Disney animated movies have always been recognized and loved by most. They tend to deliver heartfelt messages through films that also feature colorful characters and catchy music.

They've put out memorable movies with diverse protagonists like Moana, Raya, and Mirabel. The last one, Mirabel, is from the extraordinarily animated Disney movie Encanto.

Encanto tells a tale about a family living hidden in a charmed community located in the Colombian mountains. They're not just any other family though, they've got something special.

Their origin is explained in a movie but the most obvious difference they have amongst other people living where they are is their gifts. Each and every one of them has unique gifts that are sort of like superpowers that let them help give back to their community.

There's just one problem. Mirabel, who was supposed to get her gift too after hitting a certain age, ended up without one, or so they thought. Despite Mirabel being the main character, the family portrayed a huge role in the wholesomeness of the movie.

It was simply centered on values and connections that family from their culture has. The overall message however applies to a family in general.

An interesting subject about their family is Mirabel's cousins. They are sources of entertaining facts and amusing doubts, like these Tumblr posts.

More than just interesting theories about the family members' gifts, a lot of people have put in their two cents about how they were feeling emotionally. From Antonio's innocence to the extent of Dolores' gift, these Tumblr users came up with some pretty good discussions.

1. They might've thought that he was already a natural in being friends with big leopards

2. No one can truly know what goes on with Dolores with the kind of gift she has

3. Have you ever had a cousin that was also your best friend?

4. This started out as a very possible theory then got us with the heartwarming conclusion

5. He probably didn't know how much someone needing her means

6. The Dolores gift theories keep on coming and it gets more mindblowing each time

7. His innocent admiration for his tio Bruno despite the bad things they say about him is endearing

8. This would have been a mess to cover up

9. Yeah, sure. Bruno is the only 'crazy' one.

10. Camilo lurking around the online world

11. Other than his actual gift, Antonio being so pure is one of the best magic yet.

12. Their family connections run deep that even magic gifts can't surpass

13. At least they know why Luisa felt so pressured

14. The representation matters

15. It's always interesting to see the process and ideas behind scenes, as well as the characters

16. No cynicism or anything, he saw how Bruno needed help and stepped up

Disney's Encanto is filled with easter eggs just like any other Disney movie. And although it's interesting to figure out every now and then, it's more heartwarming to discover theories about characters that would make you sympathize with them more.

The representation in the movie also attracted a big audience. Not only that but the relatable family behavior made sure that Encanto was a hit.
