Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir (Japanese: ミラキュラス レディバグ&シャノワール) is a manga series based on the Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir.
Synopsis[]
Return to Paris with Marinette and Adrien in the manga of the beloved animated series.
Marinette is your typical high school student. She’s cheery, a bit awkward, and a little clumsy. But what’s not so typical is, she can transform into a superhero! Disguised as the confident Ladybug, Marinette protects the streets of Paris alongside fellow superhero Cat Noir–who, unbeknownst to Marinette, is Marinette’s classmate Adrien. Not only are Marinette and Adrien unaware of each other’s secret identities, they’re also criss-crossed crushes–Marinette has a crush on Adrien, while Cat Noir has a crush on Ladybug! As if being a teenager and a crime fighting superhero wasn’t enough![2]
