Disenchantment Part 2: 10 Best Moments
10. Oona The Pirate
Oona felt very boxed in during Disenchantment Part One. She seemed to be a little bit of a Melania Trump parody, seen but not heard. Her angular face, love for her son but distaste for her husband and a mutual sense of distrust towards the townsfolk all fed into this.
However, there was also her evil step mother angle and feud with the resurrected Dagmar, which didn’t seem to fit into the parody at all. At times, they barely fit into the plot either. It's probably not fair to call Oona a complete misfire in Part One, but she was certainly found wanting.
Having been exiled at the end of Part One, the shackles of her tropes were immediately cast aside. She was no longer a character in relation to Zog nor Bean, but an entity unto herself. Having her become a pirate queen was a wildcard of a character development, but it worked perfectly.
It fit in with what we already knew about her: she's reckless, confident and knows how to give orders. However, it developed her so much more as we saw her thrive by embracing those around her, rather than shunning and being shunned. A shame we didn't get more.
