Alternative anime to Demon Slayer suitable for 9 year old? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

My daughter has picked up an interest in Demon Slayer, however having watched a little I think it's too violent/mature.

I'd love to foster her interest in these things, by trying out an alternative anime that hits similar notes while being more age apropriate.

Any recommendations?

Any Studio Ghibli movie seems to be age appropriate and has a female protagonist featured in most: Princess Mononoke, Kiki's Delivery Service, Howl's Moving Castle, Totoro, Spirited Away, Ponyo

I get what you’re trying to say but to be fair Mononoke opens with Ashitaka shooting off a dudes arms with an arrow.
