#this episode gave us nothing

[rubyjanemin]

OKAY

But they didn’t even retrieve the miraculous? This episode was a mess. Adrien is suddenly trying to kiss her? She’s trying to get rid of her creepy stalker attitude and he’s just trying to kiss her the next morning? And Adrien was just rid of his model duties. Just like that. Nathalie is back at the Agreste mansion but clearly has no intentions of helping Gabriel. Tomoe is working with Gabriel now.That asshole, had one smart woman who helped him, but she realised that he was a dick and left so he finds another smart woman to help him. He is one stupid man.

Anyways. Like I was saying, nothing happened this episode at all. Except the fact that Felix is hiding from the two and Duusu is finally meeting him and something really bad is going to follow. BUT LIKE. WHERE WAS THE MOUSE MIRACULOUS? Everyone was waiting for it and then suddenly poof. Not there.

#miraculous ladybug #mlb season 5 #mlb multiplication #felix graham de vanily #amelie graham de vanily #marinette dupain cheng #adrien agreste #chat noir #tomoe tsurugi #nathalie sancoeur #Duusu #mullo #miraculous tales of ladybug and chat noir #i was disappointed #this episode gave us nothing #at least we got to see some cut ladynoir scenes #adrienette #ladynoir

Atla live action 😐

#thats my honest reaction 😐 #to be fair ive only seen 20 minutes of the s1 finale bc my parents are watching it but. mmmmm kinda mid #like. the casting is definitely an improvement since the last time they tried a live action but it feels like the writing falls flat #or maybe im being harsh bc ive only heard negative criticism on it beforehand. but fr anytime u bring up the original its already #good and not just because its the original. so much fucking detail went into it to the point of someone noticing azula wielding mai's knive #to how well thought out irohs character is used as a way of uniting the cast especially as zukos foil #i heard that sokkas sexism was toned down and i have to agree that feels like a cheap move. like i get WHY they think it would be better #but its not about how that reflects on real world its about how it affects the story. sokka starts out as a misogynistic asshole because #it makes it that much more impactful when he changes. toning that down makes it flatter and makes his character development weak #and someone pointed out they didnt even make him wear the kyoshi warrior uniform and i know it feels like such a small detail but #come on man. they did that in the original because not only does it help him really walk in their shoes - wearing 'feminine' clothing and #makeup and having suki explain its significance but it also ties in with the shows theme of harmony and intersectionality #i was also disappointed when they had the fire sages explain how the water tribe draws power from the moon because in the original it was #IROH who explained it to aang and everyone else BECAUSE we as the audience is under the impression hes with the 'bad guys' #and it builds up to how he learned from the other nations which reconciles his past as a war general and his character overall #AND its an excellent starting point for the cast and audience to understand how the nations arent as closed off as you would think #plus you would think its only fire nation doing propaganda but they expanded on that with earth kingdom censorship and it WORKS #a lot of things in the live action also feel arbitrary like. they gave momo a near death experience for 5 minutes for no reason #im firmly on the stance of bringing back filler moments instead of putting major events right after each other so that u give your #audience a sense of time passing and to really absorb the story. but i think thats more like shock value than filler and yeah its a small #thing to gripe about but those things build up and its really annoying. the thing abt avatar filler moments is that however small #its at least meaningful. hell even the beach episode emphasizes how isolated zuko and his friends are as child soldiers #i also swore to never watch the first live action since it was that bad but i really liked the stylized tattoos they used for aang #anyway. those arejust my thoughts. im not gonna watch the rest because im a ride or die for the original aftr growing up and #rewatching it at least 20 times as a kid. but theres definitely room for improvement and i wish ppl wouldnt take it as 'better' just cuz #netflix is adapting it. i wouldve killed for them to just reanimate the entire avatar series and touch NOTHING ELSE no redub #no changes to the story. just reanimate the thing and leave the rest alone and youd make easy money just the same #ALSO its very jarring not hearing jack desena and dante basco voicing sokka and zuko cause their voices were the most recognizable to me #i get that its because its live action but im allowed to feel a little sad abt that. and uncle irohs accent was really soothing #yapping

my mil : “so how is kaitlyn? is she sending thank you cards to everyone? it’s the LEAST she could do since they weren’t even invited to the wedding.”

we had ELEVEN GUESTS!!!! my own twin brother wasn’t even able to make it!!!! i’m not sending a thank you card to some random ass woman that you went to high school with, has no idea who i am, AND didn’t send ME a card or anything!!!!!

