"Being Cat Noir's awesome. I can finally do whatever I wanna do and say whatever comes to mind!"

A classmate of Marinette's, a boy who lives with his wealthy, distant father. Even at school, he's a bit aloof, although considerate. Adrien really opens up to his best bud, Nino. Adrien works part-time as a model, and is a Teen Idol in his own right. But he really comes into his own when he takes out his magical ring that turns him into the superhero Cat Noir. Cat Noir is quick with an insult, quicker with a pun, and as confident as - well, as the cat that got the cream. Cat Noir makes no secret of his big ol' crush on Ladybug; unfortunately for all parties, Adrien doesn't notice Marinette's humongous crush on him.

  • 10-Minute Retirement:
    • Miraculous World: New York - United HeroeZ sees him renounce Plagg in New York over his own disappointment in accidentally using his Cataclysm on Uncanny Valley and failing to live up to his promise to stay and protect Paris to Ladybug. Adrien's plane back to Paris doesn't even touch down before Uncanny Valley brings him the Cat Miraculous to put back on to stop Miraclonizer.
    • Again in "Kuro Neko", when he believes Ladybug doesn't need him anymore now that she has the rest of the team. After a stint as Cat Walker (It Makes Sense in Context), he comes to accept that Ladybug might not need him for every situation, but she is always going to respect him as her primary ally.
  • Aesop Amnesia: After acting cold to Ladybug in "Glaciator" for seemingly playing with his feelings, he apologizes to her for his behavior, accepts her rejection, and is seemingly happy with their friendship. However, come "Frozer", he tries again with similar results.
  • Affectionate Nickname:
    • "Adrikins" from Chloé.
    • He's called "kitty" occasionally by Ladybug.
  • Alliterative Name: Adrien Agreste.
  • Always Save the Girl: If it's between himself and Ladybug, he will always sacrifice himself without hesitation. Especially in "Timebreaker," where he lets an Akumatized Alix tag him to save Ladybug (knowing it means he might disappear forever), and "Gamer 2.0" where the Akumatized Max forces Cat Noir and Ladybug to fight each other before they can fight him, and Cat Noir doesn't even hesitate to throw the match for her. Justified since Ladybug is the only one who can purify akumas and fix any damage caused during the fight, which would include his own sacrifice in most cases.
  • Amazon Chaser:
    • As shown in the Origins Episode, Adrien's attraction to Ladybug is just as much her being a badass superheroine as it is her looks. He even lampshades it:

      Cat Noir: She's so stubborn! It's so irresistible!

    • While his actions tend to be mixed, there are hints he has an attraction to the strong-willed Marinette (who also happens to be the superheroine, Ladybug). The "Oblivio" episode sees both characters afflicted with amnesia while fighting its titular supervillain, and Adrien quickly goes to expressing admiration for Marinette's quick-thinking under pressure constantly as they go through the episode.
    • Adrien starts to have a modicum of attraction to talented fencer, Kagami in season 2.
  • Ambiguous Disorder: It's not clear exactly what, but it stands out a lot more in season 4. He seems to have an extreme emotional dependence on Ladybug, desperate for her affection/approval, and is seen falling into pits of heavy depression, specifically in Glaciator 2, and Kuro Neko. His father probably doesn't make it any easier for him though.
  • Animal-Eared Headband: As Cat Noir, he wears two cat ear-shaped hairclips that sometimes move as though they were real cat ears. In "Mega Leech", a mini-Malediktator even somehow crawls into his brain via these cat ears.
  • Animal Eyes: When he transforms into Cat Noir, his pupils become vertically slit like a cat's. His sclera (the whites of his eyes) also turn green, mimicking a cat's huge irises.
  • Animal-Themed Superbeing:
    • One of the very rare male cat heroes.
    • His aquatic version trades it for what appears to be triton or salamander motifs.
    • As Aspik, he has a snake motif.
  • Apocalypse Maiden: A male example. As "Cat Blanc" shows, if Adrien is not extracted very carefully from his abusive situation, his Psychoactive Powers might destroy the world when the Awful Truth about his family comes to light.
  • Ascended Fanboy: invoked He's an anime fan who can actually transform into a hero.
  • As Himself: In-universe. He's the voice of Cat Noir in the 2D animated movie, and nobody is aware that Paris' favorite superhero is being played by the man himself.
  • Badass in Distress: Frequently requires rescuing by Ladybug due to being overpowered by the villain.
  • Bad Powers, Good People: He's a bad luck-themed hero with the power to corrode things. This doesn't stop him from using it for good.
  • Because You Were Nice to Me: Deconstructed. Adrien's friendship with Chloé is because of her being his sole friend growing up. However, this leads to him not calling her out on bratty behavior, in fear that the only friendship he's ever had will end. However, when she falsely calls the fire department, allows everyone else at school to get punished for it while abusing her father's influence to pull a Karma Houdini, and shows no remorse over it, Adrien's patience with her is finally pushed too far and he threatens to renounce their friendship. And even that threat doesn't keep working as when he asks her to apologize in "Queen Banana", Chloé gets so mad that she breaks off their friendship.
  • Beneath the Mask: Adrien is the "superhero as true self" variant of this trope. As Cat Noir, he's an adventurous, wisecracking Casanova Wannabe. As Adrien, he's a lonely child at the mercy of a neglectful father who forces him to maintain a somber, perfect reputation. Activating his Miraculous' disguise gives Cat the freedom to act in ways that he never could otherwise (although many of Adrien's insecurities definitely carry over), made obvious in the "Sandboy" episode which shows Adrien's worst nightmare is a cage constantly barring him in more and more, while Cat Noir's nightmare is Ladybug hating him and trying to kill him.
  • Beware the Nice Ones:
    • Adrien is a very sweet and cordial young man. But, even he has his limits. For, he's not afraid to call out anyone, be it Chloé or Ladybug, for their questionable behavior. "Onichan" highlights best why you should never take advantage of his kindness. After Lila smugly worms her way through his private life and deliberately endangers his loved ones and heroic partner, Adrien is very upset with her and threatens to renounce her as a friend if she continues to hurt the people he loves.
    • Adrien is usually patient with Chloé, but even he has his limits with her bratty attitude. After she compromises the class' student film to make it her own power fantasy, she's furious that they would continue without her and dare to make her sister the lead actress. Adrien tells her that she needs to apologize for making the affair all about her again when it was never her's to begin with, reminding her about the promise to be nice unless she wanted to lose him as a friend. Unfortunately, she refuses to change and breaks off the friendship out of spite.
