I can agree that Kwami’s choice pretty much swung and missed about introducing an adrinette-centered arc in favor of ladynoir.
(it has some really fantastic adrinette lines though)
but like. ladynoir is on another level to me. there’s little that could touch that level of intimacy and something that essentially ties them together, their miraculous and duty, but there’s respect and admiration at the baseline for both of them. and they go beyond the necessary job description, and learned so much from each other.
so yeah anyway. to me, ladynoir is this beautiful, secretive yet trusting relationship, and any way you slice it to me, they care about each other. like, I think their talk in the beginning of Perfection is so sweet.
she asks him if his girl loves him back. he asks if she told her guy how she feels. their two biggest problems!!!! they care about each other so much.
