Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures (2013)

The animated series "Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures" does not include any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. Its narrative centers on Pac-Man's adventures and comedic situations, with no explicit or implicit representation of queer identities or experiences. Therefore, the net impact on LGBTQ+ portrayal is N/A.

The show features female characters such as Cylindria and Pinky. Cylindria primarily contributes through intellect and technology, while Pinky, as a ghost, engages in combat using her spectral abilities. Neither character is depicted winning in direct physical combat, such as hand-to-hand or martial arts, against male opponents.

The show introduces new characters and maintains the gender of the titular character. While one of the ghosts, Pinky, is portrayed as female, her gender was not consistently established as male across all prior Pac-Man canon, and in some iterations, she was already female.

The main characters in Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures are non-human, spherical beings, and the human-like characters introduced in the show are original to this adaptation. There are no instances of a character established as one human race being portrayed as another.
