Hello! Thanks for bothering to click on my artikel : ) I’ve been on the spot for a couple of months now and I think it’s time that I write an article. I’ve only every written one artikel before this, so forgive me if it’s not that good. I hope that u enjoy it. I just have to say that I like each of the princesses, and I’ve written why I like and dislike each of them. This is my opinion so please respect it, I don’t really like getting rude of nasty antwoorden (I end up crying so please don’t drive me to that) but constructive criticism is most definitely welcome and your very free to commentaar on your opinion (just do it nicely please).

10. Ariel - The Little Mermaid
Ariel. Is a character that I have very mixed feelings about. Sometimes, I like her, sometimes I don’t, other times I don’t know what to think of her. But I’ve never been a ‘fan’ of hers.
Why I like her: She’s fun. Her determination is good to see, and when she ends up with her happy ending I don’t know about u but I always feel happy. I love her relationship with bot – it’s really cute. She’s beautiful and has a beautiful voice actress (<3 Jodi Benson). My favourite scene with her would be exploring the kingdom, she’s so cute and naïve and having so much fun, it’s adorable. Plus she’s a mermaid – which automatically makes u amazing.
Why I don’t really like her: I don’t like her actions. Her impulsiveness has me groaning whenever I watch her. ‘Why did u do that Ariel, don't u realise the consequences?’ I don’t like her disrespect for authority. And she doesn’t learn anything – she has an adventure, gets through obstacles and learns… nothing, no real consequence for her thoughtless actions. But it’s mainly her actions, not her personality I don’t like. And I believe those two factors go together to make a character.


9. Pocahontas - Pocahontas
Pocahontas. I like Poca. Sometimes in her films (eg. The Cliff Scene, of whenever she sings) I love her. Most of the time I just like her though.
Why I Like Her: she’s awesome. She jumps off a cliff – gracefully. She’s mature, but playful. She’s adventurous, stands up for herself, saves her people, stops a war, SINGS LIKE NOTHING I’VE EVER HEARD. She’s fun, in touch with nature and cares about the people around her. Awesome.
Why I don’t like her as much: she can be boring sometimes. Mainly when she’s talking to John Smith. She’s also not very smart. Very wise – but no real common sense. She also procrastinates, like with telling her father about John and stuff, that kind of annoyed me. But I still like her.


8. Belle - Beauty and the Beast
Belle. Another mixed feeling character, sometimes I love her, other times not so much.
Why I like her: I love her at the start of her movie. Feeling different in her town, not fitting in – very relatable. I love her relationship with her father, and Belle Reprise is amazing. The way that she sacrifices her freedom for her father is such an incredible scene. I like how she learns to love the beast, and accept him, but does not let him push her around. She may be his prisoner, but she’s still a person and will fight. AND READING. SHE LOVES READING <3
Why I don’t like her as much: sometimes I do feel like she thinks she’s better than the other townspeople. And I don’t like how she humiliates Gaston – she could have just zei no (sorry I like Gaston as a villain). I do NOT think she is a Mary-sue, but she does get a little dull in the seconde half of the movie.


7. jasmijn - Aladdin
Jasmine. My favourite heroine as a kid. Why is she so low now? I see her a little differently. I still like her A LOT though.
Why I like her: her sense of humour always makes me laugh. She’s tough, and witty, and brave, and sassy. jasmijn stands up for herself, doesn’t judge a book door it’s cover, is forgiving (of Aladdin), smart, fun, beautiful (with her hair…. and her eyes…..). She was so different from all the other Disney heroines at the time, I guess that’s why I loved her so much. I love how she wants to marry for love and is a little rebellious.
Why I don’t like her as much: she doesn’t know what she has. People in her kingdom are starving and living in poverty – and even after she has seen this – does nothing about it. She just complains about being a princess. Yes, she did have some reasons to complain but she did abandon her duties.


6. Aurora - Sleeping Beauty
Aurora. We have reached the princesses that I love whole heartedly. I love Aurora. Ironically, I did not grow up with her (I barely saw Sleeping Beauty as a kid) and when I did watch it a few years a go I got bored. I became an Aurora-not-liker (I didn’t hate her, but I disliked her). THEN I bought Sleeping Beauty on video and loved it – and her. I began reading artikels and opinions that supported Aurora, and agreed with them. So, even though she’s only in sixth – I love her.
Why I love her: she's a breath of fresh air. She's sweet, gentle, loving, dreamy, romantic. I love how she's shy, and a little naive and innocent. She's graceful and elegant, I love how she plays and talks with her animals friends. I've always liked these things about her, but I recently noticed what a good role model she is - and what a good character she is.
She has a lot of respect for authority (unique for a heroine) and when she finds out she is a princess, even though she is in love with Phillip, goes to the kasteel to take on her responsibilities anyway. WOW. Seriously I have so much respect for her.
Why I dislike her: Unfortunately for Aurora, she isn’t in her movie that much – so I don’t have as much time to connect and become invested in her character. She doesn’t have as big of an impact on me as the others.


