey unicorn as well. Instead of understanding these moments are more like a fantasy sequence to represent the emotions.
Okay can I just say that once the Encanto actually became a thing Dolores was like the first person to leave(we’ll go out) because in th3 song The Family Madrigal she was like on the mountain looking like she just climbed up that might be in mah head but. Also I really like these videos
The thing is that mirabel’s gift is the whole house because Mirabel is the only one that uses the casita and she didn’t notice I just read this off the internet for credit
what if mirabel gift is to slow time.. you can see that everyone freezes in waiting on a miracle song. you might think its just in her mind but if it was in her mind she would have tp back in the room like how abuela tp back next to mirabel after telling her story.. but she didnt tp back she ran back to the room to tell everyone that there were cracks. and plus she also got cut by the tiles
I think in this szenario pedro waiting for an innocent openminded character who have the ability to find out the issues of the family. Camilo would be a candidate too, but he gets the shape-shifting, because of his own issue finding out, who he is, but Mirabel have the view for the casita and gave the attention to Pedro's spirit you see when she is greeting the painting of him
i think mirabel will receive abuelas gift after abuela passes. after all mirabel is the only one who could make or break the family. so i think mirabel will most likely get the candle gift
Okay the whole Mirabel wiping her hands on her dress theory made me cackle because I watched Encanto with one of my friends and the whole time of watching the movie we made jokes and just laughed at it all. I noticed the fact that Mirabel wiped her hands on her dress and we laughed when Antonio got his gift like "No No don't wipe your hands, Antonio, don't do it" but I never knew we weren't the only ones to notice that or even take it as an actual theory and that's gonna come back to me mid day and never cease to make me laugh lol
I Think Since Mirabel Interacts With The House More And Her Door Emerged With The Walls That She Can Control The House And The Cracks Thats Why When She Huggs Isabella The Cracks Heal, Along With Her Feelings
What he was talking about up to 3:14 was actually an eye-opener for me. I never realized how their gifts were all meant for healing in any tense- also the jokes were killing me 💀
I have this theory that every 50 years or so, the magic will choose a future child to not have magic just like mirabel to keep the family works nicely for generations also as the new candle owner(we dont know if the candle is fixed tho at the end), but then again theres some problem with this theory
Something against the "Pedro=magic theory" thing. I think the magic comes from the family and their needs. The magic came in a moments Alma had filled with grief for someone she loved, and concern for her children. Now that they are safe, Casita runs on their love and bonding. Also, the fact that Casita responds to "Casita" is proof.
Speculation but I think Bruno could fix the cracks so quickly if his Gift extends to general sand manipulation, and perhaps any crack debris could count as sand grains? That's why he can have a room full of sand, but specifically will need to set up basically a magic circle of sand with candles of incense just to see into the future.
my idea is since she wiped her hands on her dress the magic from the candle failed to manifest into a gift so now she can temporarily have any gift that no one currently posses. I'm thinking up to ten minutes with a five minute cooldown no matter how long this ability is active
If Mirabel had a gift I think it would be teleportation or to draw things to life for example: if Mirabel draws a ball of yarn then she will colour it and when she is done the picture will pop out the paper and she has infant papers.
Pedro being the source of the miracle is a popular theory... but this movie is based on "magical realism" and the according to magical realism the source of is more likely to be the grandmother, her pain, and in particular her fear, both so strong that manifested into never actually explained magic. Magical realism is very much link to tragedy and sadness.
Yes yes, but have you ever wondered how Bruno just somehow broke a concrete wall with a bucket? Like wouldn't his head and the bucket be crushed? Or wouldn't he at least be hurt or have a concussion? And also, 12:31 about that.... Butterflies only live up to 29 days...
Mirabel DOES have a Gift, even though she doesn’t have the proof of a magic door to back it up. You can clearly see her Gift in action during all of the musical numbers she witnesses, where she can actualY SEE and EXPERIENCE what it is her family is singing about in full detail. Look at how FREAKED OUT she looks during at every single musical number, like in Luisa’s song, or during the Bruno song where she was physically affected by the ‘hurricane winds’ parts as if she had been at Pepa and Felix’s wedding in person even though it had happened way before she was born. Then look at the song involving her grandparents. Mirabel was definitely STARING and looking at EVERYTHING that was happening around her as she witnessed what really happened to grandpa all those years ago, as if she had been there to see it in person, just like in the wedding scene, even though it happened over 5 decades before her birth.
It's been theorized that Alma listening to Mirabel magically repaired the cracks because it was a moment of healing in their relationship. Unfortunately, it backfired.
My take on this is that Mirabel is the gift of the family. She’s the one keeping the household together, making sure everyone is doing well and is happy
@@abigel_____3449 your just a robot

She was viewing photos of her family, WHICH IS EITHER TIME STOPPING OR THE GIFT OF VIEWING PHOTOS-
Wait… how long did it take for Pedro to will leave the candle, be hatched from an egg, be a caterpillar, be in a chrysalis, and then emerge as a butterfly. Did it take like 2 days!?
