To anybody who has watched Brave, it's clear that Merida is not your average princess. Everything about her (her story, her character, her hopes and dreams) is inspirational and refreshing in ways that weren't seen before in the other princesses. I guess she's not everybody's cup of tea, but to some, Merida is truly amazing. She's brave, she's feisty, she's determined - but most of all Merida recognises her flaws and changes them.

Here is why Team Merida loves Merida:

Merida shows bravery and teaches us that we do not need a man. She is also wise to understand, what to do with her mother when she turns into a bear. She wasn't prepared for marriage that's why she tried very hard to stop it. She didn't know what was going to happen if her mother eats the cake. When she realized that she made mistakes, she apologized for it; teaching us one thêm thing "Your choice is not always the perfect choice."

Merida is a feisty, smart and loving young girl. She knows exactly what wants and she is smart enough to figure out how to do it. She was irrational ad immature in the beginning of the movie, but she quickly realised her mistake and tried to fix it. She blamed it on the witch at first, but then realised that it was her own fault and even went about fixing the other tribes. She was heartbroken when her mom could not be changed back. I have a strong connection with my family, and seeing how she reacted broke my heart. Merida teaches us that bạn don't have to find true tình yêu until bạn are ready, that bạn should listen to your parents and that bạn can't always be right. :)

I tình yêu Merida because she does all the things that a princess wouldn't do. She doesn't care what anybody thinks of her. Her decision not to get married so young was a right one. She did not want to be controlled for the rest of her life. Merida's characteristics, feisty, tough, and adventurous captivate me so much when watching Brave. Also, I like how Merida was amazing at archery. It is an impressive skill. The fact that she was so dedicated to it really was amazing. Sure, Merida has made some wrong decisions but doesn't everyone? She learned from her mistake. Most importantly, she teaches us to never give up and that we should never allow anything hoặc anyone to get in the way of our goals. Merida will always be an amazing Disney Princess to me.

Some people may disagree with me, but as a teenager, I relate to Merida thêm than any other princess. Merida isn't portrayed as flawless hoặc overly beautiful, as teenage girls often feel they are expected to be. Merida is realistic and relate-able. When something is bad in Merida's life, she makes a huge effort to CHANGE it. There have been so many times when I've felt helpless in my current situation, that it was only bởi thinking about Merida that I managed to do something about it. I bet there are many people out there who feel trapped. Merida may give them the inspiration to do something about it.

And finally, I'd like to end with a quote from dclairmont, who I feel was able to sum up our feelings about Merida perfectly:
"All in all, Merida is amazing. She's very symbolic to me, and a big inspiration to hiển thị that bạn can change; you're expectations, your fate, your actions, your flaws, and still be you."