5. Snow White - Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
Snow White. I love the first animated heroine, the first Disney heroine, and the first Disney princess.
Why I love her: why wouldn’t I love her? Sweet, kind, compassionate, naïve, innocent, graceful, dainty, feminine, lovely, ever cheerful and positive. If these are qualities that I should not like – please tell me why. I love how she runs the dwarfs house like a business, and acts like a mother too them, being sweet but also taking charge. She’s adorable. And has an epic voice.
Why I dislike her: her *almost* ever cheerfulness/positivity can be a little overwhelming sometimes, but I think I’m just jealous that I can’t be like that. Her gulliableness can get a little annoying sometimes too.


4. Cinderella - Cinderella
Cinderella. Growing up as a kid I hated her. I thought she was overrated. Now I think that her face is just over used in the franchise (if that makes any sense) and that her character is very underrated.
Why I love her: well… she’s Cinderella! She manages to stay sweet, caring, loving, generous, and have a kind and gentle soul through years of emotional and physical abuse (forcing your step daughter to be a servant and do hours of strenuous tasks for no pay in her own home pagina whilst being cruel and treating her awfully is both emotional and physical in a way). And through all that she manages to stay hopeful and kind. BEST ROLE MODEL EVER. I could go on about her incredible qualities – but that would take a while. Just know I love her. She works so hard, and ends up with a happy ending – YAY! :D
Why I dislike her: I don’t. I just love the others more.


3. Tiana - The Princess and the Frog
Tiana. Is awesome. That’s a fact. She does not deserve the hate she gets. She’s awesome.
Why I love her: her determination. She works so hard to achieve her dream. She over works, wanting to get her restaurant and make her father proud, it’s so cool that she’s bossy. What other heroine has such a normal and relatable trait as being a little bossy? I love her relationship with her parents, and her value of family. Her relationship with Lottie, how they are so different but still vrienden (she never asks Lottie for money, and is just a good friend to her) her relationship with Louis and straal, ray is so sweet, and mostly her relationship with Naveen. How Tiana learns to grow as a person, lighten up a little and have fun, and achieves her dream, whilst finding new ones too : ).
Why I dislike her: Sometimes she can be a bit of a ‘stick in the mud’ – but she has every reason to be. Her life hadn't been fun, and she worked so hard. So I don't really dislike anything about her.


2. Mulan - Mulan
Mulan. Amazing. I recently wrote an artikel on the Childhood Animated Movie Heroines spot, so I’m going to copy some of what I zei out for Mulan...
Why I love her: Not only does Mulan risk her life for her father door joining the army, be completely awesome door owning everyone in the army and then defeating the Huns and SAVING ALL OF CHINA, but Mulan is also a great character in her personality. Her insecurities because she can’t be the perfect bride of daughter are so real. She’s so quirky and hilarious, but can be really deep and meaningful too. Perfect balance of character. She never thinks she’s all that great, but in reality she’s phenomenal. She’s in my top, boven five favourite animated heroines.
Why I dislike her: I don’t. She’s awesome, I just prefer my number 1.


1. Rapunzel - Tangled
Rapunzel. Yes, that’s right. Rapunzel is my number 1, and I love everything about her. Granted, she does have her flaws, but I still like those too. Some people say that she’s a ‘rip-off’ of the other princesses. I don’t think she’s a rip off. She’s similar to many of the other princesses – that’s something that I love! Rapunzel is like a mix of some of my favourite characters. They took great qualities from great characters and made another great character. And to be fair, she’s a Disney Princess. If u haven’t noticed, they’re all pretty similar.
Why I love her: she’s so creative. Strong willed, determined, dreamy, kind, sweet, naïve, smart, compassionate and so funny. I love how she’s like a classic heroine but with modern qualities as well! Combining two wonderful but different types of characters. She’s so sweet and cute, she reminds me a lot of my friends. Her character development is amazing to watch. How she grows from the sweet and naïve girl into a strong young woman – who still has her original qualities. She’s fun, adventurous, and just wonderful. I love how she accepts Eugene and grows to love him, and is willing to give up her freedom to save him. Everyone loves her – because she’s so sweet and lovely (it is a fairy tale after all). I am blown away door her character every time I watch Tangled, and Rapunzel will continue to be my favourite heroine and princess <3


So… thanks for reading my article! Make a commentaar if u want – I really appreciate them. Sorry if I hurt anyones feelings with my opinion...
