Autism Representation

Larissa

I've been thinking a lot about autism representation in media and wanted to hear other peoples recommendations, especially ones that feel meaningful to you. What I'm really interested in is media that includes autistic creators/actors and shows autistic people as fully rounded individuals, not just defined by autism. Thanks.

  • Sesame Street had an autistic character, iirc.

    And I feel like there's a lot of characters in fiction that while aren't explicitly stated as being autistic, do have a lot of traits that often lend to the fandom referring to as autistic, for E.G. Suletta Mercury from Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury
