The Miraculous Movie was different than the series…and that’s okay!
I watched the movie this morning and loved it! I think it’s important to talk about the changes that were made and what impact they had.
Tumblr media
How the characters were rewritten
There definitely was a difference in how the characters were written in the movie, and some of the redevelopment of characters was really good!
Gabriel was by far the one who had the best redevelopment of his personality. Gabriel in the series is awful, as we all know.
In the series, he barely gives a shit about his own son, like there is absolutely nothing redeemable about his character. In every “what if” episode and the season 5 finale, Gabriel does not show any regret to hurting people, including his own son.
However, in the movie, Gabriel actually makes a better attempt to communicate with Adrien and, most importantly, feels strong regret when he hurt his son. He cries; he feels remorse for destroying Paris and injuring Adrien in the process. He hugs Adrien (along with the spirit of Emilie 🥹) and decides to stop being Hawk Moth. It was beautifully done. He got a redemption arc that he never got in the series. I know I personally felt so good watching that and seeing the relationship between him and Adrien being repaired.
Tumblr media
Marinette was her usual clumsy self, but was written as having no friends at school because she embarrasses herself so much. In a way, it makes more sense than her being so popular like she is in the series. Kids in high school can be pretty judgy and ruthless. So it makes sense for the “clumsy girl” to be made fun of and judged by people who don’t know her well.
Adrien was different in a lot of ways. He wasn’t shown running to school to gain freedom. He wasn’t introduced as being a super model who’s friends with Chloe. Instead, he’s already going to the school, he’s already friends with Nino, and he happens to run into Marinette at the library. He doesn’t have that same chemistry with Marinette as he does in the series which is a bit odd that they took that away, but it does make sense that he’d turn her down when she asked him to the ball, since he loves Ladybug. In the movie, he very clearly sees Marinette as just a friend and it’s shown that he’s building a friendship with her without him developing a crush. It’s different but still wholesome, especially when he shows her the old family photo to her. Plus, it evens it out well since Ladybug obviously turns Cat Noir away but they’re still building up their bond, too. They both get turned down.
It was ehhh that Adrien was a bit too cocky at times as Cat Noir, but overall, his goofiness and self confidence is still pretty on brand for him. He was still very encouraging towards Ladybug but not overly flirtatious, pushing her to her limits. Instead, it was them lightly teasing each other and then playfully fighting. And, speaking of the playful fighting, their bond was stronger in the movie seeing as how they were shown spending more time together off duty and that they were treated as equals.
In the show, Cat Noir is automatically made sidekick and left in the dark about everything. But in the movie, he gets to meet Master Fu in disguise alongside Ladybug. Sure, he didn’t help Master Fu with his cane like he did in the series, but that didn’t matter since the lore was changed.
Alya was less annoying in the movie. Sorry. Don’t get me wrong, I love Alya in the series, but she’s so over the top at times with how obsessed she is over the heroes, blogging, and filming things for her blog. In the movie, she was toned down a lot and I liked that. It was also cute that Nino had a crush on her and just her, not Marinette first. Unlike the series, he wasn’t on that pipeline of guys who fell for Marinette since that pipeline doesn’t exist in the movie.
Tom was made out to be an embarrassment for Marinette which is honestly more realistic for a teenager. Most teenagers get pretty embarrassed by their parents, especially when they still treat them very childlike. And, I like that he went out to the fair to look for her since he heard there was danger. Marinette’s parents don’t usually go out to look for her or make sure she’s in her room when there’s danger afoot. So, I appreciate that they made Tom do that since he obviously loves Marinette a lot.
The rewriting of (some of) the lore
As I had mentioned in my previous section, the lore was rewritten, too. Instead of Master Fu being the one to pick Marinette and Adrien simply because they helped him, the kwamis sense that Marinette and Adrien are the right people to be Ladybug and Cat Noir. That was a much better way to write that, in my opinion.
Hawk Moth got ahold of the butterfly miraculous by mistake. That part wasn’t changed but also, it didn’t need to be.
The change of plot
The plot was very simple. It didn’t have a whole lot of crazy, in depth details like the show’s does. So, anyone who has never watched the show can easily understand and absorb what’s going on (I will be forcing my boyfriend to watch it with me since he’s never seen the show lol).
I like that it was very clear cut and easy to understand while still being intense and meaningful. It still summarizes a lot of what the series entails while fixing some issues in the plot development.
They didn’t doddle with Hawk Moth like they do in the show. He was a successful villain in his second attempt but then realized he should stop when he hurt his own son in the process.
Also, there was a reveal. It was a wee bit underwhelming, but I still think it was done well! It was a moment with just Marinette and Adrien alone, as it should be. And, it was cutesy and heartfelt. The fact that Marinette dressed like Ladybug for the ball (cutest dress ever imo) and Adrien dressed like Cat Noir was so cute. That’s what a lot of the fandom has been asking for and written about in fanfics, I feel like.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The romance between these two is most important. They didn’t need Kagami and Luka as 2nd love interests to throw things off track. Yes, I like these characters in the show, but they weren’t needed in the plot.
The music
I love musicals. I was a bit of a theater kid in high school, plus I’m obsessed with music lol. So, yes, I’m a bit biased when I say I love that they made this a musical.
I personally loved the music. I can tell a lot of good effort was put into it and I’ve already been listening to the songs on my Spotify. The song between Ladybug and Cat Noir in the theater “Now I See” and Cat Noir jumping on the clouds (literally, on cloud nine) singing “My Lady” was absolutely adorable and super romantic, which, as we know, is a big part of the show.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Even Gabriel’s song “Chaos Will Reign Today” was amazing! It conveyed a lot of emotion and turns into one of those dramatic villain songs. Keith Silverstein is clearly talented enough to sing for his own character and he did it well.
My only nitpick is that Marinette’s singer, Lou, has a very different voice than Christina Vee. So, Marinette sounds very different, much more mature-sounding when she sings and it kinda catches you off guard. I’m surprised they didn’t have Christina sing for her, but there must’ve been a reason why she didn’t. But, SQVARE sounded similar enough to Bryce Papenbrook when he sung for Cat Noir which i absolutely love.
Conclusion
I personally give this movie a 10/10 just because it made me smile the whole time, and it’s such a feel good movie. I’ll happily watch it again and listen to the soundtrack, especially on a day when I’m feeling down. It wasn’t perfect in every aspect, but it was perfect in a simple, heartwarming sense and that it can be watched by everyone, not only people who watch the series.
I understand if it made you cringe or you were moreso looking for a continuation of the series not a retelling. But, I prefer some simplicity which is a big part of what made me like it. Like I said, I know it wasn’t absolute perfection, but it was so frickin adorable and I can’t help but smile.
There’s a lot of differences but also plenty of similarities between the movie and the show. But understand they’re not meant to be the same and that’s okay! I don’t think the movie was horrible for most of the changes it made. In fact, I think most of them made sense and made it a bit more realistic (as I explained).

