      Yes, I absolutely agree. My main reason for it though is because of how she is with Chat noir. We have to remember, chat noir is Adrien at his most confident, and happiest. He gets to freely say and do all what he feels he cant at home. And sure, they work great as partners but a lot of the time she treats him as an annoying pest. So the question is, if she doesn’t like him at him when he’s himself why would she like him at all? And you could say “oh it’s because she likes Adrien too much to acknowledge anyone else.”
      But they’re the still same people.

      Marinette's whole personality is supposed to come off as an ordinary 14 year old with a few quirks on daily teenage life struggles but instead she mostly appears to be just someone who is weirdly overly infatuated with a boy and has a personality of a brick.

If it’s supposed to be a flaw or supposed to be toxic by design, that’s fine. It’s part of complex story telling. Characters don’t have to be perfect. But for the love of god, put a crumb of effort in and make it clear that this behaviour isn’t a good thing instead of constantly framing it in a positive “such a quirky girl” light.

    - Everyone loves her even though she has so many flaws (except for Lila and Chloe, who are so irredeemable that they can’t present effective foils to her)
    - Class President, Album Designer for the Famous Jagged Stone, Fashion Designer liked by Audrey Bourgeois, Guardian of the Miraculous, and Ladybug (the favorite hero of Paris for whatever reason)
    - Keeps Chat Noir in the dark on everything and consistently puts him down, even if it is done jokingly. And yet he still worships the ground she walks on
    - Everyone trusts her unconditionally despite all of her selfish mistakes
    - Stalks Adrien creepily despite almost never having quality or long conversations with him. And everyone encourages it and never yells at her for it, not even Adrien’s best friend or Tikki

His dad taught him and I think it makes sense although it shouldn't be presented as ok. We would have needed extra effort on ladybugs part to keep their relationship healthy.

      Something that also really bugs me is (like you said) that ladybug is the number one hero. I mean they are supposed to be equals. It's already getting unfair in how lady bug is the one who can deevilize akumas and repair all the damages and cat noir can just break something. It's a dope ass power but not relevant and nearly as exceptional as ladybugs. It's doesn't even make sense that ladybug can defeat a villain on her own and cat noir can't. Ladybugs only obstacle is that she might not be strong enough in which case literally any other hero could replace cat noir. For cat noir on the other hand its literally impossible. If they wanted this to be his role the cat noir miraculous should be alongside the other five and not next to ladybugs. Its also ridiculous how easily fixable this could have been. Just give cat noir the power to deeivilze the akumas and ladybug to restore everything to normal. They went through the effort of changing Felix to Adrien last second then surely they could fixed ladybugs and cat noirs powers .

    The majority of the fandom calls Adrien blind for ignoring Marinette's "signs" which are not love signs that are creepy stalker signs. And are so sympathetic to Marinette like whenever Marinette is sad because of Adrien calling her
    "Just a friend." which is stupid because she calls him "just a friend" but is sad when
    Adrien calls her "just a friend" But still the fandom is like "Poor Marinette." But what about Adrien?
    But in reality Adrien has went through so much more (than Marinette
    He lost his mother.
    He most likely has trauma from loosing his mother. who have seemed to have planed his whole future when he was very young with modeling. We don't even know if he likes modeling since we don't see his POV much.
    Had so little social interaction because he was homeschooled until he was 14.
    He's a victim from his father's abuse.
    He struggles.
    He isn't perfect.
    He faces big consequences for his actions.
    Faster Fu(ck) has mostly ignored him and seems to have not taught him anything.
    In The New York Special aka The Most Sh* Special Ever Ladybitch has broken his heart and have treated him like sh*t.
    Ladybitch mostly treats him like sh*t and almost never treats him like an actual partner.
    Has been stalked multiple times by his so friend He's not only a victim from his father's abuse but also a victim from Marinette's his so called friend's abuse. Marinette doesn't love him, the
    "love" that she feels for him is obsession, she's just a creepy, obsessed Adrien fan.
    They're not even friends. Marinette is a creepy stalker and Adrien is the victim, that doesn't realize that he's the victim but don't blame the victim aka Adrien.
    And so much more.

I found out why Marinette is like that. She has obsessive love disorder. It’s a disorder about someone obsessing and treating their love interest as if they’re a possession that needs to be protected. I’m quite sure that the writer didn’t intend for her to have this disorder.

      No, she's competent enough to last four seasons as an identity-undisclosed superpowered crimefighter without help from most should-be competent authorities. If her civilian life wasn't focused on high school friends and her crush on a famous model, instead being about helping her parents do business, focusing on her growth as a designer and hanging out with friends for activities that have nothing related to her immediate world, I think she would be much better as a character.
      And the Miraculous lore should have more focus, her getting taught how to do things kwami-related and the history of Miraculouses in the world. If this show was progressive, Hawk Moth wouldn't last a season and she'd quickly abandon her crush on Adrien. Luka was a better option.
      I meant that last point objectively, the stupid romance arcs drove me out of watching the show. Did not mean to offend MarinetteXAdrien shippers, or other shippers whose support is on a pairing involving those two.

