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.
Characters[]
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. She has been accused of being a Canon Sue.
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. He has been accused of being a Canon Sue.
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 they feature 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). While fics of this nature were always a part of the fandom, it saw a massive uptick after the events of the Season 3 episode "Chameleon", a particularly controversial episode. A significant number of the fics written in this type are done in response to the episode's events.
Miraculous and the PPC[]
