* With ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'' as Luz and Amity are noted to have similarities to Adora and Catra, with the latter having feelings of inadequacy, and having a prickly demeanor towards the protagonist, yet can’t bring herself to hate her. Plus, there’s some degree of LesYay between them. Interestingly, it’s worth noting that ND Stevenson’s wife Molly Ostertag is a staff writer for the show. Even ''more'' amusing, both shows had the lead couple (Catra and Adora for ''She-Ra'' and Amity and Luz for ''The Owl House'') dancing in prom with one of them wearing a tux '''and''' their dance together being the SignatureScene involving the OfficialCouple of the show! Both shows having big LGBT elements definitely helps.

* The fandom has managed to get along well with the fandom of ''WebAnimation/HazbinHotel'' due to similar themes of redemption, gender identity, abuse, among some. Not to mention that some find Double Trouble to be similar to Angel Dust.

FandomRivalry in this series.

FandomRivalry FriendlyFandoms in this series.



* With the ''WesternAnimation/VoltronLegendaryDefender'' due to parts of the Voltron fanbase becoming embittered by some of the plot directions that Voltron took. In particular, the topic of LGBT+ representation is a big point of contention, due to Voltron [[spoiler:killing off an AdvertisedExtra gay character]] in Season 7 while She-Ra introduced LGBT+ representation as early as Season 1. Likewise, much of Voltron's notorious [[ShipToShipCombat shipping wars]] have carried over, with ships like Catra/Adora drawing comparisons to Keith/Lance. On the other side, ''Voltron'' fans believe that She-Ra is actually filtering their own fandom, as many of the toxic Keith/Lance shippers that started the issues with that fandom are moving to ''She-Ra'' to ship Catra/Adora. [[spoiler:It is fortunate for those fans that that ship had the support of the show's creators and was the ultimate endgame of the series.]]
* Many fans of [[WesternAnimation/SheRaPrincessOfPower original She-Ra]] and [[WesternAnimation/SheRaAndThePrincessesOfPower current She-Ra]] do not get along at all. Nostalgia is a major factor as well as other nasty discourse, but this is also partially fueled by Melendy Britt, the voice of the original She-Ra (along with other characters), posting on her Facebook [[CreatorBacklash disapproving]] of the crew making {{Take That}}s at the original series as well as her suggesting that the reboot is not made with the "loving force" of the original's fans. Meanwhile, reboot fans will argue that the show ''is'' a love letter to the original, seeing as crew members including reboot creator ND Stevenson have stated they were fans of it growing up.
* The announcement of both ''WesternAnimation/MastersOfTheUniverseRevelation'' and a [[WesternAnimation/HeManAndTheMastersOfTheUniverse2021 full reboot]] of ''WesternAnimation/HeManAndTheMastersOfTheUniverse'' has created a divide concerning the use of He-Man. Fans of ''Princesses of Power'' have wanted to see the creative team’s take on He-Man, Skeletor, and the rest of the Eternia cast of characters, while those looking forward to ''Revelation'' and the reboot do not want this version of She-Ra anywhere near either production, particularly as ''Revelation'' is supposed to be an adult-targeted production that producer Creator/KevinSmith has described as "Metal". Several fans meanwhile have suggested the opposite, a version of She-Ra in ''Revelation'' or the reboot divorced from the ''Princesses of Power'' version. The presence of not one, but two new ''He-Man'' series separate from ''Princesses of Power'' has also been interpreted by She-Ra fans as Mattel actively attempting to ignore and bury a series that they lack control over and doesn't sell merchandise to the degree they desire for a co-production. Interestingly, the rivalry does not extend to the creative team, with Smith praising ''Princesses of Power'' on his podcast, and [[Creator/NDStevenson ND]] [[https://screenrant.com/she-ra-masters-universe-crossover-netflix-christmas-special/ half-jokingly suggesting a crossover]] in the vein of the old ''He-Man/She-Ra'' ChristmasSpecial. Smith has also asked people not to use ''Revelation'' to attack ''Princesses of Power''.
** The divide with fans of ''Masters of the Universe'' deepened when Mattel began releasing She-Ra toys, specifically toys of the original She-Ra as part of their ''Masters of the Universe Origins'' toy line, along with figures of Hordak which were also based on his original incarnation. This is particularly notable as Mattel briefly released a line of dolls based on ''Princesses of Power'' only to quickly discontinue it following extremely poor sales. The focus on the original versions of the characters as part of a mass-market release (as opposed to a limited collector targeted release like the Super 7 line of figures) has heightened fears Mattel wants to ignore this incarnation of She-Ra and replace it in the public eye with a version made internally.
** Quite amusingly, both sets of fans were so eager to compare the two that "She Ra" actually trended ''higher'' than "He Man" on Twitter after the first ''Revelation'' teaser was released.
* Also gets this with ''WesternAnimation/TangledTheSeries'', especially with regards to [[spoiler:Catra's and Cassandra's villain arcs and their redemptions after both fandoms watches the other's show. Both characters followed a similar arc where they have deep-seated jealousy of the protagonist and feel like they've always been cast aside for them. It culminates both characters committing a horrible betrayal against the protagonist and all their villainous actions are out of spite and pettiness over the fact. While it is generally agreed that both characters' redemptions had their flaws, especially since both did vile things throughout the series, the debate is over which character's redemption was relatively done better. In Catra's case, supporters will point out hers was well done due to the fact that she was at least given the opportunity to improve herself and get much needed character development. Additionally, fans of ''She-Ra'' would observe that Cassandra had absolutely no problem embracing evil and only redeemed herself after Zhan Tiri deprived her of her power, thus she only became "good" again [[NominalHero because something bad happened to her personally]], ''not'' because of a moral dilemma, while Catra still cared about Adora deep down and made the conscious choice to pull a HeroicSacrifice to save Adora after seeing just how badly she messed up. Fans of ''Tangled'' however, will typically point out how unhealthy it was for Catra to enter into a relationship with Adora in the end because of how toxic and mentally unstable she has shown herself to be much like Cassandra, and felt Cassandra and Rapunzel going their separate ways is a route that should've been taken by Catra and Adora]].

