First let's talk about the audience, actually. Literally any age audience can watch this and still enjoy it. The extreme lack in perverted moments make this anime suitable for audiences under the ages of 16. There is mature and harsh language but there is never any vulgar language, such as sex jokes, explicit swearing and in my opinion is really good for those who want to watch a clean, amazing anime. I could even let my 8 year old brother watch it in my religious household on our large screen TV and even my parents would enjoy it. The content and subject matter, although, is complicated and may be harder for children ages under 12 to understand so that itself would bring the age rating back up to PG-13. There are no insanely gorey scenes so that brings down the restrictions to 13+. Anyways, in my opinion, having a large audience capability makes an anime really good and I think that these features make this anime perfect for the ages 13 and above and even those older than 18 would still enjoy the content and plot this story provides us with.
Now, on to the storyline and plot writing. The first few episodes seem to push a lot of people away because they *seem* like filler episodes, but that's just half the truth. I would say that 80% of the filler episodes is just pure filler while the 20% is actually information you need that is crucial to the story, being a 100+ episode anime. The great thing about the fillers is that they aren't long, boring and dragged out tediously, rather they're more of our comedy break times. Nevertheless, theyre still worth watching especially if you like a bit of comedy. Throughout the series, though, you will get good comedy. As for the plot, the beginning arc may make the anime seem like a lame show with inferior storyline but I'm going to tell you right now that the story really advances later on to a reasonable rate. Our main protag learns very quickly because of his charisma and excellent motor skills so his character development comes along well throughout the show. He is the most typical shounen character but he still manages to capture my heart because of his character development in this show.
As for character writing, I would say that most of the characters' personalities remain stagnant throughout the series but that isn't always a bad thing because there are many positive effects to the plot from their character writing, if that makes sense. The only character we dwelve the deepest into would be Tsuna, some of the villains and *some* of his friends, but I wouldn't put too much expectations in understanding characters more because they aren't written *too* too deeply but written so that you can still lightly emotionally connect and feel character development.
Overall, this anime is just a straight up 10/10 for me and for people like me who enjoy watching a time-worthy anime with the fam.
