It's a form of light censorship similar to non-red blood is what I always assumed.
I probably regret this post by now.

Another similar question is "Why sometimes poops in anime take the form of meringues or something which can be mistaken for sweets?".

Like even it's a form of censorship its comes more as feces fetish indoctrination.

Akira Toriyama designed Majin Buu to be a big pink poo and no one can convince me otherwise.

In Night Shift Nurses and Euphoria it's still somehow accurately brown.

Poop in Japan is actually that color, didn't you know that? It's because of their diet, which includes things like cherry blossom rice balls. Incidentally, that's also why vomit in anime is rainbow colored.

And here we are assuming you think about anime feces "very much" 24/7 . Thanks for correcting this enormous mistake with this very much needed comment.

I see that your intelligence is not developed enough to tell the difference between a statement and an opinion.

I just realised that I haven't watched any anime till now which showed feces. I didn't even know until now that they are colorful in animes lmao.

The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.
Feeling half happy, half sad.

No, but I did ponder why a toy that was a Unicorn would shit a rainbow softee, that was edible, or not I can't remember.

The question gave me 80's nostalgia.

Anyway, it's no worse than the glitter/sparkle/rainbow vomit other characters in anime do, I guess it depends on what the anime character ate?

I beg to differ about it happening ALL the time. Some actually are still brown. Example from Binbougami ga that IMMEDIATELY came to mind when you said they're ALL colorful. Most are. But some are still the normal color... why this matters I don't understand lol. It's like when my 12 year old niece (who was 8 at the time) was watching some of the old cartoons my sister I watched as a kid and stumbled on CatDog and her first question was "How do they poop?" My sister and I never thought about that and so it cracked us both up. It's not important in any way it's just a curiosity that may never get the correct answer as every person you ask may have a different one for you.

you have gintama in there, and they are notorious for their actual mosiac brown mess.
There is an episode where shit is literally thrown........

If anything its probably something to do with the asthetics of the show. Toriyama basically made his stools all pink and like curls of icecream, his shows were generally for all ages.

But playing with shit, i guess it just doesn't fit with his design.

Crayon Shin Chan shows shit in its original uncensored form, when it was dog shit.

Have I wondered? Never and don't care. Anime logic.

- NOT your usual shounen anime
- Pure comedy? DEAD WRONG
- Treat Gintama as SoL/weekly sitcom especially earlier seasons
- Ep 1 & 2 are for manga readers
- BIG patience for its 'slow' start

Poop in anime is colorfull because the way anime characters digest their food is totally different to our homo sapiens way to digest food. Best example is when an anime character pukes colorfull rainbows. This clearly explains why poop is colorfull. Hooray science!

The anime society values poo unlike
The modern society who isn't valuing poo enough.they are meant to be cryopreserved.
Poo is a treasure chest full of intestinal bacteria and worms. Doctors can find everything from one's intestinal bacteria. Their health, illness, ailments, living conditions, their diet...
Poo is blog of their life..

(Read this line in a manga, which i translated.)

That is because people in Japan have a bad diet.
