The Umbrella Academy is one of the most watched and cherished shows on Netflix after its major blockbuster hits like Stranger Things and Ozark. The show follows a supernatural plotline quite parallel to Stranger Things with a group of seven powerful siblings of a broken family. But as the show progresses, each of them expresses their vulnerabilities but we have one sibling to worry about the most. Here’s what Redditors have to say about it lately.

The Umbrella Academy fans talk about how to get Lila’s powers back

Fans have been discussing Lila’s supernatural power of being able to mimic the powers of all her other siblings. But there are some limitations that Lila’s powers have to abide by. In the latest season, we see her essentially mimicking the powers of everyone she has on her radar.

In season 3, it became evident that Klaus was not going to die, at least not any sooner. Thus, curious fans ask if Lila uses her power to use her siblings’ then could she be immortal too.

However, it would only work by dying and coming back, so if she dies and Klaus doesn’t, then she wouldn’t be able to because Klaus isn’t there. Worse, if Klaus also dies and they somehow end up together then she can only go back if the rest of them can use their powers in the afterlife.
