| Your mom enters your room and ask you to watch something with her. Obviously you accept, she's after all your mother, but what would you watch with her? Personally I have three possible routes, I can either pick a silly RomCom like Golden Days, Chuunibyou, Kaguya-sama Maid-sama or something similar, or I can pick a more serious show like Clannad, Your Lie in April or something like that, or my third option would be to pick a Shoujo/Josei anime like Fruits Basket, Ore Monogatari, Kiss him not me or something in that direction. I'm going with quite safe bets, something I know for sure she'd enjoy, she have rather simple taste. What would you pick to watch together with your mother if she'd ask? And why would you pick that? |
 |
| I always thought about watching Violet Evergarden with her. I don't know why lol |
 |
| Kimi no Na wa. Shingeki no Kyojin Spirited Away Hotaru no Haka I'd start with this and gradually move onto the weeb shit |
 I said keep your hands on the table |
| I watched Monogatari with my little sister, after the toothbrush scene, we had to stop seeing each other for some days. My mother, I would show her Yuru Camp. |
| If you're a fanboy, please don't waste my time. Watch more movies, please. Perhaps, this is hell. |
| You can't go wrong with an iyashikei, so maybe Aria or K-On |
    beep boop bop pow |
| Only the son of satan could dare to do something like watching anime with mother |
 |
| It will never happen, but I would watch with her one of the old movies that resemble more to the a TV films she like than an anime in general, like Only Yesterday, Omoide no Marnie or maybe series like Funa wo Amu, Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu. |
 |
| I would turn her into a woman of culture by showing her JoJo and Free. Or why not go completely wild with Okaasan online |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| My mom would sometimes be in my room when I would watch Dragon Ball Z as a kid. Does that count XD? |
 |
| Well my mother likes many genres and kinds of stories. If she asked me to watch some anime with her I would definitely choose some anime that respects both itself and the audience. Depending on the mood and what she would like to see at the moment I could watch with her pretty much anything directed by directors such as Oshii, Hosoda, Shinkai, Miyazaki, Kon, etc. So stuff like Ghost in the Shell, Ghibli films, Your Name, Perfect Blue, etc. Same criteria applies to TV shows. So things like Stand Alone Complex, Aria, Seirei no Moribito, Sangatsu no Lion, Rakugo, Mushishi, Erin, Cowboy Bebop, Fullmetal Alchemist, Attack on Titan (actually managed to watch AoT with her), Legend of the Galactic Heroes, etc. |
| Back in my high school days when I still lived with the family my mom sat through all of Death Note and Monster with me. She doesn't really like anime, but for whatever reason those two resonated with her. I've shown her a few films like A Silent Voice, Tokyo Godfathers, and some of the Ghibli ones, but that's about it. If I was specifically asked now though it would have to have the right mood. Probably something that isn't "kiddish", as she wouldn't care for that. It also would have to not be a comedy, as she thinks anime humor is bad. I would probably pick something like Violet Evergarden, Kids on the Slope, or Rakugo Shinjuu. Something mature that has lots to take away from it, but something simple enough for her to understand. |
 "They escaped the weight of darkness, to forge a path into the marrow of the spirit. They chose to drown in a deeper vacancy, an emptiness that quells the null, a pool for the forgotten..." |
| dont, but if I had no choice probably a Ghibli movie |
| probably a comedy or sports anime devoid of cry porn if it ever does happen. i'm not about to watch some emotional sappy film with my mom at 21 years of age. |
| Probably a crime drama like Monster. |
 |
| Aaah, although the setting is kind of different, i did watch an anime with my mom. It was when i'm re-watching one of Ghibli movies (i think it was either Princess Mononoke or Spirited Away.. i forgot) on the tv in the living room. My mom came and just asked stuffs on what's happening there. Although she fell asleep midway XD So if she asked herself, i will probably watch another Ghibli movies again. |

| A certain person lurking here |
| Attack on Titan (very minor spoilers ahead). As a matter of fact, she did (reluctantly) watch most episodes of Season 1 with me. Meaning, she got to experience the iconic titan sex between Annie and Eren in its absolute glory. Never asked her what she thought of it (and the fact that her son was stargazing over a bunch of naked giants running around with no shame whatsoever) because I was too embarrassed. |

| I actually got into anime as a kid because I would sneak downstairs unable to sleep and find my mom watching Inuyasha past my bed time lol I began watching that with her. Fast forward 15 years and we watched Hunter x hunter, my hero academia, demon slayer and attack on titan together! |
 |
| I don't know! I've never watched a single anime with her but I want to try. I'm thinking SnK most likely. |
| Aah I usually don't watch bt recently watching kumo Desu ka with my mom sometimes lol |
| I never watched that mom isekai, but I think it's a good pick |
| Imagine how boring this world would be without Japan - a comment at youtube |
| Redo of a Healer. She would be proud of me... |
 |
| okaa-san online or yesterday wo utatte, fits exactly in her zone, that or any shitty romcom with lots of fake drama but with adult characters |
    |
| My mom watched Grave of the Fireflies with me one night and genuinely considered it one of the best films she's ever seen. |

| Either One Piece or JJB. I doubt a situation like this would happen, and Idk whether i want it too or not. |

So in a way it was thanks to your mom that you discovered anime in the first place. |

| That would never happen but I would show my mom a rom com like Horimiya. I won't show her Kaguya sama because it has some heavy sexual themes. |

| I cannot imagine watching anime with my mom |
 |
| I've only watched Ponyo and Shin Chan with my parents when I was little. Other than that, I don't think my parents would want to watch the other stuff I have watched. |
 |
| I watched Akira with my mom I think was more scared how nothing fazed her about the movie lol and then afterwards she said "I think I learned more about you today huh?" she said jokingly |
 |
| Probably would never happen because my mom really doesn't like anime. Buuuut maybe I could get her to watch the Godzilla Trilogy, because we've watched Godzilla movies together before, but I don't really wanna watch the Godzilla Trilogy ever again sooo...... |

| I feel like she would like Nana. I haven't seen it, but I feel like it would be her type of show. She could also maybe like Death Note. I don't really know what she would like because she is so much different person than me. Like she loves punk and wears punk fashion. That's probably her biggest interest. Not that I would ever imagine her watching anime. |
 |
| Euphoria. To assert dominance. Then she won't ever fucking barge into your room. |
 |
| I watch alot of anime with my mom, so I guess in this scenario I'd choose one of her current favorites. So it'd be out of Hunter X Hunter, Attack On Titan, Konosuba, The Promised Neverland, and Shield Hero. |
| My mom doesn't watch anime or cartoon, so probably nothing? |
| Something really similar to this actually did happen to me earlier this year, and if I had to pick just one thing, it would be Violet Evergarden. Out of the 40ish anime my mom has seen so far, it's one of her absolute favorites. She was blown away by the animation, and every episode easily kept her attention. Plus, it has a pretty good dub, which is the only thing my mom was willing to watch at first (though she switched over to subs pretty quickly). She keeps asking me when the new movie is going to be subtitled. It's just a really solid show. She wasn't willing to try a full TV series at first though, since that was too much of a commitment for something she might not even like, so I went with a movie, A Silent Voice. She loved it, and was crying by the end. We did a few more movies before moving on to a series, and some of her early favorites were Wolf Children, I Want to Eat Your Pancreas, and Your Name. When she was ready to watch a TV series, Erased, Tokyo Magnitude 8.0, and Violet Evergarden were some of the first she watched. She loved all of these. Now she's watching a little bit of everything, from all genres. I think the last few she finished were Kaguya-sama, FMA Brotherhood, and Yuru Camp, all of which she really liked. |

| "不幸だ!" - Kamijou Touma Check out my anime list by clicking here (it's public now).  |
| We have watched: - Death Note - Evangelion - Kimetsu no Yaiba - The promised neverland - Boku dake ga inai machi - Steins; gate - Parasyte - Vinland Saga - Monster Right now she is watching Psycho-Pass. |
| I know my mum doesn't like Ghibli movies, so they're out. She's not a fan of animation in general, but if I had to, I'd probably go with something gothic or horror. Maybe Berserk, she might like that. |
