Ananda is a character from the 1983 cartoon series He-Man and the Masters of the Universe.
The respected leader of the male populace in the City of Arcadia, Ananda lived in a society where all the males worked in the mines and held no value to the ruling Queen Sumana. Despite her mistreatment of the males, the queen held a less-than-subtle affection for Ananda, and after the city was saved and the men were finally permitted to live in equality alongside the women, Ananda was crowned King of Arcadia and ruled alongside Sumana..
