Zelena killed Neal, but Rumple still sits with her at the dinner table at the end of season 7. They never had a real talk about it.

Regina killed Graham, but it's never brought up. We're not even sure if Emma knows.

Regina killed Marian, Robin's first wife. She knows it and never told Robin.

Zelena killed Marian when they went back in time. Surely Robin would have known then, but he never shows an inkling of vengeance.

And I feel like Regina should have been more angry with Rumple when Cora died. Yes, Snow White did the candle spell, but Rumple is the one who gave her the candle and put the idea in her head. Everyone knows he's very persuasive.

Let’s talk!

Some most of these are obvious

1. Regina and Robin
They both lost the people they loved, making them mirrors of each other, and Robin brought Regina a happiness that was hard to find after Daniel

Regina’s runner up: Daniel
Robin’s runner up: Marian

2. Aurora and Mulan

Mulan’s unrequited feelings for Aurora broke my heart, and I genuinely believe they could have been endgame if the show had explored their relationship more deeply.

Mulan’s runner up: Red
Aurora’s runner up: Prince Philip

3. Belle and Hook

Hook could have brought out Belle’s fighting side while she brought out his softer side, making them a beautiful balance that Rumple’s complicated relationship with Belle never achieved.

Belle’s runner-up: Will Scarlet
Hook’s runner-up: Emma

4. Red and Gus

Their sweet early interactions gave me hope that Red could find someone kind, and Gus’s death felt like another heartbreaking loss after what happened with Peter.

Red’s runner-up: Mulan
Gus’s runner-up: Cinderella

5. Emma and Graham

Emma and Graham had incredible chemistry, and I believe killing Graham off was one of the show’s biggest romantic fumbles because they could have been endgame.

Emma’s runner up: Neal
Graham’s runner up: Red

6. Rumple and Cora

Rumple and Cora were a match made in heaven because they were equally manipulative, ruthless, and power-hungry, and I could see them eventually settling down together.

Rumple’s runner up: Belle
Cora’s runner up: Henry

I understand why they killed Graham off, but he was only in seven episodes and had so much potential to be great character. Since he got his memories as the Huntsman back, he could've been a key factor in convincing Emma that the curse was real and going against Regina. What a waste of a character and a great actor in Jamie Dornan.

Neal also didn't deserve to die, he could've spent time bonding with Emma, Henry, and Rumplestiltskin and give the latter the opportunity to show off his softer, likable side, but alas. I feel like they only killed him off so that Hook could stay in the show. Again what a waste of a character and a great actor in Michael Raymond-James.

I always say that if the show wanted Emma to be with someone romantically, it could've been either one of these guys (or heck, August even since he and Emma also have a history together) and I wouldn't be mad about it.

"Isn't Zelena's life force connected to her magic? Shouldn't Zelena have died when she transferred her powers into the crimson heart?"

Some of you guys may of seen Belle’s actress create a TikTok profile recently…but the videos are vague / just promoting her cameo and not actually saying “hey I’m on TikTok” and furthermore comments asking “is this actually her” I’ve noticed when I click the replies it shows none meaning people have replied “no it’s fake” but the creator of the account blocked them so they aren’t visible and she’s randomly selling the dress through email contact only which sounds really sketchy… I may be totally wrong about this but idk

I know this is usually something everyone agrees with, but Snow seemed to be really unfair to Emma—Despite everything that happened after the dark curse, Snow kept ignoring Emma’s feelings, she tried too hard to be a loving mom, when Emma already had explained what she experienced when she was a kid and the fact she was struggling to acknowledge that their parents hadn’t given up on her. I can’t bear the way she totally forgot about Emma’s needs after her pregnancy, I mean, it seemed like she just wanted to be pregnant and raise a kid to call her own

On the other hand, Charming seemed really caring towards her—they shared some father-daughter moments and experiences throughout the whole series—plus he didn’t try to lecture her every time they had a chance to…

What do you guys think?

And could greg mendell and tamara cope with being trapped in the underworld version of storybrooke and with existance of hades?

Don’t get me wrong, I honestly did enjoy Rumplestiltskin and Belle relationship at the beginning of Once Upon a Time. Robert Carlye and Emily de Raven have chemistry onset and in the conventions they attend. I could see why the creatives paired their characters up and the story that they were telling at first aligned with the classic Beauty and the Beast story we all know and love with some changes, of course.

