Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir

Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir, also known as Miraculous Ladybug or just Miraculous, is a French animated television series about a pair of Parisian teenagers named Marinette and Adrien, who have superhero identities as Ladybug and Cat Noir, respectively.

Marinette Dupain-Cheng
She is the primary protagonist, a high school student who wants to be a fashion designer. She possesses the Ladybug Miraculous, which allows her to transform into Ladybug. A lot of the story's conflict results from her crush on Adrien. She is kind, but easily gets nervous. She is quite clumsy, especially around Adrien. However, in her Ladybug form, she is confident and coordinated. Neither knows the other's identity. See her page on the Miraculous wiki for more details.

Adrien Agreste
He is the deuteragonist, and attends the same high school as Marinette. His controlling father is a fashion designer. Adrien possesses the Black Cat Miraculous, which allows him to transform into Cat Noir. He has a crush on Ladybug, but not Marinette. As Cat Noir, he tends to act rashly. See his page on the Miraculous wiki for more details.

Gabriel Agreste/Hawk Moth
He is Adrien's dad, and secretly the villain Hawk Moth, who uses magical butterflies called Akumas to turn others into supervillains.

In Fanfiction
Given how central the 'ships are to the show, it's no surprise that it features prominently in fanfic as well.

Another type of fanfic commonly encountered is the "salt fic" wherein the author has written the story to bash a certain character(s).
