    You're definitly right that this episode is forgetable, but at the very least, the writing team has learned from the Qilin episode. Instead of avoiding the real issue of the episode and calling it "Injustice", they made it super obvious that the topic is plastic polution. At the very least, they did that right

    The Alliance rings being plastic can be half right. Because when it comes to electronics. They can't just be one hundred procent metal. That would lead the electricity and fry the people who touch it. While having some plastic would make it better as plastic don't lead electricity.
    But having them being one hundred procent plastic. Is kinda stupid.

    Actually the venom plastic combination makes sense. You’re always talking about how the supervillains who turn people into things are pointless because they turn the miraculous into plastic (or gold or ice cream) too. So if you have venom you can turn civilians into plastic to lure the heros out and use venom to get the miraculous

      Yeah, but, here's the thing in the 90s jetsons movie it was about miscommunication with a creatures that were living there was a compromise between them and they work together to have the things that they both want which is true for real life if you want to have more trees then plant more trees and that way you can get more paper because that's the way that the paper people tree work . the same thing here if you need anything from plastic then recycle bin the plastic suff and not throw it in the river and by recycle bin the plastic suff you will have more plastic things that are important to you because the recycle plastic will help the environment and stop plastic garbage and waste . the only one that did a environment message right way is the jetsons movie in the 90s and the PBS kids show Elinor wonders why. They understand what people should do but fernguily the last rainforest movie was telling you that you should not hurt the tree when they animation was on paper which is made by trees .so the message of the movie is already confusing the the kids when they should have said if you want more paper to be a artist then plant more trees and that way you can get more paper and you can get more trees to plant and sit down beside and enjoy both of them . but nope the jetsons movie and Elinor wonders why the PBS kids show are the only ones who did it the right way that did not confusing kids and this episode to me is bad very much bad that it tell me that they have seen fernguily and copy that and confusing the kids the same way that fernguily confusing the kids the action was great but, that's still no excuse for the miscommunication and not giving the real message to kids instead of a confusing one that every environment movie of the 90s did seem to follow instead of listening to the jetsons movie and Elinor wonders why and sonic the hedgehog 90s tv show which is the right way of recycle plastic and paper and plant more trees to get more paper and recycle plastic will help the environment and stop plastic garbage and waste and you can get more plastic things. And the fact is that they are wearing plastic rings is even more confusing the kids and he is right how dare they do a rip off of the owner of KFC chicken genies brain . it's not the worst but bad to see them do a environment message wrong instead of doing the message from the jetsons movie and Elinor wonders why and sonic the hedgehog which did a environment message right way ,it is just not right to confusing the kids that wonders what to do to have more trees and paper and more plastic things and still help the environment is not right with confusing the kids like this. In my opinion weather you agree or disagree with me on this episode I give this episode a zero out of 10 cat noir. Every body in the episode is stupid and even the villan is stupid and the wrong and confusing the kids and it to me feel like nobody learn anything because they are all dumb. and even if their idea work, would that have been the same thing as thrown trash in to the river instead of helping they are created equal problems with clean up the mess in the waters + sinking ship the same way that you drill a hole in the ship and the trash out in the water ? The answer to this question is yes, it would cause a even bigger problem than the thing was intended for . they should have just put up a sign that says don't throw plastic things in the water . use the recycle bin . doesn't matter who wrote the episode it is bad and not only is gab a weak villan and father but has a plastic statue of him too that show his weakness as a father ? Is there any body in this version of Paris smart at all? What kind of hypertension ring causes everybody else to be this dumb and stupid? Bottom line is the episode was bad enough that batman vs Superman was so bad even if they had great fight scenes but the movie made no sense and waste of time to see .

    I watched this yesterday and I couldn't make it even a minute in before I had to pause and walk away for a few seconds. The animations with Adrian on the motorcycle cracked me up. Also everything about this episode felt like a fever dream. The music made it feel like a sort of trailer rather than a movie, there was little to none character developments or any character genuine conversations. There were so many weird lines that made it feel like an episode more made for kids, which is ok... but lets just say i dont think i'll rewatch it.

    That episode was so painful to sit through. I feel that for episodes of any tv show that are supposed to communicate an impotent message of it’s audience (like pollution in this case), the writers need to go above and beyond to make the episode absolutely amazing. Or else it just feels cheap. This is episodes biggest failing is it tells us the problem before showing it. It would’ve been way more effective if Marinette and Adrien came to the boat-house to work on a new kitty section song only to be interrupted when engines get tangled in something like plastic bags (I don’t know how ships work too well, I’m sorry) and then we can have a scene where Milene (u know the character who’s most vocal about this) expands on how plastic (especially bags) r harmful to the environment and wildlife. Also total missed opportunity with Bob Roth. We already hate the dude and know he likes money, just give him a side hustle where he’s helping make fans with Gabe (except, it’s not the fans that r the problem, just have it so it’s in cheap plastic packaging). Or at least that’s just my opinion. There where a few things I enjoyed about this episode; like Chat Noir was less useless

      I'll explain to you why this magic of color change happens since your narrow mind can't reach it.
      the characters have a 3D model which is then animated and colored by various 3D animation studios.
      Since the studies are different, the colors they use may differ, the same thing concerns the transformed characters who have different models compared to the civilian ones. Furthermore this magic can be found on Marinette's hair which in some episodes is very dark while in others it is light.

