Dragon Blade features a diverse cast that naturally arises from its historical setting of Roman and Chinese interaction on the Silk Road, without intentional DEI-driven recasting. The narrative promotes themes of cross-cultural unity and peace, portraying traditional identities neutrally or positively, with individual villainy not tied to broader identity critiques.
Secondary
