still haven't got the chronology stuff done or the Insta stuff incorporated but 🎉

(partly because the Insta stuff is all dated 2019–2020, and still has to fit into the rest of canon, which is dated ?? 2014–2017 ??)

this is for @snowflakechallenge 4, "add something to your fandom’s canon", and @marchmetamatters !

Summary:

Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana. Or, causality is not an oxymoron.

A suggested episode order for Miraculous Ladybug canon, with reasoning.

Chapter 1: First-watch order, spoiler-avoidant (with dates of upcoming episode premieres)

Chapter 2: Chronological order

Chapter 3: Episode order reasoning (assume spoilers for all aired-in-order episodes and all deuterocanon)

I don’t think I mentioned I posted up my little mini Jarvan/Ezreal ship-manifesto. It’s in the collection! (And toward the bottom of the first page by now. XD)

If you look you’ll see people were posting into the collection through the whole year, so it really IS never too late to join in. If you have some meta I encourage you to archive it!

in service of @marchmetamatters 2023 and also @snowflakechallenge 2023 challenges 4 (add something to your fandom's canon; I am adding a timeline) and 8 (polls):

The star stickers in "Mr. Pigeon 72" tallying up the number of times each of the depicted akumas have been seen. I'm assuming the sticker count for Volpina does not include Chameleon, but I'm not sure about some of the others. For instance, Lady Wifi and Gamer have four stickers each. We've seen Lady Wifi in her self-titled episode and in "Felix" and "Gang of Secrets" as one of several people akumatized as a unit, which accounts for three of her stickers. We've seen Gamer in both of his self-titled episodes and in a level of Rise of the Sphinx, which accounts for three of his.

We've also seen Gamer on Heroes' Day, which might account for his fourth sticker, but then again it might be an attack between episodes or in which all that was onscreen was Miraculous Cure as an episode opens. Lady Wifi might also have been in an offscreen attack, or that fourth sticker might be for her appearance in "The Puppeteer" or in "Gamer 2.0", when Alya wasn't akumatized herself but ended up running around as an akuma because someone else's akumasona has power of More Akumas—but at most one of those two instances got counted. Ladybug also knows what happened in "Gamer 2.0"; about Heroes' Day, only Gabriel and Nathalie know why there was a flood of red butterflies instead of a single violet one.

So.
