Miraculous ladybug season 6 review
On one hand I'm upset but on the other it makes sense Luca leaving Paris because they're still a hawk moth / butterfly holder makes sense and it is upsetting that he has to leave I really wish they could have explored more of his relationship with Marinette and maybe a friendship with Adrian but apparently there wasn't enough time for that but they did that with kagami somehow so I don't know why they couldn't have made it work with Luca
especially considering how heavily he feels tied to both of them now especially since he knows both of their secrets but then I have also come to realize that I think the writers may be paid attention to the fans and are actually considering some of the complaints they had about certain things especially with time cuz I've noticed that both of the time users aren't really in the show now
I also like that we're seeing a lot more of mariness regrets and fears especially considering that she's being burdened by Gabriel with everything that's happening
and the more and more we see of this man even after his death just makes me hate him more and more he truly is just going to be haunting this show for the rest of the series even if all the other heroes and people of Paris found out ladybug lied and eventually forgive her for everything that's happened I still feel like Gabrielle is going to be haunting the damn show
Like for the love of God get that man off my screen I'm sick of seeing him and no disrespect his voice actor but I'm sick of hearing him too
I also like that Marinette wants to talk with Luca but I think that's a back of her mind due to the conversation they have later in this episode it's like a part of her nose that she can't really talk to Luca about this either not just because the truth might come out or it'll be another burden on someone else but because I think she knows she shouldn't talk with Luke I think Marinette can maybe tell that he's still in love with her and that's part of the reason he left or maybe she just doesn't realize it she is 14/15
I do wish Marinette had somebody to talk with us about because that was her biggest issue before when keeping the ladybug secret that we saw in season 4 and it was just becoming a such a heavy burden on her I've actually seen people make comics and stuff about this based on how stress she was like what if she hadn't told all y'all about her being ladybug and the writing in that really does show how stressed Marinette would have been if she hadn't told someone she was ladybug and I feel it's the same as happening in the show and that's why the fans are also able to convey that even if it
works if Marinette has somebody she could tell the secret I think things would work out better but as we see in this episode she told Lucas the truth and he had some type of plan but we don't know what was going to happen with that I'm actually going to talk about this in a separate post because there is so much I want to go over about the whole moment with Marinette and Luca talking and her telling Luca the secret cuz I can't help but wonder what he was going to do in this situation especially considering he knows that Adrian is cat noir
I do kind of wish there was some more consistency I wish we would see more of Marinette like episode episode having nervous breakdowns over keeping this secret instead of it going where we have it where we'll see Marinette acting goofy or crazy over a date or an idea that relates to Adrian not that
different than how her season was so for act and I wish it was more serious and showing us having her go through similar things we were seeing before where she was having panic attacks and confusion a bit more consistently episode especially as we build up towards more serious matters especially with how things are going to start happening with the new butterfly holders cerise Lila or whoever she is
And then we switch over to Adrian's place and we see that Adrian is conflicted about his father he even asked plague later on about the fight that happened was ladybug and monarch and plag managed to lie his way out of his thankfully cuz I guess he does know everything as well I'm glad
Adrian isn't the type to like for secrets at his kwame like his father was or figured out how to force him to tell him the truth or whatever because it would have been crazy if Adrian just ordered plaque to tell him the truth and then he did and then that's how Adrian learned everything but a part of me thinks that even if Adrian learns the truth he's either going to use his new miraculous cat noir power to erase his memory or he's going to erase the memory from marinette/ladybug so she won't feel burdened by it.
After this we switched to City Hall we learned that the statue that Gabriel had in the park made from recycled alliance rings was vandalized or was being vandalized I wonder if that's going to be touched upon at some point cuz I'm wondering who vandalized it like was it some people Adrian knows that new Gabriel was an awful father or is it just people vandalizing the statue cuz that's what
people do or people who don't like the rich or something cuz it could be that or we might tackle that at some point this plot point could possibly come up maybe related to another episode cuz an idea I had after watching episode of second time is maybe Zoe vandalize the statue cuz that new dude we saw in the one episode is blackmailing her into doing it so he'll keep her secret about her being a bully back in New York it could tie back to that but that's just me making a random theory about it it could be totally unrelated but it just has me
wondering who's vandalizing the old statue is that why we didn't see it in the park they keep telling us that the episode order doesn't matter but it has to because I know we're all not stupid and I know we can all tell that the episode with Aurora isn't really episode 1 I Believe episode 1 is possibly the episode where we see Miss bustier get akumatized because we know from the episode sublimation that she got akumatized herself
I'm glad that Adrian doesn't want a giant statue of his father, because there's so much unresolved stuff between Adrian and his father that will never get resolved unless somehow somebody does bring Gabriel Back which I pray they don't bring him back until this show he was here for five seasons doing nothing for 3 of them we do not need him back
We also see that Marinette wants to tell Adrian the truth but Natalie brings up the conversation they had on the London special about not letting Adrian know anything and I agree with her for right now I think at some point this season or maybe even the next season we're going to see Marinette tell him the truth or Adrian learn the truth because I believe the season final will kind of mirror season 1 where we see the origin of the season where we'll see cerise / Lila first use the butterfly miraculous to akumatize a citizen and that's when we'll see everyone in their new outfits for the first time that we see them in currently we'll see them transform or maybe upgrade their suits or something possibly I pray we see how they upgrade their suits because some of these upgrades are so much better especially ladybugs I do miss that her suit changes when she does lucky charm but it's still cool either way
