Notes

It is also known as A tale of Worst One by the English title in the anime version
This GLAAD report says "Nickelodeon's The Loud House still features bisexual character Luna Loud, and showed her starting to date Sam, a girl from school, earlier this year."
Specifically an article titled "From Steven Universe to Voltron: The fight to bring LGBTQ characters to kids' shows" by Nick Romano.
She is called "Jeffrey" for much of the series and is a protagonist of the series, with her sister, Sara
In Ep 13, Tohru suddenly vanishes after a confrontation with her father. Upon hearing this, Kobayashi attempts to take care of Kanna without her, which is later shown to make her life much more stressful, almost compared to a single parent. Later in the episode, Kobayashi risks her life to keep Tohru by her side, with her father finally letting her daughter be, calling her foolish for having relations with a human who doesn't even have the same lifespan as her.
Multiple occasions in the show reveal that Tohru's maid acts appeal to Kobayashi's "turn-ons", most especially when drunk. In Episode 8, Tohru becomes jealous with Kobayashi's interactions with Elma to the point of almost reverting to her old ways upon meeting Kobayashi. Kobayashi later catches on the situation and explains to Tohru that she has never had close friends alongside not understanding relationships, so being direct with her feelings is new to her.
Because of the ambiguous nature of the series finale, it remains unknown whether Shio will grow up to have relationships or still maintain her belief that she has been reborn, and happily together with Sato.
From 3:55:40 to 3:57:26 in the video, Noelle says, "Entrapta has a lot of robot boyfriends and girlfriends...Entrapdak is canon...The robots learn to love because of her, and that's like Hordak," while making a number of other comments about Entrapta and Hordak.
Because it is implied Arashi was mistreated and hurt by peers in the past, she is extremely passionate about self-love and positive self-esteem, to the point of appearing narcissistic to others. On the matter of self-love, she has said: “No matter how much I want it, and no matter how hard I try... I could never become the beautiful woman I dream to be. But even if that's true... I won't let it depress me. I won't whine about it anymore. I love myself most, no matter who I am.”
Most Steven Universe characters are non-binary, but Shep is the first one to be a non-binary human.
Sam Cleal of BuzzFeed calls her "LGBTQ" but never explains more than that.

[115] She is called "Jeffrey" for much of the series and is a protagonist of the series, with her sister, Sara

[131] In Ep 13, Tohru suddenly vanishes after a confrontation with her father. Upon hearing this, Kobayashi attempts to take care of Kanna without her, which is later shown to make her life much more stressful, almost compared to a single parent. Later in the episode, Kobayashi risks her life to keep Tohru by her side, with her father finally letting her daughter be, calling her foolish for having relations with a human who doesn't even have the same lifespan as her.

[132] Multiple occasions in the show reveal that Tohru's maid acts appeal to Kobayashi's "turn-ons", most especially when drunk. In Episode 8, Tohru becomes jealous with Kobayashi's interactions with Elma to the point of almost reverting to her old ways upon meeting Kobayashi. Kobayashi later catches on the situation and explains to Tohru that she has never had close friends alongside not understanding relationships, so being direct with her feelings is new to her.

[178] Because of the ambiguous nature of the series finale, it remains unknown whether Shio will grow up to have relationships or still maintain her belief that she has been reborn, and happily together with Sato.

[222] From 3:55:40 to 3:57:26 in the video, Noelle says, "Entrapta has a lot of robot boyfriends and girlfriends...Entrapdak is canon...The robots learn to love because of her, and that's like Hordak," while making a number of other comments about Entrapta and Hordak.

[264] Because it is implied Arashi was mistreated and hurt by peers in the past, she is extremely passionate about self-love and positive self-esteem, to the point of appearing narcissistic to others. On the matter of self-love, she has said: “No matter how much I want it, and no matter how hard I try... I could never become the beautiful woman I dream to be. But even if that's true... I won't let it depress me. I won't whine about it anymore. I love myself most, no matter who I am.”

[282] Most Steven Universe characters are non-binary, but Shep is the first one to be a non-binary human.

[297] Sam Cleal of BuzzFeed calls her "LGBTQ" but never explains more than that.
