I haven't watched the episode, didn't even know there were new episodes releasing these days, then a celebratory clip appears on my feed and this was literally my reaction
Adrien's anger is a direct parallel and learned behavior from his father. Remember how Gabriel destroyed that front room over A BOOK and Adrien's response wasn't of shock, but of sadness? He's used to this behavior from his father. Adrien also has an expectation placed upon him to always be perfect and avoid showing his emotions (I mean Gabriel outright compared him to his emotional mother when Adrien confronted him in the past), so it's no wonder he experiences emotional outbursts due to holding everything in for too long. Even at the end of senti bubbler he smiles with ladybug and pretends he's okay, but he's not. Maybe he's not even fully aware of the resentment that's brewing, and/or he's afraid of ladybug's reaction if he expressed his concerns because of how he's used to his father reacting to conflict. The difference between Adrien and Gabriel though is that Adrien seemed to regret destroying that wall and said "I guess miraculous ladybug will fix it," and he stopped himself from destroying that christmas tree, whereas Gabriel has rarely if ever shown remorse for his anger. It shows that Adrien has room for growth, while Gabriel is almost irredeemable

jealousy I guess
“You’re the person I trust most in the world.”
The lie burned her tongue as it left her throat.
She could tell immediately she miscalculated. She recognized that expression. The pain and isolation in his eyes, it was the one she had sworn with everything she had that she would make sure he never wore again…
pretend this is a good caption
Carapace when he had to work together with Chat Noir again in the finale:
Happy new year <3 what better to start my year than Adrien having a miserable time. I’ve been (obsessively) reading Open My Eyes by @buggachat because I can never have enough angst in my life and I needed to capture a little bit of the suffering

Childhood memories.
Watch Miraculous pull out the lore plot twist of the century by not having Chat Blanc being Chat Noirs akumatized Form. Because THIS
Is not how the akumatizations go down. This is something else. He doesn't even have the telepathic butterfly mask
And definitely what never happened after someone got akumatized is that their akumatization transformation causes a shock wave out of their power
Okay guys hear me out
In the miraculous pv concept art book is a side with tikki and plagg with the two sides of the Kwami Null
Compare the black Null with Tikki and the white one with Plagg, you'll quickly see that they have simular bodys (White Null for example has a tail like Plagg) and they are on the same double page so that's a connection for ya
Notice also that in the miraculous box, the colors of the cat&ladybug yin-yang symbol parts have exactly the same colors as the two null parts (duh yin-yang)
With Plaggs black outlining the cats white yin part and Tikkis red the ladybugs black yang.
So what if the two Null parts from the Pv book WERE Tikki and Plagg but in their finale form to activate the Ultimate power?
And what if this concept was never actually scratched from the current show, just rewritten a bit in the execution?
I always thought it weird that people just assume that the Pv concepts are all gone now just because they aren't outright said from the beginning but alright go off
This would mean that just like Tikki and Plagg have a finale form so would Ladybug and Chat Noir. Plaggs Null version is white, so if Chat Noir had a finale power form it could very likely look like this
(Also when you scroll back up you can see that the power blast Chat Noir sets free has the same white/light blue color scheme as Chat Blanc)
For the sake of this post let's call this ultimate destruction power state Catatonic because a catatonic depression makes the person go numb and unresponsive to the world around them. They often don't talk, can't hear (yall know the post about the deafness of blue eyed white cats right?) and seem to be in a kind of daze for quite a while. Which is how Chat Blanc was first presented to us through this picture above. So Catatonic it is.
(Ladybug finale form would then be black like null tikki but please don't ask me for a name)
But now the question is, WHY did Chat Noir fall into the Catatonic power state?
For that let's look again at their powers. Creation and destruction. We were told that the ladybug and the cat are the most powerful miraculous in existence but these two concepts need two very different execution styles to use them properly to their limits.
The Ladybug creates a lucky charm and can heal/ fix whatever has gotten hurt or broken. For a power like this the holder should be calm, level headed and concentrated. That's when Creation is the most effective. So for the Ladybug to reach her ultimate Creation power state she must reach complete inner peace and level headness.
Destruction on the other hand is something COMPLETELY different. The Cat calls a Cataclysm with which they are able to destroy, break and disfunction anyone and anything. But the most EFFECTIVE is destruction when the person causing it doesn't hesitate, doesn't think, just does and let's the destruction consume everything in its path without holding back. Therefore the power of destruction is the most powerful and effective when the holder is having a mental breakdown. Because then every person no matter how good hearted let's go of the pressure society puts on us to never break or hurt anything or anybody, never let our emotions get the best of us, always be tidy, organized and follow the rules of a working world. In short, all the values that hold back destruction and chaos, everything the cat stands for.
So for Chat Noir to go Catatonic he would need to have a breakdown and, yall, I hope with all the possible reveals and truths coming out temporarily I don't have to explain why THAT is anything but far fetched right now
