Leans Right

Primary

Political: CenterConfidence: High

The film focuses on universal themes of human survival and cooperation against existential threats, without explicitly promoting a specific political ideology. It balances the need for collective action and scientific ingenuity with a cautious skepticism towards external powers that seek to control humanity, resulting in a neutral stance.

Diversity: LowConfidence: High

The film features traditional casting for a Japanese production, with an entirely Japanese cast portraying characters within their cultural context. Its narrative focuses on sci-fi action and national defense, without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or incorporating central DEI themes.

Secondary

LGBTQ: N/AConfidence: High

Shin Ultraman does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative is centered on sci-fi action, government bureaucracy, and philosophical discussions about humanity and alien life, without exploring queer identities or relationships.

FemPower: NoConfidence: High

The film primarily focuses on male characters and Ultraman engaging in combat against kaiju and alien threats. The main female character, Hiroko Asami, serves in an analytical and strategic capacity within the SSSP and does not participate in direct physical combat.

Gender Swap: NoConfidence: High

The film introduces new characters and reinterprets existing ones, but no established character from the Ultraman franchise who was canonically male or female is portrayed as a different gender in "Shin Ultraman."

Race Swap: NoConfidence: High
