So, as a child abuse survivor and someone who has been sexually assaulted by men who think they're entitled to take what they want Adrien is canonically a god damned dick.
He sexually harrasses Ladybug. When told NO he once let 2.161 million people drown because he was busy throwing a tantrum
Being a victim of abuse does not excuse the abuse of others.
He might not mean any harm but you know who else doesn't mean any harm? Gabriel. My goddamned mother.
Not meaning harm- lacking malice- does not mean harm is not caused.
People are going on about him being a rich white guy because anyone else acting like that in public would be considered an antagonist (in fiction), in jail, or have an active warrant for their arrest. And that's assuming they aren't killed for it.
First off, I am truly very sorry for your experience. No one should have to go through that.
But I still do disagree.
Adrien's pushiness when it comes to expressing his affections for Ladybug are in the same boat as Marinette being a stalker or Chloe being pushy with Adrien: it's a joke. You may find it to be a poor one, certainly, but it's a joke nonetheless. Miraculous relies on this kind of humor, it's not meant to be taken seriously. You can have issues with it, but imho acting like it's any kind of legitimate criticism of his character probably makes people like me less inclined to listen to any actual criticisms you may have.
I don't say this to trivialize your experiences, and if the joke is hurtful to you, you are well within your rights to dislike it or talk about how it's in poor taste to make jokes about these things, but that's all it is, a joke. It's absurdist humor. It's not meant to be taken at face value. It would be creepy if Marinette seriously had Adrien's schedule mapped out, tried to break into his house, or stole his personal items, but it's not supposed to be that way because it's a joke.
And as for your complaint about Adrien leaving people to drown, you can go ahead and blame Master Fu for that one. It's stated quite clearly in the show that the heroes couldn't do anything because everything is underwater. And he's staying there because he's waiting for Ladybug. Making up imaginary civilians who are drowning now isn't a good criticism. Ladybug spends a good amount of time underwater, but there's no-one there. There's no civilian begging for Chat Noir's help as they drown while he ignores them, so suffice to say that we're supposed to assume everyone is safe and sound. This is a kids show, so unless we're shown that people are in danger, we aren't supposed to assume they are.
And then let's talk about Adrien almost quitting.
I'll say it straight: he has every right to quit. He's a 14-year-old kid. This isn't his job. He's well within his rights to quit if he feels like this is detrimental to him. And it isn't about Ladybug not returning his feelings like you seem to be implying. This is about Ladybug keeping secrets from him and leaving him in the dark even though he's supposedly her partner. It took a situation like this for Master Fu to pull his head out of his ass and come give Adrien the tools he needed to do the damn job you're accusing him of not doing. How is he supposed to do anything if he isn't given then necessary tools and knowledge to do it? Should he just accept that he's being ignored and left in the dark? Accept his new role as Ladybug's unquestioning lapdog?
This is not Ladybug salt btw, this is Master Fu salt only, in this house we don't like Master Fu.
Anyway.
Literally look at why he tries to quit.
Adrien:(grimly) If you don't tell me what Ladybug is hiding from me, I'm done! Plagg: You can't do that! Adrien:(bitterly) Why not? No one'll know if I quit. No one'll care!
He doesn't think he's needed. He doesn't think anyone would care if he quits.
This isn't because of any entitlement. It's because he's being cast aside and left in the dark. It's because his partner (it's not her fault either, to be clear, it's Master Fu's fault) is keeping secrets from him even in this time, so he assumes he isn't needed and decides to quit because he feels like he's unnecessary and unwanted, and that no one will care if he quits. Adrien already has very low self-worth, and this is just adding onto all that already. If it is detrimental to his mental health, then he definitely has the right to step aside and quit.
So yeah. If this ask was to get me to change my mind, I'm sorry, but it didn't. You're entitled to your opinion, of course, but I think I've made my opinion on the matter clear.

