Leans Progressive
Primary
The series consistently critiques the rise of authoritarianism and systemic oppression by the Galactic Empire, championing themes of resistance, individuality, and the protection of the vulnerable against a powerful, unjust regime.
The series features a diverse cast, primarily through its protagonists, the clones, whose genetic origin is established as non-white within the Star Wars universe. The narrative explores themes of identity, freedom, and resistance against an oppressive regime, without explicitly critiquing or negatively portraying traditional identities.
Secondary
The show features Fennec Shand, a skilled bounty hunter, who demonstrates superior martial arts and close-quarters combat abilities against male opponents, including the highly trained clone commando Hunter.
Star Wars: The Bad Batch does not include any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses on the clones' journey and their familial bonds without exploring queer identities or relationships, resulting in no direct LGBTQ+ portrayal.
The animated series "Star Wars: The Bad Batch" does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The narrative focuses on clone troopers and their adventures, with no explicit or implicit portrayal of transgender identity within its storyline or character arcs.
All established characters returning in Star Wars: The Bad Batch maintain their canonical gender. New characters introduced do not replace existing characters of a different gender, nor do they represent a gender swap of any previously established individual.
The animated series features characters like the clones, whose appearance is consistent with their origin from Jango Fett (portrayed by Temuera Morrison, a Māori actor). Other legacy characters also maintain their established racial or species depictions from prior Star Wars canon. No established character's race was altered.
