If people are mentally mature and not only 60 years on paper, they will give zero fucks about social stigmas, especially if it's something so harmless.

Oh and well, my mom is over 60. We still watch anime together sometimes, as long as it doesn't have too many horror elements.
She also helped me out with some cosplays and showed me some sewing tricks and so on.

I don't think there's an age limit or anything, you could be really old and still like anime like when you were young. What might limit you to watch less compared to when you were young is growing up and being adult with responsibilities and all, but that's about it.

Here is the thing, the same question could be asked about toys. How old is considered to be too old to play with toys? Most people would come to the conclusion it should be somewhere between the ages of 12 and 15 but the reality is people don't stop playing with toys it's just their toys become more expensive and their tastes often mature.

A kid who grew up playing with G.I. Joe might not collect G.I. Joe action figures anymore to play with but it's likely they end up buying and collecting actual fire Arms. Some one who grew up playing with match cars probably stopped once they got their hands on a real sports car that they take care of it by upgrading and customizing.

As for anime it's simple. No one is ever going to be too old to watch anime because it's just a form of media and it has never been considered restricted to certain age groups. I been watching Anime since I was a pretty much a child and I am now in my mid 40's. I haven't stopped watching anime but over the years my tastes have changed and often find myself watching things I wouldn't have even considered watching when I was in my teens or even in my mid 20's.

Age doesn't matter. What matters most is how much you enjoy it. Though when you grow up, I think you actually need to focus on your work and it's fine if you act like your weeb self but just control your action and keep all that knowledge to yourself unless some workers wants to barge in some anime analysis interaction with you.

Not allowing older people to enjoy anime would serve no practical purpose. Hobbies shouldn't be age gated in general
I'd be an edgelady apologist, if only I were sorry

Anime fans over the age of 40 are just legends, even if they've been going at it before the internet was a thing since you had to have actively searched for series the hard way.

46 years old here. Stop being too concerned about what people think about anime (and manga) fans. It boils down to absolutely nothing.

I don't think it matters. The important bit is if they enjoy anime or not.