  • Beware the Silly Ones: As Cat Noir, he is a wisecracking Pungeon Master who is usually the Butt-Monkey, but don't forget — he is the wielder of one of the two most powerful Miraculouses, and can corrode anything he touches to dust.
  • Big Man on Campus: Adrien is a very popular and kind character in school, loved by almost everyone.
  • A Birthday, Not a Break: Adrien has to deal with the titular akumatized villain on his birthday in "The Bubbler".
  • Body Horror:
    • In "Style Queen", when Adrien is turned into a golden statue by the titular Akuma, his body slowly crumbles into glitter dust.
    • In "Miraculer", after he is attacked by the titular Akuma as Cat Noir, it's implied that his ribs get slowly disintegrated by Miraculer's Cataclysm.
  • Boring, but Practical: While his Cataclysm is most often used in creative ways to turn the battle, it's also very effective at breaking akumatized objects (like Ikari Gozen's enormous metal sword or Frozer's skates) that can't be broken in other ways.
  • Borrowed Catchphrase: When he takes up the Ladybug Miraculous as Mister Bug, he borrows Ladybug's usual purification phrases.
  • Brainwashed and Crazy: Cat is seemingly gunning for the "Most Times Brainwashed by Villains" world record believed to be currently held by one Samantha Simpson. It happens less frequently in the recent seasons.
    • In the episode "Dark Cupid", he turns bad after being hit by one of the Dark Cupid's arrows. He is cured by The Power of Love via a kiss from Ladybug.
    • In "The Puppeteer", the Puppeteer manages to take control of him through his puppet.
    • In "Princess Fragrance", he falls victim to the villain's mind-control perfume.
    • In "Despair Bear", Cat Noir is briefly mind-controlled when the titular akuma grabs onto his leg.
    • In "Zombizou", he is the second-to-last member of the cast to fall under Zombizou's sway.
    • In "Malediktator", the titular akuma made Cat Noir think and act as a literal cat. That backfires on him hard, though.
    • Up To Eleven and above in "Cat Blanc", where he's akumatized in a Bad Future scenario, destroyed Paris, the moon and many others, Ladybug and Hawk Moth included.
    • In "Mega Leech", he is briefly controlled by one of the miniature Malediktators.
    • In "Ephemeral", Adrien is akumatized for the second time.
  • Break the Cutie: The entire series, but especially season four, is just one tragedy after another for Adrien's character.
    • In "Lies", having to sneak away in order to defend the city makes him lose not just his romantic relationship with Kagami but his friendship with her as well. At least for a while.
    • "Queen Banana" has Chloé break off their friendship as well, when he confronts her about her actions. Meaning that Adrien has lost his oldest and first friend.
    • In "Guiltrip", Cat Noir is so affected by the sentimonster's power that he almost Cataclysms himself!
    • Both "Optigami" and "Sentibubbler" have Cat Noir becoming aware of the growing rift between himself and Ladybug.
    • "Glaciator 2" has Adrien so distraught at the idea that his feelings upset Ladybug, that Shadow Moth actually senses his heartbreak.
    • "Hack-san" reveals that Ladybug told Scarabella her identity and kept it a secret from him.
    • In "Rocketear", Nino believes Alya is cheating on him with Cat Noir and insults him to Adrien's face. Even worse is Nino revealing that both he and Alya know each other's respective identities thanks to Ladybug. And that's all before an akumatized Nino beats up Cat Noir.
  • Broken Ace: He's a popular model with a rich father, well-liked at school, speaks multiple languages, fences, plays basketball, and has tons of fangirls. As Cat Noir, he's loved by the people as a local superhero. However, this comes with a boatload of parental issues and a lonely upbringing.
  • But Not Too Foreign: The last name "Agreste" indicates he's of Italian descent.
  • Butt-Monkey: He tends to be the first one to get comically wounded, thrown around during fights, or subjected to Mind Control (ironically, more often as Cat Noir than as Adrien).
  • Calling the Old Man Out: This is most explicitly shown in "Simon Says", where Adrien (as Cat Noir) calls out his father for not considering his own safety, his stubbornness, and thinking he's above everyone else. Later on, as Adrien, he snarks that there's a lot that Gabriel hasn't noticed about him, ring aside.
  • Cannot Spit It Out: Downplayed. He (as Cat Noir) is quite open about his love for Ladybug, but she thinks his flirting is just for fun and he's not serious. He also doesn't push a relationship on her because he respects her wishes of keeping their relationship as professionals and friends.
  • Cat Boy: As Cat Noir, this is the overall theme of his appearance; he magically gains cat-like eyes, but the cat ears and tail are just hair clips and a belt (though they still move as though they were real).
  • The Champion: A Downplayed Trope. Cat Noir always places Ladybug's safety over his own, shielding her from harm even with his own body... This doesn't mean he won't question her decisions if he disagrees with her.
  • Character Development: In the beginning, Adrien would only speak up sparingly against Chloé's mean actions because she was his Only Friend during the times he was homeschooled. Eventually, he stops making excuses for her and starts to actively reprimand her behavior. Incidentally, he starts to rebel against his father more often, albeit subtly.
  • Character Tics: Puts his hand behind his head when around his crush, Ladybug.
  • Chick Magnet: He has his fair share of admirers, more so in his civilian alter-ego, which is pretty expectable considering he's a very popular Fashion Model.
    • Marinette virtually has only eyes for Adrien, becoming easily jealous when another takes an interest in him. And she admits that if "Adrien" wasn't around, she would like Cat Noir.
    • Chloé can't stop flirting with him, even when he makes it clear he only likes her as a friend.
    • Lila was instantly smitten with Adrien and lied about being close with Ladybug and being from a family of superheroes just to get closer to him.
    • Not as strongly as the rest (which is the subject matter of "Rocketear") Astruc confirmed that Alya thinks Cat Noir is cute.
    • Both Aurore and Mireille are fans of his and go ga-ga whenever they see him personally or a poster picture of him.
    • After "Riposte" and "Frozer", Kagami pretty much let the door open to him, saying she'll be there when Adrien notices he's going after the "wrong target".
  • Childhood Friend: Chloé was his only friend for years. This is why he initially doesn't call her out on her awfulness.
