| School Days was pretty grueling to watch. I noticed you also had Hellsing on that list but not Hellsing Ultimate. Try the ova series, episode 2 was the equivalent to a scarlet painted splash mountain :]]] - Durarara was pretty mature, but it runs its course on a more psychological note. - Welcome to the NHK, in my opinion, is the adult approach to silly humor. - Death Note is quite mature itself in plot and characters. Requires a lot of thinking. - The Garden of Sinners series. A 7 piece movie series, and it requires a lot of paying attention. But it mixes in aspects such as progressive homicide and philosophical approaches to life. - Nabari No Ou was, I admit, originally for teenagers, but I think you'd like it. It's very nonchalant. - Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann: Everybody loves this series. - Bakemonogatari: An adult's approach to comedy and romance (my opinion). |

| Air Gear, mature, oh you. ◕ ◡ ◕ Try (if you haven't already seen them): Darker than BLACK Denpateki na Kanojo Ga-Rei -Zero- Mnemosyne - Mnemosyne no Musume-tachi Mouryou no Hako Phantom ~Requiem for the Phantom~ |
| Also try Kaiji, Death Note and Code Geass. And maybe even Gundam00. Baccano! and Durarara!! are by the same creator and they have some similarities in plot development but you should try it. |

| I'd guess Mnemosyne goes up there, to this day i don;t realize how it isn't hentai from all the innuendo, and excessive violence is practically hentai worthy. Baccano!, Higurashi, and Umineko can probably fit. |

| Moved to the recommendations board. I can't help but laugh at half the anime mentioned here as "mature" but hey, whatever floats your boat. To me, a good example of a mature anime are those aimed at seinen/josei demographic like Monster and Aoi Bungaku (Blue Literature). |

| Seconding Monster and Aoi bungaku. And check out Kemonozume as well. |

Kino Journey (pg-13) La Maison en Petit Cube (G) Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 (pg-13) Seconding this sentiment. They may not be rated R but they are not kid-friendly. Some that are R are Dentpateki na Kanojo FMA: Brotherhood Ergo Proxy Ghost in the Shell: SAC Tetsuwan Birdy Decode (the first season is PG-13, the second R) And totally thirding Monster |

For this site, you have R and you have PG-13. No 15+ ratings. |

Which means that while there are probably some anime that would fall into that category of above PG-13 and below R, they don't have a rating for that. |

The point was that there are mature, good anime that are rated PG-13... and some lower.... on this site. |

| you do realize the more age ratings the more understanding what category of matured level is. Being restricted by less ratings makes it worst then having more ratings due to fact you will not know if this is just some childish anime/movie or it will be matured so with more ratings you def know that its for older people its simple as that other wise its a guessing game and tbh no one wants be guessing if this anime/movie is crap it waste peoples time trying figure out whats worth watching whats not. |

| Regardless of how anyone sees age ratings (and the lack of), that doesn't change the fact that you're stuck with the American ratings on this site. And I'm not sure that you realize this, but Americans don't rate based on percieved 'childishness', but on content such as sexual themes and language- there can be mature anime that don't have any swearing or sex, and those automatically get a lower age rating. The thing is, everyone has different tastes. So what may be brilliant to me might be crap to you. And vice-versa. There are R-rated anime out there that are gawd-awful. The rating has nothing to do with quality. Besides, this does have a way to tell if a lot of people liked it- there's a part on the anime page that shows what the average score of an anime is, and shows how many people have rated it. And you should be able to tell what shows you're more likely to enjoy based on personal tastes- there's a mature PG-13 anime that deals with politics and space. If you enjoyed politics and space, you'd enjoy that anime. |

| What hasn't been mentioned yet: (Or i overread it) Kaiji Ghost in the Shell Michiko to Hatchin Berserk Basilisk Trigun |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| being PG13 does not tickle my fancy a PG13 anime thats matured would be awful no way in earth u be able see someone get there head riped off let alone anything sexual or language so again i state the more ratings the more understanding i don't feel that any PG13 stuff is matured for me becoz i have grown up i have realized theses typs of anime and movies are design to attract the younger people a family movie will come under that now days you see familys rent out a PG13 movie for there child and a M to R rated movie for there self's the reason why we have a age rating system is to make sure kids are not watching R18 stuff so again i state it clear that TRUE reason behind it was fact people are aware of content that will be shown placeing a PG anime/movie to a younger person will understand the storyline and its content so it is not just about what content either also how story is told some are more harder then others a PG film is easy to follow through i never once seen a PG film that wasnt easy to get or understand.. |

| So OP watch anime to see 2D characters getting beat up, amputated, abused and mentally scarred? Watch Angel Beats! It got some very gruesome shit in there, and they actually make it funny... I'm not even joking. (and it's PG-13) |

You have a poor dude who got terrorize by very cute girls to the point of insanity, it's pretty straight forward, I mean, it's not rocket science... isn't that all you wanted anyways? Seeing 2D character get scarred/abuse bad... Blood, gore, horror? |
