The sexuality of the spectacled brains of the group has actually been validated in newly-released clips from Trick or Treat Scooby Doo! In one scene, which has gone viral online, Velma satisfies outfit designer Coco Diablo for the very first time. When she lays eyes on her, impressive music plays in the background and text turns up on-screen that explains her “incredible glasses,” in addition to other favorable characteristics like how she’s “good with animals,” “obviously brilliant” and has “an amazing turtleneck.”
To all this, Velma undoubtedly states her signature catchphrase, “Jinkies!” As she does so, she’s undoubtedly smitten as her glasses mist up and her cheeks redden.
In another scene, Velma informs Daphne that she’s “crushing big time.” In a 3rd, she smiles happily after Coco calls her “the cute one.”
Fans have actually been thrilled about this advancement, with individuals composing homages like “LET’S GO LESBIANS” and “OMG LESBIAN VELMA FINALLY CANON CANON IN THE MOVIES LETS GOOOOOO” onTwitter But nobody is more delighted than Hayley Kiyoko, who played Velma in the 2009 made-for-television movie Scooby Doo! The Mystery Begins and its 2010 follow up Scooby Doo! Curse of the Lake Monster