  • Chivalrous Pervert: As Cat Noir he has no qualms constantly flirting with Ladybug, but always stops when she reminds him of the task at hand. Cat Noir adopts a similar persona with other ladies as well (if less love-declaring) which comes back to bite him in "Rocketear" when Nino gets fears that Cat Noir is not chivalrous and may be causing Alya to be unfaithful.
  • Clark Kenting: Not as overt as Ladybug, given his transformation includes bright green sclerae... but apart from that, it's really just slightly lighter hair in a slightly different style with a Domino Mask. To his credit, he is much better at pulling off being a different person entirely than Marinette. Whereas Ladybug is often stuck trying to explain knowledge she can't possibly have, Cat Noir merely pretends not to know similar knowledge.
  • Clueless Chick Magnet: Despite the list of girls in the show under Chick Magnet having an interest in him, there's indications that Adrien doesn't seem to think very much of that and doesn't even notice his popularity with the opposite sex. Plagg jokes about all of his "girlfriends", and the "Rocketear" episode has him require Plagg accidentally convincing him that he may have been too charming as Cat Noir and caused Alya to fall in love with him when his track record should have made that fear a lot easier to consider.
  • Color Character: Called "Chat Noir" (lit. Black Cat) in the French dub, and his costume is of a black cat.
  • Color Motifs:
    • Black — His main color scheme as Cat Noir and the color can represent power and beauty.
    • Green — His second primary color scheme (present in his transformation energy and the lights on his ring) due to his natural green eyes, that are more pronounced as Cat Noir.
  • The Conscience: He is always there to interrupt Ladybug whenever she goes too far towards the vigilante/selfish/obsessive side of things. While he's not always completely in the right himself, his presence makes her a much better superhero.
  • Covert Pervert: Not as Cat Noir, who's open about his interests in Ladybug (i.e., like seeing her in a bikini while grinning flirtatiously, trying to lean in for a kiss, being visibly and vocally excited over there being two Ladybugs, etc.), but as Adrien he keeps his thoughts to himself, making him this.
  • Crazy Jealous Guy: Downplayed. While Cat Noir doesn't mind Ladybug hanging around other guys, he doesn't like it when they express interest in her. One particular Villain of the Week was the result of him lying about his relationship with Ladybug out of jealousy.
    • Played for laughs in "Onichan": Cat Noir states how much better he is than Adrien. With a terrible pun, of course.
  • Cultured Badass: He can speak fluent Chinese, fencing is one of his hobbies, and he's a secret superhero.
  • Dance Battler: Like Ladybug, he doesn't stay still in combat. However, he is more prone to act more animalistic; running on all fours at times.
  • Dark Is Not Evil: He wears dark clothing in civvie and alter ego forms, but is on Ladybug's side. He also has a set of powers that would normally lend themselves towards being a villain, but fights for good.
  • Dark-Skinned Blond: Adrien's skin tone has a slight natural tan. It's most noticeable against Cat Noir's black catsuit.
  • Destructive Saviour: Since his miraculous is imbued with the power of destruction, he is capable of causing mass devastation. Unlike most examples, this is often weaponized against the villains they are fighting because Ladybug's power of creation is capable of repairing whatever damage he causes.
    • In the New York special, it is implied that he possesses a lingering sense of guilt over this, afraid that he could cause genuine harm with it if he isn't careful, a nightmare that becomes a reality when he accidentally cataclysms fellow hero Uncanny Valley during a fight.
  • Determinator: Best exemplified in "Desperada", where he (as Aspik) tries to save Ladybug's life 25,913 times (which, assuming he went close to the five-minute time limit each time, means he was in the loop for roughly 89 days) before giving up.
  • Deuteragonist: To Ladybug's Protagonist.
  • Didn't Think This Through: As Cat Noir, he has a tendency to jump into action without a plan first. This rarely ends well for him.
  • Disney Death: Happens to him twice.
    • In "Timebreaker", after protecting Ladybug from Timebreaker, he becomes one of her victims and gets his energy taken, causing him to fade away from existence. Luckily, after Timebreaker and Ladybug went back to the past, all of them including him are back.
    • In "Gamer 2.0", he performs a Heroic Suicide by voluntarily falling off the arena to allow Ladybug to continue, basically disappearing from existence until the Lucky Charm fixes everything.
  • Distressed Dude: Has been captured and tied up a number of times in the first season.
  • Dogged Nice Guy: Despite Ladybug's continued rejection he continues to hope that she'll "fall for [him] one day". Some episodes have him get distraught at his hopes still not panning out, and "Glaciator 2" has him try to stop this after realizing he's annoying Ladybug doing this, thinking that trying to be more himself with her might work better instead of constantly flirting.
  • Dork Knight: He's a studious, kind-hearted, sweet Ace who genuinely cares about others and literally Jumped at the Call. He's also a dorky, punny cat-boy, who despite being polite and pretty friendly, started the series as a homeschooled kid who had difficulty relating to his peers. He got better after Character Development kicked in.
  • Dual Wielding: His staff can split in two if needed.
  • Dub Name Change: In the original French version, he is known as "Chat Noir", which is French for "black cat". Most dubs translate his name totally or partially ("Cat Noir" in the English version; "Black Cat" in the Korean version).
  • Dude, Where's My Respect?: Implied in "Syren" when Ladybug and Plagg didn't explain why they were keeping secrets from him. Also, some people, Ladybug frequently included, treat Cat as the number 2 and assistant of the duo. As Adrien, he's constantly humbled (physically and verbally) by Kagami on fencing, despite having the same level of ability.
  • Even the Guys Want Him: He has an obsessive fanboy, Wayhem, who constantly chases him.
  • Expressive Accessory: The ears and tail of his Cat Noir costume are nothing but hair clips and a belt, but they sometimes move like an actual cat ears and tail, reflecting his mood.
  • Expy Coexistence: Adrien was made to replace the original concept character for Cat Noir, Félix, who was a more brooding and moodier boy. However, Félix ended up being introduced in Season 3 as Adrien's cousin.
  • Extreme Doormat: Downplayed. His fear of loneliness is such that (before Character Development kicks in) he won't assert himself socially.
  • Extremely Protective Child: In "Simon Says", when the titular akumatized villain goes after his father, Adrien drops his usual cavalier attitude as Cat Noir, fiercely attacks against the akuma's hypnotized cronies, and yells at his stubborn father to listen to someone else for once and get to safety.
