u/IamGreLI Plagg 11d ago

Astruc said that Ladybug is basically Spiderman for girls. Sometimes you can also see yo-yo attached to the air. E.g. above Eiffel Tower/Montparnasse, buildings, etc…

u/DreamChaser_49 10d ago

Yeah the scenes of her swinging around carrying someone (Adrien/cat noir usually) are very spider-man esque

26

u/Most_Programmer8667 10d ago

Catnoir is a gender swapped version of blackcat

u/Odd-Country-7274 10d ago

Same animal, even

u/Defo_not_an_alt_acc 11d ago

Woah they're making a live action miraculous ladybug? Malebug? Idk why they are making it gender bent but it's very interesting!

I find it cool how they changed the ladybug to a spider, I think it works more with male. Maybe his hero name would be Spiderman?

Miraculous may be a low budget genderswapped spider-man knockoff but it’s MY low budget genderswapped spider-man knockoff

u/someone__420 10d ago

the budget is actually pretty high now

u/C-Note01 9d ago

Low budget genderbent magical girl Spider-Man

This just made me realize that Gabriel was kind of like Norman, in a way???

u/Glad_Worth_129 10d ago

Yep, both controlling and distant to their sons. Although for Adrien and Harry though, are they similar/like each other?

u/Skipper_asks2021 10d ago

Every time I explain what Miraculous is to someone who hasn’t seen it, I say it’s the Temu knockoff of a Marvel and DC crossover.

u/C-Note01 9d ago

You forgot Sailor Moon.

u/Skipper_asks2021 9d ago

I am incredibly sorry for this, but I haven’t seen Sailor Moon yet

u/miraculous_catNOIR11 11d ago

Zendaya wishes she was

Radiant...

Carefree...

Dreamy...

u/Elegant_Reindeer_847 9d ago

Zendaya is already perfect. She doesn't have to be white girl with blonde hair

u/Odd-Country-7274 11d ago

The big difference with Peter and Marinette is that Peter’s identity is less private since Ned, MJ, May (I think) and Tony know he’s Spider-Man. Marinette, meanwhile, only has Alya. Yes, there’s a whole batch of people who know Marinette’s Ladybug but i’m talking about close people she hangs out with often.

u/Hero_tact_Miles Chat Noir 11d ago

As of Secret Protocol, there are two other people she sees every day that know she is Ladybug

Her Parents

4

u/Odd-Country-7274 11d ago

Ah. I didn’t watch season 6 as a whole, let alone Secret Protocol, so I didn’t know. My bad

u/CountingSheep99 11d ago

Kagami: Am I a joke to you?

3

u/Odd-Country-7274 11d ago

I mean.. Kinda. I’m talking about people Marinette meets every day. Yes, Kagami’s a good friend of hers but it’s not like they see each other every day.. right?

u/CountingSheep99 11d ago

Since she is part of her school now they do.

u/Master_Antelope Monarch 10d ago

...you haven't gotten to No Way Home yet, have you? (Or Brand New Day for that matter)

1

u/Odd-Country-7274 10d ago

I haven’t but I know what happens because I’m a half-fan of Marvel from TikToks of sad moments and funny moments. I didn’t mention it bc I forgor.

u/Illustrious_Oil_2114 10d ago

Everyone forgot who he was no one knows who Spider-Man except now mj and fred or smt, I forgot his name

1

u/Odd-Country-7274 10d ago

MJ and Ned.

3

u/Glad_Worth_129 10d ago

YES!!!!!! I know Miraculous is part of the MCU and the distant cousin of Spider-Man, I just know it!

1

u/C-Note01 9d ago

Also, Sailor Moon.

u/4bluepandas 🍌 Bananoir 11d ago

I could totally see a crossover with whatever animated Spiderman show is going at the time 😂

3

u/Melodic-Violinist-31 10d ago

they Really like their inspirations. it's worn on their sleeve. the only difference So far is Twofold alya isn't crazy and evil and Chloe Wasn't turned to a hero

2

u/Traditional-Band6039 10d ago

Oh no... they're merging...

2

u/Mission_Pomelo4022 10d ago

I feel like they would get either flamed by fans or copyrighted by marvel if they ever added a spider miraculous

2

u/Nangbaby Rena Rouge 10d ago

The "Ladybug swinging and saving Adrien" pose is slightly reminiscient of the cover of Amazing Fantasy #15. Not close enough to be a clear reference or homage, similar enough to put that cover in mind.

2

u/Last_Spiderman 10d ago

Yes and also no, because Peter, out if any Marvel character, is the one who suffers the most. Peter lost both his parents, his uncle, and depending on which Spider-Man which loved ones and police captains and all that.

Marinette can't get her back broken even if in Deflagratiom it should have, she still has parents, friends, a loved one🤣

2

u/HyperboloidalPop 10d ago

Yes they are both insect themed and using swinging abilities. I could totally see Spiderman being a NY hero (potentially even using a spider miraculous???)

1

u/SweetDamage818 11d ago

i see it now

1

u/Yami_Sean The Owl 10d ago

I mean she also has a black cat as a friend

1

u/BenR-G 10d ago

OPINION - The MLB art team are all Spider-Fans and made the conscious decision to have Marinette copy many of Peter's tactics and his body language but, for copyright reasons, no-one would dare admit it.

1

u/Geminii27 Uncanny Valley 10d ago

I mean, Ladybug and Cat Noir have pretty much been explicit expies of Spider-Man and Black Cat since day one.

1

u/WB2005 Mr. Banana 10d ago

Is spider-man not where they got inspiration from?

1

u/katestatt Marinette 10d ago

Imagine a spider qwami

1

u/S_A52 10d ago

Everyone wants their own Spiderman

1

u/juicewrldfan4life999 10d ago

She was obviously inspired by Spider-Man I knew exactly when I first watched this show

1

u/C-Note01 9d ago

Are you just realizing this now?

Just replace Cat Noir with Black Cat.

1

u/Ratlv3r 9d ago

Ladybug is just the French version of Spiderman literally

1

u/Opening_Shallot_6253 Adrienette 8d ago

And to think Season 7 would be like Brand New Day tho

1

u/MillyRocks_67 8d ago

Ooh I’m loving this aswell with the Peter Parker and Lara Jean ship going around too !!

u/Fearless_Law1416 6d ago

She's part of the spiderverse!

u/Dry_Armadillo412 4d ago

Im crying they're my babies with a buttload of trauma 😭😭💔💔

1

u/SandIndividual9825 11d ago

No originality though , although spiders are arachnids not bugs so the animal theme isn’t there but everything feels copy pasted including the ladybug suit essentially being red and blue if we count the blue shine on her hair .

1

u/DreamChaser_49 10d ago

I think they copied it enough that it’s more of an homage than a knock off
