>>105133093>Even Sailor Moon, which ML seemed heavily based off, had episodes that focused on other characters, even if she always got the killing blow because the stock footage was set up for that much like only Ladybug can revert the akuma.You mean like how the Chloe episodes focused more on Chloe? Or how the Anasi episode focused more on Alya and Nino? Or how Adrien has had several episodes where he was the primary focus? Sure Marinette is never absent from an episode but neither was Usagi from Sailor Moon.
The show has had episodes that focus on other characters, she isn't the focus of every episode, she is just always there which is different from always getting the spotlight. So your complaint when you get down to it is that "Chat Noir is useless". When any of the one shot heroes come in Ladybug actually needs their help to save the day, while in the case of Chat Noir half the time he's more of a hindrance as he gets taken over by a random enemy. Or is otherwise indisposed and Ladybug is left fighting on her own or enlisting the help of a new hero.
You similarly want to have a solo episode for Adrien (even though the boy is actually boring and doesn't have much going on in his life) and the show to treat him more like a second main character, because you think that he shouldn't be a sidekick which he is.
