My Meta

I’m also writing a lot of Miraculous Ladybug meta on this blog, so I decided to make a catalogue of it all. If you wanna read through it all, including meta I’ve reblogged from other people, my tag is ml-meta

Miracublog: Not meta, but my liveblog of the Miraculous Ladybug series, watching most of the episodes for the first time with my brother who’d never seen a single episode before

Shera and the liveblogs of power: The liveblog where my brother and I watch She-Ra and the Princesses of power for the first time.

He man and the masters of the liveblog: my bro and I rewatch He-Man and the Masters of the Universe (2002)

The owl blog: my bro and I watch The Owl House for the first time

Episode Wrap-ups: My thoughts on each liveblogged episode after watching it
