so I saw this lovely art someone made, and i couldn’t help but immediately envision the next thing that was gonna happen….
EDIT: I didnt realise the pic didnt have the signature of the artist so imma straight up say its from @rodoodleart Thank you all for telling me, apologies!
EDIT OF THE EDIT: wait it does have the signature but anyway its not so noticeable so ill keep the previous edit for peeps who want to immediately see where the pic came from.
So when I saw this thanks to a Brazilian Birdie my mind went to Marichat. Then I remembered this little gem:
They’re touching it.
So in the reverse crush au, Adrien has a huge crush on Marinette. Would that mean Marinette would have a humongo crush on Chat?
Hey hey hey
Ladybug: Adrien Agreste, this is the Miraculous of the dog. You will agree to use it to protect Paris, and then to return it after this fight against Hawkmoth. Will you take it?
Adrien: …
Ladybug: …
Adrien: …no?
Ladybug: …why not?
Adrien: …photoshoot?
Yikes.
Admin: Soooo… I just went on a theory rant with my dear friend about why Chat Noir is holding his Cataclysm up like a gun in Troublemaker.
Most people are saying that he’s just being a total dork? But can I shed some light on something?
[[SPOILERS]]
We all know that nothing in Miraculous, by design or execution, is by accident. Chloe has stripes and a black and yellow design? Ended up getting the bee Miraculous.
In Rogercop, Chloe’s bracelet got stuck on Plagg’s head. There’s a particular design on the bracelet that we don’t see again until the last episode of the second season.
Mayura, using the peacock Miraculous (which is “damaged”). Plagg tells Adrien he cant transform because if the bracelet gets absorbed with him, it could damage the ring.
I also believe the fandom headcanon that Chat Noir hangs out at Marinettes place will become canon, because she has multiple cat plushies on her bed and around her room.
ANYWAY. Back to the point.
Here Chat is protecting Ladybug and wielding his Cataclysm like he’s about to fire it, which we know he can’t.
Or… can he?
In some of the early concepts for the creation of the show, Chat Noir is designed using a destructive ability called Black Storm, which kind of looks like a madoken.
So…
What if its foreshadowing for our heroes to have expansions to their powers?
(Oh God what have I become)
Welcome to my ted talk.
So I just watched Catalyst episode(now one of my favs this season whole series) and I just wanted to share my thoughts about it and how this episode foreshadows certain things that might happen in the last episode..
Marinette faces the task of doing a “heroic deed” (even though she is Ladybug) for her classmates during heroes day. She makes promises to them about preparing an “effortful” tasting of different foods for the whole school (something about cakes, pastries,fruits and stuff..I just based it off the subtitles lol)
Of course the whole class is enticed by her idea especially Adrien (the smol bean really took the time to ask his father if he could go😭)
She tries to convince her parents to help her bake the pastries but their hands are also tied up as well (LB cake for the Mayor) and they couldn’t do anything about it. Marinette doesn’t want to be a disappointment to her class since she has promised them that she will do it.
“I made a big commitment to my class… Now I’m going to disappoint them all.”
Her mom advices her: “There’s still some time to tell them the truth. Your friends will understand.”
She replies along the lines : “that wouldn’t be heroic though”
But her mom tells her this:
“Having the courage to face your mistakes, that’s heroic.”
Instantly she replies back saying:
That’s right! There’s time for me to make these macaroons myself! (Not listening to what her mom just said, she ends up having burnt macaroons for the class. Yum)
My point is this:
Throughout the whole show, we’ve seen Ladybug performing the impossible, doing things her own way and never giving in to other’s opinion. There may be times that her actions depends on other people’s opinions especially when she is Marinette.
In certain episodes, Marinette is also naive and indescisve of her own actions. She tries to either ignore, forget or hide her mistakes which shows her being “human” at some point. SHE AVOIDS CONTRONTATION.
Like in Befana, she doesn’t want to disappoint her grandmother so she decides to hide her true feelings about going to the party while being unaware of the consequences of her own actions to her grandmother.
Or her descision to chicken out last minute when it comes to confessing her feelings to Adrien.
Or her indesciveness when it comes to choosing between Adrien and Luka (you had two hands gurl. CHOOSE BOTH XD. Or just be with Kagami instead XD)
This is contrast to her persona as Ladybug who always seems brave, confident and somewhat decisive in making choices.
And almost all of the time, as Ladybug, she plans things and does things her own way. Although Chat Noir does help her out (even Carpace, Rena Rouge and Queen Bee), she always in control from planning to capturing the akuma.
But unknowingly, a storm is brewing.
This is where Catalyst comes in. The episode initiated change. It is not the change itself but the one merely responsible for it.
This episode poses as a sudden threat to not only the mircaulouses but also to that promise that Ladybug made in the first season: “protecting and keeping Paris safe from harm”.
This will be the starting breaking point that will initiate and foreshadow all conflicts in the last episode of the season which I believe is to happen at the “gala” mentioned by Natalie to Gabriel in the latest episode.
