In the world of Disney leading ladies, all eyes are always on the traditional princesses. But maybe we don’t need a princess, but a warrior.
While Cinderella is at the ball and Belle is reading books, Mulan is saving China. CHINA! She risks her life, posing as a man, to save her family and ends up saving her whole nation.
Mulan as a character is also so different from her princess counterparts. She was destined to be a bride, but it didn’t suit her. She changed her destined, found her true place in the world, and fought through all the adversity to prove it.
And overall, she did everything to save her father. Her love is for her family first and foremost, and her story is not finding her “prince”. Take that Frozen, Mulan did it first!
She also lucked out with very supportive friends, even after being abandoned in the mountains and snow.
Who is your most underrated Disney lady? Let me know below!
Mulan is a great film and the soundtrack is amazing!
Mulan is by far my favorite. I honestly listen to songs from the soundtrack monthly!
I’ve never seen this, I feel kind of left out lol!
I love Mulan! The Song that Donny Osmand sings is one of my FAVOURITE Disney songs. Such a great movie and so funny, Belle is reading, Rapunzel is brushing her hair, Ariel is sulking over a guy, Mulan is saving China 🙂
Mulan is the best! I always find it frustrating that she’s frequently portrayed in her matchmaker dress when she was more herself dressed as a soldier.
Exactly! At least have her in the last dress if in one at all. The matchmaking is not the important part of her story.
