MARÍA POSADA, MANOLO SÁNCHEZ, and JOAQUÍN MONDRAGON from THE BOOK OF LIFE
Justification:
"The three are childhood friends and the two boys always joked and playfully fought about María marrying one of them… Then the gods of Death made a bet on who María would end up with. Seriously.
La Muerte (queen of Land of The Remembered) bet on Manolo and Xibalba (king of Land of The Forgotten) bet on Joaquín, and if Xibalba won, they would switch places. Xibalba gave Joaquín a MacGuffin for him to not die, and killed Manolo (he came back tho and kicked Xibalba's ass).
Polyamory would've quite literally saved Manolo. Also, they're such a cool battle throuple!
(also I had to search some of the names and found out they're making a sequel and I'M SOO HYPED NOW!!!)" - @octonine
I recently watched it in English because we watched it in my Spanish class (I didn't have the privilege of watching it during childhood) and I like it a lot. Some of the reasons I like it are:
Literally everything about Joaquin
The ending and the way the movie ended the love triangle plot. Instead of villainizing the one character, there wasn't anything wrong with Joaquin, María was just more romantically attracted to Manolo. They hardly even fought over her and stayed friends the whole time.
The part of the plot about Manolo refusing to kill a bull, and how that impresses María because of her love for animals
Maria's character design is hilariously absurd and so are a bunch of the other ones
Creep by Radiohead out of absolutely nowhere caught me 100 percent off guard
Manolo erupting from the ground in a pillar of light was absolutely hilarious for no reason
This crossover trio collage on Manolo Sánchez, Miguel Rivera and Mirabel Madrigal were based on artworks and memes I have seen on Tumblr. I decided to call them the Hispanic M Trio, with them being Hispanic and their names starting with the letter "M." Its on the nose, but it would do until a better title comes up.
