Rewatching "Crocoduel" for the first time after a long while made me realize just how unneeded Tigresse Pourpre was in it. It was genuinely just a case of Ladybug giving her civilian friend a miraculous to make her feel better, acknowledged and empowered.
But the battle itself could have perfectly fine gone without Tigresse Pourpre. She had no purpose there. The excuse for why she was there was that for some reason Ladybug and Chat Noir pretended like their space power up don't exist so they can fly up in the sky to the ship and then later on when said ship is diving towards the ground Ladybug tells Tigresse to "hold them [Juleka's parents] at bay".
But for real, if the episode hadn't forced Ladybug and Chat Noir to NOT have their power up with them (or even acknowledge that they exist) it legitimately would have clear-cut been Marinette giving the Tiger miraculous out for no reason as a little treat for Juleka to feel better and feel inspired by.
And I'm sorry, but as much as I love Juleka as Tigresse Pourpre - and thank goodness Chat Noir was treated well in the episode, thats RARE - but that really isn't the purpose for why the miraculous should be given out. Just like that Penalteam disaster of 4 new miraculous holder bc Ladybug agreed to play soccer for a while instead of solving the damn akuma, cases like this inherently devalue the miraculous and it's sad that Marinette's leadership is sometimes written in a way where the miraculous aren't allowed to be treated like the important and valuable ancient artifacts they are; and the way Su-Han did call her out for it in "Ephemeral" but it wasnt allowed to be taken serious at all cause he's a man who yelled.
This isn't "Paris comes first", this was Ladybug unnecessarily giving a dangerous miraculous out like candy bc she couldn't seperate her civilian life from her hero work.

Stupid MLB 'Rewrite' Lore Dump!: Jagged Stone and the Waifs of Wonderland
Luka Couffaine, the frontman of Vampire Revival and notorious cheater, is nothing but the spitting image of his father. The only thing Jagged Stone (or, as he was born, Jack Zimmerman) had that Luka doesn't is that he combined the two.
(whole ass fake article under the cut)
Founded in 1978, Jagged Stone and the Waifs of Wonderland owed its inspirations to the psychedelic movements of the 1960s as well as musical giants such as David Bowie and The Rolling Stones. Their first album, titled "Jagged Stone and the Waifs of Wonderland" was not a commercial success, but in recent years has amassed a following of fans who prefer the older psychedelic style of this album. In contrast, the second album, "A Kiss Too Far", was an instant hit that took on a much more "glam rock" aesthetic, helping popularize the style in France and Germany.
Much like his glam rock contemporaries, Jack Zimmerman took on a flamboyant, ostentatious, and occasionally androgynous style in his performances, and encouraged his bandmates--the aforementioned "Waifs of Wonderland"--to do the same. Each also adopted a stage name ending in "-ka". Drummer Anne "Anarka" Couffaine, Rhythm guitarist Ellen "Elvenka" Blackwell, Bassist Lucy "Lunoka" Müller, and Keyboardist Tori "Tonika" Blackwell are considered the most recognizable "Waifs of Wonderland", though other instrumentalists and artists have been featured in JSWW albums and been given their own "Waif Names" accordingly.
Aside from their music, Jagged Stone and the Waifs of Wonderland is best known for the sheer amount of scandal they used to further drive publicity. Zimmerman was reported to be in committed relationships with all permanent "Waifs" at various points in the band's career, with later testimonies by band members reporting that Zimmerman was involved with no less then two relationships simultaneously (though it was not confirmed whether these stayed within the band itself). This caused significant strife for the band in their later years, notably leading Anne Couffaine to formally leave the group in 1988, shortly preceding the births of Luka Marcel and Juliette Élise Couffaine.

oh boy, there we go. if you got this far (or skipped past to get here), thank you :) tell me if y'all want to see more lore drops like this! mostly stuff for worldbuilding that isn't related to the main plot, obvi.
also, if it wasn't clear by the fact that i decided that Nino's name is now Nicolas Lahiffe... I like giving them all new names :) That, and because TWEOS is set nebulously around 2008-09, I changed the timeline of everything accordingly. :)))))

