I think Anne called them a lady in one episode. Ah you're right she does once. Not sure if Terri uses both, or it's just a retcon then. LGBTQ+ characters from Amphibia. Our heroes triumphed in their final battle, said farewell to their closest friends, and moved forward into an uncertain future.

When dana somehow got away with it she rushed season 1 so that it would include the gay as well as tell an entire series. If it was present, such characters and themes would often be marred by needless stereotypes and hurtful writing that either failed to understand the queer experience or actively sought to make fun of it.

Things have changed, and much of that progress has been for the better, but as representation becomes more widespread and fandoms grow in size and influence, infighting unfortunately begins to drag down the steps forward these creators are trying to take. Steven Universe was a substantial benchmark for queer rep in animation, making strides alongside Adventure Time and The Legend of Korra as they all sought to depict queer couples in a way that was normalised.

It was perfect for young and old viewers alike. This show set the foundation for additional milestones like She-Ra and the Princesses of Power. He succeeded, and the show has become iconic amidst queer communities because of how groundbreaking it managed to be. The Owl House followed. Many thought the worst given it was being helmed by Disney, but it overcame expectations and gave us a canon romance between its two lead characters, the non-binary character Raine Whispers , and a selection of background characters who happily identify as queer.

Chemistry between Yunan and Olivia has been rampant, teasing that a full relationship between the two will blossom in the coming weeks.

Sharp comedic timing and sweet dialogue help this episode shine, and as expected, social media hopped on these gay little nuggets and shouted about them from the rooftops.

I was right there along with them, fawning over fan art and observations from the production crew that detailed how these little moments were made possible.

It was amazing, but the two gay men I mentioned earlier were immediately compared by some to Luz and Amity from The Owl House. One man had purple hair, while the other was a man of colour, so I suppose those dots were enough to establish some sort of connection. If I squint I can see it?
