The series' central conflict is a clear anti-authoritarian and anti-colonial struggle against a tyrannical, exploitative empire, championed by a diverse, grassroots rebellion fighting for liberation and self-determination.
Star Wars: Rebels features a visibly diverse ensemble cast, including characters of various species and some racial diversity among its human characters. The narrative focuses on a struggle against an oppressive regime, with its critique aimed at authoritarianism rather than traditional identities, which are often portrayed positively among the heroes.
The show features female characters such as Sabine Wren and Ahsoka Tano who are highly skilled combatants. They are frequently depicted engaging in and winning close-quarters physical fights against multiple male opponents, utilizing melee weapons and martial arts.
Star Wars: Rebels does not explicitly depict any LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The series focuses on a found family of rebels, but their relationships and identities are not presented through an LGBTQ+ lens.
Star Wars: Rebels introduces new characters and features established characters from the broader Star Wars canon. All returning characters maintain their previously established gender, and no new characters are gender-swapped from prior canonical or historical portrayals.
Star Wars: Rebels primarily features new, original characters whose races were not previously established. Legacy characters appearing in the series are consistently portrayed in line with their established races or species from prior Star Wars canon. No instances of a character canonically established as one race being portrayed as a different race were found.