Basing from the current episode, my prediction is that the part 2 “Mayura” episode will begin where it last ended: the heroes may have prepared something for the occassion (of course) in the last scene of Catalyst.
In Mayura, this is where we begin to see Marinette’s shy and indecisive persona mainly emerging from Ladybug as the heroes try to defeat Catalsyt and Hawkmoth.
During S1&2, Ladybug, with Chat noir by her side, had to save and defend Paris from any impeding threat especially Hawkmoth. From a simple task: That’s a heavy burden to carry.
Until now, she faces a much bigger threat and she has all of the heroes by her side (which is awesome since this is the first time we meet them all together in one scene).
Yes, although there would be more hands to help her defeat Catalyst and Hawkmoth. There is also an increase chance of casualties present within the circle.
ThINK OF It. If ever any of them is captured/seized, one miraculous could become a major point for Hawkmoth’s side. By just seizing one of the heroes, hawkmoth could find a way to rat out the others thus, endangering not only themselves but also their families and even the whole of Paris!
Edit: Chat Noir could be a likely candiate for being one of the casualties in the last episode since he didn’t appear in the S3 poster👀
So just think of the burden and pressure that Ladybug has on her hands. Everything has to be perfectly planned out. A single blip, miss/error could practically ruin their chances of winning the game.
So, in Mayura, we could possibly see Ladybug and her gang following the plan to capture and defeat Hawkmoth. Everything goes perfectly but then-
the plan goes wrong.
A rising confict they didn’t expect, has happened.
Whether it is a reveal between characters/ Mayura being introduced in the episode/Natalie or Hawkmoth taking advantage of the situation
this idea might happen before the gala & the gala might be the cliff hanger for season 3. im calling it but i dont want that to happen
Inevitably, the heroes’ plan fails.
Similar to the incident wherein Marinette promises to make the food-tasting a reality in the catalyst episode.
We also begin to see Ladybug in a state of denial during the Mayura episode. She tries to keep everything under control but the plan goes horribly wrong. She tries to convince the heroes to keep on fighting but they couldn’t do it anymore. Similar to the response that she recieved from her parents, they simply can’t commit to do it. Fighting the akumas and saving Paris has come to a maximum limit.
Then, we begin to see the main breaking point: ladybug conflicted, once again, if she is really upto the task of defeating Hawkmoth & Catalyst.
Like in zombizou, now, the task is entirely upto her to fix the situation.
REMEMBER WHAT HER MOM SAID: “There’s still some time to tell them the truth. [They] will understand.” AND “Having the courage to face [it], that’s heroic.”
This is a long shot but I think her mom’s advice will help her at a crucial moment. Because this time, in order to resolve the problem: defeating Hawkmoth. First, she has to confront him. This is where the leaks of Ladybug with Hawkmoth in the secret basement perfectly fits. The episode will slowly unravel long-awaited truths the fandom has all been dying for since the first season. Ultimately, preparing the journey for season 3.
Ladybug gathers up her remaining her strength. Somehow, she captures Hawkmoth and seizes his Miraculous, but not realizing he and his akumas are just the cherry on top. Now, she has to look for the creme of the crop. The queen behind the King: Natalie Catalyst Mayura
While some of the heroes are looking catalyst (who somehow managed to become Mayura at this point), seeing that they have accomplished so much: uniting against all odds and “finally” defeating evil, they decided at some point to call off the search for her as they decide to celebrate (thru the gala) since this time, they have been captured Hawkmoth. (Not knowing her true powers)
Once again, Paris is now at peace and thanks to the heroes, everyone is safe from harm.
Or at least it seems to be.
As the gala begins, Mayura makes her debut as she disrupts the event, causing chaos
THEN-
Credits roll-
See you again the NEXT SeAsoN! 🙂🙃
BeCaUsE tHatS hOW THE SHoW WoRKS!
Sounds depressing right? But seeing the latest episode. Chat Noir uses cataclysm on himself… is this even a kid’s show? I won’t be surprised if they pull of a cliff-hanger that will leave the fandom devasted. (I call dibs on this)
But I hope her pals would step in to help her and use all of their remaining strength and power to stop whatever brewing storm may be in the last episode and everything ends with a happily ever after. i dont want a cliff hanger pls
So basically my theory for the Mayura episode:
- The episode will focus more on the heroes’ journey of defeating and discovering Hawkmoth’s true identity while setting up Mayura as the main villain for season 3
- Details about the Miraculous, Gabriel’s motif behind the miraculous and Momma Agreste will be further revealed
This might be too early but i still want this to happenThere will be a crucial point wherein heroes/villains may reveal their real identities to each other- The gala will either be the next main location in the episode wherein the heroes’ plan will take place or it will be the place wherein Mayura will be revealed after Hawkmoth is initially defeated by the heroes—cliffhanger for the next season
Thanks for coming to my ted talk.
