Detailed Bias Analysis

Center
Primary
The film leans right due to its foundational celebration of entrepreneurship, individual wealth creation, and the pursuit of adventure, while tempering these themes with universal moral lessons about the importance of family and the dangers of unchecked greed.
The 2017 DuckTales reboot incorporates visible diversity through its character design and voice casting, particularly with new characters, without explicitly recasting traditionally white roles. The narrative maintains a neutral to positive framing of traditional identities, focusing on adventure and character development rather than explicit critique or strong DEI themes.
Secondary
DuckTales features multiple same-sex couples in supporting roles, including Violet Sabrewing's two fathers and Lena De Spell's two aunts. These relationships are consistently depicted as normal, loving, and fully integrated into the characters' lives without prejudice, contributing to a positive and affirming portrayal.
The show features female characters like Webby Vanderquack and Della Duck who frequently engage in and win close-quarters physical fights against multiple male opponents, including various villains and soldiers, using martial arts and combat skills.
The animated series "DuckTales" (1987) does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The narrative focuses on adventure and family dynamics within the established Disney universe, without engaging with transgender identity.
The 1987 DuckTales series faithfully adapted its comic book source material, with all established characters retaining their original genders. New characters introduced in the show do not qualify as gender swaps.
The characters in DuckTales are anthropomorphic ducks, not human. The concept of human race does not apply to them, thus a "race swap" as defined cannot occur.