#like??? am i missing something??? #in what world am i supposed to send THANK YOU cards to someone i don’t know / didn’t invite / didn’t receive a card or gift from???? #like obviously i’ll send them to my ACTUAL GUESTS and those who gave us a gift / card / even well wishes!!!!! #but why would i do that for someone who doesn’t know my name / knows nothing about my partner / i’m not even sure exists #also why can’t HE do it!!!! #these are friends / family members of HIS mother!!!!! #idk i’ve been bitch eating crackers with this woman lately #less than 24 hours after we got married she goes ‘so are you having kids?’ and we were like aha NO. #and she goes ‘well that’s something you’re supposed to talk about BEFORE the wedding. 😢’ #WE DID??????? #we as in MY HUSBAND AND I????? #and then i told her that she has a grandson already (my cat) and she got mad lol #okay rant over #she just makes me want to pull a bob in the crawl space episode #personal

Voyager Episode where Chakotay and Tuvok are making a fish tank together as a B Plot. It appears in the mess hall after this episode.

#Neelix B'Elanna and Naomi also help with the fish tank #fake voyager episodes my beloved #The fish tank ostensibly provides a method of supplying fresh fish but everyone on board becomes a bit protective of the fish v_v #Headcanon that Tuvok gave his kids fish instead of a sehlat so he knows about fish care #and Chakotay seems like the type of guy who'd just love a good little project #B'Elanna is the first to get protective over the fish....you're ju st gonna EAT them??? #also - and this is crucial...this B plot has nothing to do with the main story. It's not important and doesn't become important. #It's just the kind of thing that's happening on Voyager that week #B'Elanna is involved for her engineering skills and I imagine she designs and constructs a device for the mess hall that will keep the tank #affixed in one place so it doesn't shatter or get thrown around when the ship's hit (Tuvok then uses this to reinforce other ship systems) #Naomi helps by naming all the fish and handing people things they need and listing all the fish facts she knows #she starts off thinking fish are pretty boring as far as animals go but Tuvok and Chakotay teach her that fish are interesting and deserving #of a good life in a big well maintained tank (this also makes Naomi not want to eat them) #I think it'd be funny if at the end of the episode like Tom or Janeway was like wow! I guess fish is on the menu and everyone who worked on #the tank glared at them and they were li ke???W hat??? What did I say??

Yes it might have taken me an embarrassingly long time to really pay attention to it but in ASIAS, along with the 'half a witch' parallel, both Hunter and Willow are motivated by upholding the legacy of those who came before them. That picture of Gilbert and Harvey being flyer derby champions is just as significant to her as the Golden Guard sigil is to him.

#other miscellaneous ASIAS thoughts that are not worth their own post but i think about them often: #its an episode that asks ''but who are you outside of the roles this story uses to define you?'' #this is the only episode of the Hunter Makes Friends series where his actions are not motivated by Belos #and Willow is neither one of Luz's two best friends nor the estrangled acquaintance to Amity #both characters are unnattached to those influences here. And without those roles slotting them into predictable places #we're able to explore new nooks and crannies of their personalities #stuff that really hasnt been revealed before #the two of them are trying out something new and a little out of their comfort zone and it pulls new traits out of them #Hunter’s hexside infiltration reveals him to be WAY more socially awkward than previous eps have shown #and then after his flyer derby match it really brings out his excitement over having friends and the genuine affection he has for them #Meanwhile this is the ep that really establishes what an ambitous go getter Willow can be #Shes never been a leader before. Shes never been this direct or ruthless. But her dedication to this team really pulls it out of her #and these lesser known sides of themselves are the version the other meets #lastly it is a very good take on a Person Vs Society story #again Hunter's internal conflict in this episode has nothing to do with Belos. He literally never gave a fuck if Hunter had magic #But Hunter was still born and raised on the boiling isles and no matter how sheltered he is #the inherent prejudices of the place is gonna gnaw at his self confidence. hes gonna internalize this shit #so while every Hunter ep before this was about how Belos has manipulated his self of worth as a person #this time we are dealing with how hunter views himself as a WITCH #MEANWHILE Willow's struggles with have always been entirely focused on her insecurity as a witch #her terrible grades and her severed friendship has always been about her insufficient abilities with magic #but in this ep you learn that it goes deeper than that #she berates herself not because of her magical ability but because she believes that shes stupid #the half a witch thing has severely deteriorated her worth as a PERSON #their respective struggles go in different directions in this ep and their emotions are complicated #but they still overlap enough that they can understand what the other is feeling #OKAY AND LASTLY AGAIN. Forreal this time #that scene when Darius is about to attack the entrails and Willow throws her arms out to shield all three of them #and then Hunter proceeds to run in and shield HER #because SOMEONE had to shield her. they are instinctive protectors. they are the same

Finally a guy with my sense of humor!

