story identification - Cartoon TV Show About Three Kids and Monsters and a "veil" between realms



I'm trying to remember a cartoon tv show where the main boy, a blonde girl, and another boy capture monsters. There was something about a 'veil' between their world and the monster world, but a 'secret society' of sorts stopped the monsters from crossing, or used them to battle the people who wanted to use them for evil led by a wise old lady. I'm pretty sure they trapped monsters into pieces of jewelry or clothing.


Not so sure about this part: and they had these 'supernatural powers' that were connected to their 'aura' and they could travel from place to place with it.


(Another brown haired girl joined because she found out? There was an arc where the blonde got jealous and the monster she controlled attacked the brown haired girl?)


I can't remember much of it, but I remember in the end the 'veil' was broken and monsters flew over the city. And the main boy and the blonde girl held hands... or kissed?



Answer



Kaijudo: Rise of the Duel Masters?


From IMDb:



The series follows the adventures of a young boy named Rai who possesses the rare ability to befriend and duel alongside fantastical creatures from a parallel dimension.




The main boy, a blonde girl, and another boy capture monsters.


Meet Ray (red hoodie boy), Gabe (blue shirt boy), and Allie (blonde-ish girl):


Two boys and a blonde girl


There was something about a 'veil' between their world and the monster world.


TVTropes mentions a veil:



These five shaman warriors took the near powerless bodies of the Creature Rulers and, putting them into a deep sleep, hid them deep underground. Henceforth, The Order of the Kaijudo Duel Masters began. Their charge was to make sure the Creature Rulers stayed in hibernation and also to guard the Veil, making sure nothing came out and keeping the earth and its people ignorant that such things as "monsters" ever existed.


Fast forward to the present day. The Veil is weakening and creatures are coming through. The current generation of Duel Masters are kept busy sending the wayward beasts back home and sealing the rifts they came through, all the while not aware of what this could possibly foretell…



A 'secret society' of sorts stopped the monsters from crossing, or used them to battle the people who wanted to use them for evil led by a wise old lady.



They are the titular Kaijudo Duel Masters, fighting against the Choten forces. The Choten are led by a formerly great Duel Master turned villain, want to use the creatures to rule the world, blah, blah, blah.


The old lady you remembered would be Master Jaha.


Another brown haired girl joined because she found out? There was an arc where the blonde got jealous and the monster she controlled attacked the brown haired girl?


Meet Lucy, a classmate who indeed came to discover the creatures' existence, and was allowed to tag along as an acolyte. Lucy is brown-haired.


Lucy and Ray. Lucy wears a weird glove


Her and Ray don't seem to have a thing, but there's another girl (Alakshmi, a baddie who later joined the light side) who once kissed Ray and made Allie jealous.


In the end [...] the main boy and the blonde girl held hands... or kissed?


The ending of season 1 has Ray and Allie holding hands, which prompts Master Chavez and Nadia (two adult characters) to hold hands as well. Master Jaha (the old lady) is there too, and tells them to "kiss already", which they gladly do.








Found with the Google query cartoon summon monsters "veil" which returned the TVTropes link above.

harry potter - Did Dolores Umbridge Have Any Association with Voldemort (or Death Eaters) before His Return?

I noticed that Dolores Umbridge was born during the first Wizarding War, so it's very likely she wasn't a Death Eater then (but she is pretty evil -- who knows?). After that Voldemort was not around in a way that could affect many people, and most wouldn't know he was planning to rise again. During that time, and up through Voldemort's return (in Goblet of Fire ), did Umbridge have any connection with the Death Eaters or with Voldemort? Was she doing what she did on her own, or was it because of an association with Voldemort or his allies? Answer Dolores Umbridge was definitely not a good person. However, as Sirius points out, "the world isn't split into good people and Death Eaters". Remember that he also says that he doesn't believe Umbridge to be a Death Eater, but that she's evil enough (or something like that). I think there are two strong reasons to believe that: Umbridge was proud to do everything according to the law, except when she trie...

What is the etymology of Doctor Who?

I recently decided to watch Doctor Who, and started viewing the 2005 version. I have the first two episodes from the first season, and I can't help but wonder what is the etymology of the name "Doctor Who"? And why does the protagonist call himself "the Doctor" (or is it "the doctor")? Answer In the very first episode of Doctor Who (way back in 1963), the Doctor has a granddaughter going by the name "Susan Foreman", and the junkyard where the TARDIS is has the sign "I.M. Foreman". Barbara, who becomes one of the Doctor's companions, calls him "Doctor Foreman" (probably assuming that is his name given his relationship to Susan), and Ian (another early companion) does the same in the second episode, to which the Doctor says: Eh? Doctor who? What's he talking about? "Foreman" is most likely selected as a convenient surname for Susan to use because it happened to be on display near where the TARDIS landed....

story identification - Animation: floating island, flying pests

At least 20 years ago I watched a short animated film which stuck in my mind. The whole thing was wordless, possibly European, and I'm pretty sure I didn't imagine it... It featured a flying island which was inhabited by some creatures who (in my memory) reminded me of the Moomins. The island was frequently bothered by large winged animals who swooped around, although I don't think they did any actual damage. At the end one of the moomin creatures suddenly gets a weird feeling, feels forced to climb to the top of the island and then plunges down a shaft right through the centre - only to emerge at the bottom as one of the flyers. Answer Skywhales from 1983. The story begins with a man warning the tribe of approaching skywhales. The drummers then warn everybody of the hunt as everyone get prepared to set "sail". Except one man is found in his home sleeping as the noise wake him up. He then gets ready and is about to take his weapon as he hesitates then decides ...
