Primary
The film's left-leaning rating is primarily driven by its central focus on Shuri, a Black female genius from Wakanda, and its emphasis on a diverse team of young heroes collaborating to protect cultural heritage, promoting themes of representation and empowerment.
This movie prominently features a diverse ensemble of heroes, including characters of various racial and ethnic backgrounds, reflecting an intentional focus on diverse representation. The narrative, however, does not explicitly critique or negatively portray traditional identities, instead focusing on the heroes' adventure and teamwork.
Secondary
The film features Doreen Green (Squirrel Girl) who, using her enhanced physical abilities, engages in and wins direct physical confrontations against multiple male opponents in close-quarters combat.
The film does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. Its narrative focuses on Shuri's visit to the United States and her team-up with the Secret Warriors to combat a technological threat, without incorporating any queer representation.
The film features established Marvel characters such as Shuri, Ms. Marvel, and Patriot, whose on-screen genders align with their canonical portrayals in the source material. No character established as one gender is depicted as a different gender.
Shuri, a character canonically established as Black in Marvel Comics, is portrayed as Black in this animated film. No other major or legacy characters in the film have their race changed from their established canonical depictions.
