Lesbian Space Princess

The meme runs on two formats. The first is clip-and-shut reaction videos, where a TikToker plays the film's opening seconds, reacts in silence and dramatically closes the laptop, treating the premise as unwatchable1. The second is the 'Just This Once' fandom-truce edit, where posters cut footage of characters from rival animation communities teaming up, framing Lesbian Space Princess as the common enemy that finally paused the fandom wars4.

The jokes fixate on specific writing choices: the protagonist's home planet named Clitopolis, the antagonist faction called the Straight White Maliens, and the royal labrys weapon that drives the plot1. Critics online also latched onto the labrys imagery to accuse the film of TERF undertones, a reading the co-directors addressed in a November 2025 JoySauce interview by acknowledging awareness of the symbol's modern associations1. The pile-on ran alongside an unverified rumor that Netflix had swapped Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts and The Epic Tales of Captain Underpants for the film, which added fuel even after being debunked1.

Two templates dominate. The clip-and-close format typically opens with the film's introduction, cuts within seconds and ends with the poster physically shutting the device4. The 'Just This Once' template pairs a rival-fandom montage (commonly Hazbin Hotel, Steven Universe, Invincible or Friendship is Magic footage) with text framing Lesbian Space Princess as the shared enemy1.
