Canon
Fandom
Lila is controversial in Miraculous Ladybug fandom.
Lila is a queen of Mary Sues. No, Lila is THE queen of Mary Sues. Her mere existence lowers the IQ of EVERYONE around her excpet the main characters. Max, a super genius, instantly believed that Lila saved his life from a ball of crunched up paper because Lila claimed the sharp edges could have cut his eyes. Max wears glasses! Alya, a character who is supposed to be a good journalist, is utterly incapable of believing that Lila is a liar even when she has all the facts to come to that conclusion (ex: in Lila's introduction episode, she claims to be Ladybug's best friend. Marinette, who is Ladybug, didn't know who Lila was. Alya now knows that Marinette is Ladybug. This information has never been referenced except from before Alya knew Marinette's identity). And worst of all, Lila has never truly lost, even when it seems like she lost she's either able to cut her loses or she's one step ahead of everone else!howhow36, 2023

Lila Rossi is a flagrant, vicious, unrepentant liar and a bully. From the very first episode that she appears in, it’s clear the only purpose of her lying is to make herself look better to get people to like her, and so that she could possess Adrien Agreste.stellarlex, 2019
in 2019 we love lila rossi and recognize that she is a woefully neglected child being manipulated and groomed by a sociopath and doesn’t deserve any of the shit the fandom gives herlahiffed, 2019
People be like “oh if you don’t like Lila you’re toxic she’s literally a child dealing with her own issues” and like yeah she is a child dealing with her own issues but growing up I also had a really bad bully that bullied and isolated me in the exact same way that she does with Marinette. Looking back I know that she probably has her own issues too. But it doesn’t change that that girl made my life horrible for years and ruined my self esteem in ways that I’m still trying to fix.decentlysane, 2019
You do not have to like Lila. Hell, I even understand if you have personal reasons for not liking her. But the disrespect of her character is what really gets me. It isn’t even that people have unfavorable opinions of her. I’ve seen her be depicted as mindlessly cruel and evil in fanfiction to the point where it seems her sole motivation is to ruin the lives of our main characters. If that isn’t already bad enough, people in this fandom also like to call this 14/15 year old girl a bitch and a whole other slew of insults that are frankly undeserved.breeliss, 2017
