| They just call it naruto and move on. |
| When I retell jokes I say "one of those Japanese animated films", I get a free pass on it, so, I guess, it's fine in my family's eyes. Though, of course, sometimes I get some "you'd better got a life" comments, if I overdo talking about it. In general, my hobbies are left for me to decide. ...though I am an adult already, and my family consists solely of my father. |
| Mom thinks it's perverted. Dad thinks it's cool. Doesn't watch it though. Bonus: Sister is a cunt and won't even LOOK at it. |
| sometimes they said cartoon sometimes said japan product sometimes said porn sometimes said pokemon wtf |
| Well Duh... |
| My mum thinks I'm crazy and weird for being addicted to anime and fantasizing over 2D characters. Also, when I cry during the sad scenes or laugh during the funny, she thinks i'm insane. Don't mind the overstatement, but that's how she always reacts. |
Gin-chan said: Anime - it's not something that can be thought of in a hall for conferences. It is made out of strange juices current from the brain of animators.  |
| Kids, childish and "cartoon", saying that while laughing. And whether i laugh at comedy scene, they will rush over, and say something like "oh, you watch cartoon, never mind", also my phone's wallpaper is haikyuu!!, their respond to see that, "you still watch cartoon eh?" Whatever, it's pointless to argue with them over something like this |

| They dont's know about of such "anime", for them I'm alone all day in front of the pc.. |
 |
| My father hates anime, he thinks that every anime is hentai. My mom doesn't care, she grew up with anime |
| My dad's fairly indifferent about it. I think it confuses him a little, as he assumed that most animes target children, but he doesn't really question me about it. My mom on the other hand is fairly supportive of it. I've watched Death Note, FMA: Brotherhood, Fate/Zero and a few others with her. Recently we watched One Punch Man together and she found it hilarious, so yeah, that's good I guess. |

| Dad Likes: Cowboy Bebop Ergo Proxy Galaxy Railways Ghibli Flicks Ghost in the Shell RahXephon Mom Likes: Cowboy Bebop Ghibli flicks Haibane Renmei Moribito They are generally disinterested in anime though unless it's a movie and dubbed. I don't try to watch any series with them anymore because they have really short attention spans. |

| both my parents don't care as long as I'm happy, thought I don't show it to other familly members, but I woudn't mind if they asked me to. I remember watching avatar (not really an anime, but still animation) with my parents and they liked it. |
| my mom used to think it was silly, but after seeing HXH'11, she now at least respects it to some degree. she even is interesting in looking at zankyou no terror. she still has her biases, though. my dad thinks it's silly and will always find it silly. |
 |
| My parents like it. My dad prefers jdrama tho. Hoping to show Monster to my parents this summer n_n |
| Well I feel lucky! My parents love anime Fjihi(◕◞౪◟◕✿)hihi.. I got them into it starting with SAO and SnK.... its been almost a year and now we're watching... Parasyte the Maxim, Owari no Seraph, SnK OVA/movie, Assassination Classroom, Bleach, Akame ga Kill, One Punch Man, Another, Psycho Pass, Death Note, Angel beats, C: control, Guilty Crown, The Devil is a Part-timer, Kekkai Sensen, Noragami, Mirai Nikki.... still waiting for SnK 2 ლ(ಠ_ಠლ) |
| They don't care. Pretty sure they think I'm watching some cartoon or some shit lol. |
 |
| they dont understand it at all , my mom get pissed when i by anime merchandise or dvd's, and my dad doesn't understand anime. |
| My mom thinks it's evil and hates it. My dad doesn't really care |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| They don't know anything about it and that is the way I want to keep it xD. I doubt that they would care if they found out though. |
| My mom is meh on it, but used to watch anime back in the day. Her fave is a mecha anime lol |
| My mom doesn't care much but she knows it exists and she sometimes tells me that I run like Naruto... |
Parents said: What's anime? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ No, it's not Japanese porn, I swear! |
| They feel infinite disappointment, you know, the typical. |
 |
| Both like it after I introduced them to it. My mum has watched Death Note, Akatsuki no Yona and Vampire Knight with me. She seems to like shoujo. My dad has really gotten into it. I rewatched Death Note with him so he could see it, I showed him Clannad/Afterstory, Kanon, Steins;Gate and Code Geass. My dad is pretty chilled so he didn't care about the ecchi in CG. At the moment we're watching Sound of the Sky. I'm also planning on showing my mum Ghost Hunt since she seemed interested in ti when I mentioned it. |
 |
| I watch anime with my father quite regularly. We're rewatching NGE these days. My mom watches the occasional movie like Grave of the Fireflies or Ame & Yuki. |
 |
| they think some anime is causes bad manners for kids such as sinchan and mitsudomoe, but they thinks its okay to okay to watching them as long you didn't get any delusions. although they has their favourites shows like soap operas |
  |
| Complete and utter indifference, the best outcome. |
| Harmless cartoons because of which I'm wasting my life :< |
  |
| I doubt my parents know anything outside of Godzilla. |
 |
| She cares a little but it's only apparent when she's really mad at me. She's also watched a few anime, like 90% of Yu-Gi-Oh's final season...I don't have the remaining 10% on DVD, though. |
| My dad doesn't really care, my mom thinks I'm addicted to it. I have my own life outside of anime and other interests, and I can go days without talking about it or watching it. So I don't see why she dislikes it so much. |
| Most of the time I start new cool anime, I tell to my mom about it. She's pretty cool about that. Also, Every time I buy new anime/ manga/ game, I show it to my mom. She already learened some of this staff names. She knows what is Dragon Ball, Slam Dunk, Jojo, Pokemon. Tales Of, Detective Conan, Captain Harlock (she really liked the song of it) and some others she knows by pictute but not by name. Like when I buy new volumes of manga I have already other volumes it, she knows most of the time the series by picture. My dad don't really care, but also support it. |
| My mom thinks that they are just some japanese cartoon movies and nothing much. She yells at me "Why do u always watch this?' whenever she finds me watching. Well,She doesn't know how much fun it is to watch anime. And my dad doesn't care about it.. |

| I should stop wasting my time watching these stupid gook cartoons |
| My mom said that she should have aborted :/ |
 |
| One advantage of being an adult is not having to know or care what your parents think. |
| I think my mom thinks of them as just cartoons, though if I were to tell her I spend most of my time watching these "just cartoons" I think she might kick my ass |
| My mother was a fan of Doraemon and me and dad used to watch Naruto and Pokemon together. That's the only anime I can get with my family. Though, my aunt told my mother that there's something called ecchi and since that day, I watch anime secretly. Not that I watch ecchi anyway. |
 |
| They think anime is like the cartoons they saw : doesnt make any sense at all and each episode is a different adventure ( no sequels) , their mind about it wont change because it is part of their culture . |
 |
| Well my dad did try watching one and thought it was weird (not really sure which one he saw)... |
| I watch dragon ball super with my dad every week end and we've already watch a few shonen together with my mom aswel like naruto and one piece. We've also watched samurai champloo, full metal alchemist, shingeki no kyojin,... when they were aired on tv. My sisters and my brother also like anime so we're pretty much an anime family x) |
| My Mum just stares at me and says what are you listening too. Since I don't watch in dubbed anymore. Then most of the time has to make a racist interpretation of the language. But she couldn't care less about Anime. My Dad doesn't pay any attention to it either . |
| My dad really enjoyed Prison School and The Town Where Only I Am Missing. |
