Center

Primary

The film's central conflict revolves around time travel and preventing paradoxes, with a solution emphasizing teamwork and responsibility to restore the timeline, themes that are universal and lack specific political alignment.

The film features a diverse voice cast in some supporting roles, but its main human characters are portrayed in a manner consistent with their traditional depictions, without explicit race or gender swaps. The narrative focuses on adventure and heroism, maintaining a neutral or positive framing of traditional identities without explicit DEI themes.

Secondary

Half-Shell Heroes: Blast to the Past does not include any discernible LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' adventure without incorporating elements related to queer identity, resulting in no specific portrayal to evaluate.

This animated film, a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles special, does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The narrative focuses on time travel, dinosaurs, and the conflict between the Turtles and Shredder, without incorporating any elements related to transgender identity.

The film features a prehistoric version of April O'Neil who participates in action alongside the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. While she is shown to be resourceful and brave, there are no distinct scenes where she individually defeats one or more male opponents in close-quarters physical combat.

This film features established Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles characters and their allies and foes. All major characters, including the Turtles, Splinter, April O'Neil, Bebop, and Rocksteady, maintain their canonically established genders from previous iterations and source material.

The film features anthropomorphic turtles and rats, which do not possess a human race. Human characters like April O'Neil, Casey Jones, and Shredder are depicted consistently with their established racial portrayals from prior iterations of the franchise.
