Here’s something I’ve begun to notice. Despite the fact that I haven’t watched a single episode of s5(Lol), I’ve noticed something interesting. Mari and Adrien are our main characters, then you have their classmates.. But looking at the class there’s something different about one of them.. It’s Alya. Yes, Alya didn’t play as huge of a role as she did in S4, though I’m sure she would’ve if she had kept her miraculous after the s4 finale. But nevertheless, Alya is treated differently, she’s not really just a side character anymore, she’s her own character. I mean, her alternate universe counterpart is playing a major part in the up coming special.
She’s not just a side character anymore. Not to mention Plagg chose her to become her temporary holder. If not for the fact of her nightmares causing her to doubt her ability(Which is such a nice touch because she’s almost always confident in herself), she would’ve been a temporary black cat miraculous holder(Slightly bitter we didn’t get that lol). Not to mention, Tikki specifically chose Alya to take the place of Ladybug, she was given the choice and she chose Alya. Which, to be fair, Alya had already handled the LB miraculous and was aware on how the powers worked, but still, she could’ve chosen anyone and she chose Alya.
If Thomas plays his cards right, he could have a really interesting supporting character. I can’t help but feel they’re going to do something with Alya considering what we know of the next special, how she was treated in S4, and how she was treated in S5 finale, especially with her returning as Rena Rouge(My beloved)

#MLBS4SPOILERS
everyone talks about Wishmaker because of the Identity reveal and all. and I get it.
However, I feel sad because no one discusses the actual Chat Noir reveal...
When Adrien is touched by Wishmaker, he litteraly says something along the lines of "When I was little, I wanted to be whatever would make my parents happy."
I feel like this is a key element to his personality that gives it a serious turn we hadn't explicitly explored before.
I know Luka was shaken by the reveal, but I wish he would find some way to adress it to Adrien..

Why they don’t use the powerups more often.
Ever since we found out that Ladybug and cat noir could use powerups, people have begun to wonder why they don’t use them more often in fights, well, the answer is quite simple really , its not just because its a power which needs to saved for special occasions, but because they don’t have very many to eat to use, let alone share with the other heroes, on a regular bases and unfortunately they can’t just easily make more potions to mix in with the macaroons and cheese, because they don’t know the ingredients!
When master Fu translated parts of the Grimoire which specified the list of ingredients to make the potions, people forget that all the info he translated was in his tablet, but when Hawkmoth finally tracked down master Fu in “Heart Hunter” he not only took the miracle box, but the tablet as well!
And without the Tablet, Marinette was left with no other choice but to use what little she had learned from Fu to decipher the grimoire all over again. Marinette was barely learning how to decipher and translate the grimoire before master Fu lost his memory, and even though she doesn’t have his tablet of what was already translated, she did have the printed copy of the grimoire from her lessons with Fu.
Fu translated enough of the grimoire to uncover the recipes for the powerup potions, however, even he needed to figure out just what each ingredient was, the ingredients in the book have never been straight forward,
“A branch from the Dragon kings garden, that’s seaweed”
“Secret kept in a shell, that’s an oyster pearl”
‘“Dust from the sky, now precious, will fix the wings of the injured animal"
And so in “Mr. pigeon 72″ when Ladybug is seen going full blown chemist mode, mixing the various ingredients in a pot, we see that she wasn’t just trying to figure out a way to stop Hawkmoth from akumatizing people, she was trying to figure out how to translate the grimoire pages and recreate the potions Fu gave her and Cat Noir, but figuring out the translations, the ingredients and the right ratios proved to be far more complicated that expected, resulting in explosion after explosion in her room after each failed mixture.
Fu didn’t give Marinette the information in his tablet because he was still in the process of teaching her how to understand the writing and because he never imagined the possibility of being left with no other choice but to pass on the box to Marinette before Hawkmoth could take advantage of all the miraculous.
Hawkmoth has not used any potions to his advantage because it is he and Nooro who need to take them, not his akumatized villains. Using the powerups would mean that he would need to expose himself out in the open to use the power to fight Ladybug and Cat Noir, and he alone can not risk being out in the open for to long because he prioritized working in the shadows and using others to preserve his own identity.
She couldn’t ask Su-Han for help either because Marinette very quickly realized that he would be actively judging her to determine if she was fit to be a guardian and this alone would leave to more complications as she realized he was to set in his old ways and would be difficult to persuade in understanding that being a guardian should not be strictly by the book and that she was still fit to be guardian even if she didn’t understand the grimoire yet.
Marinette and Adrien have a very limited supply of the potions master Fu gave to them before he lost his memory, and until Marinette can retranslate the grimoire pages and figure out just what in the world the ingredients really are and how to mix them properly, she and Cat Noir need to be very cautious about when they should use the macaroon and cheese powerups they have now, which is why we never see them use the powerups more often even in situations like in “Crocodule” when Ladybug had Cat Noir launch her and Purple Tigress into the air with his staff . If there’s another way to do something without the use of the powerups, then they will do so to save it for another day.

And after watching the Wishmaker episode, and Luka finding out their identities, this meme came to my bro's mind 😂😭
