When people say that anime is for little kids

Recommended Posts

Whenever someone says that any piece of entertainment (that isn't marketed toward kids, made specifically for them or is an educational show) is for little kids only makes me want to suck the ignorance out of them and show examples that are clearly the opposite.

 

 

It's the same as someone saying that animated movies and cartoons are for children.

Oh boy, I've seen some pretty messed up anime shows, and I'll tell you that they are not for kids. I don't hate or despise anime, but it just doesn't grab and keep my attention like it does with some people.

Heck, I've seen some Pokémon episodes that were a little messed up.

"Anime is for kids"

 

Try watching One Piece, Naruto, Bleach, Fairy Tail, Attack on Titan, Akame ga Kill, or Berserk. Then come back and tell me it's still for kids. Also don't watch Boku no Pico

 

 

"Anime is for kids"

 

Akira, corpse Party, Elfin lied, Hellsing, and Trinity Blood would like to speak with you

 

 

Or that moment your friends says Anime sucks while he/she only watched one Anime episode of one show so that means all Anime are the same and suck -__-

 

''Anime is for kids''

Ever watched Death Note dear sir madam.

 

Fullmetal Alchemist, Durarara!!, Devil May Cry, SAO... (altho I'm well above adult age and SAO was still Too Much For Me in that second arc, soooo...)

That's because they are ignorant little biggots who have nothing else to do but wallow in the pity of their dull existance.

Seriously I can't stand people who are like that. Just shut the firetruck up and mind your own buisness. I honestly haven't been watching much anime (only 'kiddy' anime I guess) but if someone wants to watch anime I don't give a shit. Good for you to watch what you like.

Another, K-Project, Angel Beats, Blood Lad along with the others people have mentioned are not for kids.

Kill la Kill and Tokyo Ghoul would like a word with these vile things called "people" who "say the anime is for little kids."

Kill la Kill is a great example, if you catch my drift ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I'd recommend ignoring that, if you don't like gore

The storyline gets to me way too much. Whenever I watch it everything else in life doesn't seem to matter for like 2 weeks.

There are reasons why I do not let my 11 year old sister watch a lot of anime. I will not censor myself and list those reasons now.

 

What is called "fanservice", or the oversexulization of female or even male characters. This is a reason I don't watch so much "mainstream" anime because it is full of it!! Whether it is boob jokes or what, it's disgusting and just degrades both female and male genders...but mainly female genders.

 

Gore, Violence, Blood, etc. Now I watch Kuroshitsuji, and I have to admit, there are very very dark themes and there is a reason I will not let my 11 year old sister watch it. There are moments sometimes just in the manga in which I say "oh my god don't let my little sisters see this" because its horrible! Sebastian rips the heart right out of a man's body...AND IT WAS ANIMATED...censored, but still disgusting.

You really gotta watch out for blood, gore, and violence because you don't know when a happy little day in anime will end in a bloody fist fight....or when a trip on a ship ends up in a zombie massacre or something like that!

 

Language- now I know it's something not usually that bad in anime, but there have been anime I have watched with my little sister in the room and it says something and I say "I hope they didn't read that". One character said something while I was watching anime, my dad kind of peeking over it over my shoulder, and it said something, and my dad was like "what the hell did that just say" because it was so bad.

 

There are a lot more issues I have not even gone to the extent of expressing, but these are some main reasons.

To be honest I feel that anime is geared more toward mature audiences than for kids. There may be some for kids, but I have seen a good number of very adult-themed anime that I would not want my child watching. Neko really nailed it well in her descriptions. I think some people are ignorant and assume that anything animated is for kids, but I seriously don't believe that is the case for anime, and I don't really think that the Japanese do, either.

Honestly here's the thing, even if anime WAS for little kids (which it obviously isn't) who the firetruck cares either way.

I myself watch mainly 'kid' anime, but that's no ones firetrucking buisness. Let me do me. I pay my taxes, I go to work, therefore no one has the right to talk shit what I want to do with myself. (Even if you don't pay taxes or whatever or work, no one shouldn't talk shit)

The thing is, a lot of people have just dull lives, where all they want to watch is the news and stupid bullshit like that. All they see is black and white, getting up in the morning, going to a job that they hate and doing the same thing over and over again day in and day out. They just think that to be an 'adult' you have to be miserable and do 'gown up' things like sit in an office all firetrucking day. What pisses me off even more is when people talk shit when all they do is watch even worse shit like these stupid reality shows. Honestly they're the ones that really need to get a life.!

And I'm not saying they can't hate anime. Don't get me wrong, there is a LOT of anime I can't stand. Even bringing it up just makes me like gag. But if someone else watches it that's none of my firetrucking buisness. Sure if my best friend loves it I'll be like "omg why do you like it" but I'm not gonna talk shit just because my best friend likes it. And I'm not gonna shit on what my best friend likes either. I just say 'it's not my cup of tea' and move on.

Ugh, I'm like rambling on now. It's just that this topic pisses me off soooooo much I can't help but go off on this stupidity.

So what if you rambled? You spoke the truth. No one should talk shit about other people's passions, yet it happens. That's the irritating part.
