Outside the ball, Kagami, Tomoe and Gabriel were greeted by "Adrien" (really Félix in disguise), who apologized for being late and tried to kiss her hand only to stop in shock when noticing her ring. At the Dance, Kagami and Félix are seated waiting for their entrance as the ball's King and Queen, and she commented on him being late as it made their parents upset but added that it was too much trying to kiss her hand in front of them as he was in love with Marinette. Upon, being asked if she was jealous by Félix she replied a little and commented back as he became the way she wanted him to be with her but quelled her feelings for her friendship with Marinette which Félix called admirable.

However her joy turned into horror when Félix revealed himself and used the Peacock Miraculous to transform into Argos and with his sentimonster Red Moon, disappeared everyone at the ball, including her mother, and took Marinette hostage much to her heartbreak.
Meeting Argos in the now empty streets Kagami was furious at him calling him a monster for what he did but Argos proved not everyone disappeared despite him restoring Adrien and explaining his intentions to free them from their controlling parents and finally be happy. They understood what Argos really brought wasn't freedom but loneliness she attacked him with her bokken leaving him confused until she told him that either couldn't be happy without those they loved. She followed Argos to the dumpster where he hid Marinette and found it empty, then her and Adrien's anger rose when Argos was unable to restore her, much to his horror. With that being it they demanded him to restore everyone else, which Argos apologetically did, and yet she nor Adrien couldn't see Marinette anywhere demanding to know what he did with her but seeing her safe she and Adrien embraced her. And the next day, Kagami enjoyed ice cream with them and seeing the progress they made she decided to talk to her mother about her feelings.
In "Pretension", at the school, Kagami greets Marinette and Adrien, with the former stating she's tired of not being able to date Adrien as freely she wants and decides it confront Gabriel about it, which inspired Kagami to do the same with her mother when she came to pick her up, and Kagami asked her mother to stop seeing her and Adrien as a couple as they weren't in love anymore and Marinette was her friend, to which Tomoe criticized her daughter for letting her emotions control her, but soon were cut short by the appearance of Argos, who stopped the car and took Kagami away to the Eiffel Tower, where she demanded him to let her go and tried to attack him, only to be stopped by Argos detransforming and telling her he's not her enemy and he only wanted to talk to her as he felt a kinship with her since the dance and knew her as he was following her, much to her disbelief as he stalked and kidnapped her only to know her and remarked that Félix didn't have social skills and that he couldn't go around kidnapping people, to which Félix apologized and said he only wanted to protect her from her mother, which surprised Kagami. However they were soon found by Matagi Gozen and Ladybug and Cat Noir, but Félix stated he would save Kagami and transformed and took her away again, and hidden in an alleway, Kagami asked Argos to leave her behind to calm her mother and stop her from attacking him, but Argos gently told her he wanted was to free her from her mother, to which Kagami replied she didn't need his help to become free as she could free herself and advised him to escape only to be confronted by her akumatized mother who tried to paralyze her with her arrows and Argos jumped to protect her and gets both of them out of there, and while fleeing Kagami remarked that her mother said she wanted to protect her and yet tried to attack her, to which Argos replied that she never met his father whom was worse than Tomoe, and in the safety of a rooftop, Kagami watched as Argos broke his fan and spread its feathers everywhere and questioned about it and he replied that his priority was her safety. And the two hid in the sewers, where Argos detransformed and Kagami was confused as why he didn't create a sentimonster to help them, and Félix asked her to not call them "monsters" as he refused to create another sentibeing to use, control and destroy it and revealed his empathy to them as one when bringing a new life has a responsibility to love them and showing them the meaning of their existence and moved by this, Kagami asked if he was talking about himself too, but Félix replied he was talking about both of them, but they where cut short by Ladybug and Cat Noir's arrival to rescue Kagami and demanding Félix to hand over the Peacock Miraculous, but Kagami jumped at his defense telling the heroes that she isn't his prisoner and that Félix wasn't their enemy and that he didn't know how to express himself like her, which surprised Félix and the heroes as well, but then Matagi Gozen arrived and Ladybug asked Kagami to use her lucky charm object to help deakumatize her mother and also she asked Félix to trust the heroes and agreeing, he transformed and fleed the scene. After deakumatizing Tomoe, she told Kagami she wasn't worthy to wear their family ring and asked it back from her, to which Kagami sadly complied. Later, she secretly met with Félix in a movie theater where he surprised her by giving her the real ring and told her that her mother had a fake one and that she was the last of the Tsurugis and was now free to create her rules, which Kagami appreciated and held his hand.
In "Revelation", she replaced Lila as the new female avatar for the Alliance rings and is introduced as being a couple with Adrien, despite being against it.
In "Representation", Kagami, along with Adrien, is sent to London and the two are presented to the British media as the perfect couple in love with each other (via their avatars) by their parents. Disgusted with the lies, she's ready to throw the remote at the television when Félix appeared at her hotel balcony. It's revealed the two are in a secret relationship but knowing her mother and Gabriel Agreste will never allow them to be together, need Ladybug's help. The two head back to Paris to ask for Marinette's help (Kagami discovered she is Ladybug after overhearing her and Alya in "Perfection" on the Liberty), seeing this as her only opportunity to be free from her mother. With Félix's help, the two tell Marinette the truth about Gabriel being Monarch, the origins of the Graham de Vanily, Agreste, and Fathom families and why Félix betrayed her. They urge her to stop the supervillain for everyone to have an happy ending since she was the only one who could. She and Félix return to London, confident that Marinette will stop him and they kiss. Unfortunately, due to her escape, she's locked up in a white cell.
In "Conformation", still in her cell, Kagami is annoyed that her image is not just being used in the ads and commercials with Adrien but also used in Monarch's final plan with her mother to take Ladybug and Cat Noir's Miraculouses.
In "Re-creation", after Monarch's defeat, Kagami attended Adrien's pool party, where she reunited with her boyfriend and she sketches him. Sometime after Marinette restored all the stolen Miraculouses to their original forms and permanently returned them to their holders, Kagami is given back the Dragon Miraculous permanently and reunites with Longg and the team set off for their next adventure to protect Paris from the New villainous Butterfly Miraculous holder.
