Top 10 Things to Change or Add to Miraculous Ladybug

We understand that many shows use a formulaic plot, but most of them are intended for preschoolers because young children enjoy repetition - it's a well-known fact. The only show I've heard of that uses a formulaic plot and isn't for preschoolers is Phineas and Ferb. However, the formulaic plot doesn't always work because it imposes too many limitations on a show, hindering proper character development and the establishment of an actual storyline. Formulaic plots can also be boring since you always know what will happen next. I personally enjoy surprises and not being able to predict what will happen next. Formulaic plots certainly don't work well for superhero shows because they involve more than just fighting the bad guy and saving the day; they should explore the lives of superheroes beyond their crime-fighting duties because superheroes are also human beings.

Firstly, Miraculous Ladybug would be much more enjoyable if it didn't rely on a formulaic plot. For example, let's ...more

Unpopular Opinion: (That's just my opinion, if you disagree with me, that's fine, just don't beat me please) I do not like the kwamis, they're annoying and kind of dumb.

The kwamis also set too many limits for the heroes and are not fitting for a superhero show, so it'd be better if they never existed entirely and the miraculous is still the same but there's no kwamis, instead, it's like Green Latern's ring and Ben's omnitrix from Ben 10. Where in order to "transform", put on the superhero suit, they just tap the Jewel one time and to get out of the suit, they tap the Jewel twice. And there's no timing out after the big guns is used once, instead it's used for a limited amount of times because look at all the superheroes we know, they can use their powers limitlessly like Cyclops can shoot his eye lasers as many times he pleases. So, Ladybug can use her lucky charm many times without timing out. Instead, I will have the superhero suit work like Iron Man's suit, like ...more

Honestly, the superheroes', some of the akumatized villains, and Hawkmoth/Shadowmoth could've been better design wise. Like, for example, I would make Ladybug's suit similar to Ant-Man's suit in the MCU and Cat Noir's suit similar to Black Panther (the "tail" is very distracting and impractical, a supervillain could use it to trip him a lot). Also, I HATE Shadowmoth's design, it's too stupid. I think Hawkmoth would look a lot better if his face were concealed, he'll look a lot more menacing, I will make his suit be a mix of Baron Zemo's and Spider-Noir's suits.

I also hate Loveeater's design like, WHAT IS THAT?!? It's ugly! It makes me want to vomit, it looks Two Face as a wad of chewed bubblegum. I would make them look like a pink Carnage with four eyes, two mouths, and four arms, that would be a lot cooler!

Like, I would make Jagged Stone a secret superhero, it would be very interesting. Like, you would see a superhero going around and saving lives and you have no idea until later on, the superhero is really a rockstar named Jagged Stone. Like, I am inspired with Dazzler and Luna Snow, Marvel's superheroes who are also famous singers. So, Jagged Stone being a secret superhero would be cool and I can see him having photokinesis (light manipulation) and somewhat limited pyrokinesis (fire manipulation) that he also uses in his shows to make his performances more interesting just like Dazzler using her powers for her shows. I also would make Max's mom an Iron Man-type hero that springs into action and we don't know it's her until later on.

Ladybug could use more powers. For example, she could have more ladybug-related abilities such as the ability to fly and shrink, which could be inspired by Ant-Man and the Wasp. Cat Noir is already like Black Panther, so we could just give him the ability to climb walls like a lizard. Bunnyx shouldn't just be Cable without a bazooka (he has a huge gun, but I forgot what it's called). Instead, we could give Bunnyx the ability to travel to alternate dimensions and have Mary Poppins-like powers (her umbrella gives off Mary Poppins vibes, cue Yondu saying "I'm Mary Poppins, y'all!"). Finally, we could give Ms. Hound and Flairmidable the ability to not only fetch items but also have Wolverine and Deadpool's healing factor and superhuman sense of smell. I could list more, but we would be here for eternity.

This trait should GO it's not funny and she needs psychological help!

I think the show would be a lot better if Felix and Adrien were twins instead of cousins and I also love the good twin/evil twin cliche! And c'mon, Cable has an evil twin brother, Stryfe, so Adrien having an evil twin brother will be just as cool!

