Strong Left
Primary
The film is left-leaning due to its central critique of a totalitarian regime, its emphasis on resistance, freedom, and unity across diverse realms, and its inclusion of empowered female and subtly LGBTQ+ characters, all aligning with progressive values.
Ninjago: Dragons Rising showcases a diverse cast with strong female characters and subtle LGBTQ+ representation, reflecting a broad social spectrum within its fantasy setting. The narrative critiques authoritarianism and promotes themes of inclusivity and social awareness, without explicitly critiquing traditional identities.
Secondary
Ninjago: Dragons Rising features subtle yet meaningful LGBTQ+ representation, including background characters with non-binary flags and implied queer relationships. These inclusions are presented as positive steps towards diversity and inclusivity, contributing to an overall affirming portrayal of LGBTQ+ themes within the show's narrative.
The show features prominent female characters like Nya and Sora who are depicted as skilled fighters. They actively participate in numerous battles and missions, consistently engaging in and winning physical combat against male adversaries, showcasing their strength and martial prowess.
The provided information does not indicate any established characters from previous Ninjago canon have undergone a gender swap in "Ninjago: Dragons Rising." Long-standing female characters like Nya maintain their gender, and new characters or background elements do not meet the definition of a gender swap.
The provided information highlights a diverse cast and new characters, but does not indicate any instance where a character canonically established as one race in previous Ninjago installments has been portrayed as a different race in "Ninjago: Dragons Rising."
