| Wandering Witch: The Journey of Elaina - One episode revolves around a girl who murdered her abusive uncle. The backstory turns out to be even more f*cked up than it first appeared to be. |

GeGeGe no Kitaro, the version that aired 2018-2020. I know it's technically based on a shounen manga. But like Detective Conan, Kitaro is marketed to prepubescent kids. Highlights include a bullied mother who attempts suicide, a Bad Person killed by the ghosts of his victims, and a protagonist unrewarded for his Good Deeds. 10/10 would watch again. 😀 |

| Eh, not an anime, but Courage the Cowardly Dog had some episodes that fucked with me as a kid. I still remember that fucking snowman... |
| Poyo. |

| Yeah, that recent Gegege no Kitaro is not for kids, period, for one a lot of the episodes will go over their heads, especially the ghost train episode, which only adults would understand. It has way too much social commentary (a lot of is based off of if not straight up real facts) for kids. Most mainline Gundam anime isn't for kids (It's for teenagers at best), despite it being marketed as such, especially the older installments, but IBO and to a lesser extent Unicorn are definitely for adults. |

Or the cockroach episode. Oh my gosh, not the slab... Thanks for bringing up my repressed childhood trauma. Now I'm gonna have nightmares of King Ramses lol. The one that terrified me the most was that episode (I think it was the final episode) with that mean teacher and Courage having trippy nightmares. Despite it being scary, I enjoyed watching it. Truly a one of a kind show. It probably couldn't be made today though xD |

| I'd argue there's some fucked up episodes from Pokemon. Take for example, the Sabrina episodes. |
| "Did you forget already? In my word the color "red" doesn't exist. These must be...my tears. Ever since I woke up from my coma...I think I've been waiting for this very moment. You'd do well to remember this, Maya. The only time a lawyer can cry is when it's all over." (Ace Attorney T&T: Bridge to the Turnabout) "I'm my worst critic." (Kendrick Lamar)  |
| As @MrSpenfo said.Watching on 9:30 pm at nick even make the cartoon more exhilarating |

_Maneki-Neko_ said: the first Pokemon movie is in its violence and themes quite brutal and has depth for a kids' movie. Especially if you know the girl's background story. And I still love it. What girl? Are you sure you're not talking about the 3rd movie? |

inim said: Unico (1981) made me wonder how it got the G rating and Kids tag. That's G and not PG. It has alcohol abuse, attempted rape and pretty scary scenes of a monster chasing his victim trough surreal and dark places. Even by 1981 standards is a very dark G. Wow that's pretty fucked up. PTWed. I have watched that one, it's mostly childish but got pretty dark intro and ending it's weird. I like to add Kerokko Demetan. Aside from graphic violence, it's also quite dark with its themes from beginning to end; I wrote a review that explains why. |

| Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni I think it was s2, of the 2000s anime. The villain's backstory was hellish. |

What's even more unbelievable is that MAL has it listed under Comedy genre too! French version even edited half a second when a fish hunts him and bites his own lips, missing him. Still it was the only unedited version of the three compared to Pinnochio and Hutch. lol I didn't realise it was listed as a comedy, which is ironic given that nearly every episode is a tragedy. One of my favourite episodes, with a dark plot twist: |

| courage the cowardly dog is perhaps the best example |
You all have to undrestand that Chainsaw man is impossible to adapt without CG. |

I'd rate it as a kids movie, yet the topics presented encompassed many of Tezuka's serious moments. How can you think that movie is for kids? The manga that inspired it is most definitely not for kids. Even if we consider that lots of kids read shounen, Phoenix is on the more mature side of the demographic. |

| isn't Narutaru kind of marketed as a kids show, with the Pokemon-inspired creatures and all? |

I heard it's a comedy. the comedy they intended to use is lame, it's funny when you see a giant alien shooting randomly at people killing them, only to be killed by the main character in 2 seconds. behold this mastsrpiece |