  • Fairy Tale Motifs:
  • False Flag Operation: In "Gorizilla", Adrien manages to pull a similar trick to Gabriel's plan in "The Collector", with Wayhem's help. Gabriel comes dangerously close to discovering that Adrien and Cat Noir are nearly one and the same, only to fail due to Adrien's quick thinking and his own morality. Likewise, Adrien trusts Ladybug enough to throw himself off the top of a skyscraper because she asked, trusting that she'll save him without him having to reveal his identity.
  • Family Eye Resemblance: In the English dub, Ladybug notes that he has his mother's eyes.
  • Fashion Model: He models for his father's fashion company.
  • Flexing Those Non-Biceps: As Cat Noir, he tries to show off his non-existent musculature to Marinette and Lady Wifi. They are not impressed.
  • Flower Motifs: Roses. He usually presents red roses to Ladybug as a symbol of his love.
  • Forbidden Fruit: Although he is not the trope, his Cataclysm power evokes the imagery of the "untouchable beauty" and whoever he dates, his father intends to always be controlling him.
  • Friendless Background: He states that before he started going to Marinette's school, he didn't have any friends (though he has known Chloé for a while).
  • Fun Personified: Cat Noir comes across as this to Ladybug so successfully that she's surprised every time he "breaks character".

    G-L

  • Genre Savvy: He believes that a beautiful girl falling out of the sky and fighting supervillains alongside him is the universe's way of telling him she's his soulmate. He's not wrong.
  • Gilded Cage: He felt this way about his life before he became Cat Noir, going so far as to run off so he could meet other kids.
  • Good Cannot Comprehend Evil:
    • Downplayed. He believes strongly that most people can be reasoned with and met on diplomatic grounds. Sometimes this works, and the person is genuinely misguided (for example, Marinette). Other times, he overestimates people's willingness to change (Chloé and Lila, for example).
    • Averted with supervillains. The one time Hawk Moth tries to "reason" with the heroes he isn't having any of it, while Ladybug does briefly try to hear him out. Likewise, once he gets a good look at just how genuinely malicious Lila can be, he became much more hostile and untrusting to her.
  • Hair of Gold, Heart of Gold: He is blond and extremely kindhearted.
  • He Cleans Up Nicely: While Adrien is already attractive in both his civilian and Cat Noir outfits, his attractiveness becomes more dashing when he wears his black suit.
  • Hell-Bent for Leather: Cat Noir's outfit is essentially a leather catsuit (no pun intended).
  • Heroes Prefer Swords: Zigzagged. Adrien takes fencing classes and is talented in it, but doesn't use a sword weapon in battle. However, he does incorporate his fencing skills into combat.
  • Heroic BSoD:
    • In "Cat Blanc", after finding out that his mother is comatose and that Hawk Moth is his father all along, he becomes incredibly furious, hurt and devastated about these revelations, and gets akumatized as a consequence. As Cat Blanc, he manages to resist Hawk Moth's control for a moment, but unfortunately, the trauma becomes so great it overloads his Cataclysm, reducing Paris into a flooded wasteland and all the citizens (Ladybug and Hawk Moth included) are turned into lifeless statues. After that, he still remains in his akumatized self all alone in the ruins of Paris, suffering from severe mental instability because of his despair, pain and guilt for his actions. Fortunately, he gets better thanks to the past Ladybug.
    • In "Miraculous New York", Cat Noir accidentally uses Cataclysm on Uncanny Valley and kills her. Luckily, she gets better thanks to Ladybug's power, but he is still completely devastated and even temporarily gives up his Miraculous.
  • Heterosexual Life-Partners: He is Nino's best friend. They enjoy hanging out with each other, and they sit together in class. This is to the point that Nino actually goes to Adrien's father in hopes of getting him to allow Adrien a birthday party, and becoming visibly upset when he fails. Keep in mind that Nino is usually pretty laid back.
  • Homeschooled Kids: He only began attending middle school at the start of the current school year, and initially has trouble making new friends because of his association with Chloé; not helped by the fact that other episodes (eg. "Reflekta") imply that the kids in that collège have known each other for years. And unlike the stereotypical example of being socially awkward, Adrien is pretty friendly, if a bit reserved. However, the Origins episodes reveal that he clearly didn't know how to act around kids his age and had difficulty understanding how classroom etiquette worked.
  • Hypercompetent Sidekick: Adrien under his Cat Walker persona proves to be this to Ladybug. He comes up with the distractions, correctly deduces that Kuro Neko is a Sentimonster (negating the usefulness of his Cataclysm) and comes up with the solutions for the cloth Lucky Charm Ladybug makes.
    • In "Psychomedian", when Ladybug is under the influence of the akuma's powers. He incapacitates the enraged Ladybug when she attacks him, hauls her around, and recreates the Lucky Charm after she smashes it.
    • Again in "Dearest Family", Cat Noir ends up doing most of the work, primarily because Tikki is having her meltdown with the Galette, forcing him to take on four incredibly powerful and versatile Akumas, on his own. Yes it is mostly stalling for time until Ladybug can sort herself out, but he is able to evade and stall the family without assistance.
  • I Always Wanted to Say That: Drops this line in "Reflekdoll" when he gets to purify an akuma as Mister Bug.
  • Iconic Outfit: Adrien's black catsuit he wears as Cat Noir.
  • Ignorance Is Bliss: Adrien is Locked Out of the Loop about many secrets in the show, mainly Ladybug's and Hawk Moth's identities. Adrien's main and only secret is about his role as Cat Noir. Ironically, the fact Gabriel doesn't know that his son is secretly one of his big enemies it's the only thing keeping Adrien safe, even if he doesn't know that. Hawk Moth/Shadow Moth generally makes sure Adrien is out of physical danger when sending villains, which was beneficial to Adrien more than once, except when he's the villain's goal.
  • I Just Want to Be Free: As Cat Noir, he is playful, emotionally expressive, and bold to a fault...because he's overcompensating for the stress of his normal life, in which he can't be any of those things.
  • I Just Want to Be Loved: His loneliness is rooted in his mysterious Missing Mom, emotionally distant father, lack of friends during his childhood sans one, and being homeschooled for most of his life. Word of God also stated that the bell on Cat Noir's suit is a reference to a domestic kitten, conveying his inner desire for a loving home.
  • I Just Want to Have Friends: Adrien dreams of making friends at school, even though he doesn't get off to a good start with his classmates due to his friendship with Chloé.
  • I Kiss Your Hand: Cat Noir does this when he first meets Ladybug, setting up his flirty gentleman persona. He later does the same for Marinette (not realizing they're the same person), Rena Rouge (not realizing she's his friend Alya), and Vesperia (not realizing she's Zoé). Still because of this gentleman persona, he tends also to curtsy to Ladybug, and to Marinette in Oblivio.
