Can We All Agree That Gloob's Recent Trailer Is Really Depressing ?

2022.

What a shocking year.

I mean,we have another war happening in Europe,inflation,climate change and........

UNGODLY amount of Miraculous leaks.

So,I hope that in 2023,there will be peace,prices goes down,climate disaster can be averted and......

NO.MORE.LEAKS!(and also out of order realeases)

HAPPY NEW YEAR,EVERYONE!

Goodbye,2022.

Hello,2023!

Що по русні?

Ok.For this one,I have to(kinda)agree on Thomas.He's(kinda)right about this thing.

CLIMATE CHANGE IS REAL.

If you want to go to the space,at least pay your workers/employees first,Jeff.You're the richest man in the world but you still being a dick by not providing a good and efficient working environment to your workers.

So, unsurprisingly, Thomas Astruc who claims he doesn't like to discuss politics on his Twitter and only wants to discuss Miraculous Ladybug with fans on there is talking about Mega Leech + climate change and how he "predicted greenwashing."

I'm tired.

Really, Astruc lucked out here. How else can you explain an episode about environmentalism airing right around the same time former Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos went to space for no real reason other than to look cool in front of the other billionaires? 

Now because of this sheer coincidence, Astruc can gloat about how smart he is like he knows everything, including how to solve climate change.

I knew it was a trap since 'Gabriel Agreste' lol.

WAAAIIIT.

Felix has FAKE MIRACULOUS?!

GABRIEL STILL TRANSFORMED!!!

So, Collusion.

I have something to say regarding Chloe.

Chloe has launched a coup d'etat on Paris.

Chloe, a teenager and the mayor's daughter, launched a coup d'etat on Paris!

How was that possible?!

Seriously, how was it possible for a teenager to launch a power grab on a city?!

Omg, I'm speechless.

The city of Paris is now under the dictatorship of Chloe Bourgeois.

Anyway, what's your opinion on this? (I hope you can throw a joke on this one.)

So...., I just watched Gloob's recent trailer on Twitter(even though it might be a little bit early because they'll be back in June) and....... the first thought that's coming to my mind after watching the trailer was,

'Da fuck did I just watch?! What did I just watch?

Like.....the fuck just happened?

Anyway, what are your thoughts about the trailer? Let me know in the comments below.

Thomas,if you don't make Marinette/Felix(even though I don't like him)/anyone(who wasn't akumatized yet) in this show akumatized,I might tied and glued myself in the French Embassy in KL or go to Paris at your workplace.(That just my idea)

That's my act to protest among other things is the issue that surrounding the ML fandom rn.

#9: “Ladybug can't be akumatized because I said so!”

In the past three seasons of Miraculous Ladybug, Marinette has been through a lot. In addition to struggling to convey her feelings to Adrien, she has also fought several supervillains on a weekly basis, been subjected to all kinds of humiliation, and has had her friendships tested thanks to Lila’s lies. Despite all of this stress, Marinette still hasn’t akumatized, though she came close in the episode “Ladybug” (Hawkmoth was forced to abort his plan at the time). But because she was so close to becoming an Akuma, fans naturally wondered if this was only a taste of what was to come.

So someone on Twitter raised the question if Marinette would ever actually be akumatized. By this point, you can guess how Astruc responded.

As usual, despite being polite in the way this person phrased their tweet, Astruc acts like they’re being ridiculous to even suggest something like that. And honestly, I’m surprised this tweet hasn’t gotten more criticism from the Miraculous Ladybug fandom. Like, I think it’s up there with the stuff he says about Chloe, it’s that bad.

I mean, how can any writer say something like “That’s a difference between an idea and a story” with a straight face? The difference between an idea and a story is that a story is simply an idea fully realized. That’s it. This is like saying there’s a difference between a recipe and an apple pie. One’s still a page in a cookbook, the other is for dessert at Thanksgiving dinner because someone followed the recipe from said cookbook.

At the same time, Astruc barely explains why Marinette getting akumatized wouldn’t work. What does he even mean when he says to think about when Hawkmoth talks to Marinette? Does he think she’ll immediately hand over her Miraculous to him before going after Cat Noir? Does he think Cat Noir isn’t able to stop Marinette should she get akumatized? What is he trying to say here? It’s not like someone with a Miraculous can’t be akumatized.

Someone brought up the fact that not only has Cat Noir been akumatized (As well as Carapace, Rena Rouge, and Queen Bee), but since the Rabbit Miraculous has the power of time travel, they really aren’t bound by anything, especially since the whole plot of “Cat Blanc” was that Bunnix helped to undo the timeline where he was akumatized.

And what does Astruc say in response to this? You won’t believe it. The lack of self-awareness is purely mind-blowing here.