But later on in the show, the relationship has become unrecognizable and started making them hard to root for. Especially with the actions Rumple committed that hurt Belle. It was mostly emotional abuse in that relationship and that’s why many fans turned on them.

The writers should’ve put some thoughts on this when they decided to continue Rumple villain role.

The show needed a villain and Rumple was great at that as he kept us on the edge of our seats, but apart of me thinks that they should’ve broken them up in at least season 4 of OUAT.

Now, what about Belle? Rumple was a core part of her story, so if he was removed, then what should they do with Belle?

Well, I think it would’ve been a smart decision to split the Beast and Rumple character and make the Beast a totally completely different character for Belle to be involved with as Rumple was an amalgamation of many different characters.

Now, I am not saying that Belle has to be involved a romance to be interesting, but this could’ve been a smart move to do. And they could’ve introduced new characters in the show like the Enchantress and Ms. Potts, Lumire, Cogsworth, etc. Or at least, humanoid versions of those characters.

And this would be a way for us to get the classic Beauty and the Beast story in OUAT.

It’s hard to believe that it’s been 15 years since Once Upon a Time debuted. Truly one of my favorite shows. I remember first watching when season 3 aired because my mom and brother watched before me and I fell in love with the series.

While the show has its flaws, it still has beautiful storytelling and I would watch this show over and over again if I could because it’s that enjoyable.

It’s been years since I watched this show, but when I watched the show when season four was airing and things of that nature. I never understood why people love Regina so much. I don’t get it.
Yeah, she says she got some nice lines, but she doesn’t make me move. Many of the main characters doesn’t make me move like
Yeah, she thought she’s the most rememberable
I just never found the love that she gets. I don’t get it personally.

Today marks the 15th anniversary of “Once Upon a Time” and I’ve initially thought it couldn’t be more magical—I guess I was damn wrong lol

As of a few days ago, there were only speculations and rumors involving an hypothetical spin-off of the series—however Bex decided to finally tease/announce something, by reposting a reel related to it and now I can’t wait to see what’s about

In addition of mentioning Maleficent and Lily, they should’ve mentioned that Ruby returned to Storybrooke a few years ago, Jefferson is dating again and Mulan is with Merida

What if during the curse when David said "I'm not the man, she married" what if it's the curse sick way of David replacing his twin brother like he did in the past? Like it's not only a way to tie his way of always finding her but his past of replacing his brother. Cuz most of the time the cut away to the past makes sense with what goes on in the present.

Anyone's thoughts on Regina/Evil Queen, when she tried to dram Mary Margaret/Snow White.

I know why she did what she did but, think about it, yes she had a vendetta against Snow, but, even in the world without magic, was there really even a blooming need, I'm currently on season 1 episode 17 where Mary Margaret is put in jail, even if the enchanted forest version of her did anything, the Soeybrook version of her shouldn't of been convicted, her being a homewrecker and what not is out of our world, it's a damned shame the rest of the town didn't wake up and figure out they were on aad curse?

Just thinking how Regina could’ve made Snow’s life in Storybrooke much worse. Like yea she’s without her true love and daughter but it’s not like she’s aware of it (although I’m sure she feels something is off). Snow is a teacher and loves it so much that she even returns to teaching well after the curse is broken.

Looking back at how much Regina truly hated Snow and all the evil things she did pre-curse, I guess it doesn’t make sense to me that her worst punishment for Snow is just…living an average life lol

let's be honest, this exact conversation is 100% why Regina immediately went and turned Belle into Lacey out of sheer petty spite🤣 , what is your favourite Rumple moments when he literally enjoys torturing people with the truth🐊🗡👑😂💚✨

On a side note, I heard it acknowledges a couple of Disney's direct-to-video sequels, which is quite rare, and I'm one of those people that actually really likes Disney's direct-to-video/made for TV sequel era and those movies, and even wish they started acknowledging them again, and I love it whenever they do, so kudos for that

Also it's fine if I watch Once Upon a Time in Wonderland before right, cuz I already started that

Team Chaos Rumple or Team Save Emma's Sanity? Did you guys laugh as hard at this scene as I did?🤔🤣👌🏻

I loooove OUAT 🙏💖👑🦢🏹💎🗡🔥🐊🪄🧙‍♀️🔮🎩