  • Innate Night Vision: He gains night vision when he transforms into Cat Noir. Which makes sense, as most cats have better night vision than day vision, and are known for being able to see in the dark comparatively well relative to humans.
  • Instant Flight: Just Add Spinning!: Cat Noir's staff can work like that to keep him in the air for a few seconds or ensure a safe landing.
  • Ironic Name: Adrien's surname, Agreste, means "rustic," which in no way describes his wealthy lifestyle.
  • Jumped at the Call: Is so eager to become a superhero that he transforms into Cat Noir for the first time before he had learned how his powers work.
  • Keeping Secrets Sucks: He's in the receiver part, actually hating when people keep hiding secrets from him, specially Ladybug and Gabriel.
  • Keet: As Cat Noir, he has boundless energy and optimism, as well as a very fun-loving jokester personality.
  • Knight in Sour Armor: Downplayed. The creators mention that the reason it's hard to akumatize Adrien is because he's used to disappointment.
  • The Lancer: To Marinette/Ladybug. His sheltered upbringing by distant parents (primarily his father) contrasts Marinette's friendless, but relatively free childhood by loving and fair parents. As civilians, he's quiet and reserved unlike Marinette's energetic and friendly nature; as superheroes, their roles switch to a degree with Cat Noir having a cocky and playful demeanor to Ladybug's straightforward and professional attitude. Also, either as Adrien or Cat Noir, he's not afraid to call out Ladybug when she does something he doesn't agree with. As for their Miraculouses, they are owners of the two most powerful, but he tends to follow her lead in battle.
  • Large Ham: As Cat Noir, he's a lot more flamboyant and chatty. He also makes the occasional cat pun.
  • Leeroy Jenkins: Whenever a new Villain of the Week shows up, Cat Noir doesn't waste any time in jumping into battle, which usually backfires.
  • Like Parent, Like Child:
    • According to Gabriel, Emilie was stubborn and headstrong when it came to other people's safety, similarly to Adrien.
    • Like his father, Adrien is a popular Paris citizen thanks to fashion (Gabriel being a designer, Adrien a model), but both tend to have a Sugar-and-Ice Personality (although, Adrien is more sugar while Gabriel leans more to ice). Both become more flamboyant, emotional, punny in their Miraculous alter-egos. On a darker note, both also have a selfish kind of love — Gabriel micromanaging his son's life to keep him from danger and endangering citizens to bring his wife back; Adrien, while nowhere near his father's level, initially has trouble accepting Ladybug's rejection. However, both Agrestes are strongly and fiercely dedicated to their beloved ones.
  • Limited Wardrobe: Like Marinette, he always wears the same outfit. It consists of a white button-down shirt with an upturned collar, a black shirt with five horizontal stripes around the chest which are colored (from top to bottom — yellow, olive green, bright green, dark green, and periwinkle), blue jeans, orange sneakers with white laces and a logo of a black butterfly in a circle on the sides, and his Miraculous ring.
  • Little Bit Beastly: As Cat Noir, his eyes are shaped to resemble a cat's.
  • Living Emotional Crutch:
    • Adrien is this to his father, and it's justified given that Adrien's mother (who is implied to be this to Gabriel as well) mysteriously disappeared and Gabriel is obviously afraid of something coming to harm his only child. This is also deconstructed given that Gabriel's way of keeping Adrien safe is to be a complete Control Freak over his son's life, and the situation was even worse in the Origins episodes.
    • Occasionally, Cat Noir is this to Ladybug. In moments where she's entering a Heroic BSoD, he encourages her to not give up. In her moments of self-doubt, Ladybug remembers Cat Noir is always there for her. Specially highlighted in the New York special, when a sequence of bad events made him resign his powers. Marinette is unwilling to be Ladybug anymore if he isn't around.
  • Locked Out of the Loop:
    • He doesn't know his father is Hawk Moth, and Gabriel has only once come close to revealing it.
    • Unlike Ladybug, he is unaware of the significance of the Miraculous book his father has, and for the first half season 2, isn't aware of Master Fu or the identities of the other heroes. By "Syren", he is so fed up with Ladybug's secrets, he first tries to bribe and then outright threatens Plagg into telling him. Ladybug convinces Master Fu to let him into the loop. Even after this, he only has limited knowledge of the identities of the other heroes, mainly those he was directly present for when Ladybug recruited them. The secrets Ladybug is keeping from him become a recurring theme in season four.
  • Lonely Rich Kid: He's quite popular at school, but his home life is horrible: his father is extremely strict and distant, his mother is nowhere to be found (to be more exact, went missing according to Adrien's webisode), and Nathalie, his father's assistant and the person Adrien interacts the most with while he's at home, is also quite cold.
  • Lovable Jock: He fences and plays basketball, but is a Nice Guy.
  • Love at First Sight: Didn't happen, but due to mask-related misunderstandings and Adrien's love of romantic clichés, he thinks it did. Astruc explicitly compares him to a Disney princess.
  • Love Epiphany: Adrien fell for Ladybug while they were dealing with Stoneheart. They successfully defeated him, but Ladybug forgot to purify the akuma, causing more Stonehearts to appear. When she went to take care of the problem, Hawk Moth attempted to break her spirit, but she stayed strong, telling him point-blank she's not afraid of him and he will be defeated. And after she performed a spectacular display of saving Ivan and Mylène, he fell for her right then and there.
  • Love Makes You Dumb: Adrien readily agreed to wield the Snake Miraculous for a chance to impress Ladybug, even though he already has a Miraculous and would be more useful as Cat Noir. Happens regularly as Cat Noir, since being busy wooing with Ladybug makes Cat more vulnerable to attacks.

    M-R

  • Major Injury Underreaction: While Miraculer hitting him with a Cataclysm does send him reeling, he doesn't seem all that fussed about it otherwise, brushing off Ladybug's concern with an almost-nonchalant "I just got Cataclysmed in the ribs.". The way he phrases it makes it sound like he just skinned his knee. Downplayed in the sense that getting hit with it makes a struggle for him to even move properly.
  • Make Them Rot: His Cataclysm technique causes whatever he touches to decay. Being a hero, this is used on non-living things only, although he does ponder what would happen while Brainwashed and Crazy in "Dark Cupid".
