Is it sacrilege to say I prefer Marinette with a deeper voice? I don't like how shrill she is in later seasons.

Everytime you think Adrien is a stereotypical anime protagonist remember his normal voice actor, Bryce Papenbrook voices THE most stereotypical anime protagonists like: Eren yeager (attack on titan) Kirito (SAO) Meliodas (seven deadl sins) Shiro Emiya (Fate) Not that its a bad thing, just a little interesting.

"You were perfect as usual" No, she wasn't. She was focused more on being mad at Chat, and wasn't focusing on the villain at hand. In turn, she distracted Chat, which allowed the villain to take advantage of the situation and he used Chat to destroy Uncanny Valley. It was just as much her fault as it was his

as a european ive gotta say france has a diverse enough population, especially in paris, for it not to be an excuse. if they were in poland id get it, but france?

Reminder that the class was pushing Adrien to cheat Kagami with Marianette.

Honestly, I'm super confused on why Ladybug and Chat Noir don't use the jetsuits all the time, I mean, it lets them use all of their abilities + flight!

"Just like an anime protagonist" This actually has an anime, they reference that is season 5 I think? They have cardboard cutouts of the anime versions. Anyways, the NY special was better than I was expecting. It was pretty decent all-in-all.

It felt like the Adrienette scenes were absolutely forced.

5:10 Am I the only one who remembers that at this point, per the special being *after* the season 3 finale, that both Adrien and Marinette are *canonically* dating Kagami and Luka respectively at this point? That's the thing that always bothered me about this special, the fact that Adrien and Marinette are seeing other people makes both Alya and Nino look like assholes and horrible friends for trying to shove the two together while they are already in committed relationships, as if they're trying to get their friends to commit infidelity. Aeon and Jess did it too but they don't know about either Kagami or Luka so they get a pass. What makes this even more galling is the fact that one of the two's significant others is the brother of their other friend, Juleka, who probably wouldn't take kindly to Marinette taking advantage of her brother's trust in her nor the fact that Alya is pushing her to do that. This subplot was just a really bad idea since with that knowledge in mind, it makes the shipping moments less "cute" and more "cheating". And keep in mind that these are supposed to be the heroes who, according to Thomas Astruc, "deserve to have their Miraculous" since "mean people don't and never will deserve a Miraculous". So tell me, what messages does this send to the audience? That it's okay to go off into another country with someone else while your significant other is back home and have intimate moments with that person while your partner is unaware? That this is a thing "nice" people do? If that's the type of message you send with your show, then you need to learn more about morals.

Okay to me the New York special has a lot of plot holes like how how does the superheroes have the powers?... I mean it mostly left me pretty confused I was eager to know so much more about this heroes. But it was good.

The ONLY PROBLEM with New York and Shanghai specials is that they are NEVER MENTIONED in the 4th season or those "cute" more "into each other" scenes like dancing in the air and everything are GONE. Like let's be honest - in those specials Marinette and Adrien have more "fewer friends more lovers" relations, but watching season 4 I feel like we are back in season 3, and those moments of "friend like you" are gone and we are back with only literally regular friend. The only mention was in season 1 actually, bc the "Captain Marvel" was on the cover of a magazine when Marinette and Alya met. But like in season 4 we have NOTHING of those characters from NYC or Shanghai, no info about them, about their miraculous, or literally about the events the main characters had in those cities.

Fun fact: The American superheroes actually first appeared in the short lived and much less known Miraculous comics. So for people like me who did know about them, this was great seeing them animated.

I still find hilarious how the New York streets in that dramatic under the rain scene are completely EMPTY like... There's no way New York streets late at night are empty. Also the robot girl still looks like a Monster High rip-off to me. But hey,I'm happy you could've enjoyed this wonderful mess of a special lol

Am I the only one that wants Negative to cosplay as Felix?

