I’M SCREAMING

[gingerbread-qwq]

Do yall ever think about how the show takes place over a few months? I think about that dayly and how it makes literally no sense..

Like i get quick friendship but Chat Noir and Ladybug are a bond of like 3 years. Same with Marinette and Alya, honestly they act like childhood friends more. The only ones that act appropriately for how long theyve known eachother is Nino and Adrien. And youre telling me Marinette is *that* obsessed over Adrien after a month or 2??

Its not just relationships either its hawkmoth and the city too. Most of the time it feels like an issue going on for years but then we find out that theyre barely done with the first quarter? Wtf?? Like dont get me wrong i dont want paris under brutal attack by this crazy old man everyday for 3 years but like, it definitely couldve been paced *way* better.

Like he attacks sparsly at first and then after a bit it gets more common and then mayura is added in and then hes like doubling up attacks every day. Or y'know they actually defeat Hawkmoth in a timely manner instead of dragging it out for 5 seasons. Idk im just rambling atp

“Consider me pressured,” he says, plucking a cigarette from the carton and placing it between his lips. He gestures for the lighter in her lap.

“Well, don’t smoke just because I said so,” she says. “It’s not a good habit to start.”

“It’s a habit I already have,” Adrien says, his lips pulling sheepish around the cigarette that he’s artfully dangling at the edge of his mouth. “I’m just letting you pressure me into it again.”

“As long as it’s not your first,” she says, leaning forward and cupping one hand around the end of his cigarette, using the other to flick the lighter on.

His golden eyelashes brush his cheekbones as he inhales. “It would’ve been a pleasure to have you as my first,” he murmurs, looking up at her as smoke curls out from his lips.

from chapter 13 of my fic greatest hits :)<3

Lila, Felicity (Felix, she’s transfem in my au), & Sabrina! (Ik Volpina isn’t an actual miraculous user but it’s the closest I had to one at least until chrysalis’ design is revealed 💋)

déjà vu

[cameforthecat]

Listen the thing about the final is, even if they are planning this big "This is the Bad Place" moment later and they are going to "reveal" that Gabriel was a monster all along... This is still a show aimed at children. Now I dont know much about kids and I don't want to treat them as dumb, but I just don't feel like most kids will get the nuance to know that Gabriel was still the bad guy the whole time? That he was NOT actually redeemed? If even WE were confused by the show's intention then it seems really likely that a lot of kids will watch it and take it at face value thinking "oh so this makes up for the bad things Gabriel did, hes good now" and that's just not a message I want anyone to internalize. I might be able to get excited about this subtle psych horror plot if this was a show actually intended for me, but even if there's a big adult audience there's an even bigger kid one. Saying that they are going to fix things in season 6 doesn't change what they did here, and how many kids just catching this on their local cartoon channel might never see the fix? I don't know, personally I just don't feel like teaching kids bad principles so that you can dramatically reveal they were bad principles later doesn't seem like a good idea. I WANT to imagine that every little 7-year-old watching was screaming "No!! Bad man! They shouldn't make him a statue! He's bad!" at their tv but... did they?

Okay! My honest opinion on "Miraculous World: Paris"?

It was AMAZING!!!!

Lot's of action, some funny moments, very emotional and lots of tension!

One thing I especially love is how the Special wastes absolutely no time with getting straight into the action!

Something I hate about many movies is how they just waste so much time setting up the plot that by the time it finally gets to the good stuff, half the movie is already over!

The writers really have my respect for not doing that here! After the opening, they waste no time and immediately get straight to the actual plot!

Another thing i really love about the special is the way they handled Shadybug and Claw Noir!

I kept saying that Shady and Claw have the potential to become the best Miraculous villains ever, even if they get redeemed, and as far as I'm concerned, i was totally right about that because these two are officially my favorite Miraculous villains!!! 🖤

[WARNING!! SPOILERS AHEAD!!!]

For one, I love villains like Shadybug who are driven by a desire to not be hurt anymore!

I felt so bad for her when she cried while reading Marinette's diary! 😢

And I found it so touching how she first acted cold and rude towards Sabine but quickly backtracked on her attitude, when Sabine continued to speak kindly to her!

It showed that Shadybug wished she'd have a loving mother like that and she'd actually be grateful for it!

I am truly touched by how vurnerable she looked throughout that entire scene!

💔💔💔

🖤And I absolutely love how sassy and unhinged Claw Noir is!🖤

The guy freaking cataclysmed himself ON PURPOSE FOR NO APPEARANT REASON!!

At least I can't think of a reason why he did that! And even while cataclysmed, he still managed to put up one heck of a fight throughout the entire special!!

And It's very interesting how his motivation is a lot like Monarch's, but at the same time not!

Claw Noir does want his mother back, but he seems more hurt by the fact that his father doesn't seem as upset as he is!