  • Master of the Mixed Message: Plenty of Adrien's interactions with Marinette are firmly in Ship Tease territory, yet he has insisted that Marinette is Just Friends. Cat Noir actually inverts the trope by being overly-romantic towards Ladybug, but having such a jokey, over the top, and overly flirtatious personality means that Ladybug doesn't take his advancements seriously. When she finally does realize his sincerity, she gently but firmly turns him down due to her crush on Adrien (who is actually him), and he responds by going on a date with Kagami (after asking Marinette for advice, inadvertently setting her up for hope before breaking her heart) but shows more concern for Marinette during their double date. And then in the end he continues to pursue his feelings for Ladybug.
  • Meaningful Look: He likes to gaze fondly at Marinette while she does something cute, despite his insistence that she's just a friend.
  • Meaningful Name:
    • Chat Noir, which is French for black cat, has bad luck based powers.
    • "Adrien" is the French form of the name Adrian, which can mean "the dark one".
  • Momma's Boy: Implied. Adrien mentioned his father was always stiff and cold even before his mother's disappearance, but any time Adrien is thinking about his mother, it's with fondness and love. This may mean that Adrien had a closer relationship with his mother than his father.
  • Morality Pet: Adrien was this to some extent to Chloé until "Queen Banana". He is the only person who she is never — at least intentionally — mean to.
  • More Expendable Than You: Since Ladybug is the only one that can purify akumas and fix all the associated damage, Adrien prioritizes her safety over his own.
  • More Hero Than Thou: Ladybug's life takes priority over his own. There is no doubt in Adrien's mind about this. Which is semi-justified, because she's the only one whose magic includes a Reset Button, but probably also stems from his own self-hatred.
  • Mr. Fanservice: Adrien is very cute, and so is Cat Noir (adding in a skin-tight leather catsuit). As a model, there are plenty of pictures of him looking cute. Take up a notch in Mr. Pigeon 72 where he's finally shown shirtless for the first time in the show.
  • Mundane Solution: Is prone to this compared to Ladybug. In Kwamibuster, both heroes end up with the threat of having their identities exposed to each other. Ladybug comes up with an insanely complicated and dangerous plan to steer him off her trail, but all Adrien has to do was play dumb.
  • Never My Fault: Averted. Adrien admits to his mistake of not stopping the Bubbler sooner and, while he doesn't confess to being the one responsible for the akumatization of Théo into Copycat, does recognize his hand in it.
  • Nice Guy: Adrien is very friendly and helpful towards everyone, especially his friends.
  • No Sense of Personal Space: He is always leaning into Ladybug's space as Cat Noir and regularly tries to kiss her - to which she usually pushes his face away with her finger. This seems to be his normal mode as Cat Noir - at one point, he worries that Alya has fallen in love with him as Cat Noir, so he goes over to her balcony to make sure she hasn't - while leaning uncomfortably close to her face and speaking in a flirtatious tone *cue facepalm*. It doesn't help matters that Nino is watching and, being unable to hear their conversation, becomes even more falsely convinced that Alya is cheating on him with Cat Noir.
  • No Social Skills: Downplayed. Adrien is aware of social etiquette, but as the Origin episodes showed, he didn't know how to act around other kids his age, since his Only Friend for most of his life was Chloé. As Cat, it becomes more noticeable as the newfound freedom tends to cause him say whatever he's thinking without taking into account how it's making others feel like with his flirting with Ladybug.
  • Not Good with Rejection: Adrien has problems dealing with Ladybug rejecting his advances, becoming cold whenever she rebuffs him. The season three finale and "Miraculous New York" imply he overcomes this flaw.
  • Not the Intended Use: His Cataclysm makes his right hand destroy the next thing it touches - because his right hand is also the hand where he wears his Miraculous ring, he's occasionally activated Cataclysm (or even threatened to) just to prevent his enemies from trying to take hold of his ring.
  • Omniglot: Reveals in "Robostus" that he can speak many languages. Such as Mandarin Chinese, Japanese, English, French and Morse code.
  • Oblivious to Love: Infamously, he misses every indication of Marinette's massive crush on him. In "Stormy Weather 2", it's hinted that Adrien is close to figuring it out, but is held back from fully believing it by his low self-esteem and his social cluelessness leading him to believe Marinette's constant denials.
  • One Head Taller: Adrien is a head taller than Marinette.
  • One-Hit Kill: As Cat Noir, his Cataclysm can cause something to instantly rot and destroy. Subverted when Miraculer steals this power and uses it on him, it just causes immense pain all over his body, but otherwise he's left unharmed.
  • OOC Is Serious Business:
    • He's normally a pretty chill Pungeon Master, but put his father in danger and he reboots into seek-and-destroy mode. Notable examples include "Simon Says", who targets his father after a snub, and "The Collector", who is his father.
    • He usually does his Handshake Substitute with Ladybug as Cat Noir after they defeat an akuma, but whenever he doesn't do it, it's because he's genuinely worried about something else. Either the thought of Ladybug dead ("Animan"), because he doesn't agree with her attitude ("Antibug"), his father being deakumatized ("The Collector"), and when he realized how malicious Lila is as she keep lying to the others and also manipulated Kagami as Oni-chan to kill Ladybug ("Oni-chan").
    • "Glaciator" shows that by interactions with both his crush's identities: While Marinette witnesses a Cat Noir more kind and heartbroken because his lady didn't appear to see the surprise he prepared, Ladybug is stunned by his initial bitter behavior for the same reason.
    • Frustrated by Ladybug's secrets in "Syren", Adrien threatens to throw away his ring if Plagg doesn't spill. Given how much he loves the freedom that being Cat Noir allows him, this shows a lot.
    • In "Frozer", he's bitter again after Ladybug's second rejection and tries to keep the things in a professional level. He even suggests the best way to deal with a villain whose powers they don't know entirely is wait and observe... that coming from the guy who's usually jumping into the action without a second thought. It's implied that the only reason he suggests this is because it goes directly against Ladybug's plan.
  • Opposites Theme Naming: His name means "the dark one", which contrasts with his friend and (unbeknownst to him) romantic rival Luka, whose name means "light".
  • Overly Long Name: "Cat Blanc" reveals that Adrien has at least five middle names. The only one we know is the fifth, Athanase note translates to "immortal".
