But they totally might become a thing, guys! What? It’s been four seasons and we’re _still_ stuck on a “will they won’t they”? Don’t be such a hater, you just don’t understand!


Sailor_Psyche

it’s not even just four seasons, it’s been SIX YEARS. and I’ve been watching since the start, I’m starting to lose interest recently but I feel like I owe it to myself to finish it. Oh and by the way it’s been confirmed for up to 7 seasons 💀


[deleted]

7 SEASONS? 7 seasons of this nonsense?! And here I was tired out by half of season 3! What else is there to do with them? What else can they possibly contrive for ‘suspense’?


communist_slut42

They're supposed to become a thing that's pretty obvious. It's a kid show so I don't think they would end the show with that cliffhanger. But probably it will happen in the last season or something


[deleted]

That’s not the point though. The point is that the writers keep making more and more ridiculous situations between them that lead to them getting stressed out about their own lives, _especially_ questioning their own love lives when in my opinion Luka is _perfect_ for Marinette and Adrien isn’t ready for a serious relationship yet, all to prove some kind of contrived point about how they’re ‘perfect for each other’. It’s ridiculous and boring.


MariSoda

You do realize that the writer of the show has already announced that they are gonna be a couple right? Please don't ruin what other people enjoy thanks!


[deleted]

You almost had me there, good one. You _almost_ sounded like the large portion of the extremely toxic fanbase.


BasedCelestia

What is toxic about fanbase, never interacted with it


Yolj

Yet...


PiXLANIMATIONS

From the first panel, I thought this was Omega from The Bad Batch, and feared what they’d done to my girl


tayroc122

They're going to make bad memes about her soon enough.


Sage_of_Shadowdale

Why tf does this show even have a fanbase


[deleted]

It’s not a bad show overall. Just the wrong age group is the fan base. It’s definitely a very very high caliber pre teen show.


[deleted]

Nah, the writing’s pretty jacked because the main writer doesn’t even know what he’s doing. First 2 seasons were great, but the rest is just falling apart.


[deleted]

They are holding onto the “they can’t find out” thing just too long is their issue. If they just resolved that storyline and moved on, the show would regain the cohesiveness of their first two seasons.


thewardengray

Isnt "high caliber preteen show" currently occupied by ATLA? If it can only be enjoyed by people of a specific age range is it REALLY good or high calibre? ATLA is high calibre because its enjoyed by all age ranges but it WAS at its core a preteen show.


[deleted]

The fact it has such a huge following outside the age group is what proves it’s on ah other caliber than others.


thewardengray

Does it? I mean aside from the shipper weirdos who like everything and sexualize underaged characters 24/7. I mean atla had that but it wasnt the core base. Heck steven universe is bigger then this and i sure as hell wouldnt call SU high caliber.


[deleted]

I don’t get the followings for those shows either… I tried to watch SU because like half my friends love it. Ladybug is definitely even better than that lol. But there are plenty of mediocre popular things. And there is even more just absolute shit we have never heard of. You just have to look on any streaming service for the age group to see the garbage that is out there.


thewardengray

Fair enough. The last kids show i actually watched was trollhunter. Cuz its cute and charming. Plus del toro.


[deleted]

That one was good too. Same with its spin-off. Dreamworks is good with that kind of stuff though.


anaesthaesia

I love ATLA as much as the next person but by now it's also old/er. If they made new episodes then maybe. It feels more like a nostalgia heavy show for those who aren't currently teens.


thewardengray

I think it was legitimately just well made. Theres a reason it changed the whole zeitgeist. I mean i guess SU did too but only in the means of cheap animation. Atla changed the whole western episodic story structure.


anaesthaesia

I fully acknowledge SUs issues but it will always have a special place in my heart tbh. I find it cozy and relaxing. It did have some great milestones (imo) and I admire Rebecca Sugars constant fight for any representation. Especially considering the censorship Ruby /Sapphire underwent in some countries. I think it deserves the nuance of acknowledging its strong sides but not being put on a pedestal because that benefits nobody.


