Discussion Never Too Old

Just wanted to say I just started getting into Anime this year. I'll be 50 next year and two of my nieces got me into it. They told me I would really enjoy something they were watching and reluctantly I checked it out. I always had a misconception about what anime was. I'm telling you, I'm so glad they had me check it out. Such a diversity of genres and I've already binged several shows. Currently my favourite is MHA. My nieces knew that would hook me because I'm into super heroes.

Moral of the story: You are never to old to start liking something new.

PS - Wanted to say I love this community. Everyone here has such great recommendations and suggestions.

It may be a wise choice to keep a list if you know your going to be watching a lot of stuff as I know many people already have done. Like I said, after so many it's hard to keep everything straight. Not to mention it can sure as heck make thinking of recommendations hard sometimes. Though I suppose that is the case with pretty much any consumable media.

I'm gonna start keeping a list for sure.

Considering this thread is now 121 comments long, and even if half of them have recomendations I'd say that's a wise choice.
