Marinette Dupain-Cheng (aka Ladybug) is a main protagonist from the CGI Series. Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir. She transforms into Ladybug with her kwami named Tikki.

Trivia[]

Marinette's hair color is a homage to old comic books that would use blue highlights on black hair.
Following Kagami, Marinette is the only other person that knows that Adrien has a crush on another girl. But like Kagami she is unaware that Adrien is in love with Ladybug, who is her alter ego.
It is revealed that Marinette is a pen-pal to Rarity, because they share one thing in common, which is fashion.
Her responsibilities as a superhero not only include fighting akumatized villains, but also patrolling and many other things.
The name Marinette means "little Mary" (formed from the modified Marion + the French diminutive suffix -ette) in French, which is likely a reference to the ladybug's common name, as well as its name across many cultures, originating from the Biblical character Mary, also known as "Our Lady."
Although not having any romantic feelings towards Cat Noir, in the webisode "Cat Noir as seen by Marinette", Marinette reveals that she's aware he may have a crush on her and she admits she might have given him a chance if Adrien hadn't been around.
In the webisode "New Powers", Marinette mentions out of all the new abilities she has tried so far, her favorite time was when she tried Cat Noir's powers as Lady Noir.
The "Ladybug Vision" shown after using her Lucky Charm is not a superpower, but instead a tool to allow the viewer to see what will happen.
The same rule also applies to Marinette if anyone discovered her identity, then she have to give up Tikki and the Ladybug Miraculous.