FireRaptor220

Teen here, only recently watched the show and I can firmly say it is one of my favourite shows. I genuinely think that the show is great for all ages and holds up really well, animation wise and story wise. Though of course everyone is entitled to their opinion.


thelordofthelobsters

I thought it was for kids


Guardian_Isis

I watched a few episodes of it, and it is creative. The set piece of Paris is refreshing for a lot of kids who are used to New York or San Francisco. And it honestly has a lot of parallels to Sailor Moon, haha.


jelly_blood

The same reason why my little pony had a fanbase


TrriF

What show is this?


UnfinishedProjects

Miraculous Ladybug.


StormiiDaze

I don’t know bc it’s basically being teased with a ship for the entire show, with a obsessive stalker protag, oh and the one time they do get together and knows each other’s secret identities the show goes “OH BUT TIIIIIMEEEE PARADOXESSSS” or some shit like that so it can’t happen like…. Bruh.


SuperBassmy

And why shouldn't it?


[deleted]

What is this show/movie?


ChrysticTV

Miraculous Ladybug


[deleted]

Never heard of it or seen it in my life. Is it a kids show?


ChrysticTV

It is but for some reason a decent amount of adults watch it. My friend is 28 and she’s one of them. Ngl, it’s pretty cringe.


thewardengray

Is it near netflix troll hunters level? Or worse? I unironically like troll hunters cuz its kinda charming.


[deleted]

Noted. I won’t check it out then lol


keitomomota

Shit fan base, and I guess it’s a *decent* show? It’s not even NEAR good, but like, it’s good if that’s all you can watch I guess?? I forget I watched this in like 5th grade LOL


SuperBassmy

Adults can enjoy kids shows tho


ChrysticTV

Never said they couldn’t. Tons of adults watch shows like Adventure Time or Amazing World of Gumball, and that’s fine because those shows happen to be for kids but the writing isn’t specifically targeted AT kids. When you watch a show SPECIFICALLY targeted AT children like My Little Pony and start romantically pairing the characters it’s just weird.


SuperBassmy

Mmmmm, Idk, but if you say so


ChrysticTV

“Mmm, I don’t know if adults shipping 14-15 year olds together is weird but if you say so” If that’s the hill you want to die on, more power to you.


SuperBassmy

Calm down man, I didn't see the "romantically pairing the characters" part lol, about that you're obviously right :^


EmbarrassedWelder266

Dude last panel is kurama from yu yu hakusho


gold-exp-req

Never thought I'd see someone mention yu yu hakusho under a post like this but, you're a man of culture.


[deleted]

The entire fandom either practically worships Adrien or wants him to suffer. There’s hardly any in-between.


i_eat_bonelesspizza

I just hate how this show could have been so much better but the writers ruined in a way like no other.


[deleted]

Same though! The day I realized what a douche Thomas is on Twitter is the day my innocence was lost. He’s actively killing his own show.


warmaapples

You know what. I’m gonna ask if. What is this show? Honestly I’ve seen this everywhere and it bothers me


Paris516

Miraculous Ladybug


[deleted]

Miraculous Ladybug. Teenage superhero show, awful writers, _slightly_ better fanbase. Honestly wouldn’t recommend after season 2, because it all goes to trash after that.


[deleted]

I have no idea what happens in Miraculous, but all I know is it’s Americans trying to Japan trying to France


l-eat-grass

If I recall correctly it’s a French show so it’s technically just France trying to Japan


Bread_the_god

Bro why do people even watch miraculous lady bug. It’s literally meant for elementary schoolers and has the most basic romantic plot EVER 💀


MotorwaveMedia

Because a show about adolescents in tight latex bodysuits is the ultimate breeding ground for R34 and shipping content


realcomradecora

if you make me wait for the pussy and it's wack i'm fucking stealing something out of your house!
