Miraculous Ladybug Season 6 Episode 8 The Ruler Episode Title: The Ruler Episode Description: Nathaniel illustrates a romance fantasy comic written by Marc, but he doubts it will catch on, especially since his architect mother Shirel wants him to take up more "serious" arts like architecture. Despite encouragement from Marinette (who is sick with the common cold) and her friends, Shirel finds out about his comic and forces him to quit and pull him out of school. Shirel is akumatized into "The Ruler", a Templar knight-themed villain whose triangle ruler can brand people and force them to do exactly as she says. With help from Caprikid, Ladybug and Cat Noir (who get brainwashed) defeat the villain. Ladybug helps Shirel see the error of her ways. Later, Nathaniel and Marc reveal themselves as Caprikid and Rooster Bold to each other.
