The Little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea (2000)

The Little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative centers on a traditional coming-of-age story for Melody and a conflict with a villain, without incorporating any elements related to queer identity or experiences.

The film does not feature any scenes where a female character engages in and wins direct physical combat against one or more male opponents. Combat in the film is primarily magical or involves chases, with no instances of hand-to-hand or melee weapon victories by female characters over males.

All returning legacy characters from the original film maintain their established gender. New characters introduced in this sequel do not count as gender swaps per the definition.

This animated sequel features the original characters maintaining their established appearances and implied races from the 1989 film. No character canonically established as one race in prior installments is portrayed as a different race.
