Yes , I think boys crazy is the only bad episode in the whole show

Boys crazy is the only bad episode imo. Mabel isn't just selfish, she keeps 4 people hostage , uses them to get rid of candy and grenda , and when they ask for a break , she tells at them to play with her.

There's a second plot that's even worse! Robbie convinces Wendy to forgive him with a cd , and dipper goes on a quest to ruin their relationship. Instead of the disk being genuine and dipper learns to let them be happy , somehow the cd is hypnotic. Does Robbie get consequences? No. Does Wendy care about it? No. She says boys are selfish and leaves. And instead of feeling regret , Stan and dipper basically go: women , am I right? Any way , let's go bowling. It sucks.

Say what you want about roadside attraction, it was a decent episode that was hurt by bad placement. Boys crazy is genuinely bad.

Look, on its own Roadside Attraction is not the worst episode. But when looked at from the perspective of it's placement in the season it feels comically bad

Is that the one with the giant spider lady? I'm not familiar with English episode names

I feel like we could put Roadside Attraction as the most forgettable episode as well.

He perfectly summed up my problems with Chief's analysis and added more to it.
And it made me realise, Chief really didn't do anything actually cool in Hell aside from the BFG clash

Still like the episode, in fact he made me like the pre-Hell fight more because I now see Chief using his skill and luck.

Honestly this type of stuff is the reason I like watchings Nem's videos. He said his criticisms as a fan from both series and a person who has done animation himself.

And it actually feels informative and not whiny and annoying.

despite some people saying he has bad takes,he honestly gives better criticism than 90% of people I see give criticism on any episode

Yeah, as someone who liked the episode, the flaws he brought up were definitely ones I felt; I was just able to look past them

Gee, I sure hope that no one uses this to be annoying and harass people who like the episode and or voted for it

I do like this review though. Especially how he clarifies that his problems mainly come from the writing rather than the animation (DevilGOAT always wins in the end) which I think is fair.

I was rewatching Bakerix when I noticed that the banners outside of the train reveal said StarTrain on it... Cool little detail that I hadn't noticed on my last watch.

Not sure if it will have any significance in the Startrain episode but....

This was probably discussed before, but does anyone know why all the eps were played out of order? Was it the stations just deciding to do whatever they want with them?

Through experience, if anything it's probably the same that Hollywood does, they'll take a extra week break that way they don't fall behind in episode creation, or so they can take a short break without worry of falling behind.

It's probably because they'll also air the already aired episod,e not sure

This should get pinned and then just get updated whenever there's a new ep because I swear half the comments are just when's a new ep out or what's been aired so far

Yeah, please pin this.

idk ask TeleQuebec

De-evilize akumas: Technically the cat miraculous can use cataclysm to destroy akumas as well,but it kills the butterfly as well

Miraculous ladybug:recently we discovered there is a Miraculous Chat Noir

Summon lucky charm:that’s her main power,like the cat miraculous is cataclysm

Lead every mission:that’s marinette not the ladybug miraculous l

Coordinate every other hero:that’s marinette not the ladybug miraculous

Yeah, Chat Noir is depicted as the "sidekick" and basically an assistant to Ladybug. The creators and writers keep expanding her plot line, personality and much more as if she is their "favourite child" or should I say "favourite character". If we look closely, they should definitely be of equal importance to the plot and the series and what you said would be a nice fix to this problem in the series! This would ensure they both have more or less equal amounts of power and therefore the same amount of importance. They're the main protagonists after all. I really do wonder why they decided to focus on Ladybug and Marinette so much instead of Chat Noir and Adrien. They really did start to ignore him after S2 and after S3, the entire focus was directed to Ladybug and her new job as guardian. I've said it so many times and I'll say it again: Kitty-cat deserved better!

I always thought this was the most natural way to use both the Miraculous - Chat Noir destroys the evil created, Ladybug re-creates whatever was destroyed.

Another related theory I've had is that the Miraculous Chat Noir used to destroy memories had actually been used by all the previous holders throughout history after each fight against villains, which is why no one would remember superheroes saving the day during historic events - the public's memory was wiped each time to probably protect them from any traumatic memories as well as safeguard the heroes' identities.

