#déflagration spoilers

I have a new favorite ladrien moment.

When Adrien ripped the Miraculous de la Coccinelle from Monarque’s ears and passed them to Bikerbug, and Monarque looked back and saw it was his own son who’d defeated him. When Ladybug returned in her full glory.

This is what I wanted from ladrien. This is beautiful.

The betrayal in Monarque’s eyes as all his abuse comes back to bite him, his son in Ladybug’s corner. The trust and unity Ladybug and Adrien have built in every side of the love square helping them utterly overwhelm their enemies.

Correct me if I am wrong (APPROPRIATELY THOUGH), but regarding the "Civilian Marinette gets slammed into concrete wall by Monarque to the point where the WALL breaks but somehow Marinette is still fine" in Déflagration, I do remember now that people are bringing it up that back when I read the leaks these two times that Kwamis Choice was described very differently in it.

I guess watch out, 100% outdated leak spoilers or maybe even not entirely correct memories of mine ahead? For this episode you already saw because it aired?

Zoe was Sole Destroyer + Kwami power of destruction (which makes ALOT more sense), Monarque had his own Lucky Charm (which is also something I found sad didn't happen in Canon) but most importantly, I swear to God I believe remembering that the initial Lucky Charm created by Tikki WAS the Ladybug-disguise suit with which Marinette could return into battle even without her Miraculous.

Cause I remember reading what Tikkis lucky charm is and immediately going "yeah that makes sense, that's how Marinette gets into battle" and that definitely wouldn't be the case if it had been a bin. So I do believe the initial Lucky Charm was a suit which is probably the reason why the wall-slamming moment is a thing in the first place.

Initially the magical lucky charm suit probably WAS supposed to be the explanation for why Marinette can endure that as civilian (which in my opinion would have been a perfectly fine explanation, I can work with a magical lucky charm suit) but then at some point Kwamis Choice got a massive rewrite and now we have a couple of awkward leftover elements of the old version that feel off in Canon (like Chloé for some reason getting akumatized into ZOÉ'S akuma form. Switch-arounds like that normally do not happen).

Of course the wall-slamming moment is the worst offender in this regard cause holy SHIT that should have killed civilian Marinette 10 times over! The show is normally pretty consistent with not overpowering civilian characters or making them realistically vulnerable in comparison to the Miraculous Holders ect, so that moment didn't just break every bone in Marinette’s body, it also broke LONG established world building.

I do wonder what caused this massive rewrite though and why old moments like this were still kept despite of not making sense anymore. The initial script also seemed to have been a stronger story, especially Zoe/ Kitty Noire wise.

#SublimationIsWar : la guerre est déclarée

Annoncée de longue date et préparée dans le plus grand secret, l'opération #SublimationIsWar a débuté le 6 août dernier avec une première offensive qui a pris l'exigeant public de Sublimation par surprise. Une deuxième déflagration, sobrement baptisée #SublimationIsWar 2, a retenti la semaine suivante et achevé de definir son concept : celui d'un éclectisme ne répondant à aucune forme de contraintes.

Attention spoiler : la suite de l'article présente la playlist de la mixtape numéro 1.