Although it's not that hard to read the signs that Shadyverse!Gabriel infact is impacted by his wife's death!

If I had to guess, it looks very much like Claw THOUGHT his father easily moved on and continued to focus on his work as a fashion designer and forgot about Emily, while what he was really doing was using the butterfly miraculous to create superheroes and trying to stop the Supreme, most likely to create a safe world for their son!

I also love how both Shady and Claw wear different masks to hide their sadness : Shadybug acts cold and unfeeling while Claw Noir is more outgoing and unhinged! Claw is basically that one character who is a little b*tch but is just too charismatic to hate!

[SPOILERS OVER]

There might've been a few things I had hoped to see in the special that weren't there, but that's okay because a lack of one or two good possible elements is still better than the presence of multiple bad elements — which mind you was NOT present in this special at all!

The show often has some moments that really made me cringe, but I couldn't find a SINGLE bad moment in this special!

[SPOILERS]

So the fact that we didn't get much personal father-son drama between Batterfly and Claw Noir (Which was justified since, contrary to what i assumed, they don't know each others secret identities) or the fact that neither CelesteCat's white suit and hair nore Claw Noir's giant Cataclysm triggered Ladybug's Chat Blanc PTSD (because we don't talk about this enough in Season 5) don't bother me much!

My worries about Ubiquity, despite being featured heavily in promotional material, barely appearing in the actual special (because she only had one appearence in all the trailers) were also put to rest! Even though Alya isn't Ubiqity for long at first, she still gets turned back into her a few times! Giving her enough screentime that I see no reason to get mad over her being promoted so much even though she doesn't actually stick around throughout the entire special!

[SPOILERS END]

Whoever says this show lost it's touch should definetly watch this!

Which is another little meta detail I really love in this special :

'Hope' is a central theme in the special, and it was so good that it also gave me hope that the show can return to it's former glory!

Despite a lot of controversy surrounding the show for quite a while now, this special proves that, just like Shadybug, Claw Noir and Batterfly's world, the show itself can also still be saved!

Realizing how close we are to the end of the year and how much art I haven't posted????? Here's some sketches from this summer/fall that were me art directing the Ladybug PV as if it were more SpiderVerse-y

[booksandpaperss]

the real tragedy of miraculous ladybug isn’t how bad it is it’s how good it is while still being really bad

[ozzo-the-wozzo]

just watched the season 5 finale w my friend on discord and then proceeded to go into an intense discussion on a Truman Showish scenario that I know won’t happen where the world we see is Adrien is trapped in some sort of strange dream bubble where his memories of his father are altered as per his wish and he slowly but surely discovers the truth and tries to escape and snap people out of it and now I’m thinking too hard

Miraculous Ladybug

s3 ep 2, Animaestro

[chaosplatypus]

I love scrolling through VA’s wikis to see how many characters from my favorite media are voiced by the same person!

[dantes-number-1-fanboy]

Finally! Here is the list of all the characters in my Miraculous Ladybug x Mystreet au that hold Miraculous'!

Bug: Aphmau -Ladybird

Cat: Aaron - Korat

Fox: Laurence. - Reynard

Turtle: katlyn. - Loggerhead

Bee: Lucinda. - Honey Bee

Snake: Zane. - Cobra

Monkey: Blaze. - Aye Aye

Horse: Garroth. - Cob

Dog: Travis. - Shepherd

Dragon: Dante - Hydra

Mouse: Nana. - Pinky

Peacock: Michi. - Azura

Butterfly: Ein. - Glasswing

Alot of these are subject to change but for now these are the ones they hold and what their hero name is.

Notes:

We're going with some of the shows here where ein is a villian w/ the butterfly with Michi as his sidekick. For the most part i want this to be seperate from both plots but sometimes its easier to follow along.

Aaron and Aphmau are "endgame" but that doesnt mean anything. Ill disclose more as time goes on.

[fictional-musician-competition]

Announcing...the Fictional Musician Competition!

Yeah, I'm finally hopping on this trend and making a bracket. And what do we need? A fictional musician bracket! There are a lot of fictional characters who play instruments, and I'm pitting them against each other.

Rules

Characters must be shown to play at least one instrument with either proficiency or dedication. Sorry, this does mean characters who only sing are not eligible. Maybe I'll do a singer smackdown after this.

This is a tournament of characters, not bands. Feel free to submit characters that play in bands, but submissions for a whole band or musical group will be ignored.

No real people

Feel free to submit multiple characters from the same media, but be aware that I will be starting off the competition with a pre-tournament round to bring each media to one character who will make it to the main bracket.

Characters who've beenautomatically included due to favoritism: Raine Whispers August Flynn Marceline/Jake the Dog* Luka Couffaine *They'll be going against each other in the pre-tournament

ANYWAYS HERE'S THE LINK MAY THE BEST MUSICIAN WIN
