Buttercup

Did Adrien ever realize that Marinette was practicing her love confession to Buttercup, and that Buttercup is him? He finds out Marinette was in love with him in Elation. So he must be able to realize Buttercup = Adrien Agreste.

Hi hey hello. I've been watching Miraculous since September, and I just finished.

WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THIS FANDOM?

That finale was amazingly well-made. I definitely get why people were disappointed, but there's no way that's everything. The writers who made the rest of the season so good are not capable of writing something this confusing and unsatisfying, unless it's on purpose. This story isn't done.

There has been a lot of focus in the season on class dynamics, but in the last couple of episodes they really start bringing this theme of how people deal with power to the forefront

With Ladybug and Chat deciding not to do anything against Chloe because it's not their responsibility even though they have the power to do it, everything with Lila, the increasingly reckless and harmful ways Gabriel is manipulating people because he thinks he gets to decide what is good for others, Gimmi complaining that no one ever summons them to tell them anything good and only summon Gimmi to use Gimmi's power.

And the thing that brings it together: Marinette's speech right at the end, just before Gabriel makes the wish, when she says the power is only valid when it's used for the greater good of other people.

And then the statue of Gabriel. Right after all of this, a statue commemorating the man who refuses to use his power for the good of others. The dissonance is on purpose. This story is thematically incomplete, and I think the London special will finally wrap it all up.

What does the fandom come away from this talking about? How interesting this all is and wondering how it gets resolved? No. The fandom on the subreddit (and some of them on Tumblr) say "The villain won without consequences! This is bad writing!" and "Why is Marinette not telling Adrien he's a sentimonster?".

I just. How do you watch that and come away with your biggest concern being "Marinette didn't tell Adrien the truth"? How do you not see that it's so much bigger than that? That's not one dangling plot thread, we're looking at an unfinished garment and complaining that the edges are fraying.

And a good portion of the fandom cannot for the life of themselves see the loom and the people working it still going. I don't know how to stretch this metaphor any further, but I cannot believe that anyone would look at something so blatantly incomplete and still treat it like it's the entire picture. It's a microcosm of a bigger issue with the fandom, which is, as far as I can tell, that this fandom wants to watch a different show. Seasons 4 and 5 are so vastly different from seasons 1 and 2, and I think the people that came here to enjoy the first two or three seasons but hated the later ones are angry with the show for not following the traditional kinds of stories in the genre.

This show isn't trying to be an episodic or somewhat serialized story about love squares and middle school nonsense. It's a deep and varied exploration of what being a magical girl does to a 14 year old (in addition to many other things), and it's not pretty. The show is trying to say "this was terrible for everyone, and it shouldn't have happened, but it did, and here's how". And most people didn't want that, which is fair. But it doesn't mean the show is badly written, nor does it mean the writers hate certain characters. It pisses me off that a show this well made, with so much time and effort and care, is constantly dismissed as a badly-written, disorganized piece of crap that people only like ironically. Something this well made deserves a more neutral presentation to let people form their own opinions, and it deserve appreciation for the innumerable things it does well, especially in later seasons and the specials.

In summary, Miraculous isn't bad. A vocal part, maybe even the majority, of the fandom just wanted something else based on the first 3 seasons, and hasn't realized it because they're so devoted to hating on the show. And it deserves a much better reputation than it has.

THIS. SO MUCH THIS. This person understood the assignment! This is EXACTLY what I've been saying the whole time! There is SO much story left to tell! And it's deep, and it's dark, and it's exciting! I will hungrily gobble up every little crumb like I'm starving. There's a bigger picture here and always has been, and Y'all are hating on the pixelated thumbnail! Wait til the whole picture loads!

Everything I love about Migration

I love how Marinette says hi to all of her friends. She's very popular and loved by everyone.

Marinette made Kitty Section stickers! She's so creative! How does she have time to design on top of being Ladybug, a student, and friend to many? She has great time management skills.

Aww here's Luka making time for Marinette. Reminds me of the Lukanette days. They are still so cute together.

Adrien is blushing so much just by looking at Marinette! That is adorable. Also, Adrien is a musician on top of being a model, fencer, superhero. Both Adrien and Marinette are involved in so many different activities. I suspect Adrien likes playing music when he's with friends and playing what he wants to play, as opposed to playing music alone and to meet the high expectations of his father. After being lonely for a long time, he likes the community aspect of music.

This is a great reminder that whenever Adrien and Marinette have a cute moment together, it's also Ladybug and Chat Noir! They're so close and yet so far. Also Luka now has the perspective of the Miraculous fandom because he knows their identities.

Jagged Stone revealed to Luka that things with Penny are going well. And Penny revealed that she loves Jagged Stone. I'm so happy to hear that. I've always shipped them.

Again, good reminder that this is Marinette and Adrien, Ladybug and Chat Noir, and Maribug and Chatdrien.

Poor Luka, I've never seen him so rattled before. He's too pure for this world.

He broke his guitar to avoid telling Hawkmoth Ladybug and Chat Noir's identities. He broke his guitar! He loves music. And he tells Marinette that his guitar can't be fixed. What a powerful and selfless action.

Luka singles out Marinette from the rest of his friends as he's trying to protect them all from Hawkmoth. He tells her to hide in the cabin, giving her a place to transform. Because he knows she's Ladybug. This is cool.

Adrien/Chat Noir is so concerned about Marinette. He really loves her.

Again, Luka being helpful. He hilariously emphasizes "Chat Noir" to Adrien's face, and hides him in a closet so he can transform too. I wonder what Adrien's thinking here. Did he realize Luka knows who he is? Or does he have that expression because he's realizing being Chat Noir is the way he can help Marinette? I think it's the former, especially since Plagg appears beside him as soon as Luka puts him in the closet.

I love everyone's reaction to Juleka's singing. They look amazed, and somewhat stunned. It's a rare glimpse into Juleka's thoughts.

This moment was hilarious. Chat Noir throwing the rubber duck at the CD, and then the record being "quack quack quack". And the producer guy saying "wow, this one's a hit" after dismissing everyone else's heartfelt records? It made me laugh. Also, Chat Noir totally saved the day! If he hadn't intervened Ladybug or Luka could've revealed identities and that would be disastrous. Good quick thinking, Chat Noir!

I love that Chat Noir still makes jokes during Akuma fights. He's always so funny. The only thing that changed about him is he doesn't flirt with Ladybug anymore, so he seems more subdued compared to prior seasons. But I love that his humor never went away. Except for brief moments in Season 4, because he had some mental health struggles during that time (he was kept in the dark by Ladybug, felt useless, etc.). I'm glad that Chat Noir is back to being himself and has a bigger role in battles, like season 1. Also I love that Ladybug and Chat Noir can call each other whenever they want. It's such a useful feature.

Marinette knows that Luka knows she's Ladybug. I feel like Luka must love her even more with the knowledge she's Paris's amazing superhero, and I kind of feel sad for him.

To be continued...

Poor Chat Noir, tired from the fight. He works so hard.

It's so funny that Luka's record just kept repeating "I'll tell you all I know" without actually saying anything.

Only Luka knows this is Marinette and Adrien. He must enjoy seeing how their relationship dynamics are different depending on whether they're suited up.

The way Adrien looks at Luka knowing he knows he's Chat Noir. It's a look of gratitude and understanding. Adrien must feel so seen right now, because no one else knows he's Chat Noir. I wonder if he feels relief that someone knows all sides of him.

This family picture is heartwarming. Love how Jagged Stone's a better father now.
