Chat Blanc Predictions

Okay, so my recent post I was talking about Miraculer and Copycat. With that, I was thinking about the upcoming episode of Chat Blanc and I’ve been asked to expand more on what I was saying- I was planning on doing so anyway.

So I’ve been thinking a fair amount and I have concluded that I really can’t see Chat succumbing to Hawkmoth’s temptation of doing evil. We have seen Chloe fight of the Akuma in Miraculer, and considering I said about how similar Chat and Chloe are in their devotion to Ladybug, I really can’t see Chat giving in.

Let me explain and expand:

We have seen Chat be angry and hostile toward Ladybug before over rejection from her, as we see predominantly in Glaciator. The thing is there, it was miscommunication and Chat being too hopeful. In the end, he ended up hurting himself, but he comes to a conclusion on his own after Ladybug apologises.

Chat was too hopeful, but at the end when Ladybug explained and apologised (again), he understood and took her friendship instead. We know that he is still hopeful, but I would say he isn’t as bad. He knows his boundaries (we see him moving off from Ladybug quicker etc)- whenever he says anything now, it is a part of their game.

However, we have also seen him be hostile towards Ladybug in the aspect of retaining secrets. Not necessarily the Secret identities, he is only distraught over that. The episode I mean by this (keeping secrets); was Syren.

He didn’t feel like he was trusted, as you are meant to with being partners; especially ones that are saving Paris every day.

Ladybug knew of Fu, she always had hints to go to him and he was left in the dark, which leads to my next and final point…

Feeling useless- Chat thought he was being left in the dark and therefore Ladybug didn’t need him, or that they weren’t being a proper team. Which I would argue they weren’t in that instance, but the situation was unwarranted- Ladybug didn’t want to keep him in the dark, it was for his protection.

In Sandboy and other episodes, we see that Chat feels useless in comparison to Ladybug.

“…I’ll never love you. I’ve always wanted to get rid of you”

That she doesn’t see him properly. There are so many episodes now that this is coming up in. In Anansi she says “you know you’re irreplaceable”

I am saying all of these things as they are themes which crop up a lot with him, and can make their communication go off the rails as he has gotten hostile before etc.

Chat has never retained hostility for too long, as Ladybug has picked up on them and has tried to express her reasoning, or to help him not be left in the dark or feel second-best. They are a team and they need to communicate.

He is very quick to accept apology or encouragement etc from her. I can’t see Chat turning against Ladybug, he is too loyal and he won’t give into the temptation. This is why I think it’s interesting that we see Chloe fight off the Akuma because of her devotion… but we know that she has fallen out with Ladybug and is more susceptible to being Akumatized now. This leads me to think that an event has to happen, that isn’t resolves, or resolved properly to make him so angry, but I truly can’t see that happening. He has only truly had hate in his heart from Dark Cupid and Ladybug was shocked to hear him say that stuff.

However, the only thing that I could think of that is overwhelming, is the feeling of being useless. I sympathise. Even if Ladybug says that he is irreplaceable etc, in my experience (anxiety and depression) you can still feel useless. Appreciative of the person trying to help reassure you, but don’t believe they are genuine. I have no idea if this is a plot point for Adrien/Chat as we still need to dig into his character more, but it wouldn’t surprise me. Feeling useless… it can be from neglection. It can also coincide with how he always wants to help people, even if they are as bad as Lila. He wants to amount to something. It’s why he loves being Chat Noir, but is never actually in the limelight. Still, I don’t think he would be capable of letting Hawkmoth in.

So let’s look at it from two other angles.

So one angle I’ve seen some people approach is Adrien’s family situation. Let me iterate in how I also don’t think this is plausible.

Despite Gabriel being a terrible father, he cares about his son (to a degree, however skewed). From what we can tell from Nooroo mentioning to Gabriel about the negative emotions probably being his son’s, he washes over it (because he’s a dick of a father) but also it indicates to me that he wouldn’t think of Akumatizing Adrien. That is, unless he was very, very, very desperate.

Even then… it would be hard for Gabriel not to see that Chat Noir is Adrien if he pastes Chat Blanc on Adrien. One, it would bring back his suspicions from Gorizilla like “Oh, I thought you were Chat Noir once, lets see what that’s like”- lets just say it would give away that Adrien is Chat Noir. And Two: Chat Noir wouldn’t be there! It isn’t a situation like Gorizilla where Adrien was still in civilian form and could get someone to pretend to be him.

Then if Hawkmoth/Gabriel akumatized Adrien whilst as Chat Noir, and it was off of his family situation, it wouldn’t be plausible. Chat Noir would have to have a spike in that instance, if it is his family situation, it would mean Chat would be directly involved, not as Adrien. Then if it was an outsider looking in, then Gabriel would definitely tell that it is Adrien who is Chat (does that make sense?That was hard for me to explain).

So, my prediction.

I think it’s a possibility that Chat Blanc is not Chat Noir Akumatized. The synopsis for episodes can be misleading, and this is one of those episodes which can easily be manipulated. There is a reference to Copycat, so it’s a possibility that there is a mimicking. We also are expecting to see a sentient of Ladybug, as well as there is a lot of “copying” as a theme in the latest Miraculous episodes that have been released.

I know in S1 we always saw Ladybug utilise Chat when he had accidentally gone over to the other side (Puppeteer, Dark Cupid etc), we know that Ladybug actually can’t do it all on her own; she needs Chat. Their partnership has been building more and more throughout the seasons and we have seen them practically in sync (in Timetagger they were inadvertently and in Frighteningale they literally were tied together). but also…

I understand that it’s difficult to know who it could be and what they would have against Chat Noir or Ladybug etc. But I honestly can’t fathom seeing Chat being manipulated or tempted to betray Ladybug. And that’s another thing, Master Fu will question if Adrien was right for the Miraculous- it would go against why Adrien was given the miraculous in the first place (from being compassionate and caring, but also ultimately giving up something he wanted. From leaving his post on the stairs of the school, he inadvertently gave up pursuing what he wanted). Adrien and Marinette were chosen for a reason and if their negative emotions get the better of them, they could be seen as unfit for the task at hand.

Of course this is only my opinion, so I don’t know exactly, but I’ve been thinking about it a lot.

I would like to see what other people’s prediction/theories/opinions

See, that’s what the app is perfect for.
