Marcaniel

Marcaniel is the slash ship between Marc Anciel and Nathaniel Kurtzberg from the Miraculous Ladybug fandom.

Canon
Marc often looks at Nathaniel's drawings for inspiration with his writing. Marinette suggests that he and Nathaniel work together on a comic book. In fear of Nathaniel's reaction to his story, Marc takes Marinette's advice of showing him the book without telling him who wrote it. Nathaniel angrily denies Marc's offer of making a comic book together, thinking he's playing a joke on him. Marc becomes so upset that he is akumatized by Hawk Moth into Reverser. After he is de-akumatized and their misunderstanding is cleared up, the two end up making a comic book together.

They are frequently seen together in episodes such as "Frozer" and "Mayura". From the way Marc acts around Nathaniel and talks about him, it can be inferred that he has feelings for him. This was later confirmed by Feri González, who runs the official Miraculous Ladybug Mexico Twitter account.

In recent episodes they are seen sitting with each other and in "Party Crasher", both kiss Adrien on the cheek. While the season three finale, Nathanial and Marc are seen sitting next to each other, among the other couples, in "Miracle Queen".

Season 2
Frightningale
 * The two are seen dancing together in a scene from Clara Nightingale's music video, with both of them wearing Ladybug masks.

Fanon
Soon after "Reverser" aired, the two were shipped by fans. Most looked to how the two worked with each other and hoped for more interactions in season 3. The two have had several on-screen interactions, which further fueled fans to ship them. It was also thought for a while that Nathaniel would obtain the Peacock Miraculous while Marc would be intrusted with the Goat Miraculous, and that they would join the main superhero team and work together.
