Wait, is this from the special or the main series? I get the order mixed up so often. The timeline is confusing when there are so many different releases.

Can you recommend some of the better shows that aren't just filler? I'm trying to convince my friend to watch TV but she doesn't have time for everything.

I read this post a while ago about them having already had an emotional reveal even without the names. In ‘The Last Attack of Shadow Mousier’ the other person gets them to confess their deepest feelings while they are still under the mask. This is even more intimate than them knowing their name and face. The surface layer of a person is their name and their face. The core of a person is how they feel about you, their fears, their loneliness, their love for you. This is what they saw in each other in that episode.
Perhaps we are viewing the “reveal” in reverse. The “reveal” of their names is merely a matter of a piece of paper to be filled out in triplicate. The greatest emotional hurdle has already been leapt. All that is left is a series of logistics to be attended to, all of which is a beautiful way of viewing this situation. For when they do finally find out each other’s names, it won’t be as if they are meeting some stranger; rather, they will be pleased to recognize the very person that they already know so intimately.

I'm waiting for someone to provide a screencap from a storyboard with "AGE: 14" in it. I'm guessing 14 based on prior fandom wisdom here.
So many passionate people out there wondering about Arlo’s age, but really he’s just a drawing with a voice actor behind him. And today, the writer’s choose to go with 14.

This was so great! Season 2, Heroes’ Day, is where they pull off a permanent swap for a little while, but they first toyed with the idea a lot earlier in Reflekdoll where they temporarily swap Miraculouses to confuse Reflekta. In this episode, Marinette becomes Lady Noire and Adrien becomes Mister Bug. I love how the writing of this episode explores their different takes on each other’s powers and how that says a lot about their characters.

Who's counting? The way the story flows is wonderful. As soon as Alya utters a few particularly scathing words in Russian, I'm hooked. I read through the end of the book, desperate for the start of vol 2. The quality of the chapters, not the quantity, is wonderful. Every chapter increases the delicious tension to the point where we can all clearly read her Russian but our hero is (rather sweetly) oblivious. That is so the bulk of the fun of this. I'd read eight chapters of that good stuff over 20 chapters of filler any time of the week. The length of the book is just right for the story that was told.

It’s kind of fascinating to see people’s take on this storyline though. Some people seem to feel really let down by the narrative “turn” (though I get that it was always Chloe), whilst others feel that Grace was always a pretty rotten person, and that the slight perception of redemption was just an illusion. As for me, I feel like the show perfectly conveyed Chloe’s moments of conflict or better placed, doubt. ‘Malediktator’ is a great example of this. There was something within her that wished to move in a better direction and be approved of in doing so. Wanting the reward of having changed is not the same as actually wanting to change however.
When she couldn't keep the Bee miraculous (her reward), she dropped the attempt at becoming better because there was no longer any incentive to keep up the pretence. Incentivising change by extrinsic means only gets you so far. Real, lasting change comes from within when there’s had a genuine shift in values. Chloe’s values never changed – all she wanted was a new accessory to add to her old personality. In not wanting to be good any more, she hadn’t become evil: she’d simply stopped pretending there was any benefit to behaving well.

I remember the moment like it was yesterday—reading 'Heir of Fire' and getting that spine-tingling reveal that Celaena Sardothien was actually Aelin Ashryver Galathynius. It was around the middle of the book when Rowan, her fae mentor, starts piecing together her true identity. The way Sarah J. Maas built up the tension was masterful, dropping subtle hints like her connection to Terrasen and her unnatural fighting skills. When it finally clicked, it felt like a punch to the gut in the best way possible. That reveal changed everything, turning Celaena from a deadly assassin into a queen with a destiny. The emotional weight of her past and the burden of her future made her character so much richer. I couldn’t stop flipping pages after that, desperate to see how she’d embrace her true self.
What made it even better was how it recontextualized earlier books. Suddenly, all those little moments in 'Throne of Glass' and 'Crown of Midnight' made sense—her nightmares, her hatred for the king, even her bond with Chaol and Dorian. It’s one of those twists that rewards rereads, because you pick up on so much foreshadowing you missed the first time.

Even after all these years, the smallest details, almost childish, that reveal that yes, we love rockets too. A burn mark on a launchpad model, a children’s drawing on a wall of a control room with a stick figure in a rocket, a half burned checklist in a drawer. And those props and details are almost always linked to much bigger Easter eggs. Like a scratched serial number on an object which, once cleaned, reveals a password. Or a faded poster of a fictional space program in a corner, which, in another place of the scene, will trigger a brief animation of a launch.
Nerds can likely recognize all these tiny items of love and figure out a chronology of hidden lore in the game. New players, on the other hand, get to experience the joy of stumbling upon little developer made up facts about orbital mechanics, hidden in the game, as they uncover little developer jokes about space. The evidence for me that the developers are space nuts just like us is that they included so many of these lovingly detailed pieces for the curious and patient player to uncover and bring to bear on past scenes – and thus relive them as if reconnecting with an old friend.

It’s roughly two-thirds of the way through their initial clandestine year. That she goes to school, has family dinner, and hides this massive secret from her life for so long makes the ‘when’ of it all all the more chilling. When her secret can no longer be hidden from the facade of normalcy that she has created, it all comes crashing down around her. Her confession is a symptom of systemic failure in her life, and the parents’ harsh new rules are the system rebooting.
