Analyzing...
Progressive
Primary
The series receives a -2 rating due to its pervasive and explicit critique of corporate power, systemic corruption, and the abuse of authority by the powerful elite, which are central tenets of progressive ideology. The anthology consistently portrays powerful entities as morally bankrupt and dangerous, exploiting the public for profit and power.
The animated anthology series features a visibly diverse cast across its various stories. Its narrative, consistent with the broader 'The Boys' universe, frequently critiques traditional power structures and often portrays traditional identities, particularly white male figures, in a negative or satirical light, highlighting their flaws and corruption.
Secondary
The series features female characters who achieve victories in direct physical combat against male opponents. Sun-Hee, temporarily empowered by a serum, physically defeats multiple male security personnel. Nubian Princess, a supe, overpowers her father in a close-quarters brawl using her superhuman strength.
Black Noir, a character who is white in the original 'The Boys' comic series, is portrayed in 'The Boys Presents: Diabolical' consistent with the live-action show's casting of a Black actor, constituting a race swap from the source material.
The anthology series 'The Boys Presents: Diabolical' does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes across its various episodes. The narratives focus on different aspects of 'The Boys' universe without incorporating queer identities or storylines.
The animated anthology series 'The Boys Presents: Diabolical' does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The various short stories explore different facets of the 'The Boys' universe, but none directly address transsexual identity or experiences within their narratives.
The animated anthology series features established characters from 'The Boys' universe, such as Homelander and Billy Butcher, whose genders remain consistent with their source material. New characters introduced in the series are original and do not constitute gender swaps.
