Feligami haters just don't get it fr man 😔
I want a Feligami episode for s6 PLEASE
fav feligami interaction?
Gosh, that’s like asking me to choose between my children! 🥺 Only I don’t have children. And if I did, I’d love them less than even the shortest Feligami scene.
These two had me at “Wanna bet?” and every interaction since has been pure bliss. The Diamonds’ Dance was insane. The fan breaking was insane. The sewer speech was insane. The heart on Kagami’s window was insane. The fact that she told Felix about Ladybug was insane. The queer-coded speech at the end of the play was insane. The sunrise kiss was insane. All of Representation, really, was insane. The crumbs we got at the end of Recreation, paralleling yet contrasting the Adrigami scene back in Lies, were insane.
But I think I have to hand it (HA!) to the very end of Pretension:
Because this is the entire essence of their relationship encapsulated in a few frames! The devotion, the rule-breaking, the unconditional trust. The willingness to do morally unsound things to protect each other. The craving for freedom, the starving for someone to touch you gently. The fact that, while Felix hasn’t been shy about grabbing Kagami’s hand before, this time he is careful to offer, not take; that Kagami’s first real choice in her entire life is to choose him. Him. The implications of gifting someone a ring. Dear Duusu.
Felix gave Kagami her soul back, so she lets him hold it.
This scene means everything to me. It simultaneously healed my inner child and raised my standards. I want what they have or nothing —
watch me draw algerian Luka
we gotta make a trend out of this fr
so... guess what @bugstung based on this post
i think being american is so funny we are simple people
kaboom
People who don't like Adrien's new face just don't get it, he's giving androgynous, he's giving princess (quoting Marinette's grandmother), and I love it.
He also looks much more like his mom now. which I love so much since I like to headcanon that his father would often talk to him without looking at him bc he reminded him so much of Emilie.
As for the flat hair and wrinkled clothes, these are obviously temporary and a visual representation of Adrien's inability to move forward compared to the rest of his peers because of his father's passing. I can't wait for him to figure himself out, develop as a character, and get a makeover that will feel much more satisfying to see.
Is it obvious enough that I love Adrien/Chat Noir and that I'm obsessed with the Agreste family ?
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.
Do you have an ideas for a Shadybug and Claw noir version of Coccinelle and Lady noir?
It’s finally here!
They absolutely loath each other and refuse to work together. Ever.
managed to watch the new episode during my lunch break and I LOVED IT SO MUCH..... huge contender for best episode so far.... I mean not only was the animation gorgeous (all the new camera angles and lighting and even 2D effects!!!) but all the adrinette, the ladynoir moments showcasing their flawless teamwork, Adrien loving being a superhero, AND ALL THE SUBTLE CALLBACKS TO S1 E1..... im so happy rn i loved this episode so much. idk how to describe it but it felt like new and classic ml all wrapped in one perfect package. yay
im normal about these guys btw
this is so funny because i got this from myself putting something in my notes app (i do NOT remember) and was just like "yeah fuck it we ball"
Currently rewatching werepapas in french, and I noticed this detail about the lucky charms as well ! I think everything in this season is pointing out how Maribug is making bad decisions, and it's gonna turn against her at some point. Every episode that has been released until now is clearly showcasing this. Ngl all of this drama is making me fired up for this season ! I just hope they handle well the pay-off.
Let's talk about another detail that people kinda REALLY wanna ignore about Marinette's decision in the Werepapas akuma battle. It's the fact that she hand-waves away FIVE Lucky Charms until she finally goes with the sixth:
No, that is NOT irrelevant. Marinette is not supposed to disregard her Lucky Charms left and right because they're trying to tell her what she's supposed to do. That's Lucky Charm 101 in an akuma battle.
I'm not gonna pretend like I know for 100% certainty what they all tried to tell her, but
1) a couple of them can be easily interpreted in very relevant ways.
And 2) I don't NEED to know what exactly they all mean because it doesn't need to be PROVEN that Marinette isn't supposed to cherry-pick her Lucky Charms. We've known since s1 how this works and it's still done like this in s6. Thanks to not being limited anymore to 1 Lucky Charm, she gained the luxury of sometimes just getting to summon one for the purpose of whooping ass instead of solving the actual situation - which is still a lucky charm's REAL purpose - but that doesn't change the fact that you're supposed to listen to the Lucky Charm, not the Lucky Charm to you!
Under special circumstances like a final battle, sure, use additional ones to whoop ass. But you can't just switch out the problem solving Charm with a purely ass whooping one which is what Marinette did here in "Werepapas". It's fine when you do that in an extremely dire situation, but a normal akuma battle is no dire situation. Especially not when the only real stakes there are is being reckless with Adrien's amoks!
