Miraculous

Chapter 25: Back To Normal

(Now, the reaction crew and Crossover Characters walk through portals to their home dimensions, shouting farewells.)

MARINETTE: Bye! Thanks for everything! Come back anytime!

(The portals close. Marinette walks away with her friends.)

MARINETTE (V.O.): And so, things are back on track, the way they should be. I’m back with the people I can safely call my friends and family again, and I’m back in Françoise Dupont. Things have changed, of course. Chloé, Sabrina, and Lila have officially joined the friend group, and Lila, Mr. Agreste, and Ms. Sancoeur were sentenced to community service and are on probation until further notice. Also, Mayor Bourgeois made an announcement last week.

(Outside City Hall, André Bourgeois stands before the Parisians with the Miraculous and akuma heroes.)

ANDRÉ BOURGEOIS: (OVER MIC) With the power vested in me, this team will continue to work together as Team Miraculous, led by Marinette Dupain-Cheng.

(Everyone cheers for them.)

MARINETTE (V.O.): In other news, Adrien and I have started going out, and I have become a famous face on the city streets.

(Marinette crosses the street to the school. August’s mother passes behind her.)

AUGUST’S MOTHER: Hey, Marinette! Good luck on that test!

MARINETTE: Thanks, ma’am!

QUENTIN’S MOTHER: Excuse me, can my son have an autograph?

MARINETTE: Of course.

(With her pen, Marinette signs the paper.)

QUENTIN: Thanks, Ms. Marinette.

MARINETTE: Anytime.

MARINETTE (V.O.): I also stayed in touch with my new friends, finding out that Luna-TK has since gone on to have a baby with her husband. As for Mr. Agreste, Adrien and I found out what happened to Mrs. Agreste, and we agreed to let him revive her and restore Ms. Sancouer’s health, with the exchange being the aforementioned court sentence. And, no, the universe didn’t restart itself when the wish was made. Oh, and the Peacock Miraculous has been fixed, therefore, it’s safe to use.

(Nathalie puts on the Peacock Miraculous. Coming out of it, Duusu faces her.)

DUUSU: Hello again, Ms. Nathalie.

(Nathalie’s transformation sequence begins.)

NATHALIE: Duusu, spread my feathers!

(As Nathalie throws off her glasses, Duusu enters the brooch. It gains the colors of a peacock tail. Starting from her feet, Nathalie gains her blue dress and fuzzy collar, indigo tights and skin, and blue peacock tail hand fan, becoming Mayura.)

(Mayura lets a feather float into her hand and turns it into an Amok. It floats away and approaches a bear-like akuma hero.)

MAYURA: Hello. I am Mayura. Your Sentimonster will be your ally on this mission.

(In a cloud of purple smoke, another bear appears. Both bears approach a bank as a pair of robbers run out of it. The duo grab the robbers and pin them to the ground as the Miraculous heroes arrive.)

LADYBUG: Well done.

(The robbers are escorted into a police car and taken away. Now, in her room, Marinette climbs the stairs to her bed.)

MARINETTE: I’m just happy with where our lives are now. I went from normal girl with a normal life to class representative to hated in my class to global hero.

(She eyes her bulletin board full of photos of her friends.)

MARINETTE: Besides, as long as I have my friends by my side, what can go wrong?

(Marinette turns off the light above her bed, and she and Tikki go to sleep. Fade to black, ending the story. A message appears.)

In Loving Memory of Philece Sampler 1953 - 2021

It's been 7 years since Yuko Mizutani passed away, and yet whenever I watch the OG Digimon Adventure and Digimon Adventure 02, it sometimes hurts to hear Sora talk, specifically because I know that Yuko is gone. 😢 She's still deeply missed. And I just love this fanart of Sora gaining angel wings while Taichi (her best friend) and Yamato (her future husband) gently push her towards Heaven.

And, since Yuko died from breast cancer in 2016...

And Toshiko Fujita (the original voice actress for Taichi Yagami in Adventure, Adventure 02, and Xros Wars) also died from breast cancer in 2018...

And Kouji Wada (the singer who performed all of the opening theme songs and some of the closing theme songs and insert songs for Adventure, Adventure 02, Tamers, Frontier, Savers, Xros Wars, and Adventure Tri) died from nasopharynx cancer in 2016, a month before Yuko...

And Takanori Arisawa (the music composer for Adventure, Adventure 02, Tamers, and Frontier) died from bladder cancer in 2005...

All I can say is: FUCK CANCER.

Additionally, since I first started watching Digimon via the English dub, years before I had access to the original Japanese version, I personally want to acknowledge and commemorate the staff members of the English dub who have also passed away:

Paul Gordon (the music composer for the English dub of Adventure, Adventure 02, and Tamers) died from heart disease/heart failure in 2016.

Bob Papenbrook (who played various voice roles for the English dub of Adventure, Adventure 02, Tamers, and Frontier) died from chronic lung problems in 2006.

Mike Reynolds (the original English dub voice actor for Old Gennai in Adventure and Adventure 02, as well as a screenwriter for a few episodes of Adventure) died from undisclosed circumstances in 2022 (although, considering he was 92 when he passed away, it was most likely due to natural causes/old age).

Philece Sampler (the original English dub voice actress for Mimi Tachikawa and Iori Hida in Adventure, Adventure 02, and Adventure Tri, as well as a few smaller roles in Tamers, Frontier, and Savers, such as Alice McCoy and Nanami) died from a heart attack in 2021.

Robert Axelrod (the original English dub voice actor for Wizarmon and Armadimon in Adventure and Adventure 02) died from long-term complications from spinal surgery in 2019.

Michael Lindsay (the original English dub voice actor for Jou Kido and Greymon in Adventure and Adventure 02, as well as Gottsumon in Savers) died from undisclosed circumstances in 2019.

May you all rest in peace. 🙏

Happy late 70th posthumous birthday, Philece Sampler (July 16th, 1953 - July 1, 2021)

Today, or rather Yesterday, would've been Philece Sampler's 70th birthday had it not been for her heart attack-induced death 2 years prior on July 1st, 2021. Here's a list of her recognizable roles (most of which were replaced after her passing):

Mimi Tachikawa and Cody Hida - Digimon series (up until Last Evolution Kizuna, where Kate Higgins took over the role of the former)

Beauty - Bobobo-bo Bo-bobobo (personal favorite)

Older Toph Beifong - The Legend of Korra

Hiyori Tamura - Lucky Star

Taokaka - the BlazBlue series from Calamity Trigger to Chronophantasma (including the Alter Memory anime)

Mataro Mankanshoku - Kill la Kill

Taeko Minazuki - Ai Yori Aoshi

Lester Goldberg - Stanley

Sabine Cheng - Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noire (Season 1 to 4; Anne Yatco took over the role)

Mia and Niime - Fire Emblem Heroes (Anne Yatco would also take over the roles of the two characters)

----

A heartwarming fact is that one of her final roles according to her IMDb page was Lumber Jane from the Ba Da Bean episode "Secret Santa" (albeit under to pseudonym of "Robyn Weeks")

Thank you Philece Sampler, for being the voice of our favorite characters. May your soul rest in peace 🙏🕯