the amount of people who willfully continue to misunderstand the conversation at the beginning of crocoduel makes me want to eat a cinder block
Alya: Hey, aren't we all going to see the Rock and Monster Party Parade together this Saturday? What if, instead of going to the movies, we had a party right here on the houseboat! For Juleka's birthday... and Luka's!
the original plans never involved luka, they straight up changed the plan to include luka specifically to force marinette to interact with them. marinette wasn’t asking them to uninvite luka to “his own party,” because the original plans marinette had agreed to for the weekend was to go to the movies with her friends, only for them to change those plans at the last minute. and then she wasn’t allowed to back out, despite having no input in the change in plans or who was invited.
the “party” didn’t exist until that conversation and the entire reason for it was to force her into talking to him. she should’ve been able to say no in the first place but her asking him not to come isn’t disinviting him to his own party because the party didn’t exist until that conversation at the beginning.
#miraculous ladybug#ml salt#ml fandom salt#i usually just try to pretend crocoduel doesn’t exist because i don’t like being salty at canon#but then i see people salting at marinette for it#and geez i hope y’all don’t treat your friends like that when they break up with their ex#forcing women to make nice with their ex when they say they don’t want to is hugely fucked up#even if you think he’s a nice guy#because you don’t know what he was like with her behind closed doors#if a girl says ‘i am uncomfortable around that man’ maybe just fucking listen to her

Which ML Akumas would make great Cuphead bosses?
-Those marked with a plane (✈️) would be plane-style bosses-
Well, to be honest, all the Akumas would qualify as Cuphead bosses, so the ones that can be fought in a Cuphead-style boss battle, but aren’t limited to, are:
✈️ Sandboy
Timebreaker
Refleckta
The Bubbler / Rockettear [Bubbler shifts into Rockettear in the last phase]
✈️ Crocoduel [Guitar Villain and Captain Hardrock, boss fight where they’re actually against each other]
Dearest Family [Qilin, Weredad, Befana and Bakerix]
Desperada
✈️ Reverser
Horrificator
Stormy Weather
Animan
The Pharaoh
✈️ Mr Pigeon
Lady Wifi
✈️ Rogercop [with the flying cop car and everything]
Antibug
Rena Rage + Shell Shock
✈️ Kuro Neko [not an Akuma, but you know what I mean]
Silencer
So what do you guys think? How do you think their battles would play out? What would their game over quotes be? Let me know in the reblogs!

In light of the recent page of Scarlet Lady AU Crocoduel dropping today, I’d like to clarify for the number of my readers who’ve stopped watching Miraculous Ladybug before “Crocoduel” came out.
The explanation for why Anarka and Jagged broke up? Completely pulled out of my ass.
For the record, the canon episode (and season) never tells us why the two broke up in the first place. At most you get from Jagged Stone in “Truth” that he was “too lame” to take care of kids - he tours all the time, lives out of hotels, has a pet crocodile - which was a pretty solid explanation. Anarka wanted to stop that lifestyle to take care of her children and Jagged was unwilling to quit when they were ahead, so they broke up.
But then came in “Crocoduel” with Anarka and Jagged both blaming the OTHER PERSON for the break up, which doesn’t go along with Jagged’s “I live the life of a rock-n-roller and wasn’t willing to give that up” explanation. Thus, it’s still an unanswered question.
But despite that, it was kinda The Point that there wasn’t a Reason they broke up - because sometimes there just isn’t one. Things don’t work out, people don’t co-parent well, personalities clash, priorities don’t align. Sometimes there’s no One Event or Big Reason. People just forget why they started fighting but remember to be angry. Hell, that’s what killed Romeo and Juliet - a feud that no one remembered starting.
The only problem with this, and why I personally felt like I had to change the whole thing, is that it makes Jagged Stone to be a total asshat. You know what we call people who don’t take responsibility for the children they created because of their selfish desire to live a life of self indulgence without inconvenience? A Deadbeat Loser. Season 4 made Jagged Stone a Deadbeat Loser.
And I hated that.

Thank you for that crocoduel post. The amount of people that salted on Marinette made my blood boil. Like imagine you being uncomfortable interacting with someone, not ready to meet them and you know they want to get together with you again. No wonder she decided to cut Luka out of the plan. Was it a good idea? Maybe not. But knowing Alya and the gang planning to get them together, that wasn't a good move from them.
this is way late but yeah!!! and the thing is marinette TRIED just not going. she tried reasoning with alya. she tried doing it the right way. but that didn’t work so she tried asking juleka. she shouldn’t have been in that position at all! and yeah it wasn’t fair to put juleka in that position either but marinette realized that and apologized!!! and juleka, the wronged party, forgave her, but fandom didn’t, which, if you’ve kept up with the fandom discourse on the ladynoir conflict, sounds pretty familiar, huh?