I know a lot of people hated the New York special, but I really enjoyed it. It was fun and entertaining to watch (especially Adrienette and Ladynoir). I also liked the new characters, they were nice touches! *Edit* When I said it was fun and entertaining to watch, I never mentioned the story line. I was talking about the scenery, the characters, and pretty much the plot as a whole. I didn’t really care about character growth in this episode. The main reason I liked watching it with my mom was because you didn’t have to watch every single episode in order to understand what was happening. Plus, it’s a special, not an episode so I feel like it was supposed to be different.

10:50 FYI according to Thomas Astruc the creator of the show; this movie was originally created to be 2 hours long instead of one hour like it did; they actually had a full script ready for it. But for various reasons like the budget that was too small, the time limit to release the movie approaching, etc... they had to make it smaller and that's why it feels like it was wrapped up in the end with many loose ends. And to do so they had to cut short on the sub and secondary character story: "Cat Noir, Mrs. Mandeleiev, Chloe, Sabrina,..." and focused on the essential.

Love how they’re like “keep it” to an artefact that was technically stolen from a museum and they’re meant to be the good guys…

I red somewhere that the movie was originally supposed to be 2 hours long and it was changed at the last second so that can explain the pacing issues.

am i the only one who is bothered by the fact that they brought in another set of miraculous just like bam this is a thing now? idk it was just really sudden and kinda confusing, especially because master fu said that when the guardians of the miraculous collapsed, all the miracle boxes other than the one he had (the one we know) were lost

Omg u were so right about Kagami and Luka i didnt even thought about that possibility,they could have put them to protect the Paris

I only have one problem with it, that the robot girl can't see Plagg at all I would have it be that plagg is a glitch/studder in her vision to show that she is alive even if it is an artificial life form

Personally, I wish Marionette's voice stayed deep in season 4, and I feel like things could've really progressed from this movie, like it did in the first few episodes afterwards, before spiralling back down as if Adrian was never making moves on Marionette in New York (which he did like every minute). But if you think Marionette was overreacting about Adrien in this movie, it is so much worse in the Shanghai special lol.

they've already set the power ups up in previous episodes lol like ladybug and chat noir can eat those cool little macaroons and cheeses, which are different colours, and they get cool powers and stuff (idk if you were joking or not and I don't know whether you covered this in your previous vid so uh I have bad memory so sorry if you already knew this) the new york special is great to me, especially the first part before the angst

"I'm not mad just disappointed," is what I feel with some of the writing in this show.

I loved the Shanghai special more but ill never hate this one ♥

There is talk of a spin off of miraculous but we don’t know what the spin off of the show will be about yet.

I respect the fact you managed to enjoy this movie. It was just PAINFUL for me to watch, because it was clear the writers had no intention of progressing anything and just wanted to make irrelevant characters appear to be relevant by forcing them in a popular show. I mean, Kagami and Luca are left behind so they can't interfere with Adrinete moments, Chloe is immediately back to her season 1 shenanigans and personality without suffering any consequence for betraying Ladybug at the end of season 3, and a new Celestial Guardian shows up at the end of the movie only to never be relevant in the series after that! I'm glad you managed to find joy in watching this special, because all I felt was that I wasted my time.

I also liked The New York special. (Please dont attack me.)

I just hate it because it's supposed to take place after season 3 and after Adrien is in a relationship with kagami and marinette with Luka... So that means that their friends Didn't have a problem with them cheating...

The Hot Dog character reminds me of DC's Condiment King. What if the US had a superhero who worked at sandwich chain, and when arriving on the scene, she could say a cheesy (Get it?) catchphrase like "Did someone order a hero?".

Majestia(?) and the Dark Owl were actually mentioned in previous seasons! In the origins ep, Alya mentions Majestia and that episode with the principle getting akumatized, he’s cosplaying the Dark Owl. Both are only comic book characters until this special though

Plagg really should have confessed that it was his idea not to tell Ladybug

I hate this special specifically because Kagami and Adrien are dating and then HIS FRIENDS are STILL trying to get him and Marinette together. Like why is the show saying it's okay to try to get your friend to cheat because your other friend is his OTP.

