Animaestro is an akumatized villain from Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir and the akumatized form of Thomas Astruc. He is really the director of the animated movie called "Ladybug and Cat Noir", Thomas Astruc, who felt humiliated because nobody knew him and was akumatized after Chloe and a reluctant Marinette attempted to foil Kagami from getting any closer to Adrien.
Appearance[]
After he was akumatized, he appears as a silhouette of himself but semi-transparent with pencil-scribbles filling out his body. He also wears a Ladybug mask.
Personality[]
As Animaestro, he is determined to show everyone what animation is capable of.
Powers and Abilities[]
He is able to shapeshift into whatever animated 2D creature he can imagine, so he has practically unlimited abilities if he can think of it. But he can only move as long as he is watched by at least one person. If no one looks at him, he freezes and he will be stuck in place until someone looks at him.
Quotes[]
“ | So you really think a director does nothing? Let me show you exactly what I'm capable of. | „ |
