Kimdine is the het ship between Lê Chiến Kim and Ondine from the Miraculous Ladybug fandom.

Canon[]

Both Kim and Ondine are good friends who feel comfortable with each other and enjoy hanging out together at the swimming pool as they have classes together. Sometimes they only go there to just swim for fun, where they play their self made game that has them sharing each others "Secrets", through written down notes they place in a capsule built bracelet from Ondine; that keeps their notes safe and dry as they take turns in retrieving it from the pool.

Season Two[]

On the episode “Syren”, there’s a scene where Ladybug, Chat Noir and Rena Rouge ran over the roof of the swimming pool building. Ondine and Kim saw them and then she asked him if he thinks they would be okay, which he replies they will and starts complimenting them for having secret identities, giving Ondine an advantage to start playing their secret game. She uses their game as away to leave Kim hints about her romantic feelings for him, but Kim's crush on Chloé and simply seeing Ondine as a friend leaves him oblivious to them, until she decides to finally tell Kim in a much clear message. Just as Kim was about to read her retrieved note, however, he notices the time and dashes off; but not before he tells Ondine that he had asked Chloé to go to the movies with him. Feeling heartbroken over Kim not understanding her true feelings for him, Hawk Moth akumatizes Ondine into Syren.

While Syren's actions had her flooding Paris and dragging Kim back to her underwater lair, as the pool is where she has tried to pour her heart out to him many times, it allowed Kim to not only realize that the mermaid-themed villain is actually Ondine, when she shows Kim her bracelet, it also helped him to finally see that he is the guy she mentions in her "Secret" notes. Being happy about Kim's realization, Syren tells Kim that she can turn him into a merman with a kiss, and just as they were about to Kim asks her if the down side of the transformation would involve him not never seeing Mecha Monkey vs. Cyber Sharks 3, leaving Syren confused. Shortly after Syren was de-akumatizing back into Ondine, Kim askes her if she wants to play a game of Secrets. Ondine opens the bracelet and reads the note, to which delights her as Kim used their game as away to ask Ondine if she wants to go to the movies with him; Kim's actions also imply that he may have started to return those feelings.

Season Three[]

In the "Miracle Queen” episode, Kim and Ondine were playing their special game at the pool where Kim had retrieved Ondine's secret from the water like a seal when he brought it back to her, the two of them were almost about to kiss each other, but after they could they get stung by Miracle Queen's bees and get placed under her mind control; Miracle Queen asked for every miraculous holder, and since Kim is the Monkey-themed superhero King Monkey, he left Ondine's side so he could serve his queen. After Ladybug and Cat Noire defeated Miracle Queen the miraculous ladybugs brought Kim back to the pool and freed everyone from Miracle Queen's control. Once the two realized that they were saved by the main duo and the danger has past, they held hands and placed their cheeks against each others. In which makes them look like lovers.

Season Five[]

Ondine is at the pool with Kim when Adrien and Marinette arrive for their date. She sees the latter have a panic attack, and when Kim asks what sort of prank Adrien pulled on Marinette to get that reaction, she questions Kim. Kim tells his story about pranking Marinette with live spiders in the 8th grade, and Ondine is horrified. She tells Kim that something like that isn't funny, but Kim brushes it off as Ondine not understanding his sense of humour. As he swims away from her and Adrien, he is akumatized into Dark Humor. He shoots Ondine with one of his arrows, causing her to go out to the park fountain and start hitting childrens' paper boats with a pool noodle.

When Kim is freed by Ladybug, her returns to the pool with Ondine, Marinette, and Adrien. He says he doesn't remember his time as Dark Humor, but he worries about what he may have done while he is akumatized. Ondine points out that it's not what he did as a villain that's the problem, but the cruel things he has done when he's not akumatized. Kim agrees, and apologized to Marinette for their past. She accepts his apology, and Ondine smiles. She says, "That's the boy I feel in love with!" before kissing Kim on the cheek. The two are seen sitting together on the episode's end card.

Fanon[]

Soon after "Syren" aired, the two were shipped by fans. As many Miraculous Ladybug fans prefer Kim to be shipped with someone who truly cares about him (as Ondine finds Kim funny and enjoys his company), rather than with a girl (A.K.A. Chloé Bourgeois) who rejects his feelings and had gotten him akumatized. Most fans also looked forward to how Kim would keep returning Ondine's feelings and hoped for more interactions in future seasons, since the two appear to be very much closer with one another in the season three finally. Even some fans found really sweet how Kim wasn’t mad at her at all after knowing she got akumatized, he was rather happy since he could be swimming all the time, but also felt guilty since he noticed she got akumatized thanks to him not realizing that she has a crush on him.

Both of them haven’t had many interactions, but they get along well and both are comfortable around each other. Some fans found it related to Adrienette, since Kim was oblivious to her crush on him even though she sent her obvious hints and messages (as Adrien is completely oblivious to Marinettes’s crush on him too even though Marinette always has obvious expressions), but after Kim learned her feelings towards him he invites her to the movies with him, implying that he may return those feelings at the end of the episode, he asks her to go to the movies with him, much to her and the fans’ joy. There have even been a few fans who have the het ship rival with the slash ship, Kimax.
