In the build-up to the upcoming Miraculous anime, the spin-off has revealed that the series will start by employing the animation style of the original series. While most of the show will obviously adopt a more traditional style that has become popular in Japan, Ladybug will be featured in the style that helped make the main story such a hit. From the trailer, it’s clear that the new animation style is using a combination of traditional 2-D animation and computer-generated animation, so it will be interesting to see how the battles and set pieces are presented. Luckily, fans of both Cat Noir and Ladybug won’t be waiting long for this new anime series as it’s set to hit the Disney Channel on November 29th next month.
