I still think the adaptation is good, but it's the material that wasn't very good from the start for me. As I said if you don't like stories like that don't bother with it, everyone has a different taste, but people bash TG mainly because of it's pathetic anime adaptation. Oh, but I did want to bother with it. Because I liked a story that dealt with the same themes and even though it was a lot rougher in writing, it actually worked for me (Kiseijuu). That's why I had a glimmer of hope for this, lol. As for everyone bashing the very adaptation... I'm at a loss of words for some reason. |

Kiseiju had an awesome adaptation that's why nobody makes fun of it. I also liked Parasyte (The anime version). The problem is that TG manga can be too shounen-y for some people. Maybe that's why you didn't like it? |

Certain plot points revealed later in the story seemed out of nowhere (the identity of the One-Eyed Owl, the Clowns and what not...)... There's a lot more to it, but this isn't the thread for it, lol. |

The Clowns - Typical backstabbing bastards(trope/cliche used in many mediums). Not to mention that it was mentioned that Arima fought Uta and we all know that at some point Arima was in that ward to eradicate the clown gang. I used to know one film critic who hated too many characters in movies. I guess you are one of those people and judging from your list you don't like Durarara as much as others. And I do agree that we are derailing the thread. |

| Wow, people are surprised a person watches Game of Thrones with their mom, I watch it with both my parents and tons of American shows that have sex scenes including most recently The Affair which is still airing here. Lol. |

Zer01 said: I've seen High School of the Dead with my parents. It was fun, we had a lot of good laughs and enjoyed ourselves That's pretty good, I'd be border line embarrassed to watch it with them with all that fanservice flying everywhere haha. |
| My parents have probably caught an episode or two of Pokemon with me while I was growing up, but nothing now. |
| Never seen any anime with my parents, well maybe cardcaptor sakura with my mom when i was younger like a decde ago |

Lol. I'm not surprised. My older sister watches Game of Thrones with my Mom. I just find it personally uncomfortable to watch sex scenes with other people, especially family members. Might as well watch porn |
 |
| I watched FMA:B with my mom, she liked it. |
| Detective Conan! They liked it :D |
  |
| A few weeks ago my mom actually asked me to show her some anime because she was curious what it was like. I showed her a couple episodes of Your Lie in April, and she wanted to watch the whole show, I was pretty surprised. My dad even joined us and we finished the series within about a week, they loved it. My mom even wanted to marathon the last ~8 episodes in one night but my dad didn't have time. Started watching Hanasaku Iroha with them recently but not sure if they will like it as much. |
 |
| LOL what, ill watch anime with my kids for sure. Whenever I have kids |
| Watched 5cm Per Second with my mum a few years ago. It wasn't anything special. She enjoyed it. That's it. No need to make a big song and dance. |

I saw it with my father as well. We enjoyed it. He saw up to the end of the Frieza arc of Dragon Ball Kai with me as well. |
| While watching any anime in the living room, my dad would always pop in and say "do something meaningful with your life son." He then takes the remote and change it to Better Homes and Garden. As with my mom and sister, they couldn't care less what I watch. |
| I can see watching like... Cowboy Bebop with my parents, maybe. I think they'd like it. |

Kruszer said: Mother likes: Ghibli films Moribito: Guardian of the Spirit Haibane Renmei Cowboy Bebop Space Battleship Yamato 2199 Time of Eve: The Movie Father likes: Ghibli films Cowboy Bebop Ergo Proxy RahXephon Galaxy Railways Ghost in the Shell Your parents sound cool. They sound like the kinda people I'd like to a have philosophical debates with. |
Dragon5xD said: Never and never will. In my case, it's the best choice. Pretty much the same, the generation gap is too big a thing. I'll watch anime with my daughter though, I'm a cool dad after all XD |
 |
| My mom was never big on films and movies in general so anime really doesn't interest her. Unfortunately, my father passed away years ago but I get the feeling he wouldve enjoyed watching Jojo's Bizarre Adventure with me. I haven't watched anime with either of 'em. |
"Be the change you wish to see in the world."  |
| Hell no. I'll be dead if I accidentally played Hentai. |
| I've watched Macross with my mother before but that's all she's watch. My Dad on the other hand has watched a lot of shows with me, Attack On Titan, Deadman Wonderland, Gundam 00. |
 |
| Hell no |
| I watch anime with my mom almost all the time. Even the really perverted ones, but that's just because she is in the room while I watch it on my TV, but she doesn't care. The ones I currently watch with her are Kuroko no Basket and Food Wars. We recently finished Sound Euphonium. |
 |
| I used to watch pokémon with my parents, and a little bit of dbz till it stopped airing, never tried to watch anime with them ever since. (My mom did like avatar the last airbender though, so she might enjoy it) |

Digital_Fuzion said: Yes.Have you ever watched anime with your parents? Digital_Fuzion said: With Dad:If so, what anime was it and what did your parents think of it? Azumanga Daioh - likes what he's seen, which is about the same amount that I have Akira - loved it Another - loved it Blood: The Last Vampire - loved it; said it should have been longer Death Billiards - liked it Death Note - likes it; loves L and Ryuk Eden of the East - loved it; though Saki and Akira's relationship was sweet Furiko - liked it Ghibli films - loves them Memories - liked it; loved the first film Noein - loved it Origin: Spirits of the Past - liked it Petshop of Horrors - loved it; often reminisces about 'Count-o D' Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom - loved it; this was his gateway anime; often talks about it, and how it 'got [him] into anime' Pokémon - enjoys what he's seen, I think Serial Experiments Lain - enjoyed it; found it hard to follow at times, but that's kind of the point Shigurui - found it too difficult to follow, so stopped watching after six episodes With Mum: 5 Centimetres per Second - thought it was okay; I agree Anohana - loved it Azumanga Daioh - likes what she's seen Furiko - liked it Ghibli films - loves them Ouran High School Host Club - likes it, finds it a little ridiculous I've not watched as much with my mum, as she's far busier with work than my dad is; he's also had time to read manga, whereas my mum has no time to read anything. |
Bittenfeld said: To tell you my honest feelings, Admiral Müller, as the groom at a wedding ceremony, the Kaiser is simply just a handsome man, I'm afraid to say. But as the supreme fleet admiral who leads entire fleets, he's really a godly person. Don't you think so, too? Müller said: I think he's quite godly as a groom, too. |
| I have watched Miyazaki films with them. A long time ago. I watched Princess Mononoke when I was 4 years old with my parents. It traumatized me. Seeing that white boar god turn into a demon terrified me. When I asked my parents what the tendril things were, they said they were blood vessels. Then from that point on I was afraid of blood until I had a better grasp on biology. |
| My mom has seen episodes of Fruits Basket,Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood,Attack On Titan,Black Lagoon, Black Butler,and Chobits. She was fine with Fruits Basket ,Attack on Titan,and FullMetal Alchemist Brotherhood.Chobits she said it was weird then again she only saw episode 4. I dont know her thoughs on Black Butler in general.We saw Black Lagoon on Toonami before I started watching it and we were both confused because I think it was too far in for either of us to understand. I do want to show her a few others like Durarara and Soul Eater but her work prevents it sadly. |
| I've finally got them so far to watch anime with me! My mom really enjoyed Hibike! Euphonium, so we're watching Hyouka now, and my dad's been watching Kill la Kill with me the past few weeks (we don't get a lot of time together...). It's always great fun. Nothing like instruments and skirts smaller than belts for a great bonding time! |
