Though there’s been criticism of how the show could have more overtly presented their relationship, it’s important to remember the series ended before same-sex marriage was even legal, and that Korrasami walked so other queer ships could run. But more important for the purposes of this list, The Legend of Korra introduced Nickelodeon’s first bisexual protagonist, Korra (Janet Varney), and ended with her in love with Asami Sato (Seychelle Gabriel) in the series finale. In addition to beautiful animation and martial-arts choreography, it extended Avatar’s legacy through the elements of peace and balance - while navigating a more technologically advanced world - with relevant political themes. The long-awaited sequel to one of western animation’s greatest hits, Avatar: the Last Airbender, The Legend of Korra carried a lot of expectations, leaving fans wondering if the show would honor its predecessor’s legacy.

Luckily, in the special Distant Lands - Obsidian, their relationship is explored in more detail and inspires one of the best love songs in western animation, “Monster.”Īdventure Time is streaming on HBO Max.

Though their feelings for each other were hinted at throughout the series, it wasn’t until the series finale that the two finally kiss and are confirmed to be a couple. One of Cartoon Network’s longest and most successful franchises - running for ten seasons with follow-up specials - the show is also well-known for its most popular ship, Bubbline, the femslash ship between Marceline and Princess Bubblegum. Pendleton Ward’s Adventure Time follows adventurer Finn (Jeremy Shada) in the post-apocalyptic Land of Ooo, where he hangs with his friends Jake (John DiMaggio), Princess Bubblegum (Hynden Walch), Marceline the Vampire Queen (Olivia Olson), and more. Unfortunately, much of the original show’s dubbing in English erased its queer coding, transforming the queer couple into “cousins.”

Created in the ’90s, the series was groundbreaking in its presentation of queer characters, shipping butch-femme favorite Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune and later introducing the gender-bending trio the Sailor Starlights. Created by legendary mangaka (manga creator) Naoko Takeuchi, the series focuses on schoolgirl Usagi Tsukino (Kotono Mitsuishi), otherwise known as Sailor Moon, as she fights alongside her friends, the Sailor Scouts, defending the planet Earth against the forces of evil. This list couldn’t exist without Sailor Moon.
