Her development and redemption makes sense when you see what she's been through , The Amity we saw on the beginning wasn't the real her, She was never a bully on the inside , She was forced to be due to her mother’s abusive and social pressure , Her arrogance and confidence was a mask , Before Luz , Everyone just saw her on the outside and judged her based on what she was doing , Even Willow , No one accepted the real her , Although she still had some soft points such as reading book to kids and leaving Grugby after hurting her friends , But things like humiliation after witch's duel and her humiliation in front of her siblings were the first cracks on her mask , Luz was the first person who showed her kindness and honesty and saw the real her inside her and accepted her without wanting anything in return on judging her , She showed her that it's okay to be imperfect , She inspired her and encouraged her to not be ashamed of her real self and fight for the person she really wants to be , So it's normal if Amity falls in love with Luz , Because she's the first one who made her feel safe. Luz brought hope and happiness back to her life.
Saying things like she suddenly change after 3 episodes or just became a girlfriend with no character or just a gay disaster or saying Luz is her sole motivation to do anything or becoming soft just so she could get with Luz is just surface level takes.
She didn't lose her personality , She earned it. She was finally happy , an brave , kind and rebellious individual who fights for the person she wants to be and protect the people she loves against anyone who tries to hurt them.
We saw her panic around Luz ? Sure , But we only saw her obsessed with Luz or saying I'm Luz gf for only one or two episodes , Some people really just exaggerate about that, Besides , It's a normal teenager thing to blush about their crush , It's a crush trait , Not gay trait.
Besides , she was still new to expressing feelings , She wasn't an expert at it , And that's okay , it's how people usually do about their crush.
Romance doesn't erase her personality , It helped it growth :
Her softness
Her anxiety
Her friendship
Her awkwardness
Her protective instincs .
Those traits were already there , Just buried , A character showing vulnerability is not losing their personality , It's expanding it.
Being soft around Luz doesn't erase or replace her personality , It adds depth :
Her intelligence
Her determination
Her bravery
Her moral growth
Her friendships.
She still has her own agency outside her romance with Luz :
Fixing her relationship with Willow
Facing her fear of playing grudby to protect her real friends and stand up to the unreal
Friends
Standing up to Odalia and threatening their business to protect her friends
Reconnecting with her siblings
Attending the brawl without her father's permission and then Reconnecting with him
Helping the rebellion and fighting Belos
Confronting Boscha
Final confrontation of Odalia after she tried to warn her about the day of unity and trying to take the control of her life again by trying to remove Luz from her life only because she wasn't a rich girl or something.
Helping to rebuild the isles.
Trying to find a way to go home.
Becoming so awesome at using abomination.
In the epilogue , We can see her becoming an Explorer who travels all around the world.
So yeah , Her storyline exists out of romance .
If she was only a gay disaster , she wouldn't have any of that.
She's a prodigy at abomination for sure , But she never really wanted to become a prodigy or join a coven or something.
She wanted to be a kid having fun with her friends.
In s3 e1 , We can see that she's totally happy , Spending time with her friends , Trying fashion with them , Watching silly movies with them , going to beach with her girlfriend , Wearing Halloween customes. She was finally happy. She was being the real herself and embracing her real character.
So it makes zero sense to say she only became a girlfriend with no character or just a gay disaster.
She never lost her personality , She earned it.
You wanna know what's unique about her ? A brave , kind individual with passion who doesn't afraid of being the real herself and protect the people she loves against anyone who tries to hurt them.
She still has her interests : Library and books especially Azura , Abomination and friendship.
She still has some competitive spirit but she was mentally healthy.
She has the pride , but it's real now.
You can see all of it if you be able to look outside the box.
If not the most , She's one of the most complex character in the show with layered feelings.
If you upset about screen time it's okay , So good we have Moringmarkugh from Instagram to continue the show and especially Amity’s story for us , He's been expanding it since 2021 and fixing the damage disney caused.
