We liked both series.

It reminds me of the Tamagotchis- not sure if you remember those. My kids loved them. They were small "pets" that you had to take care of- or they died. And I thought it was a good experience for my kids- even if the "pets" weren't real, my kids emotions for them were, and their care was real.

Practicing cruelty, even on non-feeling entities, reinforces the pathways of cruelty in the brain- and a strengthened pathway is a strengthened pathway- it doesn't really matter how it was strengthened.
