So Adrien Texting Like A Boomer Is 100% Canon

Just rewatched Revelator but in french, and holy shit I'll never say enough how much I LOVE the french dub. Maybe it's because it's the one I grew up with but it always hits hard (and the cat puns were always better in french norry not sorry). Watching without the subtitles felt like a whole other experience.

Like hearing Marinette saying Adrien makes her melt in this dub, and the conversation between Alya and Marinette feels much more powerful !

Also hearing "Miraculous Chat Noir" feels unreal. Btw, I don't get why people think that Chat Noir's power is only abt erasing memory ? From what I understand, it can destroy any damage that has been done by an akuma, while Ladybug's power allows her to restore things to their past state.

I gotta make fanart of this episode. It's one of my favorites so far 😭 I just never commit to finishing anything I've started lol

adrien being reminded constantly of his fathers heroic sacrifice. adrien believing that monarch murdered his father the one fight chat noir wasn’t there. the guilt chipping away at him slowly but surely. the disparity between the authoritarian father he knew vs the martyr the entirety of paris now eulogizes. all of paris being compassionate towards him for the wrong reasons. the overwhelming support that has trapped him in a narrative sanitized to the point of being a heinous lie. he’s alone in his company. there’s nothing he can do about it.

makes me sick

WOW

the parallels between adrien/ivan hit hard omg

me with every 2010s show/anime I've ever watched tbh

accidentally stumbling upon something you used to love and finding you still feel the same way about it

Marinette & Friends

God this man continues to piss me off even when he's dead

In the light of the very recent episode I think we as the fandom must understand now that Gabriel telling Marinette to "make sure that Adrien remembers him as a good father" was specifically just so Adrien would continue his last will more willingly as the new Monarch by making everyone singing Gabe's praises taking away his blame while also setting up everyone who knows the truth as liars so Adrien can channel his anger through them and not him with him no longer being present too. Gabriel specifically set Marinette up to fight her own boyfriend and end their romance while still extending his control over Adrien. Damn what a douchebag

yes nathalie is the adult in the situation and IS the one that should be held responsible for telling adrien the truth etc. (like. i mean i personally hold her the most responsible.) but i think also there’s something to be said for the fact that marinette has been outsmarting nathalie’s every move for the last year or so~ despite nathalie throwing her entire life into her efforts. like. there’s something to be said for how nathalie knows ladybug has and can prevent her from doing what she wants to do. and nathalie’s whole history of supervillainy is probably not doing wonders for trusting her own judgement over ladybug’s. and this isn’t me defending nathalie i’m just saying the power differential here is so strange. in some ways it makes sense that nathalie is bowing to the convictions of a 15 year old girl. even if nathalie knew that telling adrien the truth was what was best for him, is there a part of her wondering if marinette would even let her? marinette has led an entire superhero career consisting of not letting nathalie do what she wants to do. nathalie is adrien’s guardian. and marinette is the guardian of the miraculous. and adrien is a boy made from miraculous magic. marinette is acting as the ultimate authority here despite being the child, and it kind of makes sense why nathalie is letting her.
