Title: Why you should skip "Marisalt" fics (Read this if you’re new!)
Hey everyone! I’m a 20-year-old Wattpad reader and have seen many stories since I joined the community. When I entered the Miraculous fandom and saw the "Marisalt" community, I noticed a big issue that new fans should know.
If you want Season 4 Miraculous stories, I don’t recommend Marisalt. Here’s why:
1. It ignores her struggles
In Season 4, Marinette is overwhelmed—she’s a kid soldier with heavy secrets, alone, losing friends, and afraid of failing. When stressed, she snaps, makes mistakes, and gets messy.
2. It turns a "Good Girl" into a "Mean Girl" without reason
Marinette is caring and tries to fix things, but in Marisalt, writers make her mean or bossy just to create conflict. This doesn't reflect her character and fuels fan-wars.
3. It’s lazy storytelling
Many stories just have everyone yell at Marinette, ignoring her pain. Good stories explore her struggles, which is better storytelling.
What to read instead?
If frustrated with Season 4 Marinette, seek 'Marihurt' or 'Angst' stories. Look for ones where she gets help or her friends realize her pressure. These treat her as a real person, making stories more satisfying.
Summary:
Avoid stories that hate on her. Find stories that explore her stress for a better fandom experience!