One of the fundamental problems I have with this special is the inclusion of other heroes in this world. It took a while for the show to establish that other kinds of super powers other than the Miraculous exists. Like...it technically isn't a bad thing, it just wasn't obviously established and brings up questions: how did these people get powers? Why don't we hear about them more often in the news? Why doesn't Paris have natural super heroes (i.e. heroes who have powers and don't use miraculous)? Is this world like My Hero Academia where some percentage of the world is born with super powers? Why does the U.S. need super heroes? Do they have that many villains? Why doesn't Paris have villains other than Hawk Moth? Are we to assume that Paris is a utopia without Hawk Moth? If Paris does have heroes that don't use miraculous, then why havent they been helping? Even if for some reason they can't help the akumatized people, can't we establish that? They can at least help with damage control. So yes, many questions. Also, this special continues the stupid and lazy trend of characters saying how Mari and Adrien are "made for each other." The show does this more than once, and, in this special, coming from someone who doesn't even know them is annoying. We already know these two will end up together, show, you don't need to keep telling us D'X Also also, when Uncanny Valley relays Ladybug's message to Adrien, wasn't Mari in her civilian form? How did Adrien not recognize Mari's voice? I can buy magic shenanigans making them look different and even making them sound different when transformed, but they should recognize their civilian voices. **sigh** So yeah, I take some issues with this special...and MLB in general. However, Negative, I do appreciate you taking the time out to review this and your hard work in making this video. And I'm glad you enjoyed this special. Thanks for everything that you do! ^_^

I feel like ...in a alternate universe where. 1. Season 3 never happened 2. Kagami sadly never existed This would've been a great launching point to reverse their crush dynamic. Adrian could be sorting his feelings about the kiss/ Marinette starting a relationship with Luka and realizing his feelings for Marinette. Ladybug could, after loosing Chat Noir, realize how much she cares for chat noir and start having somefeelings for him. Cementing at least SOME PROGRESSION with the love square. But sadly that's not what happened...

This special honestly met (the very low) standard I have for miraculous, so I was pretty happy with it. If there was one thing to critique though, I really dislike how the whole marinette friendzoning adrien thing never went anywhere in season 4. The writers for this show are TERRIBLE at establishing continuity.

1:02 I noticed that too when I watched this! It’s like they took the voice actress’s voice and just raised the deep setting a smidge

I think what it is is that the American heroes appeared in a Miraculous comic, but this was their debut outside of that.

Can't wait til they review the Shanghai special. I think this one was fine tho.

7:50 Power was used for evil, Lafayette used it for other men to fight for freedom, in this case for good

Marian and adrian have a friendship without the friend

After the first watching, I didn't have many problems with it but over time I just realized how many flaws their are in this special. Like how focused Alya was (and has been) to get Marinette together with Adrien even though she showed that she wanted to move on. In the rain scene, Marinette was obviously exhausted and sad but Alya insisted that she should have been the one to reach out to Adrien when Nino or any of his other classmates could have done that. That lead to Marinette feeling even more emotionally drained and crying out in the rain after chasing his car. Alya and Ninos whole role in the movie was centered around Adrienette even though they could have focused on each others relationship, help Marinette move on, etc. Anything other than encouraging them to cheat on their girlfriend/boyfriend. I won't even open the can of worms that is the controversy about Uncanny Valley's design.

i expected the New York special video much later but yay : D

I can understand how having a native superhero is cool, but I myself is native. And I personally find her design very offensive to my culture, the way how she looks normally is very offensive and feels very stereotyped, and the design of her superhero uniform is very basic and I don't enjoy it. The eagle represents love which is fact I don't think they were going for but it's something I do like. But other than that I find this very offensive.

Honestly as much as i lovedd Shanghai(i watched it live on tf1 on tv was so exciting) , the New york one has a special place bcoz of the small character development!

Now you need to immediately forget everything from this because it has no weight nor bearing on the show at a because Astruc doesn't care about plot or characterization.

