POV: You relate to Mirabel a little too much. (Encanto Playlist)

This definitely reflects Mirabel’s bitterness. While she is an optimistic character she has deep rooted pain, jealousy and anger. I admire that despite all that she CHOOSES to smile and love, thats what makes her strong. She reminds me so much of Deku in more ways than just them being quirkless. Lovely playlist by the way! Please do more

Headcannon: Mirabel took up sewing at a young age because most of the clothes she got were hand-me downs from her older sisters and Dolores. Edit: please stop commenting about the spelling mistakes, it doesn't make you any better than a Grammer nazi or a troll, love y'all <3!

I relate too much to both Mirabel and Luisa. I literally cried when Luisa sang her "crumble and pressure" song thing.

I also cried half of the movie. As a older sister I have always felt in the shadow of my younger sister (in opposition to the other commenters) because she was good at everything and I couldn't find my thing. When I was in primary school I was told I was gifted and talented, so I pull the bar pretty high for myself. I feel like I'm letting everyone down, because I really don't know what makes me gifted. So yeah. Thanks Disney.

I cried throughout the whole movie, because I relate to her so much... Everyone around me is special in their own way and has a "skill" or a "power" but then there's me. I am not special. I don't have my own skill, I don't have anything to dedicate my whole life to. I compare myself to my friends and other people around me. I'm jealous. Then I cry, then I rage and then I'm feeling depressed again.

This playlist is coming from someone who has always been in the shadow of her family and older brothers. I related a lot to Mirabel because I know what she’s feeling, like a lot of other people. It’s always, “Oh, * is your brother right?” “Oh, how are the twins!?” They never ask how I am, or how I’m feeling. It’s always the older siblings. Even at family events, my brothers and cousins have the spotlight. I don’t, and honestly? I’m sometimes happy about that. It’s not always fun being in a Mexican household :/

Like Mirabel, my mistakes are more focused on rather than my achievements. Being compared to others is bad, but being expected to always be... horrible at things with a low bar of expectations set for you sucks because whenever you try to change, people just assume you are the same person you were.

To be honest when I was watching Encanto I never thought i'd relate to Mirabel because she's just another Disney protagonist,,, right? That's where I was wrong. Oh boy, I was so so wrong. I try and have tried so hard to get the love and acceptance that my other siblings get from our parents and now I've just given up. All of the teachers and friends that know me well will know how much I adore and love the aspect of musical theater/drama as a whole. I'm such a theater kid I know lol. Drama is what I want to become my career and my parents are refusing to acknowledge that fact, I've tried so many times to convince them that this is the path I want but now it's like they don't even want me in their family since i'm such a "disgrace" for liking creative subjects, such as drama and art. Doesn't help that i keep being overshadowed and overshined by all of my siblings and cousins. I also managed to relate to Bruno as well in the aspect of being isolated and considered the "black sheep" of the family, very similar to how I relate to Mirabel. I'm done with trying to convince my parents. I've fucking had it.

Living as an adhd kid prone to anger outbursts, contrasting to the golden perfect child that is my twin, this playlist hits hard.

As a person that always gets compares to her older Sister and is always in the shadow, because I’m not the perfect child. I relate to Mirabel-

I had to hold back tears at certain parts of the movie. The day before watching it, my parents were having a particularly upsetting argument that only came to any sort of end because I broke down. Since the event was still at the forefront of my mind, I was making all sorts of connections to my family while watching the movie with my family. I related too much to Mirabel seeing the "cracks" and wanting to fix things so badly but knowing that there isn't much I can do on my own. (I normally wouldn't have said anything, but seeing other people's comments made me want to share my connection with Mirabel).

i really didnt think i would relate to mirabel but omg when her song came on i was HIT IN THE GUTTT. ive always felt incompetent next to everyone in my family with their intelligence and their endless pit of awards. I cried alot in the theatre when Mirabel told abuela "i will never be good enough, will i? no matter how hard i try" cause thats exactly how i felt with my own mom! encanto was a great movie and this playlist is awesome!

I had to keep my feelings in throughout the entire movie. Even though none of my family has a magical gift, it still feels like everyone else besides me is good at something. And god does it hurt to hear my mom’s disappointment for myself not being like my cousins, friends or another relative.

Marina and the Diamonds always there to perfectly express the angst of being young. damn, it seems like she has a song for every playlist out there.

I relate to all three sisters-- Luisa as a big sister* (I am the of everyone in our generation in my family), Isabel as the golden child with a perfect reputation to uphold, and Mirabel, as my current self. I relate to Mirabel so much because (quoting Bruno here) "my gift was acting." My younger sister-- I love her and she's amazing but it just really gets to me when she excels at everything I can and can't do. And because of this, I don't know why I'm still here. I have no purpose whatsoever or goal in life. I've been a bad place almost my entire life and I'm only figuring that out rn... so it's all overwhelming-- all that piled up emotion. And rn, everyone around me is expecting so much from as "the kid who always rose to the top," and yet again, all I could do is just look at them with the best and fakest smile I could muster and think, "the higher you climb, the harder you fall, am I right?" I watched this film with them and sang along with all their songs. Hopefully, they got the hint. Although I really doubt that. No one ever does honestly.

first song: mirabel starts getting jealous cause she doesn't have a gift yet. she starts to loose it, y'know mad issues and stuff

I related so much to mirabel all my older sisters are super talented 1 Kylee -21, got a full scholarship to college is the oldest (Dolores) 2 Ashlyn-19 in a culinary arts program, cooking for famous people, super artistically and musically talented ( Isabella but nice) 3 Nicole-17 in nursing school, nationally ranked archer, musically talented (Luisa) And then there’s me I’m a C average, can hardly cook, mediocre artist, avoids people, quit piano and is mediocre at the drums the only unique thing about me is that I do martial arts and swim and am ADHD All my sisters are the golden children especially Ashlyn and are put first I’m in the background supporting them as they shine and are successful while I try to get my family to notice me Life can be hard when you feel like ur entire family is amazing but your never good enough seeing myself in this movie is amazing I can relate to both mirabel as the seemingly untalented sibling who lacks the gifts of her siblings and Bruno the odd one out who the rest of the family doesn’t understand and shuns because of it

as the youngest child, i've never related more to mirabel. my older siblings have all done so much with their lives while i haven't done anything of note that my parents can be proud of like my siblings have. my parents are a lot like abuela honestly. they're never proud of me, i'm not important to them, and they always blame me whenever we get in fights. it's always my fault, never theirs, ever. it's my fault that i don't have a good relationship with any of my family (especially them tho), just like how it was mirabel's fault that there were cracks in the house. wow venting is actually really stress relieving

Hello. I would like to tell you, whoever you are, that you DO matter. Mirabel is an amazing, creative, kind person/character worthy of love and so are you! Of course, I don't know any of you personally and I don't know all your struggles. But you deserve to be loved and known just like everyone else and I wish you all that the hard times will be over soon. One day, people will appreciate you for who you are and what you do and until that day comes, it's up to you to do it! Because you're the one who knows best how much you're hurting and you should also know how much you deserve all the good things in a world. Anyway, if you read it all the way down, I hope you're having a good day. <3

Being Colombian having parents who moved from their troubled households isn't the best, and when Mirabel said she'd "never make her family happy" I held my tears in while my family was there, it was so fucking hard to do lmao
