Miraculous Ladybug Season 5 Is Everything I Didn’t Know I Wanted

I don’t think season 4 and 5 would’ve been this enjoyable if it came earlier. We’re obsessed because we had to wait years for this. And season 4 absolutely blew my mind. There was actual character development that lasted. There were actual consequences for the mess ups. And it all ended with Marinette losing every single miraculous except her own.

Disenchanted: The New Frozen 2

Making a sequel of an iconic family movie over a decade later is asking for criticism. Disenchanted will never be treated as nicely as the original. It’s the unfortunate part of being a die hard hard, it’s hard to sometimes turn that loyalty off and just enjoy a movie for what it is.

The Love Square Reversal Is The Best Thing To Happen To Miraculous Ladybug

The Love Square is one of the most unique and iconic aspects of Miraculous Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir. It’s actually my favourite part of this show and the reason why I watch every episode I can access, regardless of how infuriating some of them are.
