Subaru is a rare case of proper portrayal of rich character

1) Her family is rich but not like "filthy rich"
2) She actually acknowledges her status & do not hesitate to show it (unlike certain Tsumugi from 10 years ago, for example), but also she does not flaunt it.
3) She has other cool both positive & negative traits, unrelated to stereotypical "rich kid things"
4) Does not consume motor oil in bulk & do not steal other people's panties unlike certain other Subarus :)

Basically you understand that should her family lose the money one day she will not be lost as her family being rich is a compliment to her personality, not the defining trait.

so true I haven't thought about it until know but now that you pointed it out I realize this is like the first time ever I read about a "rich kid" with none of the typical stereoptypes

I like the point you raise here, it’s a nice way to show a girl with substantial financial clout who isn’t spoilt by it at all. But when you say unlike Tsumugi, I assume you mean Kotobuki san from 15 years ago? I thought she was a brilliant character with great humility despite the family’s obvious fortune. For a comparison, look at Kokoro Tsurumaki as an example of unashamed wealth. She has concerts set up at a whim, stages built in streets, hires out mansions, islands and boats to play on, and her family have a dedicated team of supporters in suits making her every wish come true. But she’s still adorable and not mean to her schoolmates, I guess all Japanese rich girls are nice!

The closest we got to a more stereotypical potrayal of a rich girl was when grandma awa came to visit 🤭

I would also like to highlight another anime from the same season with a "rich girl that doesn't act like a stereotypical rich girl" Tsutsui Mari from SasaKoi (the one with the troubled production) though I guess she does have an excessive manor with servants
