You do know that Marinette could have dropped the “Adrien is already in love” bomb, right?
But wait! …if Lila finds out… sure, Kagami could easily kick her ass, but her weakness seems to be her reputation… and Lila can… and Kagami will…
…my sweet…
*grabs a hold of every ML writer’s collars*
Kagami would drag Lila’s bullshit out first chance she gets. I seriously doubt Lila is any threat to Kagami, and I would love to see Kagami verbally annilate Lila
Miraculous Ladybug S03 E01 teaches a really crappy lesson to children. Here’s the ENTIRE episode so you can watch it for yourself. https://youtu.be/wn2Lx4Rwb1U For the most part, it was good, up until the point where Adrien convinces Marinette to let Lila go and continue lying. I’m sorry, but that’s a really terrible lesson to be teaching to children, especially considering MLB’s target demographic. No, you do not just let someone off scott-free with lying. What Marinette’s been doing–handling the issue aggressively–is also wrong, but just sitting around and letting Lila continue to lie and manipulate the people around her is also wrong. It’s very, very wrong. It’s a terrible lesson to teach children. At the very least, I GENUINELY expected Marinette or Adrien to offer to stand by Lila and keep her in check. But I hear you: “Oh! But Lila doesn’t want to change. There’s no convincing her or talking sense into her.” But is that really an excuse to let her keep lying? I don’t think so. Yeah, she has a really thick skull–some people ARE like that in real life. But that doesn’t mean we should just let them continue what they’re doing just because they’re difficult to deal with. We don’t just give up, especially if they’re manipulating people around them and spreading BS about themselves and other people. tl;dr, MLB has its first serious dud with me with this lesson. A terrible, terrible thing to teach to impressionable children.
I really love @lunian‘s idea for an akuma!Marinette, so I decided to try and draw her:D
Okay I WISH that in the new sneak peek when Lila mentioned that thing about jagged stone that marinette had just been like “oh!! I’ll have to remember to ask him about that next time I see him!” 🙂 because marinette is like… arguably friends with jagged, and even if she’s not, she Does have a professional relationship with him because of the designs she’s done for him
If Marinette is forced to apologize to Lila (which I am pretty sure is gonna happen considering she’s always apologizing, even if she wasn’t the one at fault), I hope she says something along those lines after apologizing to Lila. Like:
Marinette: “I’m sorry, Lila. I shouldn’t have doubted you, and it was wrong of me to confront you the way I did, especially since you’re still new in class. I would love to hear more about Jagged’s kitten though. Maybe I’ll ask him next time I see him.”
Lila: “Oh, you know Jagged Stone too? (assuming Marinette is lying because Lila herself lies about knowing celebrities all the time)”
One of the classmates: “Yeah, we had a day where we got jobs at Le Grand Paris, and Marinette became Jagged’s personal assistant.”
Another classmate: “She even made him those eiffel tower sunglasses!”
Another classmate: “Or remember when Jagged hired her personally to design an album cover because he was so happy with Marinette’s sunglasses?”
Another classmate: “That’s nothing! He even personally asked to have Marinette’s parents’ bakery be where he worked for that ‘Fill My Shoes’ show!”
Lila: *sweating bullets as she realizes Marinette is either a way better liar than her, or actually knows Jagged Stone*
Rose: “Oh, that reminds me; I gotta ask Prince Ali about you the next time I see him.”
Lila: *realizes there is no escape from the hole she has dugged herself into*
I hope that Marinette will remember that she actually knows Jagged and still has his number to call/text him about this whole kitten thing.
The horror on Lila’s face would be delightful.
Oh my god, Marinette calling up Jagged in front of the whole class, putting him on speakers, and asking him about his “good friend” Lila Rossi who “hurt her hearing saving his kitten” which he had before he “found out he’s allergic”
and the students just hear Jagged shout: “PENNY! WHO’S LILA ROSSI!?!”
Penny: “Jagged, you don’t know anyone called Lila Rossi!”
Jagged: “THEN WHO SAVED MY KITTEN!?!”
Penny: “You’ve never had a kitten!”
Jagged: “BUT HOW DID I DISCOVER I WAS ALLERGIC TO CATS THEN!?!”
Penny: “You don’t have a cat allergy! You were tested two years ago!”
Jagged:…
Jagged: “THEN HOW DID LILA GET TINITUS!?!”
Penny: “I DON’T KNOW! I ALREADY TOLD YOU; WE DON’T KNOW A LILA ROSSI!!!”

Y’all I’m pissed that Lila is getting akumatized again. If the spoilers are accurate to the tone of the new episode, this should be Marinette’s akuma and it should either be at the end of the season or be a multi-episode arc like fucking Queen Bee got for no good reason where Marinette is akumatized, Ladybug has vanished, and the class has to deal with knowing that they did that to her. That they pushed their “everyday Ladybug” so far that no one knows how to fix it.
Like I’m not about Marinette being akumatized over something petty like Chloe but this new episode looks like it’s taking things too far based on everything I’ve seen about it.
Step 1, Have Marinette leave the room, have Chloé stand up and say "What is wrong with you people?“
Step 2 Have Chloé point out that she does not like Marinette for a ton of reasons, but being a bully isn’t one of them. Making class, (except Lila) feel horrible.
Step 3. Have Chloé then tell them they all suck, especially Alya, then walk out to go get Marinette. (If we are gonna have everyone be out of character, make Chloé be actually redeemable)
that I am 10000% disappointed at Alya for just shooing Marinette away like that and being okay with her best friend sitting alone at the back, and at Adrien for glaring at Marinette when she’s done nothing wrong and he knows perfectly well how much of a liar Lila is. (And also the rest of the class because my goodness, why are you treating Mari like she’s a bully when she’s the one being mistreated??? Y’all owe Mari an apology.)
