Crashing out over the fact that Lila’s butterfly villain design doesn’t have a mouth for the sole reason that I can’t animate lip syncing for her in my imaginary music videos

This isn’t miraculous related but I don’t have any where else to post this and my sister is forcing me to cause she loves npmd and grace Chasity (I’m more of a tgwdlm fan myself)
Anyways I loved the choreography from this song so I really wanted to animate it, and cause I like Jon Matteson and they way he delivers that first line I included a bit of Richie too

Soo I really should’ve posted this a while ago but I was waiting to get marks back for it. I don’t know what my unis policy is with posting assignments but I wanted to be safe rather than sorry.
So this tri one of my classes was on animation in video games and the assignment was we had to make ‘a game entity.’ What they expected us to do was to use pre made assets and just add code in unreal engine to make them playable.
Me being *normal* and *sane* pitched IN FRONT OF MY ENTIRE CLASS (I swear everyone at that university just knows me as the miraculous girl) to make cat noir and do ALL THE ANIMATIONS from scratch. Yknow like a moron.

They’re not my best work but time constraints. I picked cat noir over ladybug because I knew I could draw him faster (all those spots make me want to die) and his pre s6 design for the same reason, I know it better so I can do it faster.
The animations I made were an idle, jump, fall, run and attack. (Everything but the attack was mandatory to pass)
I drew some new buildings for the environment (but I mostly reused spring and a storm assets SUE ME I HAD TO CUT CORNERS SOMEWHERE) and made cat noir into a *mostly* functional video game character.
Now before anyone asks. No I’m not making this into a full video game. I did it for my university and that’s it. While it was fun, I do not have the time nor energy to start a project that big right now.

Completely random coming from me btw but the song ‘Cool as I think I am (Reprise)’ from the musical Nerdy Prudes Must Die is so Ladynoir coded I’m going insane.

I had a lot of really similar opinions on the new season. The animation def didn’t bother me as much as I thought it would, except in some of the outdoor scenes where the lighting really bothered me (I do not know much about lighting in 3D so I cannot voice as to why). But other than that my main thoughts about the new ep can be summed up in me spam dming my friend about the episode

SEASON 6 ILLUSTRHATER THOUGHTS
honestly, I was expecting the animation to be more jarring for me than it actually was. It was actually really easy for me to get into and tbh just looks really nice. Adrien is the character I'll need to get used to the most, but I like his look fine, I just need to get used to it.
But like. special shoutout to nino. NINO????? NINO LOOKS. SO FUCKING CUTE. I love him so much I want to squish his face?? I'm almost unable to watch this episode in a normal way because I'm too busy staring at Nino's adorable face the whole time.
Tumblr media
the DJWifi was so cute in this episode. theyre so sweet
in general I really like the redesigns of all the characters. I think they all look like... them. Like Nathaniel looks more like Nathaniel to me, Kagami looks more like Kagami, Sabrina looks like Sabrina and Ivan looks like Ivan. I can't describe it — they look like they've matured enough to have a better understanding of who they are. I like it.
Tumblr media
Also, the intro sequence. If there's still any doubt about whether the show will address "marinette's lie coming back to bite her / looming over her" this season, I feel like the intro answers that pretty clearly and with a distinct tone
Tumblr media
Another thing — the background characters look soooo much better in the new animation. Not only do they not look like terrifying low res monstrosities like they did in the old show, but they have such a wide array of distinct body types that i really appreciate. a lot of diversity in the crowds w race and disability too. and they look good. it's really refreshing.

I. LOVE. the new butterfly-telepathy sequences. the way that butterfly!lila talks to her victims in a little dreamscape where she's able to use her body language and manipulation tactics. I cannot actually emphasize how much this strangely excited me. It feels so much more emotionally impactful and interesting and dynamic and Lila than what Hawkmoth did
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I know people are going to be upset about Marinette being awkward around Adrien again, but I feel like it makes a lot of sense to me. In the more general sense, it makes a lot of sense for this soft-refresh of the show that is marketing itself to a new audience to re-introduce the adrienette dynamic in a way that is just a smidge redundant to old fans. This is kind of important background on how Adrien and Marinette have always been with each other and the context of their relationship! That's important to show.
As a more in-character/universe explanation — while, yes, Adrien and Marinette started to get much more comfortable in their relationship in the old season, they never really got time to BREATHE. they were awkward and messy for the majority of their time together in s5, and then right as they started to get comfortable, Gabriel started puppeteering Adrien in a way that made things pretty tense for them, and then a whole whirlwind happened where he was sent away, and then his DAD DIED and he presumably spent a lot of the summer in mourning and— and— i dunno. I don't think it's too much of a stretch for me to believe that their relationship still feels awkward, especially when a new butterfly villain just popped up and likely reminded marinette of the whole Fiasco and threw her into mega-stress mode.
Their relationship isn't technically all that "new" like they act like it is, but this IS actually probably the first time they've been able to go on regular dates like this! So it feels new, they're still sort of in that "new" stage. Before, Gabriel was keeping Adrien away, and then Adrien probably wasn't in a good headspace for a lot of the summer after he died.
(Also, I just enjoy watching Marinette be awkward about Adrien. I definitely prefer them re-treading some old ground to new audiences than for their relationship to feel too jarringly different than how we've seen them interact in the past. I wouldn't want the time skip to be used as too much of a crutch, especially when I expect that Adrien spent a lot of it in mourning)
But anyway, they're still kissing in the season intro, and this is only episode TWO of the season, so I'm excited to see them gradually get more lovey dovey as the season goes on. (Or for Marinette's stress and guilt to overwhelm her! Who knows! I'm down!)

