I only watched this sporadically, but my kids went through this series very quickly after Gravity Falls, one of their top three shows. Despite the fantastic dangers, the show over all seemed light-hearted and fun. Luz's total disappearance into a fantasy realm (of her own making?) by following a creature through a door suggests Alice in Wonderland, as does the show's total disregard for the "real world," including her mother, in favor of its creatively imaginative realms. The show also continues the reclamation of the "witch" title in global animation beginning with Kiki's Delivery Service and with many recent examples; in Owl House, what is especially noticeable is how the loner Eda becomes like a substitute mother for Luz: an intergenerational bonding of adolescent and adult witch, both misunderstood by their families.