    I missed the full transformations as they weren't shown almost at all during season 5. Always made me smile seeing them in the early seasons and especially here with the better music track.
    I think it was good to have a filler episode as they clearly can write better short stories this team then one big story with a controversial ending.

    Guys, did y'all realize they used the season one Hawk Moth soundtrack during Monarch's scenes? It's my favorite version of the theme and I LOVED hearing it again!
    This was such a fun episode, it feels like a season one episode in season 5. No complicated and weird Adrienette, no senti-shenanigans, just some great Miraculous goodness. It was very on the nose about pollution, and I think they nailed that part. Seeing the transformations of the series' main three Miraculous holders was a blast, too. I was surprised how much characters appeared despite this being a bonus episode, but it was great to not only see the entire class, but also Gabriel, Andre the mayor, Fei, Jess, Aeon and even Nadia and Manon in their full glory!
    The only downside of the episode, for me, is the animation. It's not too noticeable but it's the only thing I can think of. There are some weird animation goofs (and also some sound goofs, but idk if everyone heard them) that definitely have to do with this being a special episode.
    I really loved the King of Plastic. I think that Bertrand was voiced by Keith (Gabriel Agreste) in the English Dub? If so, he did an excellent job. He has personality and his motives are believable. His civilian design is great, really great. His akumatized form not so much, but I don't think it's horrible- it's like on the Bakerix and Weredad level, instead of the great ones like LadyWifi, Evillustrator, etc. It seems the Miraculous crew really excel at simpler episodes. While I personally really love the more plot related things and more deep tones, it's clear that they know what they're doing when it comes to the more 'episodic' stuff.
    All in all, I am NOT disappointed. I LOVED THIS, and after that confusing finale, and just the entire arc as a whole, this was just what I needed.

It doesn't make sense for everyone to throw away so many if the point is to collect them all, and it doesn't matter to the King if they get decomposed after being thrown away as long as people keep replacing them. If the concern was the fact that he'd lose out on the business of Gabe and madame Tsurugi, then a) who cares, it's not like you've built your empire on this one deal and b) he doesn't __have__ to use plastic to make the fans. Diversification my man. Do it of your own free will before governments around the world will force your hand.

    My problem with this episode is the kids are blaming the wrong people. It’s not the plastic corporations fault for the pollution, it’s the citizens who’re mindlessly throwing them on the ground. Like Plastic king stated, plastic is everlasting and reusable. So unless they get torn or broken, people have no reason to throw them away.
    What makes it worse is that they are throwing the fans away but they keep buying more. So not only are people wasting material, they’re also wasting money. The corporations may produce the plastic, but its our job to make sure they’re properly disposed of, via recycling.

And as a southern American, the whole texas accent bad guy thing is just lazy. I'm sure in the original French, it's different so it was probably a decision made stateside due to how much he LOOKS like the KFC founder but its lame. Also, that is no Kentucky accent. It's Texan. I just wish the people behind this show would start respecting the characters and world they created and do them some actual narrative justice. I think I'm still sore about the finale. But here I am, still very much wondering what the hell is going to happen in Season 6 and how they are going to explain away the whole universe being rewritten.

    Honestly Disney continues to drop the ball. The whole point of miraculous is to stop anyone from making a wish. Because as tiki has put it, you are writing in a red pen or marker, doesn’t matter. Say you want to change the color of the pen, but having that different color won’t look good with the existing color. So you just erase it and rewrite it all. When Gabriel made his wish and everything was fine, Disney made marionette and adrien look like fools for keeping Gabriel from making his wish cuz he was in the right when obviously it’s supposed to be wrong. I…. Hate this ending. The whole point is that by removing and then adding is supposed to basically end the world they live in and things are supposed to be very different. And besides the amount of broken relationships in this show which makes me mad, they been treating everyone badly. As many have mentioned. Honestly, if they continue the series, I ain’t watching. My miraculous faded and all I have left is my head cannon but if people like this ending. I can only say you are weird but I respect your choices. Me as a die hard fan of this show….

      People haven't learned from history, the whole reason plastic came into favour for cheap furniture and bags wasn't because it was a mystical miracle material. Paper products were cheaper to make, it's just the forests were going to shit. So plastic got popular because it was saving the trees and therefore the planet. (In 1965, Sten Gustaf Thulin patented the plastic bag with the intention of saving trees. He had witnessed the devastation of forests, so he started using plastic bags and kept one folded in his back pocket for reuse*. Became even bigger in the 90S to use plastic though*).
      Kids were literally taught to use plastic in school. Now we've done a 180 and are back to "reduce and get rid of plastic to save the planet".
      At this point, alternatives to plastic AND paper need to become more commonplace and large corps need to spearhead. Alternatives should ideally convert what we consider waste or waste-like into useful materials. I can't control the majority of food being in cardboard or plastic wrapped, I can't choose to not eat. And I do need certain products in my life, like food containers and whatnot, but I'm sensitive to price and durability because the economy is shit.
      Some groups have tested and made styrofoam alternatives out of mushrooms for instance, but unless there's massive investment and large corps actively switch over, it doesn't mean shit.