1:50 the writers will never let her move on the drama is needed for them 😂😂😂

7:16 “This just got good…” Yeah so good that you don’t mention the animation error of Tiki’s antenna falling off

I am so glad that you made this video

0:31 I wonder how many people were expecting them to form a crossover team à la Avengers.

Tbh, miraculous is my favourite guilty pleasure but I can't ignore the plot holes like how the robot record ladybugs voice and somehow the magic stills makes her voice unrecognisable despite technology could not record or capture the magic (like the kwami etc). And how marinette blew off too hard on chat noir and others. Also, the there's too many plots going on yet didn't execute well like Sabrina's crush on the guy but the the subject didn't appear after that moment.

10:04 I think the reason he can't tell her emotions is bc his whole life barley had emotions, like Natalie, his bodyguard, even Gabriel, are almost like robots! he hasn't experienced much love & emotion, other that when Emilie was around still

Wait if there's boxes worth of miraculous in multiple countries, why is the entire show focused on one city in one country? Why did Master Fu go to Paris with them where Gabriel, who would go on to threaten to hurt people to get the Miraculous via his akuma, happened to live? It would clearly be easier for him to just hunt down an unprotected miraculous from another country right? There's other Guardians but they apparently don't do their job well or the Eagle one wouldn't have been in a museum the whole time and Fu wouldn't have been in such deep trouble with the loss of his temple, right?

When Alya says America is the land of the free, it surprised me for a second, because that's like she's saying "The country that I am from is not free."

Negative: Is it just me or does ladybug soun- Nerf Advert:THE NEW NERF 2.0

1:30 Austruc said Adrinette was endgame, so I never expected her to get over him.

at this point, i'm really just waiting for the spinoffs

I just couldn't get into it because of their weird voices.

Yooooooo a new video Pog . I love this guy .

Right on time yeaaaah

DO THE SEASON 4 VIDEO!!! it's almost compl.

“I wouldn’t mind being stuck here a little longer with a *FRIEND* like you”

tbh the only thing i liked about this special was that they finally explained how no one can recognize them,should've been done way sooner

I forgot the captain marvel rip off's name but if u ask me its kinda like a captain marvel with a bit of wonder woman in the outfit

1:38 the field trip wasnt that much of a surprise but their teacher being pregnant was definitely more of a surprise

I saw the special in french but wow why does Marinette's voice sound so different here compared to the series :o

If I shut my brain off and don't think about it too much, I like this special. It's got interesting ideas and moments in it, it's self contained, and it has decent-ish payoff moments. As a collection of this special and the TV series, I hate it. It breaks the magic system and world building. If there's already competent superheros in NYC, why didn't Master Fu just go there and hide? When hawkmoth attacked Paris initially, why didn't the USA hero's go help? Captain Marvel can clearly fly into outer space, surely she can get to Paris. And having other magical heros in the world minimizes the importance of the miraculous. If each region of the world has it's own box and guardians, where's the European box? Master Fu is clearly from Asia, so he has the Chinese zodiac/Asian miraculous. And why would he have extras like ladybugs, black cats, peacocks, butterflies, foxes, etc? And also WHERE IS THE EUROPEAN MIRACULOUS BOX? I also love the Native American and Android girls. Love them. But it rubs me the wrong way that the first cannon death we had was of the very few black characters. And it's irritating AF that Jesse is a Native American dressed entirely in red, white, and blue and in patterns that resemble Captain America. Even though her shirt is allegedly based off the Oglala flag that she is descended from, they changed the design from the 9 tipi to blue triangles. Her beadwork earrings look great, and her hair leather wrap hair is nice, but the massive red white and blue theme feels really.... wrong. Considering how the Native Americans were/are treated by the USA? It just struck me as sleezy to dress her up in those specific, iconic colors. I wanted more of the chat noir and ladybug dynamic. More about their cooperation and internal disagreements. And having the world have a TON of new superheros just made it feel like fanfiction to me.