Yes. He actually claims that his show isn’t just spinning its wheels by doing the same thing over and over again. How can he think something like this, when he literally had two separate episodes in Season 3 that were about Marinette and Adrien figuring out each other’s identities and then undoing that massive plot development by the end? Are you telling me that isn’t deceptive?

Astruc, how can you, as a creator, say what can and can’t be done? You can’t tell me that not a single person thought the concept for Miraculous Ladybug was ridiculous. If someone did, it obviously didn’t stop you from going ahead and making your show. For God’s sake, a big part of what got people interested in Miraculous Ladybug in the first place was the concepts introduced in the show, like the Love Square and Hawkmoth’s Akumas. There are a lot of fans who outright think the actual show is garbage, and consider several fan works to be far superior, like @miraculouscontent‘s LadyBugOut AU, or @zoe-oneesama​‘s Scarlet Lady comic. Do you know why they made those? Because they had an idea (both ironically based on the show’s poor writing), thought about it, and converted it into a story.

But then again, I don’t think I’ve ever heard of a TV show where the main hero was brainwashed to work for the villain while the other characters have to stop them—OH WAIT.

Yes, arguably one of the most iconic episodes in television history, “The Best of Both Worlds” from Star Trek: The Next Generation follows a similar premise to what Astruc thinks can never happen. In case you live under a rock and haven’t seen Star Trek, this episode is about Captain Picard getting assimilated into the hive mind of the Borg, forcing Commander Riker and the rest of the crew on the Enterprise to step up to stop the Borg from using Picard’s knowledge of Starfleet to assimilate Earth.

This episode is often considered by many Trekkies to be the pinnacle of the entire franchise in its 54 year run, and the drama of Picard being assimilated is one of the key reasons. Without the Enterprise’s fearless leader, there’s a level of uncertainty to the situation, best reflected in Riker’s reluctance to take charge as the new captain. It was even more interesting to see the crew’s struggle to choose between defeating the Borg or saving Picard. There’s a reason why the cliffhanger at the end of the first part was so shocking, as it showed Riker’s development and willingness to do whatever it takes to save the day, even if it means possibly killing Picard.

You’re telling me we can’t get anything like that with Cat Noir or any of the other heroes if Marinette gets akumatized?

Hell, there’s also a lot of narrative possibilities that could come from Marinette dealing with the trauma of being Akumatized. She could mentally berate herself for letting this happen to her, claiming this shouldn’t happen and how she almost got everyone killed while working for Hawkmoth.

You know, like what the episode after “The Best of Both Worlds” did with Picard emotionally venting to his brother.

How come that can’t happen because of what Hawkmoth says to Marinette?

Oh, wait! I get it now! “The Best of Both Worlds” is an actual story, but thinking about Marinette getting akumatized is just an idea because it hasn’t become an actual story yet. It all makes sense now!

Then in that case, I guess these are just ideas as well.

There's literally a bird(maybe it's a pigeon)in my house rn.

Hello. You actually blocked me even though I'm not doing anything wrong like....

Do you have any proof that I'm doing wrong until you suddenly blocked me,@iwasbored777?

What is wrong is you?

Шта није уреду са тобом?

I want to know why.

Honestly I would just avoid iwasbored777 they’re just a rabid Marinette fangirl and have been known to demonize and harass Chloé fans

Well…I’m not really sure right now.

From what I’ve seen from her, she isn’t that bad. Yes, I don’t agree with EVERYTHING she thinks when it comes to Chloe, but she hasn’t really done anything personal to me or anything that deserves a unfollow or hardcore block. Heck, I’m friends/acquainted with some Chloe fans despite not agreeing with everything they say about Marinette or Chloe.

The bottom line is: People are going to dislike Chloe, just like people are going to dislike Marinette. I personally like Marinette more and I don’t think she deserves ALL of the hate that she gets, but Chloe’s starting to warm up to me a little bit. I think it’s more of the fault of her creator than Chloe herself (also, in the show, it’s mostly her mother’s fault and I don’t dislike Chloe more than her mother).

People are allowed to like Chloe, but as long as people are respectful of each other’s opinions on characters, then I’m fine with that. However, if people get TOO rapid and bigoted about it, then we might have a problem. And if it gets too annoying or problematic to me, then I’ll consider unfollowing or blocking them. These are just cartoon characters are the end of the day, and it’s never that serious.

However, she isn’t really there yet so…meh 🤷‍♀️ We’re cool.

Don't give up.Maybe there is another way to revive your reply mode.

Can you read this?

I can but I don't have inbox anymore and I can't answer to replies, I think it only works with reblogs and, as far as I can tell, asks. This is so boring, I can't wait for this problem to get fixed cuz I hear many other people have the same problem so that's probably why we don't see many other accounts here.