She's supposed to use whatever she gets and that'll lead her to the right solution. Not going through a whole line of Lucky Charms until she gets one where she finally likes the first thought she gets from it because of how little it challenges her self-preservation (makes you wonder if having unlimited Lucky Charms now isnt the worst thing that ever happened to her. Now she can just ignore whole Lucky Charms until she finally gets one that tells her something closer to what she wants to hear instead of listening to the CHARM)
Let's take a look at her 6 Lucky Charms:
From my recollection (so correct me if I'm wrong), while the teapot sometimes shows up here and there as filler Charms it was firmly established and used several times as a visual cue for Marinette to go to Master Fu.
Obviously, she can't do that anymore, but she has Alya as co-guardian, Luka who was trained by Su-Han, and even Su-Han himself as Celestial Guardian who now does whatever she wants.
In a situation where Adrien's amoks are the akuma object, it's a pretty logical thing to happen that her first Lucky Charm tells her to get Guaridan-related help. She has the option, all the needed support, and all the resources, but doesn't use it because it wouldn't be nice having to face the baggage that could come with it.
And even if you wanna say "She didn't get help because she didn't wanted the new Butterfly to possibly find out that Adrien is a Sentibeing!" Then that excuse still falls flat because obviously Adrien's LIFE is supposed to be more important than preventing that secret from coming out. The secret has no value if Adrien is DEAD.
Afterwards she gets a fan and this obviously could VERY likely mean that she's supposed to get Felix involved because he's the Miraculous holder of the Peacock. And by "VERY likely" I mean "I doubt there is a likely chance that it ISNT a hint to get Felix".
I won't even elaborate on this further. Her second Lucky Charm tried telling her to get Felix when Adrien's amoks were on the line and she ignored it. It is what it is.
For the third and fifth ones, I personally don't know what they could mean because I already struggle recognizing what exactly they are supposed to be. Though, they do have recognizable shapes. I bet other people could look at them and know where they've seen these objects before in the show.
Then right between these two, the fourth Charm Marinette summons is an unicycle (that for some reason isn't polkadotted, but screw it)
An unicycle like she summoned back in season 2 "Sabotis", the episode in which Alya became Rena Rouge for the first time. Meaning this one pointed to getting Rena's help.
For me, this is one of the most interesting ones regarding Marinette's feelings of not wanting to face the Lucky Charm's solution to instead protect all her secrets. But if anything, I would want to give it its own post and not half-ass it here. Cause there are a lot of layers to this one.
And, of course, the last one: the scarf. It's alongside the fan the one for which the fandom does casually acknowledge the symbolism of it being a call back to 1x01 "The Bubbler" where Marinette now infamously made the decision to let Adrien believe that it was his father who made the scarf for him - and not her - because of how happy it made Adrien that his father finally "cared":
I don't think I need to explain why it makes sense that this is the one s6 Marinette cherry-picks to finally work with. The poor scarf has been made into the symbol of Marinette wanting to keep pretty much everything about Adrien's family a secret from him. Including him being a Sentibeing. I miss the good old days when we dreamed of the scarf being set-up to become the catalyst for Adrien to write off his father as a useless deadbeat who isnt worth his time and love.
So, unfortunately, of course this is the one she goes with now. Even if it means taking the risk to kill Adrien. Anything to keep the secrets save and lies unnoticed. How tf did we GET here?
if y’all see this floating around: yes, it’s from me, and yes, you can find the original post on hoyolab under the same user <3
Just watched climatiqueen, so beware spoilers ahead !!
HOLY SHIT IT WAS PEAK OH MY GOD ??? The wait was 100% worth it !!
THE ANIMATION WAS SO GOOD, THE SPECIAL EFFECTS, EVERYTHING ?!!
THEY FINALLY MADE AN EPISODE FOCUSED ON ADRIEN ?! WITH HIS PERSPECTIVE ?! WE WON GUYS WE WOOON
First, the call back on the pancakes hurts so much. As I predicted, Adrien is really taking the grief hard and seems to be slowly constructing a more idealized version of his father in his mind. I mean, how could he not when everyone constantly presents Gabriel as a hero ? The future angst is gonna hit so hard guys
Also, would you believe me if I told you that I 100% imagined a montage of Adrien trying different things to find his passion ? The Adrinette moments were, as always, so precious 😭 I'll keep headcanoning Adrien as a litterature major just bc of this scene
Also, this girl on the left is 100% suspicious she talks exactly like Lila (telling Aurore that she would never lie and spread rumors about her friends to gain popularity which implanted that idea in her head). Call me crazy but HER TONE IN THIS SCENE IS EXACTLY LIKE LILA'S TELL ME I'M NOT CRAZY
AND FINALLY MY FAVORITE SCENE IT LOOKED SO GOOD !! AND LOOK HOW HAPPY AND FREE HE LOOKS I LOVE HIM !!😭😭
Too lazy too screenshot but I love how they introduced Sublime, I'm so happy that Adrien gets to have a friend of his own, who's not from Marinette's group but also not a love rival of some sort. Maybe she's gonna be more important in the future who knows 👀👀
