Yesterday, Dreamworks and Netflix debuted the first look at She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, and it looks like it made quite an impression online.

The animated series follows Adora (Aimee Carrero), an orphan girl who finds a magic sword that gives her the ability to turn into the magical princess She-Ra. The series, which is created by Lumberjanes‘ Noelle Stevenson, provides a sort of redesign for Adora and her friends — including giving the She-Ra costume updated features and a pair of shorts.
The first-look photos earned a bit of a backlash when they first debuted, with some (mostly male) people arguing that the new She-Ra costume isn’t feminine or revealing enough. Thankfully, quite a few fans have come to the series’ defense, clapping back at the sexist tweets in an array of different ways — including some pretty awesome fanart. Here are just a few of our favorites.

Winning People Over
A super-fast picture to celebrate @DreamWorksSheRa . I wasn’t around to watch an old cartoon, but I enjoy minimalistic animation style and really like her current look way more than the old one! #SheRa pic.twitter.com/mh5A53ySyD

As someone that was obsessed with the show as a kid (I had the cape, sword, the dolls, including the Pegasus), I really love the new design. She’s so bad ass and cute! pic.twitter.com/yIUInr2zSQ
Truly Awesome
She-Ra sketch, based on the awesome design from the upcoming @netflix series by @Gingerhazing. I based She-Ra’s look on actress Meg Donnelly. #shera #fanart pic.twitter.com/jzVNHSTbTv
