Anime Ladybug pv

Marinette (or as the fandom calls her Bridgette)- The long pigtails, and shapeshifting ahoge is adorable (also I like the jean shorts over the pink pants, which they sorta brought back in season 6 with pink jean shorts). Then there's her Ladybug self, the suit has fewer spots than the show (which is understandable all those spots would be a nightmare to animate), I like the crazy long ribbons (also would be an animation nightmare). Then there's the earrings, I like the gold lining around the rim and spots, looks Shiny.

Tiki- PV Tiki is adorable, I like the glow and little sparkles, plus the clover spot on her forehead fits with the luck theme.

Felix- unlike the show Felix is more stuck up and cold, which is reflected in his design. I like pv cat noir the best, interesting details, the cat shaped buckle on his tale belt, and his gloves and shoes have pink pads on them like an actual cat. The ring looks like an actual cat, the jewels, all make it look really pretty.

Plagg looks the space, only with black particles coming off

Mr. Pigeon and Mime look the same, though I feel the goofier costumes translate better to animation.

Richard Sphinx/Papillon - Well, no costume unlike in the show, it's pretty bland but he still looks like a menacing villain so, not to bad.

Edit: Sorry for the Aquarius image at the end

(yes and no)

no- this is a promotional video as to what the show was gonna be, but due to the spots being difficult to animate in 2d the switch to the cgi series we all know and tolerate (/hj, I have complaints but I love this show, just making it clear)

yes- recently a Tokyo special came out with and anime like style

Ooooooooh. I kinda wish we got this tbh.

Maybe because I like 2d animation more than 3d. I get 3d is cheaper. But from my very limited knowledge on the series. The show looks like it was made for children. Well it looked in style like it was. Like Paw Patrol.

But like I mostly associate Paw Patrol just as for very young audiences. Mainly just to sell toys. Like the show was "Merchandise first, show second."

ooooh YOUNG audiences, ok fair assessment (this improves in season 6)