  • Paper-Thin Disguise: Downplayed. Adrien's Cat Noir disguise gives him a likewise small mask, but also significantly changes his hairstyle and transforms his eyes into green cat ones, making it much harder for someone to guess his true identity. Lampshaded by Alya more than once, who points out that if you put Adrien in a black suit, mask, and cat ears, he looks kind of similar to Cat Noir. Marinette, who likes Adrien but not Cat Noir, denies the resemblance.
  • Parental Title Characterization: In the French dub, he addresses his father using the formal form of "you", which is normally used for strangers, and in the English dub, he consistently uses "father" instead of the more informal "dad". This shows just how distant the two are.
  • Power Gives You Wings: His space-mode give him a pair of neon-green bat wings.
  • Pretty Boy: Adrien is very slender with fine facial features. He's even a model!
  • Prophetic Names: Adrien means "The dark one," yet there's nothing dark about him as a green-eyed, Hair of Gold, Heart of Gold Pretty Boy, unless one takes into account his troubled home life (which the webisodes confirm happened recently, after his mom disappeared) or his stint as Cat Noir, which his parents very much couldn't have known when he was born.
  • Pungeon Master: In the English and French version, he's fond of injecting (mainly) cat puns in his dialogue as Cat Noir. Unfortunately, they're pretty terrible. This might be because he doesn't exactly have a lot of practice telling jokes, as his father and father's assistant are distant, and he has few friends. Besides which, he doesn't exactly have a very large span of time to practice, what with spending maybe 15 minutes as Cat Noir a day, and making maybe 5 puns during that time. Of course, he might be making the puns bad on purpose around the villains to rile them up too, which likely doesn't help.
  • Rare Male Example: Of both a Cat Girl and a Magical Girl Warrior.
  • Reality Bleed: His largest-scale Cataclysm-usage? Destroying an entire Prison Dimension to free all of the Victims of the Week in "Pixelator".
  • Rejection Affection: Cat Noir continues to pursue Ladybug despite her repeatedly rejecting him because she's in love with another guy...who is his secret identity.
  • Relative Button:
    • Hurting Ladybug in any way. In "Animan", he's ready to tear the akumatized villain to shreds when he thinks he killed her. In "Oni-Chan", he furiously demands a civilian to teleport the titular villain to his location so she can protect Ladybug.
    • Taking advantage of/hurting his loved ones. Adrien is pretty lenient to people hurting him personally, so long as it doesn't harm the people he cares about. As Lila finds out, between getting Nathalie and the Gorilla in trouble with his father, manipulating events to deliberately hurt Kagami, working with multiple villains to kill Ladybug, and framing Marinette to expel her from school out of spite, she pisses Adrien off to the point that he wants nothing to do with her, and threatens to leave their "friendship" for all of her remorseless tactics.
  • Right for the Wrong Reasons:
    • In "Lady Wifi", he makes several flirtatious remarks which (unbeknownst to him) are actually entirely true — if only because he's in a romance story.

      "Without this mask, you wouldn't be able to resist me."
      "You think we might know each other in real life?"

    • In "Dark Cupid", he assumed the unsigned letter he received came from Ladybug because a ladybug landed on it while he read it. It actually came from Marinette, who is course secretly Ladybug.
  • Running on All Fours: He is based on a cat, after all.

    S-Z

  • Save Scumming: As Aspik and Snake Noir, he possessed the ability to rewind time by up to five minutes after a specific point, keeping his memories of what he'd done the other times.
  • Second Super-Identity:
    • In "Desperada", Adrien briefly wields the Snake Miraculous and becomes Aspik (hiding the fact that he's Cat Noir). He eventually gives up and suggests that Luka take his place.
    • In "Kuro Neko", Adrien gives up the Black Cat Miraculous out of feeling neglected... only for Plagg to bring it back to him and convince him to "replace" himself, becoming the polite and professional Cat Walker.
  • Secret Identity Identity: Supplementary material, as well as evidence in the show itself, indicates that Adrien views Cat Noir as his true self. That being said, the case is less severe than certain other examples of this trope; Cat Noir isn't so much a different person from Adrien Agreste, as he is Adrien with less of a verbal filter (manifesting in both positive and negative ways) and less need to live up to Gabriel's crushing expectations. The difference comes down more to Adrien's self-confidence issues than being Lost in Character.
  • Secret-Keeper:
    • As Adrien, he is the one who suggests Luka wield the Snake Miraculous and is aware of his identity as Viperion. Nino also outs himself as Carapace and Alya as Rena Rouge to him in a jealous rage after mistakenly concluding that she's cheating on him with Cat Noir. He has to play dumb about the latter as Cat Noir, though.
    • As Cat Noir, he is aware of Marinette's identity as Multimouse (as a ploy on her part to prevent him from finding out she's also Ladybug). He is also aware of Max's identity as Pegasus and Rose's identity as Pigella (due to being present when Ladybug presents them their Miraculouses), and logically he should also be aware that Ryuko is Kagami (since Ryuko came out of the place where Kagami was trapped, and called the fight with Ikari Gozen to be "between a daughter and a mother"). Later, "Ephemeral" has Viperion detransform in front of his Cat Noir identity, meaning both identities know the truth about him.
  • Sexy Cat Person: A cat-themed hero who is hot enough to be a male model and very flirtatious.
  • Sheltered Aristocrat: Adrien was born into a wealthy family, but due to his father's overprotectiveness, Adrien wasn't allowed to go to public school until recently.
  • Shipper on Deck:
    • Adrien was all for helping Nino get together with Marinette.
    • In "Félix", Adrien mistakenly believes that his father and Nathalie are romantically involved, and he's more than okay with it, since he already considers her part of the family.
  • Single-Target Sexuality: Zigzagged. He never seriously considered anyone who wasn't Ladybug until Kagami. But he start again to target Ladybug right after breaking-up with Kagami.
  • Skewed Priorities: During "Dark Cupid", he's more focused on confessing to Ladybug than fighting the villain.
    • In "Oblivio", he can be seen during the fight with the titular akuma laying behind Ladybug, flirting and insisting they are a couple, instead of helping her fight the battle.
  • Small Steps Hero: Adrien is the type of person who tries to do immediate good without thinking of future consequences.
    • Choosing to help Master Fu in "Origins Part 1" nearly costs him his chance to go to school.
    • Many times Cat Noir chose protecting the civilians instead of fighting the akuma, which resulted in him losing his weapon or getting captured. However considering what would have happened if he hadn't, this is a good thing.
  • Spin to Deflect Stuff: Cat Noir's weapon of choice is a retractable staff, so of course he does a lot of spinning with it to deflect attacks coming from the Villain of the Week.
