LGBTQ+ ANIME MASTERPOST

theenchantedyears:

This post should contain all (or at least a good number of) LGBTQ+ anime characters as of July 2018! This should make finding new queer anime easier for us all, so hope you enjoy.

Two brief rules:

1. Canon queer characters only: This doesn’t mean the character needs to have explicitly looked at the camera and said “I am queer”, but there does need to be evidence for their queerness.

2. No non-consensual stuff. Obviously.

I’ll be going through LGBTQ+ alphabetically for our convenience, and I’ve indicated anime in which queerness is an important part of the story with a *. Also, no one has seen all anime ever made, so feel free to expand on this list, but hopefully you should find new anime here too.
