Grownups in Miraculous Paris when middle schoolers tell them how to do their job:

okay but that would actually 1. be a reasonable match for kim and 2. not something his grades allow??? unless it’s way easier to be a PT in france than it is here but i assume you still need to be good at. you know. science. anatomy. physics.

Kinda in love with Lila’s new hairstyle tho 😳

Haven’t seen the newest episodes yet, only seen what everybody’s talking about, and I gotta say: I hope Chloé just stays mayor. They now have a classmate who is more than a bit of an asshole and who is 14 years old and also rules the city with an iron fist as its unelected dictator.

Give me scenes of Sabrina preparing the city's budget. Have Chloé perform wedding ceremonies. She decides with a simple thumbs up or thumbs down whether there's a bike lane, but she's still gotta sit in chemistry class.

I remember reading an analysis post a long time ago (which I can’t find for the life of me 😩) that described how Lila’s design, particularly her hair, fits her character. The OP essentially said that when you look at Lila from the front, you think that she’s wearing her hair down, which can be used to visually represent how open/free a character is, but it’s not until you see her from behind that you realize her hair’s been tied up the entire time; she appears to be open and friendly, but in actuality, she’s keeping her true self closed off/kept away until she chooses to reveal herself to someone

Additionally, her full bangs, which covered her entire forehead and eyebrows, helped to demonstrate how closed-off she really is

She’s much more in control of herself than she lets on, as she’s only letting you see what she wants you to see

But now, she’s traded her long hair for a pixie cut with short bangs that show off her eyebrows. Whether it’s a recent change or if her hair’s always been short, I couldn’t tell you, but seeing her new look in these two episodes reminded me of that post

Up until this point, she had a façade that she relied on to hide her true intentions in plain sight, but now that’s gone (maybe it was never really there to begin with, assuming her hair’s always been short); she’s no longer putting up a front of friendly innocence to trick people into buying her lies

Why would she bother now that everyone who matters knows she’s the bad guy? Why would she bother when she’s got Chloé to act as her puppet and do all the publicly despicable stuff for her? Why would she bother now that she’s finally winning?

She’s always embraced her role as the villain, but now she’s doing so openly, with no façade to hide behind

This is who Lila really is, has always been, and she’s not hiding it from anyone anymore

this is so sweet 😭

Hey Queen, you dropped this 👑

[literaphobe]

i know adrien is a lovesick romantic but he could have just been like ‘hey marinette what school are you applying to’ and like. copied her. and it wouldn’t even be copying???? because fashion makes sense for him especially on paper? king did you forget about your fashion mogul father. did you not remember your last name is stitched into the back of everyones tshirts. did you not model everything the magazines say are worth strutting around in

[wisteriasymphony]

devastated that adrien's only plans for lycée are to share classes with his girlfriend. he really can't have one single unique interest can he. like... idc that I personally headcanon that he's interested in literature and languages and stuff, he could be planning on taking classes in computer science or economics or medicine or just... ANYTHING.

honestly the "I just want to be with my girlfriend, whose name is Marinette Dupain-Cheng, because I love my girlfriend, Marinette Dupain-Cheng" feels more like a copout than anything meant to be cute.

[geekgirles]

Welp, that explains this from back in Volpina...

monarch giving juleka the tiger miraculous again but keeping the ugliest akuma design in the entire show when we could’ve had the #1 prettiest hero design i hate him even more for this
