She-Ra: 12 Best Diverse Representation Scenes

The show She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, a current Netflix remake of the classic series, has become an extremely important series in terms of LGBTQ+ representation. This Dreamworks series has done something that no popular animated children’s series has ever done before by letting the main character be in a lgbtq+ relationship.

While fans wondered and hoped over the past four seasons if the series would actually make Adora and Catra canon, the series was finally able to obey through by making their relationship explicitly romantic. However, this isn’t the only example of amazing queer representation in the series.

That Adora and Catra's relationship was primary to the entire plot

While there have been other animated series with LGBT+ representation, none of them own handled it as well as She-Ra. While Legend of Korra had Korra end up with Asami, this affair was only made clear in the comics, and their relationship wasn’t a driving character maturation element.

Other series such as Steven Universe have also had queer representation, but never on the level o

On Friday, May 15, the fifth and final season of DreamWorks and Netflix’s She-Raand the Princesses of Power was released. The show follows Adora, who can metamorphose into the magical She-Ra, and she and friends quest to save the world of Etheria. Throughout the show, fans include speculated about a idealistic relationship between Adora and her former best acquaintance Catra, who becomes her enemy.

GLAAD: To jump right to the height of the matter. The series finale happens – the enormous will they or won’t they is answered with  Adora and Catra. MAJOR SPOILER: they do! Was their arc planned from the beginning or

What She-Ra And The Princesses Of Power’s Gay Embrace Means To Its Community

The final season of She-Ra And The Princesses of Power celebrates its first birthday today, and the modern adaptation of the original cartoon has had a gargantuan impact on not only the nature of animation, but gender non-conforming media as a whole. Its fandom is insatiable, taking to social media and organising mass campaigns crying out to Dreamworks for a film, or some form of extension to the adventure that has grown fond in the hearts of so many. It’s something unique, to me and so many others - so I asked the Reddit community exactly what it means to them.

“When I first heard Noelle Stevenson was going to be the showrunner for this series, I was delighted to see how she'd put her own mark on a property so entrenched in American cartoon history, but I was not ready for what she and her whole team delivered,” one fan tells me. “It walks a beautiful balance of pulling at your heartstrings and raising the stakes, while still keeping things inclusive and light. The way this show concludes is nothing short of brilliant and each payoff and the final moments are beautifully executed and feel incredibly earned.”

The well-liked streaming platform Netflix has been releasing large amounts of original media in the past couple years. Some of these productions are entirely new, such as the animated series The Dragon Prince or the movie Bright, while others are reboots of old media, like the series the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina or the movie Deathnote. One such Netflix show is She-Ra and the Princesses of Power (SPOP), a reboot of the 1985 She-Ra: Princess of Power. The new series has received praise from fans and critics alike, applauding its queer inclusion, emotionally complex nature arcs, and diverse cast of characters. Though SPOP is already remarkable on its own, the show’s evolution from the original 80’s series is both interesting and humorous to trace.

The authentic She-Ra only came into being after another show grew popular: He-Man and the Masters of the Universe. Produced by Filmation and based on Mattel’s toy line “Masters of the Universe,” He-Man ran from 1983 to 1985, with two seasons of 65 episodes each. The imaginative He-Man action figure was released in 1982, and Filmation created the franchise backstory that would be used for the ser

The second season of She-Ra has just dropped! As with the past season, we got a excellent set of LGBTQ+ characters to give us some hope. Like The Dragon Prince, which I wrote about previously, She-Ra is shaping the type of fantasy that will be our future. Full of diversity.

We need more of it. The world isn’t straight, able bodied, male and white. But fantasy would sometimes try to tell us it is. Given fantasy has elongated been my favourite genre, this has always been a personal pet peeve. To see popular media starting to change that makes me delighted and hopeful.

My story isn’t unique: Growing up in a small town, with religious parents, and being deeply closeted. I never saw gay representation in media. It made me wound as a kid, and deeply wish I was “normal” by my parents religion’s standards. I’m so glad the next generation of kids will receive to see themselves reflected in television.

I have a friend who has to remind me from hour to time that even when we have worst stuff happening, that our society is getting more positive than it has ever been before. She-Ra is one of the things that makes me hopeful about the progress we are making.