* With ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'' fans, unsurprisingly, due to the heavy emphasis on LGBT science fiction/fantasy characters and themes, and even similar color palettes in their artwork. [[spoiler:There are also the similarities between Spinel and Catra, with both suffering from abandonment issues to the point of attempted omniside]]. [[spoiler:Once Horde Prime gets some screen time, there are a lot of comparisons between him and White Diamond as well]].
* With ''WesternAnimation/TheDragonPrince'', another show that attracted former
''WesternAnimation/VoltronLegendaryDefender'' due to parts of the Voltron fanbase becoming embittered by some of the plot directions that Voltron took. In particular, the topic of LGBT+ representation is a big point of contention, due to Voltron [[spoiler:killing off an AdvertisedExtra gay character]] in Season 7 while She-Ra introduced LGBT+ representation as early as Season 1.

On the other side, ''Voltron'' fans believe that She-Ra is actually filtering their own fandom, as many of the toxic Keith/Lance shippers that started the issues with that fandom are moving to ''She-Ra'' to ship Catra/Adora. [[spoiler:It is fortunate for those fans that were disillusioned with the fandom of that ship had show. This was helped when the support twitter account for ''The Dragon Prince'' released crossover sketches made by their artists of the show's creators characters of both shows interacting, specifically, Catra and was Rayla befriending each other, as well as Soren and Sea Hawk arm wrestling.
* With ''WesternAnimation/Castlevania2017'', given
the ultimate endgame of parallels between the series.romance of Vlad Dracula Ţepeş and Lisa, and the friendship between Hordak and Entrapta.
* There's also a nice overlap with the ''WesternAnimation/ElenaOfAvalor'' fandom, another show with Aimee Carrero voicing the lead character who's an ActionGirl and a princess. It's also garnered some comparison between Adora & Catra and Elena & Esteban due to [[spoiler:Adora/Elena having to accept Catra/Esteban as their enemy after the [[HisOwnWorstEnemy latter parties' self-destructive tendencies causes severe and irreversible damage]] all because they loathed being AlwaysSecondBest to the former parties.
]]
* Many fans With ''WesternAnimation/Ducktales2017'', as both shows are reboots of [[WesternAnimation/SheRaPrincessOfPower original She-Ra]] and [[WesternAnimation/SheRaAndThePrincessesOfPower current She-Ra]] do not get along at all. Nostalgia is a major factor as well as other nasty discourse, but this is also partially fueled by Melendy Britt, the voice of the original She-Ra (along with other characters), posting on her Facebook [[CreatorBacklash disapproving]] of the crew making {{Take That}}s at the original series as well as her suggesting that the reboot is not made with the "loving force" of the original's fans. Meanwhile, reboot fans will argue that the show ''is'' a love letter to the original, seeing as crew members including reboot creator popular shows from TheEighties. Heck, even ND Stevenson have stated they were fans of it growing up.
* The announcement of both ''WesternAnimation/MastersOfTheUniverseRevelation''
was a storyboard writer for [=DT17=]'s PilotMovie, and a [[WesternAnimation/HeManAndTheMastersOfTheUniverse2021 full reboot]] of ''WesternAnimation/HeManAndTheMastersOfTheUniverse'' has created a divide concerning the use of He-Man. Fans of ''Princesses of Power'' have wanted to see the creative team’s take on He-Man, Skeletor, and the rest wrote one of the Eternia cast episodes of characters, while those looking forward to ''Revelation'' and the reboot do not want this version of She-Ra anywhere near either production, particularly as ''Revelation'' is supposed to be an adult-targeted production that producer Creator/KevinSmith has described as "Metal". Several fans meanwhile have suggested the opposite, a version of She-Ra in ''Revelation'' or the reboot divorced from the ''Princesses of Power'' version.