Zoe's just there to make Chloe look like a heartless monster, she isn't, she is just a bully that is that way because she's been abused by her mother. She should've stayed on the path of becoming a better person.

What if part the issue is that Lila has psychosis? Lila gets upset when she gets called out for her lies. In the episode Relevation, she cried and ran out of the classroom when she thought Marinette called her an idiot.

Apparently, the leaked Miraculous Ladybug Bible reveals why Lila lies a lot, she has dissociative personality disorder, aka multiple personality disorder and the "lies" are really her other personalities and she has several she takes on.

While that's more interesting and a more plausible reason, it could've been utilized better like Marc Spector in Moonknight is more believable than Lila from what I've seen!

There's got to be a reason, maybe she's someone who think she's a boring and uninteresting person and she thinks lying will make people like her because she hates the person who she really is.

I like Zoe a lot. But I think that, character creation-wise, she is too attached to Chloe for her to matter on HER OWN. She has such a great concept (and a dash of mystery!), but it has mostly gone to waste!

I love Zoe and I feel she is in Chloe's shadow. She needs more focus!

I know this is the most controversial one, it has nothing to do gender, I believe in gender equality! But I think the story would be a lot better if Marianette were a boy and Adrian were a boy. It will subvert expectantions, the behavior of Mariette would be addressed earlier on, and I just think the story would make a lot more sense.

Like, Male Marianette, Marino as Ladybug like a teen boy who's a ladybug-themed superhero would turn the tables like it will be like that male ladybug in Bug's Life, everyone thought he was female so it breaks stereotypes. I also would have him struggling with his crush, school life, and have very low self esteem but he becomes a better person over time and a great superhero.

And female Adrien, Adriana is just a teen girl who's father see her as a throphy and is very overprotective of her and his relationship with her will be changed to Kingpin's relationship with his adoptive daughter, Maya/Echo. I don't know much about it but from my ...more

Zoe could teach her how to make friends and how to cut down on lying. I hope they both become friends in the show eventually, especially since Chloe is now out of the picture(see the episode "Revolution") But Zoe would probably see one of Lila's new identities. But that is okay. Zoe would probably sympathize with Lila because she's been in a similar situation where she's had to pretend to be something she's not. I love both Lila and Zoe! ❤️

Lila may have become friends with Kagami and Chloe, but I think her and Zoe becoming friends would be interesting. They are pretty similar.

In the episode Re-Creation, she now has became the new Hawk Moth. But that doesn't mean that she can't have friends. Gabriel Agreste had some friends. I know Lila got exposed in the episode Confrontation, but really she deserves love and friends. With a new identity, I'm sure most of the kids will be friends with her again(except Marinette of course). I would like her to stay friends with Kagami Tsurugi. And I'd like her to be friends with Zoe Lee. And also maybe Felix Fathom. She needs friends.

This would still be a good idea, especially since Lila has a new identity. I don't think she and Chloe are friends anymore(see the episode "Revolution"), but I'm assuming that Lila is still friends with Kagami even though the status right now is unknown. I think she should become friends with Zoe and Felix. Especially since Zoe has been in a similar situation as Lila and Felix is also similar to her as well and since he is Kagami's boyfriend. I hope Kagami and Lila stay friends no matter what. Maybe she and Felix could help her and show her love and kindness. Kagami did tell Lila once that she loves her.

Yes, I totally agree! No one should have that annoying brat in the show. She's mean to Lila, Chloe, Kagami, her friends, and to Cat Noir. Even I like him better than that brat.

I really don't like her. Why can't Lila Rossi replace her as Ladybug? I like Lila, but I dislike Marinette.

I would love a redemption for Lila. She could join the miraculous heroes! At least have her redeem herself!

Even with a new identity(see "Confrontation" and "Collusion", Lila or Cerise or whoever she is needs a redemption.

Marinette, you need to stop hating on Lila. She just has issues. I'm sure she just wants to be friends with you. Become her friend already or at least make peace.

I hate it when Marinette/Ladybug is almost always so harsh to poor Lila.