I think she’s really connected to the house she’s like usually talking to the house and usually she is moving it basically also it seems like the house is a big connection with her
The creator said that the casita has one bathroom and that Mirabel wiping her hands isn’t the reason why she wasn’t given a gift. Also Mirabel is extraordinary even without a gift. Why do people care if she actually has one or not?
I believe Mirabel's gift was being the center.
Holding La Familia Madrigal close together.
My theory is that she controls the house and restores the magic. If you see in the movie, she is the only one who controls the house in whole intire movie. And she the only one who is capable of restoring the magic. Which means she can turn off the magic whenever she wants to.
Abuela can control the house aswell
0:31 The message says come back in a few weeks when that’s an actual video xd don’t know why I needed to find that out :)
I like to imagine that Pedro’s spirit is there watching his sons rat shows.
This is one of those questions that'll be debated for years 😅
0:57 e N c A n T o
So I have a theory that Mirabel technically did get a gift, it just didnt work out visibly. I think that she got the gift of time manipulation and the House just couldn't figure out how to display it in the form of a room, so it just didnt create a room. In the movie there's multiple instances where she's stopping/slowing down time and just manipulating time, so it honestly checks out to me
Nah that's probably just movie logic like when things go slow for the main character
Nah, that was meant to be a non-diegetic moment to express certain emotions visually like a lot of the musical sequences in the story. To think otherwise would mean you'd also have to believe things like Luisa literally fought Cerberus and flew around through the clouds on a donkey unicorn as well. Instead of understanding these moments are more like a fantasy sequence to represent the emotions.
@@sardonicus1739 alright then
Yeah I thought that too I thought that it’s because she wiped her hands before she touched it or knob
Okay can I just say that once the Encanto actually became a thing Dolores was like the first person to leave(we’ll go out) because in th3 song The Family Madrigal she was like on the mountain looking like she just climbed up that might be in mah head but. Also I really like these videos
To help her family and you don't need a gift for that
I think her gift is being a hero.
The thing is that mirabel’s gift is the whole house because Mirabel is the only one that uses the casita and she didn’t notice
I just read this off the internet for credit
what if mirabel gift is to slow time.. you can see that everyone freezes in waiting on a miracle song.
you might think its just in her mind but if it was in her mind she would have tp back in the room like how abuela tp back next to mirabel after telling her story.. but she didnt tp back she ran back to the room to tell everyone that there were cracks. and plus she also got cut by the tiles
12:21
Pedro: what a nice day As a butterfly!
Bird: I’m about to ruin this whole mans career
She…she slowed down time just from singing a song…SHE SLOWED DOWN TIME JUST FROM SINGING A SO-
I can finally talk about Bruno!! ❤️ 😭
I just came here for the narration. Beautifully done.
That intro though LOL
Wiping her hands on her dress wouldn’t be linked to her not getting a gift. Judging by the entire movie… it wouldn’t be something that simple
Finally thankyou!
Yeah no the theory is fucking stupid and I’m amazed people still tout it as fact lmao
Why are there so many stairs in Bruno’s room🗓🗓🗓🗓🗓🗓🗓🗓🗓🗓🗓🗓📜📜📜📜📜📜📜📜📜📜📜📜📜📫
Can we get an around of applause for this guy? This was a master piece
Encanto’s ending when they rebuild the house kinda reminds me of the Adamms family movie after they rebuild their house
I think in this szenario pedro waiting for an innocent openminded character who have the ability to find out the issues of the family. Camilo would be a candidate too, but he gets the shape-shifting, because of his own issue finding out, who he is, but Mirabel have the view for the casita and gave the attention to Pedro's spirit you see when she is greeting the painting of him
Ya know how the candle is magical? She’s the only one who wiped the wax after holding it before she opened the door
Oh it’s already in here
i think mirabel will receive abuelas gift after abuela passes. after all mirabel is the only one who could make or break the family. so i think mirabel will most likely get the candle gift
OH MY GOSH!!!!! ANTONIO ALSO WIPES HIS HANDS ON HIS 👕😡
I think she would have a gift to see emotions of everyone like how Delores can hear from far away I like how this vid portrays it
Remember, at the end of the animated film, Bruno says, "You're the real gift, kid."
Pedro is a real Giga Chad for holding in those emotions for so long, KUDOS LOLO!
mirabel didn't get a gift because she wears glasses i mean think anout it no other person that has a gift /got a gift wears galsses .-.
