It must be scary to be a kid... |

Fixed the tag. I don't think Dio had anything to do with Azumanga, but if he did, it would have rocked even harder. |

@anon1: a kid scare of TTGL? DOESN'T COMPUTE |
| Anonymous #94898 1 year ago |
I don't really "get" most anime. There are a few shows I've somewhat liked, but overall I don't really understand the phenomenon. Especially not how crazy it seems to get in Japan. |
| PonyRIG #94904 1 year ago |
basically it means that kids love blood, swearing and over awesome battles, adults like.....lolis and everyone likes ponies |
| Anonymous #94906 1 year ago |
Yeah, I did get that from the chart, lol. I guess I just don't understand the mass appeal of either type of anime (not that most western animation is any better these days, with the odd exception like Airbender and Ponies and whatnot).
Especially don't the loli stuff, meh. |

Was Fist of the North Star marketed towards kids? |
| Anonymous #95103 1 year ago |
When FIM starts airing in Japan, I bet it will become a new member of the "anime for adults" club. |
| Anonymous #95113 1 year ago |
No, it wasn't. However, how anime is marketed in Japan is completely different from how it is marketed in the United States. |
| Skipta #95131 1 year ago |
How about you stop labeling everything Western as "American"? It's mostly a Canadian show (with a studio in the Philippines as well as Vancouver), right? It just seems so silly. |
| PonyRIG #95141 1 year ago |
@skipta: don't look me! i didn't made this |
| Anonymous #95164 1 year ago |
I'm going to explain it to you:
Children: A great sense of amazement, they look for great and awesome adventures to emulate, and thus you get those. Adults: The adventures we hope for a false, they will never happen, give me something to tell me it can be better, that being that sucky guy will eventually turn out well. MLP: It's seen mostly by either your girls or old adults. So basicly, it's adult anime without all the fanservice..... which makes me sad. |
| Yeoseo #95165 1 year ago |
>Anime for kids catagory
Cool story, bro. |
| Anonymous #95193 1 year ago |
Wait a second, the anime in the adult anime category barely have any fanservice at all. |

I don't get this chart at all. Instead of comparing anime for kids, anime for adults, and American cartoons watched by all, shouldn't it compare anime watched by all and cartoons watched by all? Or anime for kids, anime for adults, cartoons for kids and cartoons for adults?
I mean, there are anime for kids that are watched by all, anime for adults that are watched by all, cartoons for kids that are watched by all, and cartoons for adults that are watched by all. It just doesn't make sense to compare the target demographic of one region vs the periphery demographic to another. |

FotNS was the best anime I've ever seen. They shoot ninjas out of cannons, an Kenshiro punches a tank to death, and one of the characters is Jesus, only radioactive and he shoots rainbow lasers out of his armpits. |

What's the adult Anime on the far right? It looks adorable! |
| Anonymous #96304 1 year ago |
P&S is with Ponies, everyone should watch it. |
| Thaluka #97312 1 year ago |
The adult shows basically have a lot of loli, psuedo loli, and moe content; it isn't necessarily a flattering comparison. |
| Kriegs #119107 1 year ago |
I object to Lucky Star stinking up the middle lane.
Or, alternately, the implication that Azumanga Daioh is equivalent to Lucky Star. |

Pretty sure TTGL was never marketed towards kids. |

It's called Potemayo; pretty much just episode after episode of adorable-ness in small, cuddly packages; principle character is on the lower left corner and she does some very cute things. Think of an Applebloom that can't speak, except saying "Honi honi honi!" As for the people who don't "get" anime (such as Anons #94898 and #94906): Personally, I think the Period Table of Harmony is missing a few elements. Yeah, there's laughter, loyalty, generosity, kindness, honesty, and magic, but that's just the components for the orbital friendship beam. I believe understanding is one such element, and I would encourage you to seek it out... for harmony. (Hint: You've probably watched this stuff, I know. The idea is to watch with someone else's eyes and not your own. This is the common mistake of anti-brony haters. And we see how much they just don't get it, right? We see memes and hilarity, but they see the same girlishness they believe the show to be. You don't have to like it, but never forget that it's only because your preferences are different.) |

It was a Japanese version of "Saturday morning cartoons." Learn more before posting. |

Thank you, Saphyr! I was hoping someone would give a good explanation like that. |
| Anonymous #700632 8 months ago |
Azumanga Daioh and Lucky Star are both shounen, so this isn't really correct. |
