Designed for digital-first audiences with a sweet spot of kids ages 5-11, Miraculous Chibi will be delivering in Q4. The first batch of episodes are anticipated to launch Q4 2025 on the Miraculous YouTube channel, with additional episodes to roll out through 2026. Disney Branded Television has acquired the series to debut on its platforms in 2026. France’s TFI has also acquired the series for a 2026 release.
Originally introduced through 10 x 90-second teaser episodes, Miraculous Chibi has already proven a smash hit—amassing over 650 million views on YouTube and over 930,000 subscribers on the dedicated channel. The new Miraculous™ Chibi series brings Ladybug, Cat Noir, and friends, into a dynamic, action-packed world filled with cute comedic adventure and misguided missions, capturing the magic of Miraculous™ in a whole new way!
Each episode spotlights one of our beloved heroes, obsessively following a crazy goal as they navigate hilarious obstacles in the heart of beautiful Parisian locations—from Marinette’s family bakery, along the Champs-Elysee, to the top of the Eiffel Tower—with expressive animation, emoji-style effects, and a whirlwind of comedic chaos. Whether its Cat Noir’s overconfidence gone wrong, Marinette’s adorably awkward disasters, or a self-driving car with a mind of its own, each Chibi short is designed to delight—one comedic misadventure at a time.
Andy Yeatman, CEO, Miraculous Corp and Global Operations, said:
“Miraculous Chibi is a celebration of everything fans love about the brand, distilled into three-minute bursts of laughter, heart, and classic cartoon fun. With its visually engaging storytelling, lovable characters, and universal humor, the Miraculous Chibi series is perfect for all, where big fun comes in small packages!”
Heath Kenny, Chief Content Officer, Miraculous Corp, added:
“In the classic spirit of Miraculous these comic tales of missed connections, miscommunication, and persistent pursuit are dialed up to their maximum fun in a whirlwind of cute comedic mishaps. It’s designed to be accessible, hilarious, and universally relatable, whether you’ve followed Ladybug and Cat Noir for years or are discovering them for the first time.”
