YES OMG that's what I was going for with my most recent fanart. Adrien now needs to figure himself out without anyone's lead, find his own thing. But for now, he's very lost, he's never taken any decision for himself. I'd love for him to get into some kind of art or craft
His character seems to kind of take that direction in s6 with Revelator where he clearly states he won't do anything that will bring attention to him, so I'm thinking of something that allows him to have a more of a safe space and a community + He seems to have made changes to his room as we can see in this scene, his bed changed spots I guess ? And he painted the wall behind him :
I'd like to think that Adrien's going to get into abstract art. It's totally opposed to his father's very symmetrical, cold and strict artistic direction. He'll be able to express his emotions and creativity freely
A lot of people think of baking, since it's already a running joke in the show. But it's too tied to Marinette, and I don't like that very much since I don't want him to keep being under her wing, although she will probably be the one to inspire him to experiment.
So maybe cooking instead ? It's a way for him to connect and take care of the ones he loves, and it's also an art form
I'm really trying to figure out the development of his character since I've been planning out a rewrite/redesign of his character, which hopefully I'll be able to present to you soon
So if anyone has other suggestions/opinions on the matter, I'm all ears !
Saw the interview of Thomas saying Adrien/Chat Noir is in a stage of his life where he's finding himself and he's akin to a blank piece of paper and i could feel the mental illness activate like a sleeper agent at the thought of Adrien staring at a blank canvas trying to decide what and who he's supposed to be now im going to explode
Low quality Chat Noir doodle to escape my responsibilities
I just watched El Toro de Piedra ! the animation seems to be even better in this episode ? I'd say it's on par with Climatiqueen which only excites me for what's coming next !!
The letter Gabriel addressed to Adrien broke my heart, I understand why Marinette didn't show it. I don't know if it's the best way to explain to him everything, especially since he doesn't express any regret in that letter about what he has done...The audacity to tell Adrien he should also pursue the miraculous lol ? But I feel like Adrien's getting closer to learning the truth
We also got a better understanding of the layout of his room. So the top floor is where he's supposed to sleep but since he's still figuring things out he didn't organise it yet.
I also love how this ep was constructed, the pacing was really good. First, the obvious parallel between Ivan and Adrien and their fathers. But also the fight sequence happening simultaneously with Juleka's song. They gave character dev/depth to not only Ivan but also Juleka, her singing was beautiful and I'm fully in love with her new look <3
ALSO can we talk about THE END SEQUENCE ? TF is that illuminati looking group ?? NATHALIE'S STILL EVIL ?? Look at thiiis
But it also makes sense, it was actually hinted and explains why Tomoe was collaborating with Gabriel. I remember her telling Gabriel in intuition "I want a better world".
But this also means that now we've got multiple grown ass billionaires beefing with Ladybug and Chat noir. Do you think Lila/Cerise is collaborating with them (which would bring her funding and support) as well, or is she working alone ?
GUYS THE REVEAL IN THE RULER IS EXACTLY LIKE THE REVEAL IN EPHEMERAL I'M TWEAKING
Not kidding. I just checked and Nathaniel says almost exactly the same thing as Ladybug when she revealed herself as Marinette to Adrien :
"S'il-te plaît dit quelque chose" / "Please say something"
"Dis quelque chose" / "Say something"
This coupled with Lila/Cerise mentioning Nathaniel while writing means that there's a big chance this reveal will have consequences later in this season omg...She probably already has suspicions of him being Caprikid...
if y’all see this floating around: yes, it’s from me, and yes, you can find the original post on hoyolab under the same user <3
So Adrien texting like a boomer is 100% canon
My friend recreated adrien’s messages to Marinette
I enjoy that direction and it's a refreshing idea for a kid's show, but they executed it so badly.. the writing was FAR from perfect. Like revolution was such a goofy episode lol. But the idea itself wasn't bad !!
I especially HATED how people in the fandom just casually spread disinformation about the supposed reasons of her "ruined redemption" when there's only one reason : it was planned.
I would've enjoyed more if Chloe failed her redemption in a less extreme way though, there was no need to make her as bad as they did, she should've stayed as some kind of minor antagonist or a more neutral character. Like, she stays a bitch but doesn't cooperate with a literal terrorist.
I'm worried about what they're planning with her for s6 as I wouldn't enjoy her being a major antagonist at all.
Caught myself thinking about Chloe Bourgeois and my unpopular opinions about her (that redemption arcs are so expected in any mean character of any media that she is a refreshingly nuanced and interesting take on a character that refuses to take accountability and go through a redemption arc because she doesn't like the consequences that come with taking responsibility for her bad actions and that I very much prefer how her arc is unfortunately tragic in the original show). I am then shot 57 times.
i always think of adrien and felix during this part of BLUE by billie eilish so i drew something about it
it's like the reverse special except it's @cookiedough77 ladybug and also mine because I like crossovers...
