Synopsis

The series is set in the mystical world of Gemina and in its capitol called

animal-themed bracers of mystical power to form the Codex
. This will grant them their full strength and abilities necessary to save their world from Dreadbane, who seeks to release Necrafa, the leader of the Spectral Hand and Queen of the Undead. When Necrafa is freed she betrays Dreadbane and throws him into where she was banished by Imani Firewing, the original Mysticon Dragon Mage, a millennium ago.

The second generation of Mysticons encounter various allies and adversaries,

fraternal twin sister, a prophecy foretelling inevitable annihilation, and the blue-green birth gem of a top-level Astromancer, by the name of Proxima Starfall, who is ultimately revealed to have been nothing but a scapegoat
and proxy for the sarcastic and feisty Zarya Moonwolf the second Mysticon Ranger.

When the twin stars unite
The spectral beast will take flight
Its roars will heard a new dark age
And the realm will be
Purged by the dragon's rage

Additionally, Princess Arkayna and her twin obtain two rings which transform them into the "Twin Dragon," allowing them to destroy the Spectral Dragon and the Queen of the Undead in one fell swoop, leaving nothing but half of her evil ancient mask behind.

In the show's second and final season, the Mysticons are enjoying their lives, but are pulled back into their heroic duties to destroy the remaining half of Queen Necrafa's evil mask, which is later worn by one of their former friends who was thought to be Princess Arkayna Goodfey's long-lost twin, sister who becomes their adversary as a result of the fact that she was nothing but a decoy (proxy) for Zarya Moonwolf. As such, she feels deeply betrayed by Princess Arkayna for obliviously abandoning her for Zarya, becomes the new leader of the Spectral Hand with the reluctant help of powerful mages known as Astromancers whom she turns into her mindless minions "Spectromancers" and manages to create the Dark Codex by snatching the powerless Dragon Disk and corrupting it fully. To aid her in getting her revenge on the Mysticons for ruining her life, especially Princess Arkayna, she creates the Vexicons who are a bit more powerful than the Mysticons.

Upon realizing the stronger evil hold the Mask fragment has on her, Proxima tends to toss it into the Rift of Ruin. However, the Mask attaches itself to her face and takes full possession of her mind and body, stating that it has been reborn for one purpose- To destroy the realm of Gemina! The Mysticons go into her mind, with help from Tazma, to find a spell that can release Proxima from the Mask's full-blown influence. Princess Arkayna then realizes just how terrible a sister she was towards Proxima, that her not being there for her when she needed her most was the very motivation for Proxima's current actions. Once Proxima is free, Princess Arkayna saves her twin sister figure from being killed by Mallory's ice blast. Mallory and her fellow Vexicons leave, and Mallory dons the remaining half of the Mask.

At the Island, the Vexicons prepare for the emergence of the Spectral Hand itself, so they can all get a taste of its evil mojo and dominate all of Gemina. Meanwhile, Proxima explains the origins of the Spectral Hand and how Queen Necrafa came to be as well as Dreadbane. Proxima undoes the dark spell she herself had cast on the Astromancers, giving her and the Mysticons an advantage against the Vexicons. Everyone flees to regroup in Emerald's home. Nova Terron mentions magical lances that could enhance the Mysticons' bracers attack power enough to eradicate the Spectral Hand for good, but that the plans to create them are in Queen Goodfey's necklace. As Dreadbane refuses to reverse the curse on the King and Queen, the Mysticons head to the palace to get the bone statues themselves but are caught by Mallory. The petrified forms of Princess Arkayna and Zarya's mother and stepfather are saved from destruction by none other than Dreadbane. In a skirmish, General Bane is fatally hurt but manages to use the last of his strength to revive the Queen and King.

Princess Arkayna happily hugs her mother, who she then introduces to Zarya Moonwolf whom addresses the Queen as "Mom." Having given the plans (off-screen), the Mysticons create their own mystical Lance of Justice in the Forge Room of the dwarfs. Queen Goodfey accompanies the Mysticons on their ultimate quest to defeat the Vexicons and obliterate the Spectral Hand, riding with Zarya on Archer; much to Princess Arkayna's annoyance and envy. However, the Spectral Hand suddenly changes and releases itself from the ancient pillar of ruins that had imprisoned it. Zarya suddenly realizes that the Spectral Hand may be vulnerable to the Dragons of Light. Returning to Dragonhenge, the Mysticons and Queen Goodfey meet up with Stormy and King Valmuk who tells the Mysticons that the only way that his ever-growing kind can help is to reach full adulthood by going into the Ever Realm, as time flows faster there. Reaching the Valley of Shooting Stars, they are caught by the Vexicons. Eartha is conflicted about crushing the dragon eggs and has a full change of heart. She humiliates Mallory by destroying her ice-white hair, giving the dragon eggs time to grow. With their dragon mounts, the Mysticons utilize their bracers to obliterate the Spectral Hand from existence and release those it trapped.

With Planet Gemina finally at peace, life returns to normal in Drake City and the rest of the realm. Emerald has Eartha living with her at Ruddix Hollow, King Darius and Queen Goodfey resume their royal duties and have the Vexicons imprisoned, Nova Terron steps down as topmost star master of the Astromancer Academy to be with his longtime starmate/girlfriend Geraldine and gives the honor to Proxima Starfall as compensation for having an unintentional hand in ruining the orphan mage's life, presenting her with the powerless Codex and untainted gold Dragon Disk. Riding their dragon mounts, the Mysticon "sisters" continue their duties to bring peace, love and justice to the realm.

