I don't mean to sound incendiary but I don't think I've ever seen ANYONE frame this game as a "just for girls" experience. How "legitimate" you feel it is as a product is very much up to you, and I've seen it recommended to female gamers more readily than OTHER titles on the Switch, but idk. I feel like getting offended about this being the "slop girls get" is really reductive and unfair :/

Being a guy who grew up with two gamer sisters I very much recognize that instinct to want better content for girls in the field, and you don't have to like this one game, I just don't know if I like this framing of it. Especially since girl gamers have so many amazing options on Switch from series that are popular with that demographic; Hades, Danganronpa, Persona 5, Kingdom Hearts(ish,) Pokémon Animal Crossing, etc.

Just my two cents tho