    I remember how much I hated whenever someone criticized Marinette and talked about her being a creepy stalker. I didn't deny the fact that she was obsessed with Adrien (I thought it was creepy myself) but I just hated how people were always calling her out for it. Only recently, I finally realized what a shitty character she actually is. She's obsessed with Adrien, bullies any other girl if they get close to him and literally has her entire future planned with him. If she loves him that freaking much, why can't she confess her love like Chat noir did for Ladybug? At this point, she's just obsessed with Adrien. This is NOT true love. I feel so damn bad for Adrien, he seriously deserves so much better than Marinette who's selfish, insulting and creepy. And she's always treating Chat noir like garbage, as if he doesn't matter (especially in glaciator 2). This video was great.

The issue is that her flaws aren't treated as flaws, and the audience is expected to just roll with her stalker tendencies as if they're totally normal.

    The backstory. Mari was bullied even worse by Chloe (roaches in her locker,paint on her seat,causing her to get detentions etc) and one day,Kim was an idiot and listend to Chloe's "prank" to Marinette,basically faking his love towards her,since she was in love with him. They go at the pool,Kim opens a small box,and spiders get out of it while they jump on Mari,she falls in the pool,and while falling,she sees Chloe and Sabrina grinning while recording her. Chloe says she's going to post the video and blahbalh but Soqueline intervenes and breaks Chloe's phone.
    This got the fans wild,suddenly feeling sorry for Mari and there even was a video named "Chloe Bourgeois is BEYOND redemption" which is WRONG; BEING INFURIATED BY A CHARACTER GIVES YOU NO RIGT TO CALL THEM "IREEDAMABLE"

    If you look really close into Lila and some scenes of her life at home, you can kinda see why she may lie and hate Marinette. Compared to Marinette, she doesn't exactly get the attention from her parents since they're pretty busy and she couldn't exactly be herself to anyone. While with Marinette, she has two loving parents who give her support and attention as needed and she can be herself and everyone likes her for herself. Lila probably just feels jealous of Marinette which may explain why she may hate her. Also, her lying can just be a coping mechanism.

    The problem lies in the fact that the writers of the animated series do not consider Marinette's mistakes and problematic behaviors as intentional transgressions. This is why she faces no consequences, as they believe her actions do not cause any real harm and are simply perceived as amusing and cute. Even though objectively she acts similarly to a yandere personality, excluding murder. It is clearly the fault of the writers who do not want to take responsibility for disastrous narrative choices.
    Making Marinette a complex character could have been achieved by either :
    1) subjecting her to the consequences of her actions and openly acknowledging that her behavior is morally reprehensible, to serve as a lesson for children and to show that Marinette is a human character capable of both good and bad things but takes responsibility, or 2) exploring the path of vice and openly embracing Marinette's dark sides, allowing her to undergo a negative character arc where she becomes more of an anti-hero, instead of remaining in this middle ground where the character is supposed to be "kind" from a narrative standpoint, even though, factually, that is not the case, and the narrative favors her.

    • @yasmine2370
      @yasmine2370 9 місяців тому +7

      Personally, in addition to the points you mentioned, what irritates me the most about Marinette is the unequal dynamic with Chat Noir that frustrates me. The writers, aiming to highlight Marinette in a (bad executed) "feminist" manner, unjustly render Chat Noir inferior. I emphasize that they are supposed to possess the two most powerful Miraculous and therefore be equal as partners. However, Marinette is consistently given more prominence, whether through her imposed leadership posture and Chat Noir relegated to the role of an assistant, her illogical and excessive power-ups, while Chat Noir remains stagnant.
      With unjust advantages such as her role as a guardian, her arbitrary choice to forbid the revelation of their secret identities, even though she does it herself by telling Alya. Moreover, to defeat the akumas and villains, Chat Noir's role seems not as indispensable as one might think, even though he is supposed to be Ladybug's equal. She can replace him with any sidekick and it works. In summary, if I continue, I will never stop. The writers deliberately keep Chat Noir in the shadows to make Ladybug shine and refuse to maintain a balance between the two, even though they are supposed to represent creation and destruction.
      Marinette comes across as overly perfect, almost resembling a "Mary Sue" in my view. She enjoys a flawless family life, with loving baker parents who give her space, along with loyal friends. Leading a double life as a superhero, she is cute and seemingly unaffected by any self-esteem issues, which contrasts with the reality of adolescence where many struggle with body image. Her life appears ideal, free from problems or traumas, except for her unrequited love for Adrien. Even though he hasn't rejected her, he sees her merely as a friend because she has never confessed her feelings to him.

