8)and this deeply is so incredible to me. I already LOVE that new season if it wasn't clear already hehe

7)London (guess she achieved it in the fight scene with Timestalker where she regains her self-confidence and fights "Lila" in a beautiful parallel with the first season's ending). I don't know if it makes sense to you, but anyway, having the possibility to analyze and overthink a cartoon that much

6)he's fine with what happened. So yeah, to conclude, his chara design makes sense, and it's a detail that I absolutely love. He wears the same outfit because consciously or not, he's struggling to move on, and in comparison, Marinette changed her outfit because she achieved her grief in the special

5)which was showing Adrien chilling in his garden with his friends. But what I mean is that symbolically, Adrien didn't move on about this traumatic event, and seeing him smile and chill with his friends doesn't mean the problem is solved. We didn't see any scenes that could suggest that

4)In the over half, she slowly gets through this shock and ends up saving the day (and space time) again. But do you remember who else was completely destroyed after Gabriel disappeared ? Unlike Marinette, we never saw Adrien move on this trauma, except for the finale of the season 5

3)He didn't change, he didn't move on. Stay with me, I'm gonna use the special London episode.
In this special, something stands out : Marinette success to overcome what could have turned into a trauma, the death of Gabriel. In the first half of the episode, she's completely shocked,

2)The outfit of a person says so much about them, same thing for characters, and here's what I understand when I look at Adrien.
In the whole main cast, he stands out because he didn't change, and I like to think that it is a physical representation of his mental/psychological state :
