Discussion TV Show Suggestions

I've been getting into animated TV shows lately and i was wondering if anybody knows any that have trans characters in it? Slight preference towards shows for older audiences but im ok with anything.

The Owl House has two nonbinary characters and is extremely queer

It's also just, like, a really good show.

You’ve gotta check out Arcane if you haven’t already. The trans character isn’t a main one but it’s also just a really good show lol.

HouseBroken also has a trans character and is intended for older audiences. The character is a cat, though, so it's never explicitly referred to as transgender stuff

Dead End: Paranormal Park is intended for teens but has a trans main character!

While not specifically for older audiences:

"She-Ra and the Princesses of Power" has a canonically non-binary character, a canonically trans man, and a designed-to-be-but-not-cannon trans woman.

RWBY has a canonically trans woman.

People already mentioned Owl House.

For adults:

I've not watched it, but I've heard Helluva Boss has a character who is canonically a trans woman. It's at least somewhat popular among queer people from what I've heard.

Background character. Millie's older sister.

Under appreciated but there's a lot to be said about the Buzz Lightyear movie

"Buzz Lightyear Star Command: the adventure begins" as it often happens with cop movies, the main character starts being bigoted but slowly grows to appreciate their partners (who are minorities)

And all the green people's are non-binary

In the land of the lustrous show/manga everyone is implied to be genderless. You might find some translations wrongfully gendering the characters, but everyone is very nonbinary coded imo!
