Alya to Marinette

En: You’re just a pushover, Marinette.

Fr: Tu te fais mener par le bout du nez, Marinette

This one is hard to translate. Literally, it would be “you’re getting led by the tip of the nose”, but it basically means that Manon has her twisted around her little finger. To me “pushover” sounds a bit harsher from Alya.

In French, Alya calls Manon “asticot”, which means worm or maggot. It’s an affectionate nickname (I swear) used for little kids who move and twist around a lot. (She says “small fry” in English.)

Frenglish differences in miraculous

which is a series where I'll be highlighting the differences between the French and English dubs of the wonderful show that is Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir

I've always watched the show in its original language and I really recommend doing so but I recognise that it isn't necessarily doable depending on the subtitles people have available to them and the fact that they might be based on the alternate dub rather than a translation of what is said in French, so I thought I'd do this as a way to both show the differences and the things that people might miss, as well as sharing some interesting facts I've noticed! I'll be making one post per episode, with for each notable difference what is said in English, what is said in French with my translation and sometimes a little comment from yours truly 😌

I was blessed with like, an entire week of good tumblr but it's back to not letting me post more than one image and I'm frankly too tired to make two separate posts so have some random married ladynoir content.

Try watching the show not from their yt channels or tv channels, instead use unofficial cartoon/miraculous website that is not affiliated at all with Zag company or any pro-Israel company in general.

Don’t buy Zag animation merchandise, don’t buy anything that is affiliated with any of his shit.

Boycott company that support genocide.

Astruc after all the criticism of season 5:

And good MAN GOOD! Prove me fucking wrong. Prove to me that miraculous still has that spark in it that captivated me in the beginning. Prove to me this show is still worth watching and hoping for.

And man yeah. It still does. Atleast this special truly showed that.

Mans cooked. Mans straight cheffin with this shit.

This was so fucking good. And there are probably gonna be critics that disagree with me and that's fine man. I'm critical as fuck of miraculous and I even dropped it after season 5. I was DONE. lost all hope. Didn't care to see more not even this fucking special which I was so sure was gonna dissapoint me too.

And now I sit here admitting my wrongs and giving props where props is due. This special was fucking great. Best piece of miraculous media Period 👏 In my opinion and by far the best special out of all of them. Ladybug and Marinette were great. Alya was great and felt Important and like a good friend again, Chat Noir was great, Adrien felt like a main character again. Shadybug and Claw Noir were by far the best part hands down. I loved them from beginning to end. Especially Shadybug.

Man I missed this shit man. So freaking happy.

Now it's not perfect. There are definitely some things that I'm mixed on. The whole Chloe turned me evil thing still kinda iffy on that and a couple other things but overall man Jesus. Wow I mean I'm genuinely proud of everyone who worked on this. Animation team, writing team, voice actors. Everybody gets their flowers.

*sigh* I don't yet have high hopes for season 6. But.....I will keep an ear out to hear how it goes and if all goes well and it gets received positively I'll watch.

This special showed what happens when miraculous actually tries. This show has a lot of potential man it really does. It just needs to care for the story it wants to tell and man it did here for sure.