season before moving on to ''She-Ra''. In both reboots, AdaptationalDiversity is at the forefront.
* Also gets There's an overlap between fans of this show and fans of the ''WesternAnimation/CarmenSandiego'' reboot, due to the similarities between them.
* It also popularly shares a fandom
with ''WesternAnimation/TangledTheSeries'', especially which again, is a show about a heroic princess and her friends while also having LesYay with regards her (former) best friend. Even more so when it was revealed that not unlike Catra, Cassandra secretly despised being AlwaysSecondBest to [[spoiler:Catra's Rapunzel [[spoiler:and shared the same abusive parental figure with her, eventually leading to her betrayal in search of achieving her own destiny, only to find herself conflicted about being evil and her estrangement from her ex-best friend. A lot of fans even note how accurate Cassandra's VillainSong "Crossing The Line" is in describing Catra, from how the titular princess is blessed and gets everything, all the way to the burning of bridges with her best friend. And much like Catra, Cassandra is left with nothing after driving everyone who once cared about her away and is given a ''very'' brutal TheReasonYouSuckSpeech by a shapeshifting being who manipulated her, and she's too broken to even care what happens that she practically begs the hero to just give up on her. Interestingly, both Catra's and Cassandra's villain arcs and their redemptions after both fandoms watches the other's show. Both characters followed a similar arc where they have deep-seated jealousy of the protagonist and feel like they've always been cast aside for them. It culminates both characters committing a horrible betrayal against the protagonist and all their villainous actions are out of spite and pettiness over the fact. While it is generally agreed that both characters' redemptions had their flaws, especially since both did vile things throughout the series, the debate is over which character's redemption was relatively done better. In Catra's case, supporters will point out hers was well done are notorious for being divisive and have received criticism for being rushed and ignore the scope of the severe damage they both caused]].
* Despite the major FandomRivalry between the shows, there are some fans of ''WesternAnimation/VoltronLegendaryDefender'' who actually do like this show, most notably
due to the fact that she was at least given parallels between Haggar and Shadow Weaver in terms of their sympathetic backstories before they went [[FaceHeelTurn from good to evil]] along with characteristic parallels between Coran of the opportunity reboot and SPOP's Sea Hawk, or Shiro and Scorpia.
* With ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'' as Luz and Amity are noted
to improve have similarities to Adora and Catra, with the latter having feelings of inadequacy, and having a prickly demeanor towards the protagonist, yet can’t bring herself to hate her. Plus, there’s some degree of LesYay between them. Interestingly, it’s worth noting that ND Stevenson’s wife Molly Ostertag is a staff writer for the show. Even ''more'' amusing, both shows had the lead couple (Catra and get much needed character development. Additionally, fans of Adora for ''She-Ra'' would observe and Amity and Luz for ''The Owl House'') dancing in prom with one of them wearing a tux '''and''' their dance together being the SignatureScene involving the OfficialCouple of the show! Both shows having big LGBT elements definitely helps.
* With ''WesternAnimation/KipoAndTheAgeOfWonderbeasts'', thanks to having very similar themes and style. It also helps
that Cassandra had absolutely no problem embracing evil the series was ending just as ''Kipo'' premiered and only redeemed that Kipo herself after Zhan Tiri deprived her of her power, thus she only became "good" again [[NominalHero because something bad happened shares a VA with Glimmer.
* Gets this a bit with ''WesternAnimation/{{Amphibia}}'', as both shows have a female protagonist in a magical land with a toxic ex-best friend serving the BigBad's right hand who is trying
to her personally]], ''not'' because of conquer said land.
** To
a moral dilemma, while Catra still cared about Adora deep down lesser extent, there's some viewers who see Anne and made the conscious choice to pull a HeroicSacrifice to save Adora after seeing just how badly she messed up. Fans of ''Tangled'' however, will typically point out how unhealthy it was for Catra to enter into a Sasha's relationship with Adora in the end because of how toxic and mentally unstable she has shown herself as somewhat similar to be much like Cassandra, and felt Cassandra and Rapunzel going their separate ways is a route that should've been taken by Catra and Adora]].Adora's.
