Gay sailor moon characters

For a s magical girl anime, Sailor Moon gave its viewers a variety of inclusive LGBTQ+ characters to fall in love with and be inspired by. Sailor Moon is famous for having a comparatively large cast of gay, bi and lesbian characters, and, depending on interpretation, trans* ones as well. In honor of Pride I thought I’d make a dedication post listing out all the confirmed queer or queer-coded characters across the entirety of the franchise divided by each version - Sailor Moon is a very near and dear series to my heart, there are so many elements that make it great, but one of these most important elements was the fact that it.

Most kids who grew up in the ‘90s are aware that in its original form, Sailor Moon ’s Sailor Neptune and Sailor Uranus aren’t actually cousins, but were instead a lesbian couple. The. This includes characters who are either gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, queer, or any other non-heterosexual orientation, non-allosexual/alloromantic orientation (e.g., aromantic and asexual), and/or non-cisgender gender identity (e.g., non-binary, agender, and genderfluid).

That said, I feel like Sailor Moon , as a show itself, is becoming a queer icon. Several young LGBT-identified actors have confirmed they're fans of the show. Rowan Blanchard, who said she identifies as queer, dressed as Sailor Moon for Halloween one year and has several posts related to the show on her Instagram.

Keiynan Lonsdale, who recently starred in the gay teen romantic comedy Love, Simon and identifies as bisexual, owns several Sailor Moon t-shirts. Has anyone else noticed what I'm noticing? Or is it just me? Likes: godot. Mitsukara Luna. Apr 1, 36 D-Point. This doesn't make me any kind of authority because that's not how it works, but, hopefully it does mean my opinion is at least relevant.

The anime made it very clear that regardless of what mistakes or wrong choices or harm they did in the rest of their lives, their romance was a strength, and that it was no less powerful nor real a form of love. Usagi is also very flirty with girls in terms of the extent to which she admires them, blushes, had a kiss with Haruka in the manga, nuzzles with Rei whilest blushing in the anime near the end of R when Chibi-Usa is missing and Rei's trying to cheer her up , and so on.

Or that scene in the alley where Makoto stares at Ami's back end when she falls over, or more romantically, that big dance scene with Ami and Makoto where Makoto was doing the wallflower thing and Ami was doing the romantic go up and ask the wallflower to dance thing They like to flirt with the line of bisexuality quite often.

The trans stuff is less developed but that there's any to speak of is noteworthy. Zoisite is an extremely effeminate man while Kunzite is not , although conflating transsexuality with homosexuality is problematic and tricky but whatever, I can appreciate how femininely cool Zoisite is for it's own sake without worrying about that.

Fisheye moreso seems to prefer dressing as female at every given opportunity and could easily be considered female even in his? Then there's the starlights, who seem to be genderfluid but based on magic they shoot stuff as girls and relax as guys. No one ever stops to treat this as weird or objectionable in any way and I kind of love that fact.

In the manga they're just girls though.

In any case, Sailor Moon managed to get through episodes with almost nothing in the way of negativity towards LGBT subjects there's some weirdness about Makoto showing interest in Haruka, briefly, sort of, once, offhandedly , full of attractive characters both masculine and feminine, yet of either gender masculine girls and feminine guys too and with at least semi-positive, decidedly sympathetic portrayals of homosexual couples, and a noticeable bit of lean towards bisexuality in it's main characters.
