Miraculous Ladybug Season 4 Episode 23 English Dub
Okay, let's talk Miraculous Ladybug Season 4 Episode 23, "Wishmaker" in English Dub. It's a doozy, right? Everyone seems to have strong feelings about it.
Luka Couffaine: The Purest Soul in Paris?
First off, Luka. Seriously, that guy is too good for this world. He's like a golden retriever in human form. Always supportive, always understanding, always strumming his guitar with profound wisdom.
Is it just me, or does his character border on… a little too perfect? It's almost unbelievable. I mean, nobody is *that* zen, are they? Okay, maybe my yoga instructor, but still!
The "Wishmaker" Plot: Let's Dive In
The plot centers around Luka getting akumatized into, well, Wishmaker. Because a random kid made a wish that he'd be a supervillain. The logic? A little wonky. Classic Miraculous Ladybug, though!
He can grant wishes, but with a twist! It’s all about childhood dreams, which is kind of adorable. Except when those dreams involve global domination, then less adorable.
And don't even get me started on how easily everyone figures out Luka's weakness: genuine emotion! I love him, but it makes him seem a bit… predictable.
Unpopular Opinion Time: Kagami Tsurugi Deserved Better!
Here's where things get spicy. Ready for my unpopular opinion? Kagami deserved so much better in this episode!
Okay, hear me out. The whole "I'm choosing myself" thing? Totally valid! Girl power! Self-discovery! But the way it played out felt rushed.
It's like they remembered, "Oh yeah, Kagami exists! We should give her something to do." Then bam! Breakup scene. She seems like someone who deserves a meaningful breakup, and not just to advance the main couple's plot!
The Adrinette Angst: Sigh
Speaking of the main couple… Adrinette angst galore! Adrien being oblivious is a running gag, but it's starting to wear thin. Dude, she's literally tripping over herself to show you she likes you!
Marinette’s constant internal screaming is relatable, though. We've all been there, right? Crushing hard and acting like a total goofball in front of our crush. But seriously, how long can this go on?
At this point, I'm starting to wonder if Gabriel Agreste is secretly psychic and knows that if Adrien and Marinette get together, his plans will be ruined. That's the only explanation for this level of obliviousness.
Overall Thoughts: Still Hooked!
Despite my gripes, I still enjoyed "Wishmaker." The animation was on point, the fight scenes were fun, and hey, any Miraculous Ladybug is better than no Miraculous Ladybug.
But let's be real, the plot holes are sometimes big enough to drive a bus through. And the character development, while present, can feel a little… uneven.
I'm still eagerly waiting for what comes next, though! Especially after that cliffhanger ending. Until then, I'll be rewatching Luka's scenes and wondering how he stays so calm under pressure.