Production

In June 2015, it was reported that

Disney's Lucky Duck and Hotel Transylvania.[15] In addition, Sean Jara would be the show's creator, writer, and executive story editor.[16] The show was later promoted as a "genre-defining action series" before its release.[17]

Themes

The show is female-centered, as opposed to "many male-centered series" for younger viewers while focusing on magic, superpowers, and the classic good vs. evil dichotomy.[18][19] As such, the series has elves primarily in the form of 110-year-old protagonist Piper Willowbrook, whose elvish name is Pyperia Ashryn Elvaniski, but also in the case of Hortensia Q. Sparklebottom, and princesses like Princess Arkana Goodfey and Zarya Moonwolf, who are both protagonists who were separated at birth. Furthermore, the series has a focus on the undead For instance, villain and undead sorceress, Queen Necrafa, is a lich,[20] which is a type of undead creature. Her power is suggested to originate from the spectral hand, a reign of evil that started from a witch seeking district powers. Due to the focus on magic and fantasy, the series has been compared to the upcoming Crunchyroll Original, High Guardian Spice by some critics.[21] The series was promoted by Nelvana as focusing on "girls’ strength, power, and courage"[22] while other reviewers said it promotes "strong, confident, smart and funny girls."[19] One reviewer described the first graphic novel offshoot based on the series as a "contemporary urban fantasy"[10] which can also apply to the animated series.

LGBT representation

LGBT children's television programming § LGBT representation on Nickelodeon

In October 2017, it was reported that a kiss between two female characters, Zarya Moonwolf and Kitty Boon, on the show was in danger of being cut.[23] Despite this, the show showed the "development of a female-female romance," between Zarya, a protagonist, and her childhood friend, Kitty, known as "MoonBoon," culminating in romantic moments.[24] In August 2018, the show's creator, Sean Jara, confirmed the two as a couple, noting that only one version of the episode was created and that the show's creative team fought for a kiss, but lost even though they managed "to keep the integrity of the love story." Jara also said there is a "beautiful love story" between Zarya and Kitty in the show, referring to the interactions between the two characters in episode 37 ("The Princess and the Pirate"), stated the importance of showing "love between LGBTQ characters on TV," and said that the kiss was cut from the episode because of "systemic homophobia" in the kids television industry, crediting Rebecca Sugar for making strides.[25] He opined on the continual battle for more LGBTQ representation, cited an Entertainment Weekly article about LGBTQ representation in cartoons,[c] and praised the battles for more representation which go on behind the scenes. He said this saying that Nick did not pick up the show for more than 40 episodes[26] and, once again, confirmed Kitty and Zarya as a lesbian couple.[27] In September, Jara said that they treated the relationship between Kitty and Zarya "like all the other relationships in the show." He added that while he was nervous and aware of possible roadblocks, Matt Ferguson, the show's director, supported it, as did his writing team. Ferguson argued that pushback came from not from people who were "evil" but rather from those who were "trying to do the best job at their particular job."[28]

In March 2018, the show was nominated for various awards at the 6th Canadian Screen Awards. This included one for Matt Ferguson, who directed the episode "Scourge of the Seven Skies" and another for Sean Jara, who wrote the episode "Sisters in Arms."[42] While Ferguson did not get an award, Jara won an award for his writing on the aforementioned episode.[43] The following year, another episode Jara wrote, "The Princess and the Pirate," was nominated for an award as the 7th Canadian Screen Awards.[44] The same year, Ana Sani was nominated for the "Outstanding Performance – Female Voice" ACTRA Award for her role in the episode "The Edge of Two Morrows."[45][46] Also that year, Elize Morgan, a writer who worked on Mysticons, would be a juror for the Toronto Animation Arts Festival International.[47] Apart from Morgan, Jocelyn Geddie, Steph Kaliner, and Corey Liu were writers on the show.[48][49]

Character design

Some stated that some characters may be inspired by past animations, like She-Ra: Princess of Power, with Dreadbane looking like Hordak and Choko looking like Kowl.[50] Others stated that the series tapped into the "magical girl revival."[51]

Music

In March 2018 the show was nominated for three awards at the 6th Canadian Screen Awards. One of these was for Christian Szczesniak's music in the episode "The Coronation."[42] In November of the 2018 it was reported that singer Dulce Lopez sang the Spanish language version of the Mysticons theme song.[52] In January 2020, the Canadian pop supergroup Girl Pow-R was handpicked to re-create, and sing, the show's theme song.[53][54]

Reception

Melissa Camacho of Common Sense Media praised the series as fun, but warned parents that there is "lots of fantasy violence" and some "dark images" which might "scare younger kids," but that it contains "magical creature companions," trainer, and dark forces that young fans of anime are drawn toward.[18] She also stated that the series is not educational, but offers an "entertaining alternative to the many male-centered series" produced for those of this age group. In contrast, The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction contributor Steven Pearce gave a positive review, stating that the three story arcs of the series centers on a different villain, and stated that even though the series is set in a futuristic city, "noir tendencies of urban fantasy are avoided" with cultural influence of Earth still present, even as there are sci-fi elements. Pearce also pointed out that the show is "more action-orientated" than most shows which target young girls, stated that while the animation budget wasn't big, it was "used imaginatively" and says that while the story is fast-moving, it gains strength as it moved along, resulting in a "fun, exciting series."[87]
