Chris Patton would make a good Adrien.

I agree. He's pretty good at playing your snarky, serious male leads, and Adrien definitely falls under that archetype. Not only that, but if you listen to his performances as--for example--Graham Spector from Baccano, or Satou Tatsuhiro from welcome to the NHK, you'll note that he's really good at playing characters who are manic, hammy, or kind of neurotic. From what we've seen of him, I'd say Chat Noir would fall somewhere within that spectrum. However, Patton has said that he's no longer particularly interested in voice acting for animation, so I doubt he'd voice Adrien even if he were asked.

N'aw, that's a shame. Also, guys... I found proof that we were never meant to see the PV. I dug up the link for Zagtoon's post of the PV, and thought that, just for fun, I'd throw it in the wayback machine. As I expected, the video was a black box that had "Sorry, the Wayback Machine does not have this video archived." plastered on it, BUT, the uploader and description came up. "Published on Aug 26, 2012 by Zagtoon OAV Ladybug OAV - Miraculous OAV - Internal use only" For those who don't know, I looked up a definition of "Internal use only". "A way to identify a document or email that should not be sent outside of the firm, unless of course you are a disgruntled employee seeking a spectacular exit from your current job." Source:http://www.cheesycorporatelingo.com/dictionary/internal-use-only/ And, OAV [Original animation video] in theory means the anime was meant to be a direct to video series, or even ONLY a movie. Assumption drawn from: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Original_animated_videoUnless I'm just an idiot and OAV was just directed at the PV itself and not the series.

Oh! I almost forgot, the French version of the AB international page has a slightly different synopsis, google translate ahoy!: Paris today. Marinette and Adrien are two schoolchildren like no other. They have been chosen to save Paris! Their mission: Stop the Butterfly, a super villain who wreaks havoc in the capital. When they save Paris, they become superheroes: Marinette becomes Ladybug, Adrien becomes Chat Noir. Black Cat and Ladybug but do not know the true identity of the other. Marinette did not know that behind the Black Cat costume, hides Adrien, the boy she loves in secret. Neither did he

Still kinda happy that the video leaked somehow. Where would've been without knowing about ladybug. And yeah google translate comes in handy sometimes xD.

Aw yeah Should there be a new thread for article spam? This thread doesn't seem to be about the trailer anymore...

Yeah, probably. I think I've gotten a bit carried away with the article spam the pash few days.
On the subject of the trailer, I couldn't help but notice, in the clip where Marinette is looking at her earrings, that you can see her weird red antennae-like hair things in the corners of the screen. So, I guess she has those all the time, not just as Ladybug, and I kind of find that funny. With Adrien, I can believe his disguise just a little bit: his mask covers half his face, his hairstyle changes, and his personality does a complete 180. But poor Marinette gets a mask even tinier than the one in the OAV, and a really distinctive hairstyle that she keeps all the time. XD I can see it now: "Gee, I wonder who Ladybug is? Surely it is not that close friend of mine with the exact same vaguely insectoid hairstyle." "Nope, that is entirely beyond the realm of possibility!"
It's probably kind of hypocritical for a fan of the magical girl genre to harp on paltry disguises, especially when this show has the decency to give them masks. But when one character looks different enough that you can believe their disguise, it kind of sticks out when the other character has two neon signs attached to their adorable pigtails proclaiming "I'm Ladybug!"

Combination of Ladybug's good luck of being able to keep her secret identity secret and Chat Noir's bad luck unable to recognize her?
That is funny though.

I can totally see that happening in a scene. After reflecting on meeting ladybug, finding her quite similair looking to Marinette, he ends up laughing about it. Because how could she possibly be the splendid Ladybug, nonsense. Gosh, that'd be great xD. Anyways going back on another thing, i was wondering how the sprites will look in cgi form, all 3d and stuff. Will they differ from their appearance in the pv?

Oh God, the wacky hijinks between those two will be hilarious. To be honest, I'm pretty curious about how everyone sans Marinette will look in CGI. They changed her design quite a bit from the pv, so it makes me wonder how everyone else will look. I'm actually kind of hoping they redesign Marinette's sprite because it kind of looks like an indistinct red blob-fetus, and not much like a ladybug. Oh, this just occurred to me as I was typing. You know how when Ladybug is zipping around the city, being all awesome and stuff, she's usually in some variant of this pose: I think it's supposed to look like a ladybug in flight, which is adorable: Do you guys see this too, or am I just crazy?
