This is a PSA

Stormy Weather 2 was a good episode and here’s why (Spoilers ahead):

While there was a ton of old footage used, it serves a great purpose in showing what is internally important to each character. This is especially needed because we see most of the show following Marinette. This episode is not about the Akuma, it’s about character growth and the flashbacks show how they are learning from past mistakes, and sets the stage for a lot of important things to happen soon in the season.
Everyone seems to be ignoring the fact that it has been confirmed that Emilie Agreste is not actually dead so I’m bringing it up: Emilie Agreste is not dead. Nathalie said that she slowly fell into an eternal sleep. This could possibly be a result of the damage to the peacock miraculous.
Nathalie is still affected by her transformation into Mayura, this can lead to a variety of different future plot points, including her fate being similar to Emilie’s.
Nooroo calls Gabriel out on his lack of affection toward his son. This could lead to future plot points.
Marinette makes a real effort to get more comfortable around Adrien. This shows how she is growing as a character and really sets up for some good things to happen in future episodes.
The DjWifi scene where they reflect on how they met and got together was so important. It shows us how Hawkmoth’s appearance has really changed the lives of each person in Paris, not just Adrien and Marinette.
The Akuma attack was shown following regular citizens instead of the heroes. We haven’t seen an attack from this perspective before. We usually don’t think much of it, Ladybug and Chat Noir will always save the day, after all, but in this episode we see the fears of those who live average lives and it’s incredibly important.
Adrien almost grows a brain cell and figures out that Mari likes him, almost. While it is extremely frustrating that his ultimate conclusion is that she’s just a friend who’s into fashion, it’s still important because he brings it up as a possibility and gets his mind off of Ladybug.
In Conclusion: Stop bitching about this episode barely having any new content because it has a ton. It brings a whole new perspective into the picture and sets up for an amazing, plot and growth filled season.

Treating yourself is rewatching Stormy Weather for:

really impressive special FX with Stormy Weather’s glowy powers and weather atmosphere

how refreshing it is that the battle scenes are in a darker and cloudier environment instead of the super bright usual day environment, which really sets the dramatic mood, and also makes everything look really nicely rendered. can you IMAGINE if Catalyst or Mayura had this incredibly dramatic atmosphere:

(LOOK AT LADYBUG’S REFLECTION ON HIS EYES AND HIS BELL! NOW THAT IS REALLY DETAILED RENDERING, HOLY SHIT!)

STORMY WEATHER’S CHARACTER DESIGN AND SASSY MOVEMENTS ARE 👌 👌 👌 👌 👌 👌 👌 they gave her a lot of personality i love it (looks at this 90s anime villain laugh)

those amazingly animated action scenes where the extremely badass rotate-y camera movement combined with INTERESTING CAMERA ANGLES make the ACTIONS SCENES THAT MUCH WICKED

that hella juicy cinematography where you can tell the foreground is more focused during certain shots (pay attention to how the background is more blurred)

HOW FUCKIN DRAMATIC IT WAS WHEN AURORE GOT AKUMATIZED

like, most of the time the character just feels sad and doesn’t notice the akuma coming towards them and they just get akumatized. thats it. but HERE, THE LIGHTING CHANGES, WE SEE THE AKUMA SUSPENSEFULLY COME IN THE ELEVATOR AND FLY TOWARDS HER, SHE ACTIVELY TRIES TO BAT IT AWAY. IT’S REAL SPOOKY SHIT. it’s little details like this that make the conflict feel much more dramatic and cooler
how you are transported back to September 2015 when watching this episode because it’s most likely one of the earliest, if not the first, episodes you’ve watched. You remember how our expectations for the show’s quality is just set that high because of this one episode

agreed ive always felt that ep was underated miraculous ladybug stormy weather ml
