‘Miraculous Ladybug’ Season 7 Episode 5 Release Date, Time, Where to Watch and Preview

The next chapter of ‘Miraculous Ladybug’ is close, with the episode titled “Marinette Dupain-Cheng” listed to air on November 20 in the United States on Disney Channel. French viewers follow shortly after, since the episode is dated November 22 in that market. The installment arrives as part of a broad international rollout that began on October 30 across major markets.

Ahead of the broadcast, viewers have plenty of practical questions about this ‘Miraculous Ladybug’ episode, from timing to streaming access to the story itself. This guide gathers the confirmed details from current listings. One small curiosity is that, according to a fan wiki, the title makes it only the second episode named after a civilian, following “Noe”.

Release Date for the New Episode

In the United States, Rotten Tomatoes lists the episode as airing November 20 on Disney Channel. Wikipedia’s episode list matches that date for the American premiere, which gives the schedule a solid footing across more than one source.

The French premiere comes two days later. Series listings for TF1 place the episode on November 22, and The Movie Database gives the runtime as 22 minutes. After that, the following episode, “Glaciator Extreme,” is set for November 29 on TF1.

The new season is already well underway. The sixth season ran from March 2025 to October 2026, and the seventh season premiered on October 30 via Globoplay in Brazil. The previous episode, “Manageman,” reached French audiences on November 15, so the new installment continues a steady weekly cadence.

Air Time and Broadcast Schedule

A confirmed American broadcast time has not appeared in the listings available so far. The Miraculous wiki’s guide to US broadcasts shows the date for Disney Channel but marks the time as to be announced. Viewers in the United States should check their local Disney Channel schedule closer to the date.

For France, there is a useful reference point from the previous episode. “Manageman” aired during the TFOU morning block on TF1 at 8:35 AM CET. The French schedule has placed episodes on Sundays, including November 1, 8, 15 and 22, which suggests a consistent weekend slot.

Brazil has generally moved ahead of the other markets. Episodes reached Globoplay on November 6 and November 13 before the American dates, so Brazilian audiences have typically received each installment early.

Where to Watch in Different Regions

For American viewers, the main destination is television. Rotten Tomatoes lists Disney Channel as the network for the episode, and the international rollout also includes Disney+. The fan wiki likewise lists Disney Channel and Disney+ among the broadcasters.

Streaming options depend heavily on territory. JustWatch’s India listing shows the season streaming on Netflix, while its UK page shows Netflix, Netflix with ads and a purchase option on Amazon Video. Readers in other regions should check a local streaming guide before the premiere.

The distribution plan spans several broadcasters. Miraculous Corp is rolling out the season across Disney+, Globo and TF1. A company executive described the rollout as a reflection of the strength of longstanding broadcast partnerships.

Preview of the Story and Creative Team

Story details are still thin, but one listing offers a synopsis. A student named Marc is akumatized into Reverser and becomes convinced that Marinette and Nathaniel made a fool of him. He sets out for revenge, and Ladybug and Cat Noir must work out how to stop him.

Behind the camera, the episode has a familiar creative core. Thomas Astruc and Wilfried Pain are credited as directors, with Astruc and Sébastien Thibaudeau credited as writers. The episode carries a TV-Y7 rating, so it remains aimed at younger viewers.

The surrounding episodes give useful context for where the story stands. The early episodes of the season upend Marinette’s personal life and introduce new allies she can speak to more openly than ever. In “Manageman,” Marinette remembers the first time she saw Adrien again after their breakup, which makes an episode named for Marinette herself feel like a natural next step. Whether it turns the spotlight fully on her civilian life, and whether Reverser’s grudge against Marinette and Nathaniel changes how she handles her friendships, is something readers can weigh in on in the comments.