#miraculous ladybug #le chien kim #dark humor #akuma #midnight draws #ml derision #posted months after watching this ep in honor of my ongoing delightful struggle to write kim Exactly Right in my fics #ive got the double unpopular opinion of liking Derision as a kim fan. like yeah it makes me go ?? but also honestly. mostly in character on #kims part. for how consistently the term In Character can be used to define kim. but like. guys the episode is honestly being really nice #ive seen people say they hate kim now and its like really? this is the ep? the one where they specifically make it super clear that he #originally had nothing but good intentions? looking back at s1 kim Derision Kim is. not quite written the same but he's the same shade of #Jerk. which i personally deeply enjoy. ALSO this ep gave him struggles with taking things seriously and romance which. honestly all i could #ever want. peace and love on planet earth.

we literally should have had a whole arc about bamba being accepted by dimevolcano so he could use the burning soul and him learning how to use it properly, like we were robbed

#we could have had it all #it was hinted at in the recap episode and then they gave us nothing #nada literally stole bamba development right beneath our noses... #ryusoulger rewatch lb #super sentai lb #umbrella.thoughts #umbrella.posts

[sunwarmed-ash]

I MISS COMMANDER CODY

#commander Cody #where is Cody? is he safe? is he alright? #Star Wars #clone wars #bad batch #they really gave us that absolute banger of an episode of bad batch and then nothing #thanks Dave

[buildoblivionthenwewilltalk]

okay we can all agree the costumes this season were absolute class but my only complaint is that yet again we were denied klaus in a skirt

#he should have worn one to the wedding and that’s the tea #don’t get me wrong: LOVED that cool ass green suit #but come on #you gave us it on episode one then NEVER AGAIN #Robbie loves skirts too let him wear them!!!!! #that being said #srsly I loved everything that fei wears #and fives new looks #and viktors cool leather jacket he wears in the last two eps!!!!! #and yes I went on a three day crusade looking for THE yellow shirt klaus wears in ep 2 #I regret nothing #ooh also honourable mention to that cool blue fringe cowboy jacket klaus wears when reggies throwing him into traffic #tua #the umbrella academy #klaus hargreeves

[winnie-the-monster]

Me at the legacies writers

#and it’s not just Landon/Hope/Handon #it’s all the characters/‘friendships’/storylines #the truly messed up the last two seasons of the show #they would write Hope/Landon occ just for the sake of whatever they wanted to do #they would have these big speeches/moments to show good friendships(panda promise Hope wouldn’t fight alone only for Hope to fight alone) #a whole speech about how Lizzie couldn’t kill Hope to Lizzie trying to kill her the very next episode #talking about how they would never leave a friend behind but would gladly leave them behind if it was convenient for them #I bet the wouldn’t have even tried to save Cleo if they didn’t need her muse powers #and so on #or them foreshadowing something only to make all that foreshadowing for nothing #spending a whole season setting up something only to make it pointless #making a big deal about malivore wanting Cleo to use her muse powers/gave him a vision and did nothing with it #save them with him taking Hope/golem Landon’s hair & ripper Kaleb #OG triad was over before it even began. idk if I can call the god storyline a storyline at all #limbo?? they kept changing limbo like it was nothing/even the ferryman thing made no sense #oh and does anyone else remember before s4 started they said all would be revealed? revealed nothing/gave us more questions #as well as so many other things #I don’t when or if I’ll ever be over what they did to show #bc it truly says something when the show ends with me only liking to characters and wanting justice for them

[autisticbokutoenthusiast]

it’s saturday which means i WILL be getting my dom mew moment this episode

can’t wait to be made a fool again… unless 👀

#the creators gave us that episode 4 scene of episode 6 scene and then nothing more #like do they know what those did to me?!?!??! #only friends the series

[psychedelic-ink]

is it bad that I'm lowkey disappointed that we didn't see at least something similar to the amazing angsty fanart, like not a lot, but a lil bit more to give some impact.....but anyway it was good to see din being a badass again and the rest of the Mandalorians as well . Grogu was a little badass, bless him.

din's chilling with his son, has a home and I'm happy with that

#the mandalorian spoilers #the mandalorian #i just feel like they had an idea #then executed it very poorly #what was even the point of the third episode then? #they could've cut that short and gave us more Mandalorian things #and maybe build it up more #honestly with the way nothing has any consequences I'm surprised pazz didn't come back at the end fgbgfbf

[poisonousquinzel]

tbh kinda feeling like at this point Stormy Weather 2.0 had more story relevance than the entirety of the "Luka Knows Their Identities" plot line cause wtf was that lmao??

#maybe something happens later in the season #idk and i dont care to know <3 #only seen up to the last episode released a few days ago and i have no interest in the leaks or out of order episodes #so pls no spoilers or you Will wake up at 3am to me violently gnawing on your ankles :3 #not dc #miraculeakless #ml leak free #ml s5 spoilers #ml spoilers #miraculous ladybug spoilers #and yes the importance of SW 2.0 is being over exaggerated cause like What The Hell /Was/ That??? #he did nothing he gave us nothing and then he left.
