Can we already consider the franchise dead?

Nothing was announced at the Annecy Festival, nor was Kite Man mentioned.

Well, if this is the end, I liked the season 5 finale as a definitive ending, although Kite Man could have lasted a little longer.

Is Whip supposed to be an original character from the series or an adaptation of this Whip?

It doesn't look much like that whip, since the one in the comic uses a normal whip and has nothing to do with Superman. It should be called "Conduit" because it's just like that character, but female, but it isn't.

Chloe was the only one who left a nice message for Adrien in the Felix episode.

Everything else was awful, especially Marinette's part, where she forgot it was about Adrien's mother's death and talked about herself and confessed her feelings to him.

Why did Mylène lie about what happened to her mother in Derision?

In the episode "Derision," Rose says that Chloe isn't to blame for being the way she is because her mother abandoned her, to which Mylène replies that her mother also abandoned her and that she isn't a bully.

But in season six, it's revealed that Mylène's mother didn't abandon her willingly like Audrey did with Chloe, but rather died.

This puts Mylène in a very bad light, as it seems she's comparing herself to a girl whose mother abandoned her willingly, while her mother didn't choose to die. To top it all off, she seems to blame her mother for her death.

Seriously, "Derision" didn't do any of the characters any favors.

Is Penalty the most powerful Akuma?

It took all the Miraculous holders to face her, and even then they couldn't. She only lost because she chose to.

In general, Chloe's Akumas are the most powerful. Miracle Queen revealed the identities of six Miraculous holders, and Major Queen would have won if not for a last-minute plot twist.

Why is Chrysalis stronger than Hawk Moth?

Chrysalis makes akumatizations more immersive by being able to create silhouettes of herself, in addition to the anti-akumas. Why?

Why doesn't Vesperia use its spinning top like a yo-yo, like Queen Bee did?

I'm not sure it's for the reasons shown in the image, but isn't it strange that Queen Bee's spinning top had similar functionalities to Ladybug's yo-yo, but Vesperia's didn't?

Am I the only one who thinks Shadybug should have kept this look?

The first one was beautiful with that black hair and red eyes and had its own unique essence. The new one is just the same old Marinette with the red streak. They could have at least kept her old pigtails to differentiate her, but not even that.

Claw Noir also looks worse with the new look, since the first one with that green hair was great. But at least he still looks different from Cat Noir Prime. It's like Thomas believes all Ladybugs should be based on Ladybug Prime to become better versions, but this doesn't apply to Cat Noir, who isn't so perfect, it seems.

Did you know that The Batman's (2004) depiction of Cluemaster was actually intended to be the Riddler?

In some discussions about The Batman (2004) TV series, I learned some concept arts for various characters slated to appear, such as a monstrous version of the Joker as well as concept art for Scarecrow (whom the creative team fought to include, but was denied due to the "Bat-Embargo" at the time).

One of these concept arts was an early version of the Riddler, whom the creative team reimagined as a morbidly obese villain whose descent to crime was after he lost at a game show when he was a child.

If you're probably wondering, "Wait, isn't that how the show depicted the Cluemaster?" You're right! Apparently, DC disapproved this idea, forcing the creative team to start over from scratch. But despite this, the idea was eventually repurposed in the show's depiction of Artie Brown AKA the Cluemaster.

Why does Toymaker exist?

Why create an original villain just like Toyman instead of using Toyman?
