These strong female characters certainly have their weaknesses; they wouldn't be very interesting characters if they didn't. Elsa can be distant to the people she loves, she has trouble accepting help, and she fails to recognize her own limitations.
Her powers, though distressing to her, are beautiful, and show that she is a force she is to be reckoned with. She is diplomatic and tries to help her subjects with their problems. On the other hand, Elsa's fear of herself led to several other problems, like her anxiety and overprotectiveness.
What sets Elsa apart from the mass array of Disney princesses is her inner battle with mental illness, anxiety and depression. In Frozen II, Elsa is the only person who can hear a voice but everyone couldn't.
Elsa fears she will not be accepted by her sister or her town. This feeling worsens as her parents pass away. Now with no one having knowledge of her powers the pressure increases for her to stay hidden. As she becomes required to attend her coronation, she begins overthinking how she will keep her powers hidden.

One of Elsa's biggest problems in Frozen was her inability to control her powers. "Let It Go" showed her slowly learning to let loose and embrace her abilities, and by the end of the film, she was able to take back her unending winter. This was all reversed after Frozen 2 was released.
If Frozen was the story of Elsa's tentative first steps in exploring and accepting her genetic condition and deafness, Frozen 2 sees her dancing and singing into Deafhood, actualizing her Deaf identity, and embracing Deaf culture and ethnicity.
We also see hints of Elsa's anxiety, so common in autism: her fears about her magical powers, her reluctance to be in the limelight as queen and her desire to “let it go.” Toward the end, we also see her anxiety as Anna falls into a deep coma.
Although Elsa's disability is encoded as a magical ice power, the language the film uses to talk about her condition maps on to the experiences of people with physical, mental, and intellectual disabilities in recognizable ways.
Elsa of Arendelle is a fictional character who appears in Walt Disney Animation Studios' animated fantasy film Frozen (2013), and later media of the Frozen franchise, including its sequel Frozen II (2019).
Originally Answered: In Frozen What are Elsa and Anna's full names? They would either take their kingdom's name (Elsa of Arendelle/Anna of Arendelle), or, at that time in Norway, they would've taken the name of their father (Elsa Agnarrsdotter/Anna Agnarrsdotter).
The ice from which the palace is constructed is capable of taking on different colors, such as purple, blue, red and yellow, based on Elsa's emotional state (blue when she is happy or neutral, yellow or amber when she is angry, and red when she is frightened).
Elsa spent almost her entire childhood locked up, isolated and somewhat imprisoned in her own room because of her own powers. The choices her parents made didn't help either because, instead of trying to help her learn how to master her powers or accept them, they tried to help her hide them.
Canonically, she is not romantically interested in anybody. And lest you wonder if that description means Elsa is asexual or aromantic, neither of those qualities is canon either. Canonically, she's nothing when it comes to her sexuality. Which also means she isn't (yet) canonically straight.
There hasn't been any indication that Elsa will have a girlfriend in Frozen III. That said, some fans have theorized that Honeymaren, a member of the Northuldra tribe, will be Elsa's girlfriend in the next Frozen film. Honeymaren was introduced in Frozen II as a resident of the Enchanted Forest.
Yes, this is liberating. But is it healthy? In Part I of the Frozen series, I suggested that Elsa experiences something like borderline personality disorder (BPD). In this interpretation, Elsa's frozen rages are an outward display of the emotional dysregulation she feels inside.
At 21 years of age in the original film and 24 in the sequel, Elsa is a beautiful young woman, has a tall and slender build, blue eyes, rosy cheeks, thin pink lips, a small nose, long, platinum-blonde hair, and pale skin with a light dusting of freckles (a trait she shares with her sister Anna, though less prominent).
When they showed what was finished of the film to a Story Trust group several months prior to release, many were still confused about who the voice was supposed to belong to. It was after that the decision was made to fully commit to the voice calling to Elsa being that of her mother, Iduna.
Elsa's weakness is her lack of confidence (due to the trauma she endured growing up). Because she was taught that her powers were a "curse", she never saw herself as worthy of other people's love and affection.
She lived in fear of hurting anyone with her powers, and spent much of her formative years shut out from the world. Although it pained her greatly to do so, Elsa also found it necessary to distance herself from her family so there would be no risk of causing further harm.