Toon Time Theater Brings You U-PICK Poll No.7!
Salutations, anime fans. This is Gabriel Ramos, DJ and live-streamer of Toon Time Theater. I heard that the upcoming UZUMAKI will have Saturday premieres on Toonami, but I have a poll up my sleeve. I am concerned about what to live-stream on Saturday mornings. You have these outcomes to vote for, and the top result determines tomorrow's lineups, also affecting the weekends following it.
Saturday morning UZUMAKI (lag)
Sunday morning UZUMAKI (no lag)
EDEN
THE KING OF FIGHTERS: ANOTHER DAY
.hack//Liminality (may pre-empt a program)
CASTLEVANIA (Season 1)
Pokémon Origins
LARRYBOY: The Cartoon Adventures (E/I)
You have until September 27 at 2 PM PDT to make your choices. When the time comes, I will end the T3 Express peepshow and review the poll results and reveal the lineups before I live-stream SAILOR MOON.
If most of you vote for Sunday morning UZUMAKI, then I will end T3 Express after the poll and move most of its programming to the Saturday Morning Animation Cram Session (More One Night for Japanese late-night viewers). Not only that, I will introduce T3 Essentials, the Sunday morning replacement for T3 Express that focuses on cartoons which I deem "essential" to my weekend cartoon block live-streams. Most of the programs will be carried over from the previous SMACS (M1N) lineups, giving (American and Canadian) Sunday morning viewers a short-but-satisfying lineup just in case they miss out on the Saturday morning lineup.
---
Anime fans, if this is your first time seeing this post, this is because I run a series of weekend anime blocks on the New Gabe Order Twitch channel, Toon Time Theater. My purpose of Toon Time Theater is to showcase the latest and greatest of action-packed animation on Saturday mornings at a time where modern Saturday morning cartoon blocks on FCC-controlled over-the-air TV stations no longer exist in today's world.

I didn't know this about Bryce's father. Knowing he's going to be honoring him, in one of my childhood favorite movies, I feel like my heart is going to burst! 🥺❤️

if i had a nickel for every time there was a CGI animated series for kids starring Bryce Papenbrook as a teenaged deuteragonist and main protagonist’s love interest and Keith Silverstein as the grown ass man of a main antagonist, I would have two nickels.
It’s not a lot, but boy it’s sus that it’s happened twice.

I love recognising voice actors like "Wait a second... is that you Cristina Vee/Alejandro Saab/Bryce Papenbrook?"
Like I start a new game and they're just staring me directly in the eyes. I start a new anime and they're watching me sleep. I go onto YouTube and CyYu is streaming. You can never escape the voice actors.

This is just all for fun, don't take it seriously. I mean, Andrew did an amazing job voicing Veneer. I just used his Adrien/Cat Noir voice since that's I can imagine of it

Guys i have come across cursed knowledge. recently i went to a local comic convention and Bryce Papenbrook (VA of Cat Noir, Caesar Zeppeli, Inosuke, Meliodas, and lots of others those are just the ones im most familiar with) had a booth where he was doing meet and greets and autographs. (My partner got a cat noir painting signed!)
Anyway as a JJBA fan, naturally i said hi and thanked him for his work and all the beloved characters he's brought to life and mentioned how i was a huge fan of jojos, especially part 2.
Now, idk if this is common knowledge already or not, but when i brought up Caesar, he told me where the inspiration for his silly little accent came from.
Guys. It was a Family Guy episode. Some episode (i wont even try to find iut which because theres SO FUCKING MANY) with an italian man doing a very goofy accent. And Bryce naturally seems like a very goofy kind of guy, so apparently he saw this character and decided to BASE CAESAR ON HIM. Caesars voice is SUPPOSED to be that silly and its based on a one-off Family Guy bit.
WHAT DO I DO WITH THIS INFORMATION????

nagito’s va was in a cat food commercial and it’s surreal because i swear i’ve seen it on tv as like an ad before
bro bryce papenbrook is actually everywhere bro he's been around in almost everything i've liked at least a little bit. Like, he's the voice of Nagito, he voiced the tiger in palace pets, he voices Eren, He voices Silver the Hedgehog, he voices Adrien, he voices INOSOUKE?? It'z really funny to me I'm sure knowing me it won't be long until I end up seeing the ad too.
