Progressive
Primary
The film explores a young girl's struggle with identity, mental health, and the pressures of growing up, advocating for self-acceptance and authentic expression over societal conformity, which aligns with progressive values.
The series features a main cast of diverse, original characters, including a queer protagonist and racially diverse best friends. Its narrative is centrally focused on themes of identity, self-discovery, and the exploration of non-traditional experiences.
Secondary
Twelve Forever offers a positive portrayal of LGBTQ+ themes through its sensitive depiction of Todd, a non-binary character navigating identity and acceptance. The show also normalizes same-sex attraction via protagonist Reggie's crush on a female friend. The narrative consistently frames identity exploration with empathy and respect, affirming the worth of diverse experiences.
The animated series features Reggie, a young girl who, in her fantasy world, engages in physical combat. In one notable instance, she defeats a large male opponent in a wrestling match using her strength and skill.
Twelve Forever is an original animated series. All characters were created for this specific production and do not have prior canonical gender establishments from source material or previous installments to be swapped from.