So I read the second part of your ml analysis which is very good btw, but I have two questions: 1. you say something about how Adrien would never give up being Chat bc of freedom and stuff, but he does so in syren (kind of) and in kuro neko. I mean, it would make sense that he wouldn‘t bc of the reasons you stated, I‘m there with you, but… that‘s not canon? There are instances where he gives up his hero life bc he‘s insecure of what LB thinks of him (which tbf seems ooc but still). And second, Luka didn’t know about Mari‘s secret identity at the time when they were together, and I wouldn‘t necessarily blame him for being upset at her for not being very present during their relationship. Idk maybe I misunderstood (in which case I‘m sorry) but he only learned about that later. (Or do you mean that if he was the main love interest, he would‘ve forgiven her for acting the way she did?)
I don‘t disagree with you at all, I was just confused about those two parts
I'll be honest, the original draft has been in the work for well over a few years now. So, it was initially written before season 4. Much of my information on the episodes moving forward is either clips or second-hand information.
(Being honest though, I don't feel like I miss much doing this. A lot, and I mean ALOT of MLB is padded fluff and not even good kind. I did keep up with recaps until season 4. Season 5 to me is a complete mystery. And I don't wanna find out. What little I have seen or been told, makes me question...so much).
That said.
You do have a point.
Adrien gives up "Chat Noir" on two occasions. 1) Despereada 2) Kuro-Neko.
(I'm not counting Syren because that was a threat, not really him giving it up, or following through.)
But here's the thing. We're both in the correct here. Because while Adrien "gives up" the Alter Ego of Chat Noir - in Desperada he does not give up being a Superhero.
He is just trying on a new mask. He still wants what he's always wanted "a home" and his "home" is Ladybug. He tries to please her, by being Aspik. His "wish" hasn't changed, he's figuring out if a new mask will be able to grant it.
And in the case of Kuro-Neko, I would liken it to a corrupted soul gem. Realising that the "wish" he made when he became Chat Noir is fruitless.
I said "[Ladybug] offers him [a place to belong], while Chat Noir lends him the means to show that “true self” he can’t allow to others. He would never give up his miraculous because it would mean losing all that."
But what happens if the first statement is false? What if Ladybug no longer represents a place where he belongs? What if he no longer feels like Chat Noir is his true self? If either of those fail, then what's the point of having an Alter Ego? That's when he gives it up.
The moment his wish is proven NOT to be granted by the Magical Power Up, he gives up his Alter Ego.
OOC, yes. But it has some (?) sort of internal logic.
However, the point of that specific part was simply to say that Chat Noir is a (slightly) better-constructed protagonist. Through seasons 1-3, he remains with this internal logic. Something that Marinette does not have, even at the very beginning.
Again, I do believe Kuro Neko could have worked - but giving it the 1 episode treatment ruined any shot at redemption it could have.
As for the Luka situation
I really was trying not to go into a tangent, within a tangent about how badly they handled Luka. So I sorta jumbled a lot of stuff together and mistyped a lot. It's actually quite understandable that I didn't make myself clear, I wasn't trying to.
I was vaguely gesturing at the problem. But, if you insist:
My main point is: I don't think he should feel entitled to information about his (relatively new) girlfriend.
That entire thing was, politely said, a dick move.
With my comparison to Tokyo Mew Mew, I was trying to prove that Luka did the one thing that no Magical Girl Male Lead should EVER do. It's antithetical to everything the genre stands for.
Marinette wasn't in the wrong for keeping ANY sort of secret from him that didn't relate to their relationship. Point blank. But, he feels so justified in this, that when he becomes an Akuma, he outrights forces everyone to give up Marinette's secret.
One that I would argue IS a huge deal in regards to their relationship. She still likes Adrien. But he says he already knows that.
And, apparently, does not care for it.
Okay then, why did he care for her other secret? What could have possibly been worse in his head to get into such a huge fight over?
And in the end, it doesn't even matter cause he does find out she's Ladybug afterwards!
He broke this girl's heart just bcs he couldn't handle she wasn't being 100% honest in a, what? 2-month-old relationship?
The entire thing is messy and weird, and meanspirited. I'm not a fan.
And that should be obvious. I compared Aoyama and Ichigo in a positive light to them.
I do not ship them. I don't even think they should have been endgame. I know that's an essay/rant for another day - but to somehow be worse than the most VANILLA of Magica Girl ships, the one ship anyone will tell you isn't the one they wanted. The one that everyone in the REMAKE is begging to be changed...
You fucked up.

MLB - Season 2 - Episode 14
Syren
Look at these two dorks (Kim and his girlfriend). Also, put your damn glasses on.
He did it again.
Tumblr media
I was about to comment on his eyeliner (dude's worse at it than me, and I suck at makeup) and he does it again. Fuck you, Gabe.
And off they go.
"I'm not done bribing you, yet."
Wow, it's almost like secrets and trust don't go exactly hand-in-hand.
Adrien gets to have exactly 3 seconds of "Oh no, I fucked up"
"I will have to find this guardian, wherever he is." Cut to said guardian being a few floors below, chatting with his son.

Do you think Max picked out Mechamonkeys vs Cybersharks 3 on purpose so that Chloe doesn't come and interrupt their time together? I like to think so.

Calmar de l'Enfer: Squid of Hell
I based his name off of the scientific name for vampire squids, Vampyroteuthis infernalis, which means 'vampire squid of hell'.
And once again... Syren, but with NathMarc.

Okay, so I've seen the episode Syren from Miraculous Ladybug is used as a measure of just how deadly akumas can be a lot.
The Akuma drowned most of Paris, and we see almost no survivors on the rooftops other than the twenty or so people at the movie theater that Marinette was at,
Tumblr media
And master Fu.
Tumblr media
There are over 2 million people in Paris. Unfortunately, I think it’s even worse than that.
Tumblr media
In the episode, we see five-story buildings completely submerged. Assuming that she didn’t just put Paris in a big bubble, Syren would have needed to raise the global water level by around 70m to submerge Paris like she did.
Here’s what would happen if the sea level was raised by 70 meters:
Paris 2 million
Tumblr media
London 9 million
Tumblr media
The state of Florida 21 million
Tumblr media
Beijing 21 million
Tumblr media
Shanghai 26 million
Tumblr media
And like, the entire east coast of the US.
Tumblr media
It uh... that isn't pretty.
Here's a link to the map if you want to check it out:

“I think part of the reason why people dislike Mari salt is that, yes extreme stans, but also because the fic winds up being an Adrien Stan love letter. Like so many of them have a plot where Marinette is like "oh, she's so mean and selfish to Chat Noir for constantly rejecting him" despite the fact that he needs to learn to take no for an answer. Both have issues that need to be addressed.
Including the fact that Chat threw a tantrum in Frozer and Syren and REFUSED TO HELP. Marinette definitely needs to reel in that jealousy. And the stalkerish behavior. And I hate that were never gonna get that, because Thomas “Adrien is perfect in every way and everything is Marinette’s fault” Astruc won’t let them grow.”

I was rewatching Syren and I found myself shuddering at the foreshadowing. At some point, Ondine said “my prince”, and I immediately had a flashback of Chat Blanc, Marinette saying the same thing in an episode that’s about having discovered the secrets in between them, while Syren was about not being able to overcome those secrets, which created a gap between them. And then Rena’s presence, which wasn’t unintentional at all because then, she represented the first crack of the wall, and now, she’s the greatest crack of the wall, of their relationship. She was, is and will be the flag that alerts Chat that something’s changed between them. Because he hates secrets. And at some point, he won’t stand the crack anymore.
