I think it's probably when you lose your ideals, sense of wonder and imagination. This happens to different people at different ages.

Nice, that's around the time I started (maybe a couple years after), and over 700 completed entries and about 5-6 years later, I'm still going strong.


It's always been around peripherally for me, but the last year has been non stop anime goodness, and I'm nowhere near sick of it. On the contrary - the more Japanese I try to learn, the more interesting it becomes.

If I die from a heart attack because there is an ecchi scene, then that means I'm too old.

You're too old when you start finding the shows to be irritating and immature. If the show is targeted at teenagers, and you are 30 some years old, you probably don't fit the demographic.

But because "anime" is not a genre, there is no answer to the question. It's like asking, "when are you too old to watch movies?"

When you're old enough to go blind and/or deaf through age .... then you are too old to watch anime. Until then, enjoy your anime.

It annoys me when people judge you negatively because you like anime, not only is it harmless buts its also much better then most live action shows (have you seen the crap they put on tv???)

When you are dead sounds good.

But I don't think there is a limit. There may not be many older people that watch anime or read manga but that's because they never grew up with it. The generations that grew up watching and reading will be more likely to still watch and read it when they are much older. At least I see it that way.

I'll join the general consensus and say NEVER.

That's like asking "how old is too old to listen to music" or "how old is too old to read books." Those two questions sound stupid because there is no set age to stop enjoying those particular mediums, and it's the exact same with anime.

Questions like this one stem from people's (not necessarily the OP's) perception that anime is for kids or younger audiences, which it most often is not.

I agree with you. Its like just saying your to old to go to the movie theater anymore. Its just entertainment and creativity, your never to old for that.

I don't think there is a certain age where anime becomes an unacceptable hobby. As long as you enjoy watching anime then there is nothing wrong with doing so. I think that't true for most hobbies.
