#ahhhh this SHOWWQWW

[ozzo-the-wozzo]

Happy 6 year anniversary miraculous! (And a late 3 year anniversary to my first ml fandom post!)

So on a few days ago 3 years ago, I made this rather cringy (but still very nostalgic) post, making it so that after I lurked in the fandom since 2016 doing nothing but liking posts, this was my first formal introduction to the ML fandom. 

(Post gets long so here’s a cut lol)

I’ve seen A LOT in my time here... people making (and, more laughably) debunking theories on Gabriel being hawkmoth before season 2 aired, the breakdancing au, pinkdrien, brown/grey eyed marinette, pizza bug and cola cat, the cursed adrichat saga, the fandom freaking out over the frozer trailer when it came out because it teased a reveal, the WAVE of salt after Chameleon aired (and the freak out over the chameleon trailer), when Oblivio first aired, the finale for season 3 airing before 3 crucial episodes, one of which was chat blanc, chat blanc being spoiled to hell and back, and, well, when chat blanc first dropped, when the ml instagrams dropped (and when @buggachat got blocked by Adrien Agreste himself shortly after), the adricat day, and, on a more recent scale, when Alya found out Mari was Ladybug, when Mr. Pigeon 72 broke tumblr, when Optigami put the fandom into a theory frenzy, the luka reveal, and many, many more happy memories! 

The ml fandom on here has been a family to me for the longest. I joined this hellhole in middle school, and now Im writing this from my college dorm!! Many of the blogs i’ve looked up to and even chatted with for some time were run by people who were teens when I first joined, and now those people are in their 20s. We all grew up together, in a way, never leaving this rather dumpster fire of a show no matter how far from the age range we got, because it means so much to us. 

That’s what the fandom has done for me, but as for what I’ve given back, in a weird kind of way I feel like i’ve left both a decent amount of impact on the fandom and none at all. Every time I make shitposts about the new episodes or news or whatever, they always end up reaching a high amount of notes, which always makes me feel good in the moment because it means people find my random ranting and raving FUNNY, you know? I’m nowhere near a blog you can name off the top of your head when shouting out ml tumblr blogs, I don’t make art or write fan fic, im not known for making groundbreaking theories or analysis that take the fandom by storm,but I still manage to make a little lighthearted impact every now and again, and that’s all I need, ya know? 

You guys are amazing, and while everything in my life changes ml and this fandom never does. This show has brought me so much comfort and introduced me to so many people, so.... here’s to 6 years! Can’t wait to be with y’all for 6 more at the rate this is airing ;_)