Essentially in an ideal world, this is how I'd have both Miraculous function:

- Ladybug: Lucky Charm + Miraculous Ladybug to repair damages

- Chat Noir: Cataclysm + Miraculous Chat Noir to wipe everyone's memories of supervillains and the damage caused

But of course in the show which is set during the modern era, the media and ability to film everything renders CN's memory wipe useless, and not to mention would make half the plot disappear, but it's still a cool power that I think will be very important in the course of this season, hence why it was introduced at all.

It would honestly be nice to see the Cat Miraculous actually having the power to purifiy akuma/amok its just Cat Noir never thought it was possible for him. It feels pretty stupid that ONLY the Butterfly miraculous can do it, especially now that we've seen that Chrysalis can create antikuma to strip miraculous users of their powers.

I would have chat have three different powers, say catalyst, cataclysm, and miraculous chat noir. Ladybug would have three as well the healing light, lucky charm, and miraculous ladybug.

Breakdown: lucky charm and cataclysm work the same (lucky charm creates an object that when used correctly allows everything to go right for the user (aka lucky), cataclysm will make anything the cat touches with his activated hand god catastrophically wrong in the manner the cat wishes (the atoms that make up the object are supremely unlucky to decay/break apart/etc in the space of a few seconds, like a rock cracking, steel rusting to the point of failing, a wood floor rotting).

Catalyst is a controlled, targeted destruction of the magic that would otherwise prevent the akumatized object from being destroyed in order to free the akuma. Same thing for amok objects. The process is to open the inner surface on the baton and touch the surface to the object(s) in question, then the green white light infects and destroys the magical barrier the akuma and amok create. The object is the catalyzed, the butterfly/feather is released, and is able to be cleansed now that it is exposed to outside magic again. The butterfly/feather will have hairline cracks that glow bright green to indicate the magical construct is fully catalyzed.

The healing light (better name needed), is when the catalyzed constructs (butterfly and or feather) is captured by ladybug's yoyo.

Miraculous ladybug recreates the physical world the way it was before the attack (and undo the damage that triggered the akumatization if needed, like the watch in time breaker), miraculous chat noir destroys the trauma (and memories if needed) of the experiences of the world caught in the attack (can include things like human memory, digital/physical records, written records etc). Both will achieve the basics of their function, but anything more require the hero's to concentrate on anything extra. Like if their identities were exposed early on in the fight and news got posted online, hawkmoth wrote it down in three different places and saved digitally as well, the miraculous chat noir would erase the memories of their identities in anyone that saw IRL, online, or were told by others, and any record would be erased as if it never was made in the first place, as long as chat directed the power to destroy the secret that the akuma revealed, and not just the usual trauma caused.

Think Inuyasha needing to use the red tessaiga to break the youkai's reiki proof barrier before kagome uses her reiki powers to purify the evil miasma inside.

Also the baton would be split lengthwise like a hot dog bun, and can still elongate enough to reach multiple objects if needed.

Okay, I don't know shit about Miraculous Ladybug, but that thing about Chloe struck a chord and I had to look up the quote.

So like, I think there is an important message in telling kids that sometimes you just need to let someone go. Everyone can become a better person, no one is beyond redemption, yadda yadda, but that doesn't mean it is necessarily a healthy decision to stick around someone hoping they will change, or try to change them. "I can fix him!" to abusive boyfriends and what not.

But that quote is.... I'm hoping it's from the language barrier because yeah that came off as misanthropic as fuck.

> -Literally the Chat Blanc episode. Its all time travel folks

It says a lot that most of the best episodes in the show are the what-ifs and alternate timelines

Agreed. The romance is this show is just terrible. Marinette’s stalker tendencies are creepy and not endearing (sniffing his pillow was crossing the line). Characters constantly saying how good Marinette and Adrien would be together is BAD and LAZY writing. Chloe is wasted potential and is much more boring as a static petty bully.

Honestly I'd say Marinette/Ladybug is creepier than Adrien/Chat Noir seeing as she knows Adrien's schedule back to front and also broke into his house if I'm remembering correctly.

Chat Noir isn't a creep though. You need to explain that better, because their dynamic is flirtatious and playful in general, she even flirts back, and she does not in any way feel in danger with him. Everything is with mutual consent. Chat Noir respects her when she rejects any advances (which happened, twice, in terms of aiming for a kiss). Furthermore, we saw what she would do when dealing with an ACTUAL creep who pursued her despite her refusal (Felix).

