| Never seen an anime where they show girls having periods why is that? |
| You should watch Onimai, cause that's the first thing which comes to my mind. |
Brunilde said: Because people don't want to see it👍 But they have no problem watching men fight with semen |
| I think that one scene in Evangelion with Asuka comes to mind. Also mentioned in Galko-chan, Nana, and Only Yesterday. There's a good amount of things that mention periods when I think about it haha. I guess you're just watching the wrong anime if you haven't seen it at least once by now. |

Post-pubescent and mature to adult Anime girls do have menstruation blood just like any normal female human being, it's just not shown for the viewers consideration, consideration and decency. |
CosmicWhore said: LOLBrunilde said: Because people don't want to see it👍 But they have no problem watching men fight with semen That's Golden Kamuy? It looks kinda like jojo! |
 |
| Yuma Suzuki has her period twice in JOSHIKOUSEI: GIRL'S HIGH, they actually make quite a big deal about it and even showed menstrual blood on her hand for an extra gross factor. Maybe it's a taboo thing to not show or talk about it in Anime often...idk |
 |
| Golden Kamuy is basically Jojo with less weird outfits and no supernatural elements. |
| There is an episode in Berserk where they show Casca being on her period, and it affecting her performance in battle. |

 "You fought to the end. You survived. That's why you're here now. I think that's something you should be more proud of." - Vladilena Milizé |
| Good point. Haven't actually seen periods in anime apart from Berserk. |
| same can be said why they for the most part dont show every single time anime characters peeing or having a shit every single time they need to or doing it. especially urinating, they dont need to show 6 times a day of them doing so. |
| I've seen it mentioned before but I can't site any specific examples. |
 |
| In Magical Girl Site, Aya tells her brother not to beat her so much or she won't get her period. This was the first thing that came to my mind. But I don't think it is needed to be mentioned unless it affects the plot in some way. Just like taking a dump or pissing. |
 |
| Probably because they're drawings, you want to se them take a shit as well? Weirdo |
| Nobody wants to see the bleeding. Having said that, in 12-sai, there’s a mention of period, and the girl gets made fun of by the 12-year old male students. |
| You can buy lossless digital music from your favorite Japanese artists on https://ototoy.jp/. The songs are all DRM-free and you can re-download your purchased albums as you wish. Show your support to your favorite artist if you can! ps. if you are looking for Japanese albums, you have to search it in Japanese (not romaji). Just copy and paste the name. For those who want to learn Japanese through anime Resources for learning the language |
| For the same reason they don't have in most media of all the ages. It only starts to be moderately commonly mentioned in 20th century literature; before that, the exceptions are few and far between. Apart from other examples mentioned above, girls' period is a topic in a pool episode of Takagi-san. |
 |
| It's generally not relevant to portray |
This post is brought to you by your local transfem gamer goblin. Will not tolerate bigotry and will fight against "anti-woke" sentiment to make the anime community a safer place.  |
| I have read a hentai where that was a relevant plot point. |
 |
| Pretty sure they do, it just doesn't make sense to show it on screen. Portraying something as mundane as that (generally) wouldn't supplement the story. Same reason why animes generally don't show people taking dumps. |
 |
Oldkight said: That actually happened in the first episode of Heavenly Delusion. They don't show them taking a dump either. Maybe people don't have an interest in watching normal bodily functions. |
|
| Whats period ? Do u think girl like werewolf or what ? If so then here u are lollll |
 |
| Anime girls do have periods it's just not something that is brought up a lot, same with normal life. Also I've seen more anime show girls on there period then I have with other forms of media - berserk, galko chan, elfen lied, etc. |
| The questions people ask around here I swear to god |
 |
| You're 7 years too late to be asking this question. Please check old threads for answers next time. https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1483788&show=0 |
| その目だれの目？ |
| There is in Akatsuki no Yona manga. Forgot what chapter it is |
| That's why Onimai is the best show of 2023 |
 |
| Because having periods is realistic and we can't let our perfect anime waifus be like that. Now, seriously speaking, there are a couple of anime that does in fact show and mention girls on their periods like Asuka from Evangelion, Mahiro from Onimai and Casca from Berserk. |
| Omoide Poroporo has a whole portion of it in the film. It's actually interesting since it was based off the mangaka experiences in the 60's and these girls are 10 years old which is fairly on the early side of getting it. I had listened to a podcast a while back talking about Kiki's Delivery Service. The section where Kiki gets sick and how it's kind of transitioned and brought up kind of insinuates that she got her first period. It's very subtle but I think it makes sense since it is a coming of age narrative and she has all these emotional waves of hating herself and upset with her femininity. Oldkight said: They don't show them taking a dump either. Maybe people don't have an interest in watching normal bodily functions. As funny as this is in a sense. Women having their period, especially teen girls which anime tends to focus on. Getting or navigating it is an experience. I'm not saying I specifically need to see it but it is odd how series even those written by female mangaka don't have it all that often. |
 |
| Well you have 17 anime watched lol 🤣 come on the reason why you haven’t seen it ever being said it’s cause you literally barely watched any anime whatsoever also it’s common decency not to talk about it to much so most shows don’t also 90% of shows are for 13 yo and mainly boys so it’s not really in their stack of interest to bring that up. |
 |
| You should definitely watch Oniichan wa Oshimai! |
 |
| Same reason you usually never see characters coughing unless they're dying of a deadly disease. If it isn't relevant, don't include it. |
| In the end, all girls are like the rose bride |
| "Why anime girls don't have periods?" They have or don't have periods when this is convenient for the plot. |
| There are a lot of things anime characters don't have, since they are mostly aimed towards a younger audience that don't care for these kinds of realism. In the case of periods, it also isn't relevant to most plots (hence isn't a part of most Hollywood movies either). |

CosmicWhore said: Never seen an anime where they show girls having periods why is that? You just need to watch more anime. There certainly are examples out there. |
| "Why anime girls don't have periods?" It's probably because police stole their rights to have one |
 |
| One other example of why anime girls are just better than 3D ones. |

| Shion no Ou has a very significant scene where a girl gets their first menstrual cycle and flips out. |
 |
| 99% of the time periods are not relevant to the plot exception is onimai. also what's the use of showing a basic normal bodily function in anime? |
 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |

| Naisho no Tsubomi is about this sort of thing. There's also a brief scene in Only Yesterday where the main character has a flashback to school and learning about periods. |
