| Nope, I think that's pretty stupid for someone to think it's weird. my older bro and his friends introduced me to anime when I was a kid. they're probably in their late 20's now. I think it's fine, I plan on watching anime for the rest of my life. and also, anime have age ratings such as R+17 etc.. so obviously anime is made for any age audience |

What's wrong with your parents watching anime? My dad enjoys anime...in fact, he got me into Dragonball! You should be somewhat happy that they like that x) |
| I turn 25 this year. =P |
| I don't find people who are older than 25 watching anime weird but having them show me all of their posters and figurines of school girls showing their panties is. |
| I know people older than 25 who watch anime/read manga, and I think it's fine. |

| just another voice (28 y.o.) to add to the chorus. why would anyone give up something they thoroughly enjoy because it has a stigma to some ignorant people? i find it a bit weird to see 45 year old women with ho clothes acting 21 in the club. even there though, if you're not hurting anyone, who gives a damn? |
 |
| Kind of. Most of the anime and manga I've read and watched, even the seinen stuff, is pretty juvenile. |
| It's just taboo to be honest, society thinks that adults who watch anime are pedophiles or perverted or what not but they don't realize that some people grew up reading/watching anime/manga so it is just a part of their life. Nothing is wrong with it, and it surely doesn't matter what age you are. Albeit, anything overboard or extreme may not be necessarily be a great impression but that idea can be applied to everything. Too much of a good thing is bad! (but anime is <3) =]! |
     |
| No, not in the slightest. I'd actually be pretty jolly about it, plus i know people in that age category that do watch anime. |
| i never knew there was an age restriction on anime...I'm 29, married and have a son who I sometimes watch my anime with. I'll most likely watch anime till the day I die and I never let society's norm ever cut into what feels "right". If you get too bothered about what people think, what's the point of having a hobby? |
| No, Im only 18 but i can see myself watching anime for way longer then 25 |
| Yeah I guess anime is just like books to older folks. Whatever your hobby is as a kid, it sorta sticks with you. Even though the type you watch/read may change, you'll still watch/read. |
 |
| no. any one can enjoy anime there is no age limit. |

| No what they do in their household is their business and nobody else. |
| Nope, don't find it weird. I know some people over 25+ and watch anime. |
| If you went through your post and replaced "Anime" with "Live action tv/films"(Or books, or video games, or really any other medium) it would make the same amount of sense. Rather than go into a wall of text I am just going to ask a single question: Are live action fictional shows more real than fictional anime?(The question is a bit loaded.. But anyway) |
| Not at all. Why would I? Anime is for all ages just like movies and TV. |
| I'm 26 myself.... and I know people almost twice my age who watch anime. The only thing weird is that more people don't. |
 I am a banana. |
| i'm 28 and i still watch anime so why would i find it weird is someone older then 25+ watched anime It's not more weird then 25+ wathcing american cartoons |
| ....... |
SpidyDLuffy said: I wouldn't consider someone "weird" if someone older than me watched anime. I plan on watching anime till my death. ^ agreed |
|
| Nope. I go to anime conventions and I have met a lot of people older than me. Heck, it's an anime convention, everyone goes there because we all watch anime or read manga. |
| This is a little ageist. I'm 23 and I still watch anime all the time. I only started watching it a few years ago. Are you going to stop watching anime when you reach a certain age, OP? Seems a little ridiculous. |
 |
| its not weird at all , who said anime is just for kids lol |
| You must know your own personal reality, That way you will discover your ability. |
| I doubt the allure of large breasts and mindless violence will wane when I turn 25+. In fact I'll probably be such a loner that I all I do is patch anime in my mums basement, in my underpants, biscuit crumbs strewn everywhere, arms too lazy to itch my own crotch. Yep, as you can see I've got my life all planned out. |
| Heads I win. Tails you lose. |
| No, most people that don't watch anime might think it is weird. Just as some people believe playing videogames in your 20s is weird when in reality a large majority of people who play video games are of the age bracket 20-30. I'll still be watching it regardless of what people think |
 |
| I don't find anything weird about it. |
| I hardly find that weird. Quite frankly, I know I will be watching anime and reading manga until I'm old. |
| I wouldn't find it weird at all. The only thing I've found is that its more likely to find males over 25 still watching anime than females. Whenever I talk to a girl over 25 who used to watched anime she usually says she grew out of it. When I hear that it makes me sad :( |

Whenever I talk to a girl over 25 who used to watched anime she usually says she grew out of it. When I hear that it makes me sad :( Yes, same here! they shouldl've not said that. Stopping to watch Anime doesnt mean you're already mature. Many people always think that Anime is just a mere cartoons often or should be watched by kids only. But why cant they understand the big difference of the two. why would they try a kid to watch Cowboy Bebop, Fate/Stay Night and etc.,For sure the kid will get bored and doesnt care on that show. Unless you changed it to Spongebob or Ben 10, their eyes will be stunned on the t.v. for sure |
| Its not weird, Well for me watching Anime is for intelligent people. Di lang kasi naiintindihan ng ibang tao ang istorya kaya di sila nanunuod mas gusto nila mga Shrek and Spongebob mga ganung level lang ba! hehe -peace |
| Anyone that watches anime isn't 'weird' so I don't see why anyone 25 years old or older still watching it is weird. |
 |
| No, I don't. Two of my older brothers watch Anime, one of them is into his 30s and he still watches it. He doesn't watch it often but he still has an interest in it. |
| I don't think it's weird . I planned to watch anime and read manga till my death lol . |

Captain-Z said: Iisan-kun said: Nope. I personally believe anime has more artistic value than the vast majority of the media that airs in North America these days it. You are s******** me right? While I get where you going with that. You act like most of what airs today in North America does have artistic value. |

| i have some friends that watch it. i'm 30 married and have two kids. i like anime. i like movie and music too. from the thread title i would assume that it would be weird if someone older than 25 did anything?....i enjoy entertainment regardless if it's animated live action or whatever. |
| FOR THE RECORD: I DON'T SUPPORT THE TROOPS! |
| I don't know anyone of the age 25+ in real life but I don't really think it's weird |
 |
| nope. i'll probably still be watching anime then too. |
| hmm nope I dont see it as beign weird to watch anime if ur older than 25. Alot of anime have very good story lines compared to alot of the TV that is mostly reruns or just odd. Judging by the conventions I've been to I'd say its not really uncommon ^_^ Im probably gonna still be watching anime when I am that old as well. |
 |
| it's not as wierd as a kid watching porn |
| Maybe 25 no, but 40 yes if she/he love things for teens or less. I mean, when we'll be 40 it will be wierd if we watch.... What series for children/teens there? You can think of one yourself. |
