Martian Successor Nadesico (1996)
Overview
Only one ship stands between earth and total annihilation! The High Mobile Battleship Nadesico is the most formidable fighting machine ever conceived, but due to a shortage of trained soldiers, the crew is a little unorthodox. The poor Jovians don't stand a chance against the largest contingent of geeks and misfits ever sent into orbit!

Leans Progressive
Primary
The film leans left due to its consistent critique of military bureaucracy, propaganda, and the xenophobia fueling conflict, advocating for understanding and communication as primary solutions to war.
This anime features a visibly diverse cast in terms of character roles and personalities. However, its narrative does not explicitly critique traditional identities or center on strong DEI themes. The casting does not involve explicit race or gender swaps of traditionally white roles, given its Japanese origin.
Secondary
Martian Successor Nadesico includes characters like Jun Aoi and Gai Daigaina whose intense affections for Akito could be interpreted as same-sex attraction. These are primarily used for comedic effect and character quirks, rather than being deeply explored or affirmed. The portrayal is largely incidental, neither uplifting nor denigrating LGBTQ+ themes.
Martian Successor Nadesico does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. While some characters might be mistaken for a different gender or engage in temporary cross-dressing for comedic or plot purposes, these instances do not explore or depict transsexual identity, resulting in no relevant portrayal.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
Martian Successor Nadesico (1996) is an original anime series, not an adaptation or reboot of prior material. Therefore, its characters are original to this production and cannot be considered gender-swapped from an earlier established canon.
Martian Successor Nadesico (1996) is the original animated production for its characters. There is no prior canonical screen or visual source material from which characters could have been race-swapped within this series.
