@menherahair @lich combatting the stigma requires doing more than just aping how anime does stuff, sure they made a slice of life with cartoon horses, it's still about cartoon horses and the association with little girls, it's not like they made something actually epic featuring said cartoon horses that could elevate it beyond being a show for little girls, but it's just a slice of life like every other show for little girls and as a result it's not combatting anything
