Low level violence
This series contains low level cartoon violence and action, including fighting and risk of danger.
Moon Girl invents weapons like mechanical boxing gloves and a bubble blaster, but no real weapons like guns or swords are used.
Villains threaten the heroes, but the heroes always find their way out of danger and the villains are clearly shown as in the wrong for their actions.
A child at a girl’s school bullies her and teases her for being smart. She also experiences online “trolling” which involves someone using the line “a can of whoop your –” that cuts off.