Chat Noir also doesn't know her entire 3 year schedule in advance and smells her pillow like a certain character.

All in all, all I read for the most part was fanon bs on that front and a very skewed perception of certain aspects.

I still love Chat Blanc more but this is easily in my top third favorite episode

It would've been a great episode if they just removed the Lila subplot.

I think that Ladybug was the episode that marked a massive tonal change in the show; the first time an obviously sapient and self-aware being was permakilled for no other reason that her continued existence was inconvenient.

FWIW, I still haven't forgiven Nathalie for this.

I just love any episode with Mayura!

I MISS HER

Laughs in miraculer

I love this season finale, it was the first time Ladybug heavily deals with her own choices and I liked because she was being very controlling about everything. I was expecting something, but not that big you know it was an amazing surprise.

My only complain is about HawkMoth, I mean he did get the miraculous box by s3 finale, then he just get it again in Strikeback.

There is a reason why this episode is the highest rated episode in imdb

Even higher than chat blanc and oblivio

I genuinely don't think we will see an episode who will reach strike backs level of impact and peak writing in a long time

My biggest complaint is how season 5 damages Strike Back indirectly. The message of Strike Back is that Chat Noir is important. Ladybug needs Chat Noir in order to defeat Hawk Moth.

But this isn't the case of the season 5 finale. Ladybug defeated Monarch on her own. And he surprised her with Venom, sure. But it was Marinette's fault for being gullible there.

I still hate that decision the writers made. Adrien being there to confront his father makes perfect sense.

This episode was an amazing season finale!

Action, drama, some romantic.

It was a kickass season finale.

Miraculous Ladybug is the only show I've seen that had aired their finale before airing the rest of their episodes

It's going to be so weird to watch the second part of the finale and then have to go back like nothing happened for Felix and Chat Blanc...

I come from the GOT fandom. There were a lot of people debating whether or not to watch the final season after plot spoilers were leaked.

This is a pretty common phenomenon in fandom. For a lot of reasons: skipping boring filler, skipping triggers... and yes, even waiting until the whole season is aired so you can watch it in order.

I think it's been weird getting everything in a mixed up order period. Like I kept wondering where CN got the Bananoir costume. Now we know!

This is the first show I have watched where the episode releases are sporadic. By that I mean, maaaaaybe we'll get an episode one month, three the next month, and none the next month. It's very stressful. As with other shows, it's either a definite bi-weekly or once a week if there's not a holiday that falls on that day of its cycle. Also, this is the only show I've watched where the episodes are also out of order.

I mean, I liked the idea behind the Miraculer episode. The only thing I didn't like in hindsight was the exposition that Ladybug had been ghosting Chloe for weeks, because it really doesn't make her look good when those... future events... come up. It could've been easily fixed by saying they spoke to her right after the events of Hero's Day and would still occasionally ask for her help as a civilian, only for Chloe to not listen.

Besides that though, I liked the episode. Puppeteer 2 also wasn't as awful as some people make it out to be- like yes, I cringed at the statue scene too, but I honestly cringed far more every time Hawkmoth said "evilize" in the English dub.

But yeah, S3 is probably the weakest overall for me. I can't think of a single episode here that I can say is one of my favorites, and it laid the groundwork for what would become the worst aspects of the show imo

It has some amazing episodes like Cat Blanc/Startrain/Party Crasher/Felix/Silencer/Oblivio/Time Tagger/Feast/Desperada…

That being said it also has the worst finale imo out of every other season as well

The Nathalie and Gabriel arc

Cat Blanc and Time Tagger EZ

Mayura. Oh, and I guess the episodes are fine too.

On a serious note though: Sentimonsters and not a bad exploration of them, Backwarder is good for setting up tension for the season, Feast is good for lore building, I like Gamer 2.0 because it's just a fun episode of fun, even if the beginning is eh, Desperada is one of my favorite villains in terms of everything, Silencer explores Luka, Miraculer is great, but it's not good at setting up for the finale.. Ladybug REALLY WELL shows us how fucked up the Peacock Miraculous can be, creating entire living beings with conscience and desire that can just cease existence in a simple snap.

A lot of good things, but there's also things like Stormy Weather 2, AKA recap, the episode, and Puppeteer 2, which isn't awful, but both the premise and the statue scene kill everything good in the episdoe for me. Other smaller things, like the whole Miraculous are destructible/indestructible debate and so on.
