The TVI Take

Dana Terrace's Disney Channel animated series whose structural commitment to LGBTQ+ representation, the Luz / Amity romance is canonical, the Raine Whispers character is a major non-binary lead, was network-animation progressive for its 2020 launch. The Boiling Isles world-design (a literal corpse the protagonists live on) is among the most-developed animated-fantasy settings of its era.
