I wish they added more scenes about Lumity, like “Clouds in the Horizon” they have the best kiss that got everyone’s reactions this huge for a Disney cartoon

These moments aren't just the most romantic, they've also become some of the most iconic moments as well and it's all absolutely amazing!!!

[@rafaelmatos5851]

They have also set the stage for many other LGBTQ+ couples in animation to come, so that children are raised knowing that being part of the LGBTQ+ is something natural and to be acceptive of and create a much better world.

Oh and also Blake and Yang vs Adam in RWBY. I know they aren't confirmed but come on, they clearly have feelings for each other. Also that was a big moment.

[@pepito2847]

I could imagine Korra telling Asami that she could beat her without using her bending So Asami challenges her girl to a sparring match Korra charges but Asami is too quick for her Then Asami put Korra in an armlock Korra screams in pain and admits she was wrong And Asami says “you’re so cute when you act all tough” then kisses Korra on the cheek and leaves lipstick on Korra’s cheek 💋 Korra sighs in defeat and Asami giggles

There is one thing I found offensive about Mr. Ratburn and the special someone episode. Is the ending when Arthur and his friends are having cake apparently delicious, the episode should have ended with Mr. Ratburn saying "Oh are we having cake?"

[@mackswhale]

This video made my heart sing :) ❤️❤️

[@snowleopard3644]

Could you please do a list only on the Owl House? There are so many amazing moments there, ranging from the grom dance or the Lumity kiss in 'Clouds Over The Horizon', over Raine and Eda meeting and dancing afterwards in the arena, to Alador standing up to that nightmare Odalia... The top ships (canon and/or fanon) would also be a great list. My favourites are : Lumity(obviously), Raeda (also obvious), Vinira (I know Em and Viney haven't had much interaction, but still), and I also ship Gus, Hunter and Willow in a polyamorous relationship... (though basically no one seems to agree with me, I think it would be a great relationship). I'm not opposed to Huntlow/Winter, though.

[@benlevan5645]

One of the best things to me about Korra and Asami getting together is that both are exes of Mako. Just so funny to me. Guy is so bad at relationships that he drives both of his girlfriends to be with each other.

[@ExtremeMadnessX]

Another best thing about Korra and Asami is how total opposite they are but simultaneously perfectly complement each other (mystical x science, elements bending x technology) and also their red/blue aesthetic.

You have a very good taste. Yes, these moments are the most romantic ones, especially the numbers 10, 6, 5, 4 and 2. And these relationships are very stylish and very romantic indeed. These production really promote the emancipation of LGBTI people. This is true.

[@clarktooncrossing3975]

Okay, I might not be a Steven Universe fan (yet), but that wedding should've made #1 easily. Not only was this the first same-sex cartoon couple to tie the knot, also screwing over foreign, homophobic censors in the process, but we didn't have to wait until the end of their respective series to see them show that level of affection towards each other. I like Catradora, but their first kiss was relegated to the final episode after 4 seasons worth of emotional turmoil on both sides. At least they got to kiss, Korra and Asami had to wait for a comic book spin-off. Cute as those two are together, they should've been lower on the list. Heck, Disney was caught red handed supporting the Don't Say Gay Bill and Luz and Amity still got to kiss during the course of their show! I'm not saying I disagree with any of your choices, I'm just saying the ranking is somewhat wonky is all.

[@bbowens47]

I'm so happy that cartoons in today's media can display this kind of affection, speaking for myself and older generations we didn't see this kind of affection in for lgbt+ couples
