Watching “The Miraculous Adventures of Ladybug and Cat Noir,” I thought it was fairly clear that neither Marinette nor Adrien knew the other’s secret identity.
However, when watching a fan-subtitled version of a recent French episode (“La Befana”), I saw this:
I’m not sure how this will make make it into the official English version, but it sounds like he’s referring to Marinette by a portmanteau of her name and “Ladybug.” Then again, even in this episode, would Adrien have wasted his time bringing Marinette to the Eiffel Tower if he knew?
And then there’s that little fan comment: Are they saying it’s silly, and that he obviously doesn’t know, or that it’s obvious he does know, and they should stop teasing it?
Does Adrien have any idea of Marinette’s identity?
