>Marinette says she's a "normal girl with a normal life" when she's not using her Miraculous.
>Her parents run the most successful bakery in Paris and are clearly extremely well off, she lives in what looks like a really expensive house in a really expensive part of Paris, her grandparents are also clearly extremely well off, she goes to a fancy school that might as well be a private school, can casually go abroad whenever she wants, and she frequently hangs out with even richer people, politicians and celebrities.
>white man and Asian woman
B A S E D
And very true to life. Especially the guy being built like a brickhouse.
Yep, Marinette's dad is quite the chad.
Yeah. A mass shooter in the making
Since they had a girl she's more likely to be a porn star
You forgot:
>is the most fertile and breedable girl in Paris
You also forgot strutting in latex without people being shocked.
I would like to know the name of this episode. I know it's probably before Chloe becomes Queen Bee but I don't know if it's in the first season or the second one.
Seems to be Antibug S1E24

to be fair it's France.
>implying these two somehow made a blue eyed daughter
Her Asian mother actually was infertile as her eggs were defective so she had them all scoped out and replaced with a blue eyed white woman's eggs.
Marinette isn't a hapa, she's just half-Finnish.
>she's just half-Finnish.
So a hapa

The Simpsons. They're meant to be struggling, but their house and their lifestyle tells a different story.
the shows whatever it needs them to be for an episode.
There were frequent "money trouble" story elements in the early seasons. The writers just lost interest in the idea.
This, in early seasons if the Simpsons went to another country they'd at least try to justify it. Now they just travel abroad whenever they feel like it at a moment's notice.
Homer's dad bought the house.
Bob Belcher apparently makes some of the best burgers in the world, but the family still has just barely enough money to stay in business.
That’s because Bob is his own worst enemy. Bob sabotages himself all the time.

>excellent chef
>shit businessman

They just need a pair of Potara earrings to become the ultimate restauranteur.
Wouldn't the earrings exaserbate each of their shit qualities since they hate each other?
The real question is would they be Bimmy or Job?
Much of a character's "privilege" is just his or her's random interactions and him coming out the better, or just unchanged, for it. Instead of being constantly beaten down while living lives of total obscurity like the rest of us.
He was also a nuclear engineer.
>any series with some guy complaining about his "boring office job" where he has his own private space and basically just reads e-mails or does basic programming, never went to college
>to qualify for one of these nowadays you need a bachelors degree, 20 years of experience and 50 certifications or you know a guy who knows a guy who knows a guy who knows a guy
I fricking hate it.
>Family is wealthy enough to support three people on a single income while having enough spare money to hire a babysitter
>Lives in a huge nice ass home
>Parents are well off enough to be going out a ton on dates
I say this as a FOP fan, Timmy had a pretty decent life. Then again I think it suffers from the same issue as the Simpsons, where the economy has shit itself so badly that what used to be "normal" now seems luxurious.
Yeah, the only actually "bad" thing in Timmy's life is that he had a shitty babysitter sometimes.
is wealthy enough to support three people on a single income while having enough spare money to hire a babysitter
His parents treat him like crap and openly neglect him.
are well off enough to be going out a ton on dates
They'd rather be with themselves than actually spend time with Timmy (which is a rarity), and pawn him off to a girl who uses literally weapons of torture on him. You're also forgetting he's heavily unpopular, teacher clearly has him out for him, and his friends bail when he's in a pinch. If you're referring just solely to his financial situation, than yeah it's decent,
I'm not saying his life's perfect, I'm just saying he clearly won't be struggling financially. His parents are loaded
>Single income
No, they both work. The mom is a real estate agent, remember?
Making her be from a banlieu can potentially alienate the viewers and add complexity to the story. Even in Naruto, the character is an orphan, but his economic condition is poorly defined, with Ramen being the main thing that makes it clear that he is poor.
>green eyed dad.
>gray eyed mom.
>blue eyed daughter?!
I had never realized until now.
One of her grandparents on her father's side probably had blue eyes. Children don't always inherit the eye color of their mother or father.
Blue eyes are recessive. If they both have the recessive gene for it, their kids can randomly have blue eyes.
For a site obsessed with race and genetics Cinemaphile doesn't know a lot of basic shit sometimes.
>For a site obsessed with race and genetics
That's b, a little pol, sometimes a his argument, not co.
The same is true for "normal every day peter parker". The purpose of these things is to have someone you can relate to but also has cool stuff happening to them.
>uncle dead

No its not even close
Pete started a company, only for his body to be stolen, and the company become successful, then crash as hard as Theranos as soon as he gets his body back.
Peter actually didn't even start the company, Otto did when he stole his body. And let's not forget that Otto got Peter a doctorate, only for the ESU to deem his doctoral thesis plagiarized, thus ruining his career and reputation even more.
Everything is relative.
Her crush is the son of a world-famous fashion designer and a male model himself.
Her arch-rival is the doted-upon daughter of the mayor of Paris.
Compared to (at least some of) her classmates, she's practically middle-class.
Her Ecole does seem rather fancy, but at least some of the best schools in Paris select students based on school grades and teacher remarks.
Tuition fees are low in public Higher education institutions because the French government subsidizes higher education. The true cost of education is the same as it is elsewhere in the world—around €10,000 a year. The difference is that in France the government assumes a large share of that cost.
Chloe didn't get the message
Look at that gigantic unit of a Chad!
I think that one of the reasons why Evil Superman characters are so popular is that so many (american) readers want to do things with the powers, that are pretty evil. If you had Supe's powers how many banks would you rob? It's not like you're earning enough to get ahead of the bills by playing it Good, after all. (Of course, the rich are rich because they're lying and stealing their way up.) So having power make you "privileged", because a "life of privilege" flows only out of power over others.
>privileged
The idea that anyone doing better in life than you is 'rich'. That 'privileged' is the same as rotten and abusive of you. That anything you do is squandering vast wealth, and is depicted as such because the normal man needs to save up to buy groceries. That 'privileged' is the same as 'oppressor' instead of 'better off.' It's all just class vs class warfare nonsense when we should be lowering prices on essential goods like car insurance, rent, utilities, and food.
Cartoons of the "well off" depict people how they used to be just a little while ago, before the megacorps really started to try for the last drops of our blood.
Back to twitter
This could've been a good MLthread, but people instead chose to talk about family dynamics, and not focus on ML.
>I don't believe in nothing, no more!
will Ladybug ever do this to cat noir again?
Only if you keep playing the WEBM over and over again.
But, you know, she actually should.
I mean there has been three separate incidents where she hit Cat Noir over the head with her yo yo.
I need them to fight one v one no holding back
Maybe next season
>privileged
have a nice day
>Character isn't living in a box in the middle of the street
>"Wow, I can't believe how privileged this character is."
Have we really moved so far that 'parents have a stable job' is all that's needed for someone to be privileged?
There's a difference between "stable job" and "are loaded".
There's also a difference between "stable job" and "brief, lifelong slavery."
Strange that the only ones who care about that are the ones with slavery, and the ones with a stable job to be paranoid that they'll never get another one.
Because superpowers are for rich people this is the reason why in comics america is fuller with superheroes that the rest of the world together.
Japan was not rich untril recently, and much of the wealth was in the big corporations while people had a more spartan lifestyle. Yet they certainly had a lot of superpowered heroics in manga/anime.
You Cinemaphiles are very privileged here ngl.
