Fans want S6 finale. Fans want episodes released on a reasonable schedule. But ZAG knows they can't deliver that for whatever reason.

So instead, they keep pushing out other things to hold people's attention. Things like Miraculous Secrets (which is completely unnecessary as commentary should come from fans, not the officials), S7 posters, and random, useless updates like "writing for S7 is complete" as if that's meaningful to us fans.

So, anything they post that isn't the next episode is just a distraction, and they know it.

So keep that in mind before getting caught up in the next distraction.

I don’t know why some people think akumas change names depending on whether they're used for good or evil. The name has nothing to do with intent, it depends only on what the current Butterfly Miraculous holder chooses to call them.

Betterfly didn't even know the term "akuma". If the Butterfly Miraculous had been used for evil in their world too, they probably would've just kept calling them "komiko". Similarly, Gabriel enhanced their power and called them "megakuma". Lila pushed them even further and renamed them "ultrakuma". She created a different type and called it "antikuma".

The same logic applies to everything else. (De)transformation phrases, and power (de)activation lines aren't fixed rules either. All the Butterfly and Peacock holders we've seen, use their powers without saying anything at all. Every Peacock Miraculous holder has used the same (de)transformation phrases, and called amoks by the same name, regardless of good or evil. In French, transformation phrases are just "transform me".

Phrases are only convenient triggers, not requirements. In Miracle Queen, it's implied that simply saying the kwami's name is enough to transform. Everything else, phrases, hero names and designs, etc. comes down to the holder.

QoTD is not Chloe's final appearance. We'll probably see more of her in S7, and not just online, but in person too. And before anyone gets their hopes up, no, this won't involve a redemption.

We already know Chloe has become a big influencer. In Daddycop, she was looking for an underling, which shows she's surrounding herself with new people she can control or bully. In Queen of the Dreadzone, we also learned that she can influence trends and is making being evil trendy through her posts.

I think that is setup, and we'll see this being explored in S7. It could be by showing her weaponising her fame against her enemies in Paris, or we'll see a day in her life in London. I could even see Ladybug and the Miraculers stepping in to take down her influence there, just like they did in Paris.

After everything that's happened with Chloe willingly choosing to side with Lila and Monarch, there's really only one way a redemption arc could work without creating major plot holes. She would have to lose everything; her wealth, her status, her popularity, even her mother's support. She'd need to hit rock bottom and struggle before rebuilding herself with the help of the very people she hurt in the past.

I think that's the only scenario where her redemption could feel earned. And even then, there's still a very high chance she could relapse or betray them again.

That said, considering how the show has handled her character since S4, I highly doubt we'll ever see something like this happen.

I've heard Astruc said Rooster Bold will get his transformation this season. Since he's not getting a spotlight in the last 3 episodes, it's pretty safe to assume The Dirtifiers will be Marc-focused.

I've also heard Chloe might return this season. If that's true, she'll most likely be akumatised in Queen of the Dreadzone.

Zoe's Fury arc also wasn't completed in Grendiaper, so I'm guessing she'll get another spotlight in Queen of the Dreadzone to wrap that up.

Noe was barely introduced, and it looks like he'll appear more often. Having all 3 half-siblings play major roles in one episode would make sense.

That said, since Noe is set up to be a major antagonist, I wouldn't be surprised if he also shows up in the final 2 episodes.

What do you think?
