Leans Progressive
Primary
The series' central conflict revolves around resisting the Galactic Empire's systemic oppression and protecting vulnerable Force-sensitives, aligning with progressive values of anti-authoritarianism and social justice. The narrative champions individual acts of courage and an underground resistance network as solutions to tyranny.
The series incorporates visible diversity within its supporting cast through new characters, rather than recasting established roles. The narrative maintains a traditional framing of its main protagonist and antagonist, without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or centering its themes on explicit DEI critiques.
Secondary
The show features Reva Sevander, a Force-sensitive Inquisitor, who repeatedly uses her lightsaber in close-quarters combat to defeat multiple male Imperial stormtroopers. Her victories involve melee weapon skills.
The series 'Obi-Wan Kenobi' does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. Consequently, there is no specific portrayal to evaluate within the narrative, resulting in an N/A rating for LGBTQ+ representation.
The 'Obi-Wan Kenobi' series does not include any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. Consequently, there is no portrayal to evaluate, resulting in a net impact rating of N/A according to the provided rubric.
The series features established characters like Obi-Wan Kenobi, Darth Vader, and Leia Organa, all of whom retain their canonical genders from prior Star Wars media. New characters introduced in the show do not qualify as gender swaps, as their genders were not previously established.