    I think that the worst problem of marinette is that she can not separate herself from ladybug. She can not understand that marinette is not ladybug and ladybug is not marinette. She use her "alter ego" at her own convenience. She can not keep ladybug and marinette as two different beings. Because she really thinks that she is ladybug, but not, she needs to turn into ladybug for the safe of paris, it is not something she can play with, but she just don't understand it. She alone puts her identity at risk for her impulsive and selfish actions

    I'm glad they at least tried to give us an explanation in season 5 as to WHY she was so obsessed with Adrien, but regardless, someone handing their umbrella to you is not enough to become head over heels obsessed with them. They attempted to flesh it out with the Kim prank story, yet that doesn't really mean that she's allowed to stalk him to know more about him. They were ALREADY friends. I get that she was nervous around him since she didn't want to look bad in front of him, but Alya literally GAVE her multiple chances and opportunities to get to know him better and she STILL turns to stalking him and sniffing his bed and pillows to "get to know him better". Plus if he was like Chloe then I'd understand why she would be nervous, but he's LITERALLY THE MOST EASILY APPROACHABLE CHARACTER IN THE CANON. It just doesn't make any rational sense.

And she acts like get bullying from Chloe and then she makes so mean things to Chloe and others , Marinette is popular and loved in school but always acts she is the loser , not loved or something. She even doesn't have family issues , she has a perfect family and friends but never satisfy with them and always wants Adrien's attantion too , he doesn't belong to you , he doesn't have to love you Marinette.

      Ever since that day, I think Marinette fell in love with the chivalrous act Adrian did. She saw him as not some stuck up bratty wealthy child but her Parisian knight in shining armour. Something snapped in her head after that so she mistook his respectfully kind deed as a 'mating' call. Like "hey...I'm available" and now every time she's around him all she sees are pretty sparkles + Adrian can do no wrong. More than anything I wanted her with Luka due to their relationship being more based off core values (besides her not being able to trust him and rather chooses to trust Alya 100 percent which still kinda ticks me off). Like many commenters have said, Marinette's only obsessed with Adrian for his looks. She doesn't really know him like she thinks she does. She only knows the surface things/info about Adrian. It's also not healthy that her friends enable her crazed Stan stalker possessive behavior around Adrian. Lukanette was way healthier despite the writers having her completely reject the good guy in front of her for the guy (Adrian) in her class that she doesn't really know at all. When it gets to the point where you break into your crush's house to leave love confession note and start fangirling over everything he does then we have a problem. I really hope they have Luka genuinely move on from Marinette due to it being a lost cause. He means well with trying to hook Adrianette up but hasn't seen Mari's crazy stalker Stan behavior. My hope is that the writers have Luka and Alex (LukAlex) develope something sweet. Or have the more fan tolerated and pushed Luka+Kagami which really never had any scenes together.

Second off, Chat Noirs whole personality is being confident and cocky, so obviously he's going to act like he knows everything, that's his literal persona, but learning to use a miraculous, specifically, the ladybug one is hard, and there is evidence when Marinette struggles, so obviously Chat noir is going to struggle, especially because he never had time to get explained how to use it. Since ladybug LOVES to point out they are partners, good partners would have shown them or guided them on what to do. And this wasn't a mistake she made either, because she taunted Mr.Bug throughout the episode about it, so clearly it's just a personality flaw. I have no issue with flawed protagonists but they have to be done correctly, and Marinnite is done a protagonist who is done correctly, and this is coming from a writer, so I know my stuff. She's pretty rude and ignorant, and she's quite bratty and entitled, and I'm not hating on the show nor the character, nor the voice actors, but simply the writers for how poorly written she is. And I'm not hating on the show, the overall plot is ok but the way that the fandom is, and the way the characters are written is what I'm criticizing, not hating. So reply back again when you have a proper response against pure evidence from the show itself.

      Marinette is a better protagonist because she's more human like and flawed because people have flaws and I don't get how her behavior is bad, of course teenage girls stalk their crushes, at least it was normal when i was in school (i'm 25 now haha)

      I feel so bad for her parents. they were so happy about her wanting to learn more about her Chinese lineage but she didn't even care, she didn't even bother learning Chinese she was just "OH MY GOD ADRIENS IN A NOTHER COUNTRY I NEED TO GO AND SEE HIM EVEN THOUGH I SEE HIM EVERY DAY" it was really cringe and really creepy

      Marinette is the bad example how to normalize bad behavior to the kids such as stealing, abuser verbal/non verbal, stalking, ruining people privacy and many others. No wonder in five years in the future, we gonna find some people like Marinette because they’re learned from asturd’s creations

      Bro, it's like Twilight but the opposite-
      Teaching young girls that, instead of normalizing bad relationships and how somebody stalking you is romantic, it's saying that stalking others is romantic and the best way to get your crush.

    Chloe is better person than Marinette. At least Chloe is honest and she doesn't hide who she is. Marinette on the other hand is manipulative and evil and she is enough evil to think that she is a good person.