We later see Marinette at her house taking guitar lessons from Loca and we also see that Luca has a girlfriend although it's already kind of revealed that she's fake I'm not sure what their relationship is or if the writers will have them actually get together at some point but I do think this nice to see that
characters have other relationships outside of the main ones we would see throughout the show where you just stick to like duos or a group of four with the characters I only have them interact with small certain sets of people is nice that the newer writers and the writers of the show are showing the characters Branch out I have more relationships I'm actually hoping we see that at some point for Adrian and Marinette where we see them with newer people
Again I really want to address this part here with Luca talking about his feelings for Marinette and the whole confession with the snake miraculous and another post so I'll address that there
But I have to say why is this giving shady bug like they really should have made Marinette goth or that ladybug look goth/punk like Marinette looks so much better like this than even regular ladybug with the highlights in her hair and the purple although this also kind of reminds me of the unification with the butterfly miraculous I wish they could have shown more of the snakes features in her suit but I really love how the highlights and the tip of her hair kind of look like purple fangs that round her face and how her eye color is brown or brownish gold kind of
I was worried we wouldn't see any more unifications at all unless it was a flashback or something or a special but thank God we got to see one I'm hoping we get to see ladybug and the tiger miraculous unify at some point cuz that'll be fine like that's the one I want to see the most
Lila posing is all the various statues was actually really funny I thought Theo was supposed to be like 16 to 17 his age was never clarified cuz I know back in season 1 when he was acting like really weird about winning a date ladybug who was clearly a teenager who flight 13 through 15 was really weird and a lot of fans were always wondering what his age is but now he's up here building and sculpting statues I don't even think they would let an intern at a college sculpt the statue unless they were that amazing maybe he is apparently every kid in this city is a genius so I don't know I swear he's like 20 something at least from my perspective I always thought he was 20 something maybe a bit older and then he sitting here lying talking about he works with Gabriel I don't believe that for a second maybe he did I don't think we need to go into a story with Theo and Gabriel that's the last thing anybody wants to see from this show
The battles are actually quicker in the newer season I've noticed that lately that we focus more on the characters instead of a fight I am going to miss seeing a different fights in the way ladybug figures out how to use lucky charm but it was still a nice quick fight Adrian got a lot of his feelings out even though it wasn't towards his real father and he still really hurt about it I really am hoping that at some point he gets to address these feelings he's had at some point like maybe I don't know use the rabbit miraculous go back until Gabriel doll for something at some point as himself and then not having affect the timeline but I don't think that'll happen I do know from a spoiler I saw on Twitter and Instagram that at some point Alex is supposed to come back for an episode but we know that she doesn't stay around long because with new holder and them being able to get their hands on the time miraculous that would ruin everything but with from what we saw from the London special Alex stays Bunnix till a very old age to her 70s or 80s possibly I'm hoping that she's not bunnix because they still haven't got The butterfly holder like I feel so bad for Nuru he's just eternally isolated from his friends
Also at the end we get the end credit picture and then we learned that Lucas fake girlfriend sorry her name is escapes me right now we learned that she has a miraculous it was crazy to me is that years ago I actually drew a hummingbird miraculous a part of the au I was working on with Marinette and two other characters and now we're actually seeing a hummingbird or a bird like miraculous and Brazil and I guess it doesn't shock me that there are miraculous and other places we did see a
miraculous box at the end of the New York special if I'm remembering right I remember at one point but I believe this was scrapped is during season 5 originally Marinette was going to possibly go from country to country getting the miraculous that Gabriel stole back each episode but I think that was just a plot idea that was put out cuz I know that one the leaks came out that was one of the plot that they had mentioned they were going to do in the leaks that I remember seeing sorry for mentioning leaks I know people don't like them but the leaks
from season 5 or so crazy and I think that's part of the reason why nobody really likes season 5 looking Back is that everything got spoiled with this season thankfully the trailers don't spoil it or we don't get a trailer which I've seen that people are really happy with like when we don't get trailers or spoiled for anything if we just get one picture it's fine but going in blind is just so fun and I hope we get to continue that throughout this season I'm especially looking forward to the episode Nemesis whenever we get that next year or year after cuz you know how long it takes from miraculous to drop the souls we'll probably be here till 2027 trying to get the rest of season 6
That's all I have to say for this post for now I'm happy after months miraculous is finally bad cuz we haven't had a new episodes since what April I wish there was some way they could produce at least 12 episodes get the first 12 episodes done and just release one episode a month throughout the year that way it wouldn't be such a long hiatus and while they're releasing those episodes throughout the year they can work on the other episodes they need to finish for the rest of the season but I know
production and stuff can be iffy because we were technically supposed to have season 5 back in like 20-20 or 2021 but it got delayed use of pandemic and some strikes and even with season 6 and I'm switching to a new engine from what I remember someone telling me don't take my word on this we were supposed to get season 6 last year starting in August but it got delayed several times and that's why we didn't get it till like the end of January at the start of this year or the start of February if I'm remembering right but again this is just what from what I've heard people say who's going to like conventions and different things I can't really tell if it's true or not you'll have to look for yourself
(sorry if my post seems all over the place)
