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?

I've only read the manga, but I found Dr Stone to be really misogynistic, in a low-key but pervasive way. Nearly all the female characters (especially in the first half) are vapid and highly sexualized. Maybe the anime is better? MHA's female characters are also overly sexualized, but at least they're as well-developed as the male characters.

Also to be clear, Cells at Work: Code Black is a spin-off which is NOT age appropriate (albeit the superior series IMO).
