Hi. So, in the most recent episode of Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir, a new akumatized villain named Robostus was introduced. Seems pretty standard at first, however, an interesting twist was put on the normal akumatization formula, which leads me to believe that he may qualify as a real villain. Since you've obviously seen the show before, and we've had the discussion on whether the Akumatized Villains are true villains or not (as previously discussed here) i'm bringing this to you. Now, i'd prefer if you've seen the episode first, but in case you haven't, just be warned for spoilers

Anyway, the basic explanation is that Markov is a small robot created by Max Kante, who, surprise surprise, gets sad and is therefore akumatized into Robostus, a villain has the power to manipulate technology. However, the thing is, once Robostus is about to get the Miraculouses, he betrays Hawk Moth, turns his lair's entire defense system against him in an attempt to kill him, and decides to take the Miraculouses for himself.

I though Robostus would qualify on the basis that, unlike Hawk Moth's other victims, he is a better example of the Akuma's possesion truly getting to him, and that he was actually a bigger threat than Hawk Moth himself. Hell, considering that he learned of the Ladybug and Cat Miraculouses' ultimate power before he was Akumatized, it's implied that he was planning to betray Hawk Moth and steal the Miraculouses for himself the entire time. I suppose the problem with this is that Markov, like the other villains, retains no memory of what happened to him. Still, I was wondering if it would be possible to create a page specifically for Robostus, as an alter-ego type thing.

I don't have a problem with you disagreeing with this, but I just wanted to know what you think.