Oh also, Ladybug looks SO GOOD. she is so shiny and pretty and I love the red in her hair and i love her and I love ladynoir talking about their relationships and and and. and. i love them. thanks for coming to my ted talk

Happy Holidays @onomatopoetic101999 I'm your secret santa for @mlsecretsanta! Marinette is helping Nino with some Christmas shopping for Alya. Adrien was SUPPOSED to be on distraction duty but I don't think anyone can stop Alya when she's determined to find something out.

The thing is, Astruc has said multiple times that the animation has to change because the shows models are so old they don’t work with modern software.
I do think the new animation isn’t as good as the shows best looking episodes (the specials, most s4-5 episodes done by SAMG) but it’s leagues better then the show at its worst (Qilin, simpleman). On average it’s definitely a step up and with time it’ll get better.
miraculous ladybug fandom stop hating on new animation, i genuinely understand and agree that new animation can be a big change and scary in sorts
BUT YOU CANT TELL ME IT DOESNT LOOK BETTER
for SO LONG people HATED AND DESPISED the old animation and even refused to watch the show due to it, trust me guys, from the clip we saw at the end of the london special, it genuinely looks REALLY GOOD
i hate all of the hate on the new animation, trust me i GET change is awful but guys... "worse"?
i keep seeing comparisons and the old animation cant compete i swear...

Respectfully, I disagree.
The show did not ‘promise’ multiple outfits and comparing it to no man’s sky is really weird when the situation is entirely different. There’s a difference between telling your audience: “we are adding this to the game” and then not vs “this is the premise therefore we the audience are assuming this.” And that assumption gets proven wrong.
I would compare this to what they did to Chloe and the fandom reaction to that but at least in that case there was a clear setup of that idea. You’re mad at the show because you made up an expectation that the show then didn’t follow through on.
I find it so frustrating when people say that a fault of miraculous is that the characters don’t have more outfits. (A writing/design fault) like that’s not a completely normal thing for cartoons.
Giving a character multiple outfits isn’t as easy as just giving it to them. It needs to go through a character designer, a turn around, then modelling, then texturing, (in miraculous’ case) all of which costs money. It doesn’t make sense in most cases for shows to devote that level investment just to give a character more variety when let’s be real, it’s not necessary. That’s why in 2D productions characters can often get multiple outfits because it is slightly less costly (you really only need to come up with the design and make a turn around).
Why do you think the show only gives the character a new outfit when it’s relevant to the plot? Or when it would be weird not to? It’s not that it would be hard to do. It’s not that they don’t want too, it’s that it would cost more money to. Money executives aren’t willing to give.

Update: they emailed me back and said no it’s made for kids :/
Great.
Unfortunately that just means Ruler won’t have a comment section anymore. Thanks YouTube.
I love YouTube randomly flagging Ruler of Everything as ‘made for kids’ without notifying me so I learn about it through someone commenting on Spring and a Storm. @youtube why don’t you contact a creator if that happens?? Are all the comments just gone now??
Anyway I’ve submitted an appeal and hopefully that gets resolved? Idk man

The game also seems to ignore that if Alya was akumatised (same with luka but we don’t know exactly when in s4 the game takes place so he gets a pass) she would tell shadow moth that marinette is ladybug…

Well that was fast. I haven't gotten 5 stars in all the levels yet though so I plan to do that. My honest opinion is that this game is slightly better gameplay wise than rise of the sphinx but that's about it really? I kind of missed the character interactions + the unique context specific voice lines in the levels of Rise of the Sphinx. The battle areans though pissed me off so bad. The enemy waves are glitched majority of the time so the next wave just doesn't spawn or you have to wait ages for it to spawn. You also can't access your save file once you beat the final boss. You can go back and play the levels but not the arenas meaning your stats are reset which sucks.
Overall I'd say both games are about the same in quality. While one has better gameplay the other has better character stuff.
