| On MAL especially, I have noticed Hunter x Hunter has an abnormally large fanbase of younger audiences (16 and under). Which isnt too surprising since shonen is more younger audience based but still. Why do so many kids prefer hxh? Naruto and MHA the only other shonen I can think of where the show has such a large younger audience |
Cloyee said: No, in fact HxH is one of those shonen that is less kid oriented than popular shonen like Naruto, DS, MHA etc. demon slayer is one of the most wide ranging anime ever lol. naruto and demon slayer especially have been able to branch outside of the genre of anime |
| maybe kids want to feel mature and smart by watching HxH lol |
| Bruh. It literally has themes like genocide, organised crime, torture and even cannibalism. It is as kid friendly as Made in Abyss. |

Main difference this that in SpongeBob supposed violence is totally caetoonish and ironical, thus comedical. It is literally what slapstick comedy is. In HxH violence is dark, gritty and serious. Such a terrible comparison. |

| It's definitely a manga where they ship kids with each other, that's for sure. |
 |
| Is this the second version of your previous troll thread? "Hunter x Hunter is the spongebob of anime" |
| you haven't watched it though |

Naruto and MHA the only other shonen I can think of where the show has such a large younger audience You’re saying this with Akame ga kill in your favorites. That’s the height of “I’m 14 and this is deep”. Kurapika brings a shovel to a 1v1, solely to bury the body. The chimera ant arc is borderline seinin. Just because your story involves younger kids doesn’t make the show geared towards them. I think kids stick to demon slayer and One piece. They seem to have trouble understanding nen alot of the time (for some reason? ain’t that complex) and end up dropping HxH. Or because of Gon and Killua’s age they look at the show and say “this is for kids” then try to find something edgy like Akame ga Kill Yes H×H is made for kids just like Made In Abyss... |
|
| Disagree. The way HxH expresses themes and ideas is very mature. In fact, much more mature than any other shounen. |
| how does a question like this get asked when the chimera ant arc exists |
| good opinions on anything, block = I own you |

It is as kid friendly as Made in Abyss. i mean so do kids shows like avatar and adventure time. No, they don't. I don't recall people being brutally murdered on screen, especially children. And if it happened, it happens once or twice. |

official_brown said: All shounen is marketed towards 18 years or younger audience, hence why it’s called shounen, so yes, it’s for kids. What this dude said. How many times does this topic need to be made? It was published in a shōnen magazine. Ergo definitionally marketed/“geared toward” male humans under 18 years of age. We can debate which are more/less “appropriate” for children, or which are more likely to attract viewers outside of the literal target demographic, but all of these examples were quite literally written “for children.” |
gintokisbicep said: Piromysl said: No, they don't. I don't recall people being brutally murdered on screen, especially children. And if it happened, it happens once or twice. we must have been watching a different avatar cause that shit went dark. even if they didn't show it on screen as much as hxh, they certainly did a fantastic job at showing the effects of genocide and such If you are talking about one historical event that happened 100 years before the start of the story, then it hardly counts. |

According to manga volumes HxH is for 16+. |
| So, there's this anime called as "Shoujo Ramune." Its about 3 10y/o girls who are friends, enjoying their life in a peaceful village. They love to go to a candy store run by a kind and friendly gentleman. Well, since it's about 10y/os. I decided, why not recommend this show to all the kids below 10 years out there. Since it had child cast, it should be for children right? RIGHT???? |

| It’s not a HxH thing. I think that in general on MAL there are a lot of younger users, so naturally it’ll seem like a lot of popular fanbases (like HxH) have a larger audience of kids. |
ZeraZera said: Definitely, but it stops being kid friendly once Hisoka shows up. unfortunately a lot of the hxh fans still try to say hisoka isnt a pedophile, which is an entire different problem with the hxh community in of itself |

" it only happens once or twice, doesnt count " youre just being biased for one of your favorite shows at this point. im not really sure why either. its not like being a show directed more for kids is bad. Well, you are making shit up, because Avatar is not even close to being "my favourite". And I'd like to correct myself and state, that gratuitous violence does not happen in Avatar at all. |
