Parisian Lycée Students Marinette Dupain-Cheng and Adrien Agreste were not exactly your average everyday teenagers, with one being insanely clumsy and at the bottom of her school's social pyramid, and the other being the son of a world famous fashion designer. Keep in mind that this is all before the two come home from school one day to find magical jewels possessed by tiny and ancient animal themed spirits causally sitting on their desks. And as if that weren't enough, they quickly discover that when put on, the jewels known only as the Miraculous transform their users into superheroes with special abilities that should only belong on the pages of comics and the screens of theaters.
Naturally, the duo (especially Marinette) are reluctant to take up the heavy burden of being Paris' guardians, but when a new threat in the form of a fellow Miraculous holder, who is known to the public as Le Papillon, or Hawk Moth appears not too long after they begin, the two must work together to end his reign of terror. As time passes, the two end up discovering in the process more about each other, and themselves than one would think, while also learning with each new villain what it truly means to be Ladybug and Chat Noir.
