So judging from what I’ve read from fans and the creator. Akumatuzing Adrien or Marinette is a no go. They’re good guys they were chosen for a reason and they could never be evil it’s just not who they are.

BUT! consider this. Chat is usually the first to respond and transform, he’s the first to fight. What if there is a situation where Chat loses his miraculous. Like Marinette is with the girls and they’re gonna meet Adrien and the boys somewhere. All of a sudden AKUMA ATTACK! the boys being boys get the girls out of there including Marinette making it impossible for her to transform. Adrien in the other hand stays behind and transforms into Chat noir. He starts the fight thinking Ladybug will show up but she won’t cuz she’s surrounded by her friends. Chat noir continues fighting but he gets overwhelmed and has his miraculous taken so he gets turned back into Adrian and Adrian runs away from the battle because he is just Adrian now he can’t fight. so he gets back to the group and says he saw cat noir get taken down and then ladybug still never shows up then the episode ends with the villain returning with cat’s miraculous.

It would continue like this for a couple episodes. Ladybug is the only hero for a while and she has trouble fighting off villains but then near the end Adrien shows up in a home made Chat noir costume and helps Ladybug win the day. Ladybug could be absolutely against it saying she doesn’t want any innocent people hurt. But Adrien threatens her with revealing his identity something she’s been against since the beginning. Whether or not it work would Introduce an interesting dynamic. Ladybug sees that it’s not the miraculous that makes them heroes it’s just who they are. Could have a lot of fun with this like chat noir takes a bus to the fight scene or has to ride a moped he calls his meow-tercycle. Plus his costume is badly put together so the mask has trouble staying on and his identity is constantly at risk of being exposed. So Adrien anonymously asks Marinette to make him a costume. So bam!! awesome new costume for chat. Plus Adrien could have all sorts of cat themed gadgets to make up for his lack of powers. A whole season of this easily. And season finale he gets his miraculous back. But here’s the real kicker Adrien/Chat can no longer allow his secret identity to be a secret from ladybug anymore and he wants to profess how he truly loves her so he makes an ultimatum. Reveal our identities to each other or we go our separate ways. Ladybug is about to say no but before she can blink he transforms from Chat to Adrien. Ladybug is speechless and stunned and unable to do anything so Adrien seeing she has less than a minute left stalls until she times out. Then ladybug turns back into Marinette and instead of her being happy she’s furious. Now she feels like chat has betrayed her for making her give up her identity and is furious at Adrien for putting himself in danger so much. Ladybug is just full of so much anger and its hard for her and bam!! season ends.

I thought about this all day. I hope someone sees this and I get some feedback on this I’m really curious to see if anyone else thinks this would work.
