Detailed Bias Analysis

Center
Primary
The Amazing World of Gumball is an absurdist comedy that primarily focuses on humor and satire of general human folly and societal norms, rather than promoting a consistent political ideology. Its core conflicts are apolitical, leading to a neutral rating.
The series features a highly diverse cast of anthropomorphic animals and objects, which inherently transcends traditional human racial and gender categories. The narrative primarily focuses on surreal comedy and satire of everyday life, rather than explicitly engaging with or critiquing traditional human identities or making DEI themes central to its storytelling.
Secondary
The Amazing World of Gumball subtly incorporates themes of gender role subversion and diverse expressions of affection through its comedic narrative. While not explicitly featuring LGBTQ+ characters or storylines, the show's overall message of acceptance and individuality creates an implicitly inclusive environment, avoiding both strong affirmation and denigration of queer identity.
The Amazing World of Gumball does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The narrative does not engage with transsexual identity, either explicitly or implicitly, resulting in no portrayal to evaluate.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
The Amazing World of Gumball is an original animated series. All characters were created for this show, meaning there are no pre-existing characters from prior source material or history whose gender could have been changed.
The Amazing World of Gumball features anthropomorphic animal and object characters, not humans. The concept of human race, as defined for a 'race swap,' does not apply to these characters, nor were they established as a specific human race in prior canon.
