#yeah if you hadnt pointed it out
Yo, I just realized, ZAG and Astruc made Marinette the model minority.
She’s the everyday Ladybug.
She’s the class representative.
She’s always expected to do well and be good and meek and the example.
They made her the model minority in her own fucking show.
What the shit.
And I know people have talked about the racism in this show before, but it really just clicked how insidious it is.
Like, she so well assimilated she doesn’t even know Chinese.
Now I’m wondering if she was whitewashed so it would take longer to realize.
