Primary
The series focuses on universal themes of heroism, friendship, and the responsible use of science and technology, without explicitly promoting or critiquing specific political ideologies from either the left or the right.
The series features a visibly diverse main cast, reflecting various ethnic backgrounds as part of its original character design. The narrative focuses on adventure and teamwork, maintaining a neutral to positive portrayal of all characters without explicitly critiquing traditional identities.
Secondary
The series features a very brief, incidental mention of a same-sex marriage by a minor character, Dr. Lily, who refers to her wife. This portrayal is not central to the plot or character development and neither uplifts nor denigrates LGBTQ+ identity, resulting in a neutral net impact.
The series features Go Go Tomago, a member of Big Hero 6, who frequently engages in and wins direct physical fights against multiple male opponents. She utilizes her speed, agility, and discs as melee weapons to incapacitate adversaries.
The series continues the narrative and characters from the "Big Hero 6" film, which itself is based on Marvel Comics. All main characters retain their established genders from the source material and prior adaptations.
The animated series is a direct continuation of the 2014 film. All main characters retain the same racial depictions established in the original movie, with no changes to their race.
