”Anonymous asked:
How long do you think Ladybug’s yo-yo is?”
The answer is simple and can be found in this tweet by Hawkdaddy:
“[Length] of string is controlled by willpower.” “probably infinite”.
But since we can, we calculated the length of the Yoyo String from this particular scene from “Le Bulleur” anyway:
TL;DR: It’s around ~142 meters long in that scene. Rough approximations and all.

“headphones-lollipops asked:
But, Tom and Sabine’s eyes aren’t brown? From the picture you used, it looks like Tom’s eyes are green and Sabine’s eyes are grayish. Idk if it’s just that picture and if they look different in the show though.”
A lot of people have asked about this, so we’re not gonna ignore it. However, even if Marinette’s parents have different eye colors from what we mentioned, it’s not going to affect the eye color of Marinette’s children because they will still both have the blue gene because Marinette already has the double recessive blue. But since I’m feeling good today, I made some Punnett squares to illustrate some possible genotypes for Marinette’s parents while still being capable of producing blue-eyed children.
Anyway, genetics is weird and complicated. It takes a lot of individual genes to determine how much pigment is produced by the body to make our eyes a certain color. To make things simpler, we followed Mendel’s methods of looking at the visible physical traits and creating assumptions from parent and offspring phenotypes. It’s very difficult to trace which exact genes are present in these characters that affect their eye color.

If Adrien and Marinette had children, what eye color would they have?

It’s time for mlscience’s first actual post! This topic is actually the thing that started it all. A few days ago in the mlsubbing chat, we stumbled upon the topic about what color Marinette and Adrien’s children would be. The result is the above graphic.
Using the beauty of the basics of Mendelian inheritance and Punnett squares, we concluded that if Marinette and Adrien were to have a child, there’s a 50% chance of it having green eyes and another 50% chance of getting blue.

Greetings! Today, we are glad to announce that we are formally opening the new mlscience blog.
The initial idea from this blog came from alphatoronado and azurajae.
We aim to document and conduct *research* on every aspect of the CGI show Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir (Also known as Miraculous or simply Ladybug; Miraculous: Les Aventures de Ladybug et Chat Noir in French) and its resulting fanbase.
In the future, expect posts that will explain how we think certain elements in the show work, as well as show theoretical possibilities and actual physics calculations that would give us clearer views of Ladybug and Chat Noir’s superhero capabilities. We would also delve into more trivial parts, such as what eye color Marinette and Adrien’s children could have using basic knowledge of Mendelian genetics.
We also plan to present updates and publish the results of the currently ongoing Miraculers Plotting Project on this blog. If you haven’t yet, please answer this survey to help complete a detailed study of the current fandom’s geographical presence.
We’re also looking for potential contributors; if you think you’re up to it, please email alphatoronado@gmail.com.
For future posts and updates, please follow mlscience.tumblr.com!
