But also? What anime is this? I did not expect the kwamis to have a different form. And I especially did not expect Plagg and Tikki to be halves of one kwami. But it makes perfect sense now. They’re quite literally each other’s other half. And I’m glad they stay adorable for most of the show. Their true forms are a little creepy.
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.
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.
Abuse is a difficult topic to accurately depict, especially within the confines of a children’s show. That is why I am incredibly impressed with the writing of the New York Special.
Chloe is possibly the character that the fandom is the most divisive on. On the one hand, she has potentially the worst experiences of abuse and she has what looks like the setup of a redemption arc but on the other hand, she is so nasty that it’s hard to like her.
The characters are from a range of different ethnic backgrounds, they have vastly different body shapes and vastly different personalities. This show represents actual people rather than cardboard cutouts of the ideal Eurocentric person.
