    Not really, but I won't argue that it isn't one of the best animated series of this decade. Aside from the obvious stuff like Adventure Time, Gravity Falls, Regular Show, Rick and Morty, Steven Universe, Korra, Young Justice, etc., there's also stuff like Voltron: Legendary Defender, Milo Murphy's Law, and Transformers Prime. And that's just Western cartoons; One-Punch Man, Kill la Kill, the JoJo anime, and many other anime are pretty damn good as well.

    However, there's definitely a case to be made for it being the best cartoon FOR LITTLE GIRLS of the decade; sure, we've had stuff like Sailor Moon, Totally Spies, and the original Powerpuff Girls, but those were running before 2010. We're talking about the current decade here, and that's what we're focusing on.

    I would easily say it's the best of this decade. I don't really like that many newer cartoons. Most of the stuff I like is much older ('80s and '90s).

    I also think MLP is the best 2010s cartoon.

    It's a damn good candidate for the best kids cartoon this decade that's still going. It's easy to praise something like Gravity Falls, which ended before it even had a semblance of a chance to go downhill, as the best, but keep in mind that GF didn't have a large chunk of its original creative team leave, nor was it obligated to keep going to market toys. :trixieftw:

    As far as shows meant for kids, I'd say it's up there. Broaden the spectrum any further than that, and it'd probably fall short of Rick and Morty or the 5th season of Samurai Jack.
