That changes in the final season, which just dropped on Netflix. They got some time to shine, but they weren’t main characters, so they were only in an episode or two a season. It wasn’t as much as fans would have liked and Netossa and Spinerella never seemed to get as much focus as queer fans wanted. Over the course of the first four seasons of the series, more representation was introduced, including two gay dads for Bow, one of the main characters. This alone was already a win for queer fans, as queer representation in media aimed at children has proven to be minimal to non-existent. The series is helmed by Noelle Stevenson, a queer woman, and has two supporting queer characters (Spinerella and Netossa) that are clearly a couple. The answer? So much more than we even hoped. When Den of Geek called She-Ra and the Princesses of Power the next step in queer representation back in 2018, just before it premiered, we had no idea how fully the show would live up to that designation. Turn away if you haven’t seen it already! Warning! This article has spoilers for the entire final season of SHE-RA AND THE PRINCESSES OF POWER.