  • Stating the Simple Solution: In contrast to Marinette's Complexity Addiction, Adrien will generally take simpler approaches, as himself or as Cat Noir. He's generally more thoughtful as himself, though. By simple logic, he's correctly deduced Marinette is Ladybug at least twice, before she came up with some zany scheme to mislead him.
  • Stepford Smiler: Adrien is affable on the surface, but feels very restricted in his everyday life. Therefore when he's Cat Noir, he can freely do and say what he wants since his Dad can't hassle him.
  • Strong Family Resemblance: According to pictures shown in "Simon Says," Adrien is the spitting image of his mother, which is proven when a picture of the two together is seen. The less noticeable traits he inherited from his father are skin complexion and eye shape.
  • Sugar-and-Ice Personality: Due to his strict upbringing, Adrien is obedient, serious, and slightly reserved. He's still a sweet person and shows a more relaxed side to those he's close to. His "sugar" side becomes more apparent as Cat Noir — becoming an energetic, cocky Casanova Wannabe with a habit of making terrible puns.
  • Super Senses: His cat ears enhance his hearing, enabling him to detect enemies from afar.
  • Taking the Bullet: Has taken five akuma curses meant for Ladybug: from Timebreaker, Dark Cupid, Reflekta (after he had already been hit), Zombizou, and Chameleon.
  • Tareme Eyes: Much like Marinette, they represent his innocent and Nice Guy personality.
  • Teen Idol: He's a popular model.
  • Telescoping Staff: His primary weapon is a staff which can extend to seemingly any length.
  • Time Loop Fatigue: He finds himself Save Scumming as Aspik constantly due to Ladybug repeatedly getting defeated by Desperada, forcing him to reset the timeline. By the time his rewinds reach the five digits, he decides to give up and let Ladybug choose someone else to wield the Snake Miraculous.
  • Time Rewind Mechanic: As Aspik, he had the ability "Second Chance", allowing him to rewind time by up to five minutes to the point where he invoked the power, and keep his memories in the process.
  • Throw the Dog a Bone: As Adrien, he has a less than warm domestic life, and as Cat Noir, he fails to woo the girl of his dreams AND he's a notorious butt-monkey. But some episodes give him a break, like having bonding time with his father and friends or managing to kiss Ladybug (even if he doesn't remember both times that happened). Add to that the fact he has at least two episodes per season that give more focus to him than to the title heroine.
  • Touch of Death: His Cataclysm power would be this if used against a living target. Fortunately for the show's rating, he doesn't use his power in that way, at least while in his right mind.
  • Trademark Favorite Food: Both Marinette and Chloé note that he likes passionfruit.
  • Transformation Trinket: Cat Noir's ring.
  • Tranquil Fury: In "Ladybug", he calmly talks with Lila about her getting Marinette expelled from school and he gives an ultimatum: make up a new lie to get Marinette back in school, or he cuts her off for good. Even he calling her a "friend" sounds more as a threat!
  • Troubled, but Cute: Downplayed. While Adrien is a Pretty Boy Chick Magnet with a genuine kind heart, he also a troubling relationship with his father, a Missing Mom (with the implication he was closer to her), self-esteem issues, and problems in regards to his relationship with Ladybug.
  • Uncanny Family Resemblance: He and his cousin Félix look almost exactly alike, aside from their hairstyles and outfits. Félix, simply by changing his clothes and hair, manages to look exactly like Adrien.
  • Undying Loyalty: He's sacrificed himself for Ladybug several times so she wouldn't get hit.
  • The Unfavorite: Cat Noir was (and still is) out of the loop on so many secrets by Master Fu, since the Guardian clearly favors Ladybug. Even going so far as to take Plagg without warning or explanation in Feast. This gets even worse in season 4, as Adrien starts to question his role on the team and Ladybug's trust in him after she becomes the new Guardian and now keeps even more secrets from him. It doesn't help that in "Rocketear", Nino reveals that he, Carapace, and Alya, Rena Rouge, know each other's identities. Prompting Adrien to dejectedly mumble that the "identities must remain a secret" rule apparently applies only to him.
  • Unwitting Instigator of Doom:
    • His decision to run away from home is the indirect cause of Santa Claus being akumatized during the Christmas Episode, as it leads Ladybug to assume the helpful Santa has kidnapped him.
    • In "Timetagger", a villain named "Monsieur Rat" is named as a member of Ladybug and Cat Noir's future Rogues Gallery. At the end of the episode, after defeating Mr. Pigeon for the umpteenth time, Cat suggests that Mr. Ramier find a different animal to obsess over so that he doesn't get akumatized so often. After he leaves, Ramier spots a rat...
  • Uptown Guy: Downplayed. While Adrien may have been born into a significantly wealthier family, Marinette isn't poor whatsoever, just from a middle-class family.
  • Weapon of Choice: His staff.
  • "Well Done, Son!" Guy: In one of his webisodes, Adrien admits that he doesn't particularly enjoy modelling, but does it because he wants to make his father happy. In "Wishmaker", he admits he doesn't actually know what his own desires are, or if he even has any to begin with. This eats at him to the point that he deliberately lets himself get hit by Wishmaker so he can find out. He just turns back into Adrien and declares that his greatest desire is to be whatever his parents want him to be.
  • What the Hell, Hero?:
    • In "The Bubbler", he decides to wait on stopping the titled villain because he can finally have a birthday party with his friends. But after seeing the dejected looks on his friends' faces from being forced to have fun by the Bubbler and seeing Ladybug come to stop the said villain, Adrien admonishes himself for being so foolish before transforming as Cat Noir.
    • In "Copycat", Plagg calls out Adrien for his jealousy of Théo for liking Ladybug, going so far as to lie about the nature of their relationship. Which Adrien acknowledges (at least to himself).
  • White Sheep: As of season three, every member of the Agreste family aside from Adrien and possibly his mother has been malicious - Gabriel is secretly Hawk Moth, and Amelie and Félix are both jerkasses and thieves.
  • The Worf Effect: Tends to get flung around, subjected to Mind Control, or otherwise incapacitated a lot due to his tendency to jump into battle without having a plan first. As Adrien, he's constantly defeated by Kagami on fencing, despite their moderately similar abilities, when he's depressed or distracted.
  • Would Hit a Girl: He has no qualms over attacking females who have been akumatized. The fact that akumatized people seem to be more of their possessing butterfly-demon than the original person most of the time might have something to do with it.
