Don’t recall but we definitely haven’t heard them talk for a few seasons at least.

Also I hope Zoe’s Cat Noir form gets a proper name before she inevitably loses it in the next episode

Kitty Noir is the name I've seen, but I guess we'll find out soon/sometime in 2023/after 8 or 9 episodes that follow it have aired, delete as appropriate.

One time he ordered Nooroo not to speak and their mouth disappeared, but then he said "just kidding" and it came back. Nooroo's had a few short conversations with the peacock kwami since then.

Yep, you're totally right. Then the rules are busted as all heck and we're never get anything to make sense. Poor Nooroo, they deserve another episode where they party and not worry about the Monarch giving out to them!

Two new episodes just dropped in Brazil but instead of giving us Kwami’s Choice Part 2 they instead decided to jump ahead again to after Emotion.

Pretension: Here we learn that not only is Felix not as bad as we thought but Kagami’s mother is possibly worse than Gabriel (or at least just as bad), also Gabe’s cataclysm induced wound continues to spread and Kagami both finally stood up to her mother and seems to have secretly hooked up with Felix (also Marinette gives Gabe a much deserved verbal smackdown)

This episode also seems like it’s setting up the next Miraculous World special as Gabriel mentions that he’s sending Adrien to London the following year


Revelation: This one almost confirms that Lila is going to be Monarch’s successor as she manages to successfully play everyone including Gabriel to get access to his secrets, get Chloe under her thumb, and even take Marinette’s position as class representative (she seems to be gunning for the butterfly Miraculous now as well)

Speaking of Lila, just how many moms does this girl have anyway?


Though I wish they’d have at least finished a story arc before skipping ahead it was still a pretty decent batch this time around

The English versions of Transmission through Emotion are out by now as well

That scene in the kitchen was so drat sinister, Gabriel talking about fashion gave me chills.

We’ve still got at least two seasons left but Gabe’s been raising a lot of death flags lately. I wonder if they’re setting up Lila to eventually take his place (after all, back in the Time Tagger episode we learned that not only are Ladybug and Cat Noir still active in the future but there’s also a new Hawkmoth around that apparently isn’t Gabriel)

I dunno, Lila seems way better at manipulating people than Chloe and even successfully got the latter under her thumb.

Come to think about it, aside from being an expert liar/manipulator who has a deep grudge against Marinette, knowing Gabriel’s identity (and now that he’s discarded her managed to learn all his secrets and is now gunning for his Miraculous), and apparently having at least 3 moms we still don’t know a whole lot about Lila’s backstory if I remember right.

In other news, apparently the earlier seasons will be removed from Netflix at the end of the month:

The problem is that they're setting her up too well. I just Chloe to have one last hurrah before the show forgets about her forever. Even if she gets to be Queen Bee in the future and order around paid henchmen.

True, it felt like after their failed redemption attempt the writers were going to about face and go full villain with Chloe but lately she’s kind of been just there for the most part while Lila gradually takes her place as Marinette’s main non superpowered adversary

If we round nine months to 273 days, Mr Pigeon alone was akumatised on 72 of them, and up to the end of season 4 there were at least another 100 akumatisations. Since there was a quiet period of what seemed like a few weeks in 5x03, Gabe attacks roughly six days a week on average, at any time of day or night. All this on top of running a global fashion brand. Fucker is organised.

Yeah, there’s also some attacks that happen off-camera and are only mentioned by the characters (and other times where we start an episode at the end of a fight)

On another note, why does Marinette keep giving out those charms after a person is deakumatized? It’s been proven they don’t work anymore

There's one recorded instance of him akumatising while on the toilet. There's probably more that happened offscreen.

That's when they're not being akumatised themselves.

There must be a ton of offscreen akumatisations, otherwise Marinette would surely have a conspiracy map covered in pins and string suspiciously centred on François Dupont high school.

Though that said there’s still Chloe, Lila, and at times Marinette herself who have all also contributed to a fair share of akumatazations. Ship the first two off overseas somewhere and Gabe’s job will become a lot harder

It’d be interesting if a MW special was actually plot relevant for a change but we’ll see how it goes

With our two leads together now I wonder if we’ll finally get a permanent identity reveal this season (especially since the past has shown us that usually ends in disaster and has to be erased from the timeline)

I think the show us playing up the whole doomed lovers thing, where they need to give up their powers to be together. Maybe a time skip episode at the end to pander hard, but not much else, unless they are mad enough to make an entire season in the FUTURE!

The Time Tagger episode did say the pair were still active in the future with a new Hawkmoth in charge but whether the show will actually go for it remains to be seen (we’ve got two confirmed seasons left after this and Gabe’s days appear to be numbered currently along with Lila now gunning for his Miraculous)

That’s why I spoiler tagged it, subbed versions of those episodes exist but they haven’t been officially dubbed yet (and by the looks of things probably won’t be until at least March)

Unless you’re referring to something else related to that (I know some stuff got leaked a little while back)

The movie is AFAIK completely separate from the series, basically a reboot.

Which may be a record - rebooting a show in another medium while it's still running.

I believe they were referring to Miraculous World: London (which isn’t a movie per se)

Speaking of, we still don’t have any information on that or the other MW special they have in the works yet do we?
