Sorry I’m new to MAL and don’t know where to post this or how to make a better poll.

My friend said being 22 is too old for watching anime? How old are you guys right now? Maybe knowing it can give me some kind of closure.

If you look at anime as any other means of expression through art, then age really doesn’t matter

Though much of the viewing demographic is young people roughly around 20…

First off, you're never "too old" for any hobby that you love. Do your best to enjoy life, don't let anyone take your hobbies from you.

That being said, my wife and I are 24 and 29 and we watch anime every single day. You're definitely not "too old."

Well, kinda not true. Most animes are in fact for kids.
It's kinda hard to find anything mature among all the high school shows, never mind one that you actually feel like watching at the moment.

it depends on the anime tho. AOT is basically a seinen just published under a Shonen magazine so it is considered as a shonen.

it depends on the anime tho. AOT is basically a seinen just published under a Shonen magazine so it is considered as a shonen.

I would totally argue that it's a shounen. It's a very edgy shounen with a good story, so even I like it, but the way the main cast handles emotions, especially Eren is totally shounen for the first 3 seasons at least.
In the 4th they kinda grew up, but ye...
Levi and Erwin are good seinen characters though.

the gore, violence, characters and everything perfectly fits the seinen demographic, just because it don't have naked rape/sex scenes so, it's a fine shonen. Still I wouldn't say it's a shonen tho. Although most seinen fans are young but it's more of a seinen, perfect for adult males.

you’re never too old for anime. Why do you think so many adults like The Simpsons, Family Guy, South Park and more? Because they like cartoons and like good comedy. You should be able to enjoy your psychological, action, comedy anime all you want. Age is just a number… unless you’re talking about consent.

Well im 19 sooo i dont think itll help but Tell your friend that anime is for everyone.No matter the age.
If he thinks its still for kids/children or teens,tell him to watch a bloody show or something like Hellsing Ultimate,Attack On Titan or something along those lines..Depends on the problem your friend has.

Same here man! Turning 30 in this year. 90s kids unite!!

I work, live with my boyfriend, pay my bills and consider myself a full-grown woman, but I still enjoy watching some animes. I have a bunch of friends who do the same. But I quite get where this issue come from. After some age is definitely difficult to find something that you can relate or new. Apart from that there is no age limit for anime, honestly

first off, theres no age limit to anime, if you wanna watch it then go ahead and watch it. just because its animated drawings doesnt make or mean its childish.
and secondly, although im in the 13-16 range, ive met many (if not all) older than me on this app. which i would hope makes you feel better. dont let your friend discourage you from your likings. I dont plan on stopping anime when i get to a certain age lmao. If you like it, you like it and theres nothing you can do about that so just embrace it and dont worry

we're the same age then, well u're friend wasn't completely wrong, imo many shows aren't for our age, and getting into some anime is harder than before, but you still can find different shows that you'll like. Seinen in particular is designed for older audience
Edit: btw, why did u make this thread here lol
