10 beers were finished while watching this trilogy. Thank you kind sir,

Oh, come on, #23 and the Hork-Bajir Chronicles are chopped liver?

[AnimorphOfCrystal]

To be honest, Rachel was is in an Owl Morph when David attacked her, and David does know that Rachel also Morphed the Bald Eagle. If Rachel had two Bird Of Prey Morphs being shown to David, then surely David would realize that the Animorphs had ignored the "Animorph Law" themselves, and that there was a possibility another member of the group had a Red-Tailed Hawk Morph. What would you say to that poparena, are the Animorphs hypocrites?

"power rangers without the happy endings", that pretty much sums up these books.

Marco on the other hand is quite cynical, as such I think he unconciously realizes the potential for disaster that could come from the David situation, which leads to his animosity towords David. That combined with the fact that he himself realizes that on the surface there is no real reason for him to dislike him causes Marco's confusion about his own feelings.

Cassie being an idealist, looks for the good in people. As such during the David situation she sees the potential good that can come out of the situation, not really noticing the potential for disaster. Later when David goes full Wacko obviously the rose-colored glasses come off, and she can get serious. To be continued.

One thing I would like to point out about the Marco-David realtionship. When I first read book 20. I felt the same thing as you. That Marco's animosity toward David seemed kinda weird. After reading the WHOLE trilogy on the other hand I got another feel for it. Throughout the series Cassie is constantly refered to as the one who understands people, which makes sense given her personality. But when you stop to think about it Cassie and Marco BOTH understand people just in DIFFERENT ways. TBC...

Another Power Rangers comparision is that Rachel's pre-war hobbies of gymnastics, shopping and fashion are a ripoff of Kimberly's from Power Rangers.

I don't wanna spam all your vids with disagreeing comments. I agree wholeheartedly with your analysis of the Animorphs' wishy-washy morality. It's annoying, but an accurate representation of humans in general, especially teenagers.

BUT!

David was evil from the start. From the beginning he was self-centered, self-righteous, and greedy, wanting to use his powers to make HIS life better. His focus was on himself, not the planet. David was always the anti-Animorph.
