Center
Primary
The series primarily focuses on universal moral lessons such as teamwork, resourcefulness, and the consequences of greed, presenting a classic good versus evil narrative without a clear political agenda.
This animated series features a cast of fantastical, non-human creatures, which inherently sidesteps traditional human casting considerations. The narrative focuses on the interactions between these distinct species without explicitly addressing or critiquing human traditional identities or making DEI themes central to its plot.
Secondary
The children's animated series "Bottersnikes & Gumbles" focuses on the adventures and interactions between two distinct species. There are no discernible LGBTQ+ characters, relationships, or themes present in the show's storyline or character arcs, resulting in no depiction of queer identity.
The animated series primarily features comedic chases and escapades where Gumbles (including female characters) outsmart or evade the Bottersnikes. There are no instances of female characters engaging in or winning direct physical combat against male opponents through skill, strength, or martial arts.
The animated series introduces new, original characters within the established world of Bottersnikes and Gumbles. There is no evidence of specific named characters from the original books being portrayed with a different gender in the show.
The series features fictional non-human creatures (Bottersnikes and Gumbles) whose species characteristics do not align with the definition of human race. Therefore, the concept of a 'race swap' does not apply to this adaptation.
