MIRACULOUS  LADYBUG

Set in modern-day Paris, the series focuses on a teenaged junior high school girl named Marinette Dupain-Cheng and her classmate Adrien Agreste. When evil arises in Paris, Marinette becomes Ladybug, while Adrien becomes Cat Noir. However, neither know each other's secret identities: Marinette doesn't realise that Adrien, her crush, is Cat Noir, and Cat Noir doesn't know that Ladybug, his partner and crush, is actually Marinette. Together, they're a crime-fighting duo who protect Paris against the mysterious villain Hawk Moth and his akuma. 

English version now airing Sundays on Nickelodeon.
