The depiction of LGBT characters in animated series in the 2020s changed from the 2010s, accelerating. This included series such as Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts,[1] and Adachi and Shimamura (2020),[2] in 2020, Otherside Picnic.[3] and High Guardian Spice[4] in 2021, Dead End: Paranormal Park[5] in 2022, Scott Pilgrim Takes Off,[6] The Magical Revolution of the Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady,[7] and I'm in Love with the Villainess,[8] in 2023, Cherry Magic! Thirty Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard?![9] in 2024, and others across multiple years, such as The Owl House (2020–2023),[10] Helluva Boss (2020–present),[11] Adventure Time: Distant Lands (2020–2021),[12] and Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury (2022–2023).[13]

This list only includes recurring characters, otherwise known as supporting characters, which appear frequently from time to time during the series' run, often playing major roles in more than one episode, and those in the main cast are listed below. LGBTQ characters which are guest stars or one-off characters are listed on the pages focusing exclusively on gay (in animation and anime), lesbian (in animation and anime), bisexual (in animation and anime), trans, pansexual, asexual, non-binary, and intersex characters.

The entries on this page are organized alphanumerically by duration dates and then alphabetically by the first letter of a specific series.
