Lunella Lafayette is a young Haitian-American girl who is the daughter of Adria Lafayette and James Lafayette. She daydreams and loves to invent. Despite possessing an astoundingly large intellect, Lunella is unable to get into better schools and attends Public School 20 Anna Silver.
Lunella Lafeyette is a 13-year-old black girl, who is the daughter of Adria Lafayette and James Lafayette Jr, as well as the granddaughter of Mimi Lafayette and Pops. She lives in the Lower East Side of New York City, and is a gifted young girl smart at school subjects.
Fans have long speculated as to whether or not Lunella Lafayette, also known as Moon Girl, is on the Autism Spectrum. Now, series co-creator Brandon Montclare has addressed that question, saying that although it absolutely influenced the character's depiction, it's something he aims to leave unsaid.
In the comics, Kid Kree's relationship with Moon Girl was rather one-sided. He aimed to capture Moon Girl to prove himself to his father, but was frequently ignored or tossed aside by the more mature hero. Once Lunella showed kindness to him, he immediately fell in love with her and asked for her hand in marriage.
Moon Girl confesses her secret to her new ally: Lunella discovers she's a NuHuman (a Human/Inhuman hybrid) and feels terrified of undergoing Terrigenesis. Many adventures later, Lunella does indeed undergo the process and comes out the other side with the Inhuman power to switch minds with her dinosaur.
Described as one of the smartest people in the Marvel Universe (which as we know is saying a lot), 13-year-old Lunella Lafayette protects her beloved Lower East Side community as the roller-skating, gadget wielding superhero known as Moon Girl.
In "Skip This Ad... olescence", a future scenario depicts Eduardo going to prom with Lunella, implying that not only does he admire her, but he also harbors a crush on her as well. This was later confirmed in "Dancing With Myself".
Her powers derived from a Moon rock. Her love interest was Prince Mengu, who tried to invade her kingdom in Samarkand, but became her companion and fellow teacher in America.
Young genius and Inhuman Lunella Lafayette displays bravery beyond her years, using her vast intelligence and her telepathic link with Devil Dinosaur to become a hero.
Following the episode "Today, I Am a Woman", Steve Loter was asked if the series is canon with the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but he responded with a zipped lip emoji. He later admitted that while the series is not directly tied to the MCU, it will continue to borrow heavy elements.
However, fans of the Moon Girl comic have pointed out one major difference between it and the show: 13-year-old super-genius Lunella Lafayette doesn't appear to be an Inhuman, an element of her backstory that was instrumental in her origin.
It is the type of thing where Lunella is developing as a character. Early on in the season, she faces a foe that she can't defeat with her superpower, which is her brain, and develops PTSD based on that encounter.
Interbreeding with various other races led to the creation of a second race of Kree with pink skin. The Pink Kree would eventually come to outnumber the Blue Kree.
Lovable, relatable characters, solid storylines, and the art direction is fresh and inspired. My daughter and I watch this together, and I recommended it for my niece and nephew as well (ages 12 and 5), but in all honesty I'm a middle-aged man enjoying this as well. There's something for everyone here.