Okay the whole Mirabel wiping her hands on her dress theory made me cackle because I watched Encanto with one of my friends and the whole time of watching the movie we made jokes and just laughed at it all. I noticed the fact that Mirabel wiped her hands on her dress and we laughed when Antonio got his gift like "No No don't wipe your hands, Antonio, don't do it" but I never knew we weren't the only ones to notice that or even take it as an actual theory and that's gonna come back to me mid day and never cease to make me laugh lol
That roast at the beginning was gold
congratulations I'm literally crying
Why is the enter to bruno room like something that rain's sand for time
6:57 Im so sorry i laughed so damn hard at the idea of a camel just breaking in half
I Think Since Mirabel Interacts With The House More And Her Door Emerged With The Walls That She Can Control The House And The Cracks Thats Why When She Huggs Isabella The Cracks Heal, Along With Her Feelings
“You better have a drink or something”
Me, who has an entire feast dedicated to the video: is this good enough?
yeah this is my exact feelings on the film. like, EXACT. there's no way that pedro hasn't been there the whole time.
i think mirabel has the power of teleportian or pause time becuse of the songs she uses both of theese power in a bunch of songs
12:30 "ups" that is definitely an Owl House humor joke
What he was talking about up to 3:14 was actually an eye-opener for me. I never realized how their gifts were all meant for healing in any tense- also the jokes were killing me 💀
What I want to know, if Mirable finally got a room! Her door was the front door, is she still going to stay in the nursery??
Nice Burn in the beginning Finn. Teehee
I have this theory that every 50 years or so, the magic will choose a future child to not have magic just like mirabel to keep the family works nicely for generations also as the new candle owner(we dont know if the candle is fixed tho at the end), but then again theres some problem with this theory
damn, ever since encanto came out everybody has been SPEAKING FACTS about this
Something against the "Pedro=magic theory" thing. I think the magic comes from the family and their needs. The magic came in a moments Alma had filled with grief for someone she loved, and concern for her children. Now that they are safe, Casita runs on their love and bonding. Also, the fact that Casita responds to "Casita" is proof.
Speculation but I think Bruno could fix the cracks so quickly if his Gift extends to general sand manipulation, and perhaps any crack debris could count as sand grains? That's why he can have a room full of sand, but specifically will need to set up basically a magic circle of sand with candles of incense just to see into the future.
I'm pretty sure Mirable will be the new caretaker for the next generation for the Magricals.
my idea is since she wiped her hands on her dress the magic from the candle failed to manifest into a gift so now she can temporarily have any gift that no one currently posses. I'm thinking up to ten minutes with a five minute cooldown no matter how long this ability is active
At the end she has her gift
I’m probably sure Mirabel had a gift before she was the magic keeper because she had slowed down time a lot when she was excluded from the photo
If Mirabel had a gift I think it would be teleportation or to draw things to life for example: if Mirabel draws a ball of yarn then she will colour it and when she is done the picture will pop out the paper and she has infant papers.
I thought Isabella would like Mirabel from the song
It's one of those things that we may never know.
The creators will most likely take the secrets to their grave.
Like that Toy Story guy.
Pedro being the source of the miracle is a popular theory... but this movie is based on "magical realism" and the according to magical realism the source of is more likely to be the grandmother, her pain, and in particular her fear, both so strong that manifested into never actually explained magic. Magical realism is very much link to tragedy and sadness.
When I first watched encanto when mirabel sings and everyone stopped moving I thought she could stop time
So Bruno had been taking care of his ailing Papa all that time he was living in the walls & repairing the cracks.
She wiped her hands on HERSELF. Maybe thats why she becomes the next candle holder or the "miracle"
"well you have no portion control" had me wheezing ngl
Yes yes, but have you ever wondered how Bruno just somehow broke a concrete wall with a bucket? Like wouldn't his head and the bucket be crushed? Or wouldn't he at least be hurt or have a concussion? And also, 12:31 about that.... Butterflies only live up to 29 days...
Mirabel DOES have a Gift, even though she doesn’t have the proof of a magic door to back it up. You can clearly see her Gift in action during all of the musical numbers she witnesses, where she can actualY SEE and EXPERIENCE what it is her family is singing about in full detail. Look at how FREAKED OUT she looks during at every single musical number, like in Luisa’s song, or during the Bruno song where she was physically affected by the ‘hurricane winds’ parts as if she had been at Pepa and Felix’s wedding in person even though it had happened way before she was born.
Then look at the song involving her grandparents. Mirabel was definitely STARING and looking at EVERYTHING that was happening around her as she witnessed what really happened to grandpa all those years ago, as if she had been there to see it in person, just like in the wedding scene, even though it happened over 5 decades before her birth.
Fun fact:Mirable is the next abuela and when you look at the candle it has a butterfly just like Mirable dress and she is connected to it that’s all!
Her gift is that she loves her family
Yes
I also thought that the first reason she didn't get a gift was wiping off the candle magic before opening her door
