Center
Primary
The film's central themes of friendship, belonging, and self-acceptance are presented in a universal and apolitical context, focusing on gentle emotional arcs rather than ideological positions.
The film features an ensemble of anthropomorphic, non-human characters, which means the evaluation criteria for human racial and gender diversity in casting and narrative framing are not directly applicable. The story focuses on themes of friendship and belonging among these characters, without engaging with or critiquing traditional human identities or explicit DEI themes.
Secondary
The film 'Sumikko Gurashi: The Pop-up Book and the Secret Child' does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses on the adventures of the Sumikko Gurashi characters within a magical pop-up book, without incorporating elements related to queer identity or experiences.
The film 'Sumikko Gurashi: The Pop-up Book and the Secret Child' does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes within its story or cast. Consequently, there is no portrayal to evaluate, resulting in an N/A rating.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
The Sumikko Gurashi characters, including those featured in the film, are generally depicted as gender-neutral in their original franchise. As their gender was never explicitly specified or visually unambiguous in prior canon, there is no established baseline gender from which a swap could occur.
The film features anthropomorphic animal and object characters, which do not possess a human race in their original canon or on-screen portrayal. Therefore, the concept of a race swap, which applies to human characters, is not applicable.
