Anime isn't for kids

Kia Ora everyone, today during lockdown we were given the choice to write an article about any topic., issue, or a person. I chose a topic which is "Anime isn't for kids" because there are people in the world that thinks that anime is for kids even though it's not.

I found it hard to try and make it look like an article.

I found it easy to write the paragraphs.

Here it is.

Anime is not for kids

By: Mark Relato

Anime is a very good thing to watch to be entertained and learn a lot more about the genre

of that certain anime you watch. You can even learn a lot about the japanese culture. A lot of

people think that anime is for kids because of the art style which makes it look like it’s cartoon.

I will prove to you that anime is not for kids.

Anime has different age restrictions some may have 7+ which is mostly just full of comedy, adventures,

and action and it’s kid friendly. Some may be 13+ which is for young teens and the genres can be much

more different, it can have swearing, blood, explicit scenes etc. So it means that each age restriction is

much more different, and to be honest I haven’t seen a single anime that is 7+ so probably 80% of all

animes are 13+ or over. Which finishes my 1st reason why anime is not for kids.

Anime creators give different anime characters different character designs. Some may have a different

tone, emotion, attitude, and character traits. For example, some characters can be mean to others, some

can be trying to kill people all the time, some have a deep voice, etc. But this means that the characters

all act different than each other, and they can do bad things that’s not for kids and stuff. There can

sometimes be swearing in some animes, which is not allowed for kids under 13.

If an anime is about fighting, action, adventure, martial arts and all the violent genres then they

obviously show blood and violence into the anime. If you think anime is for kids then you can watch

Blood C, Tokyo Ghoul, Demon Slayer, Highschool Dxd, and Jujutsu Kaisen. They will change your

perspective on anime. Anime has gore, blood, violence, or any other bad things you can think off.

“Anime is not just for kids. In fact, there are a lot of mature themes in anime you need to be an adult

to understand.” - Unknown. There are some jokes that aren’t for kid and only people with the mind of

an adult know. Anime teaches you the true value of Revenge, and revenge isn’t a good thing for kids

because it can cause a lot of trouble. Anime shows people getting drunk and doing drugs, which isn’t

kid-friendly. Anime characters go through real life problems like mental health issues, no home,

bullied, in war etc. 

People have debated for years that anime is for kids and that it isn’t but the truth is…

Anime isn’t for kids. It may look like it’s for kids but it actually isn’t.