4:16 fun fact: Hamburgers are named hamburgers because they were created in Hamburg Germany in 1885 🙂

3:52 "The Hotdog Hero" "...and Baron Burger" Well, it's not too far off. DC Comics does actually have a character named the Condiments King (though I think he might be a villain) hahaha! ^_^

i keep forgetting this show is still on. but everytime you make videos about it i remember how cool it always looks.

I loved the new york special😅😍

9:47 I can most definitely see u acting in a movie or voiceovering some character in a movie😭😭😂 but right do it zag😂😂

its so wierd in english dub they made her Voice deeper and in germany way higher xD

Ah yes. *The pigeon boy.*

Im much exited for Pixie Girl and Tales of Feryon. These 2 have like the best costumes.

He mentioned Luka and Kagami! I'm so glad because that's what I've been saying! Just give them their miraculous!!!!!!!

6:02 you forgot that hawkmoth knows who kagami and lucka is and what miraculous they might hold so it's not possible.

I’m sorry but the girl(I don’t remember her name) when she transforms to that bald eagle miraculous- Her outfit- I’m sorry but I absolutely hate it-

6:36 Discount Batman should have no authority to take their Miraculous!!!!!

6:13 She didn't need to, she thought Paris was safe with cat noir, not to mention cat noir can't give miraculouses

Noooooo the Adrienette interactions were so much more awkward and dumb than usual

i both hate and love this show. the foundation of this show is great, like the love square? the lore? the drama? all of it is actually really interesting. but the thing is, it's executed horribly. there's no development, the characters are lowkey creepy and set bad examples for the kids watching the show, and consistency is sacrificed for the sake of shock factor/angst (*cough* chameleon and miracle queen *cough*). although the concept had so much potential, the producers and writers failed to capitalise on the strong points of the story and are instead dragging the plot out and making it unnecessarily convoluted. it's frankly disappointing to watch the show at this point because all i can think about is what it could've been. and so, i just read the fanfiction. no, seriously. the fanfiction is so much better because it takes everything that makes the show interesting, and it builds upon it with more likeable characters and plots that actually make sense. my advice is to go on the miraculous ladybug fandom on ao3 and just binge read anything that catches your eye. thank me later.

Don't forget about miraculous the shanghai special😉👍

I really loved the New York special! It absolutely made my day when the American miraculous-es were native American related. It makes so much sense to me that they would be! Are you going to do a video on the other special?

It’s also important to know that there’s been a voice change as of that special. Nino and Max’s then-voice actor Ben Diskin officially steps down from these two roles in favour of Zeno Robinson (now famous as Goh from Pokémon Journeys & Hawks from MHA). It’s very likely that change was impacted by the BLM movement in the US at the time.

This special is what really got me into Miraculous Ladybug even after 3 years of watching the show. I'm excited to see your review of the Shanghai Special!

Pacing will always be an issue with this series but I enjoy what I've seen so far. This special is an example of what this series can do right.

When the eagle's power was used for evil like how the butterfly is meant to make heroes not villains so the eagle in a good way is basically like if you had anxiety and it disappeared that's the eagle's power.

I liked how the New York special gave a little bit of depth to Sabrina & some agency beyond being Chloe’s servant

Cyrus The Great wants to know your location.

I'm excited everytime I get a notification for your videos~

He did sneak them in!!! i spotted Zac storms ship in the show.

YES OMG I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE

8:07 I'm very annoyed how they treated her. She can't see the kwamii's so she'll never be a real person

That ending 🤣 so cute Thank you for your hard work!!

I don’t normally watch these kinda shows but my kids love ladybug so I too, of course, love ladybug. Also LOVE this channel and the host, very funny without trying too hard and helps elevate my ladybug experience. The kids don’t get a lot of what *I’m* interested in with the series but THIS channel covers all of that WITH the hehe humor mixed in. Thank you!!

Me anytime Ladybug mentioned Paris was in danger: YOU. HAVE. THE. HORSE. MIRACULOUS!

I wait for all your videos especially the miraculous ones ever since u made the first video bout' it!❤️

9:03 Damn right it does!
