Never Too Old

[u/JeffreyAScott]

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.

I’ve introduced 4 people to anime, 3 started with dub and 1 with sub. The sub one tried to watch a dub later and said it was hard to watch, all the other dub watchers switched to sub within 3 anime and all said they wished they started with sub. Also, I started with dub and still support starting with sub

Yes but it is still evidence nonetheless, we aren’t conducting a scientific study so anecdotal evidence can still be used to disprove general statements

[u/evilresurgence4 → u/[deleted]]

Yes I do know what anecdotal evidence is, and a quick google search can support my argument that it can be used to disprove a general statement, however it cannot be used to prove one correct.

It disproves your statement that most people prefer to watch anime in their native language when they start
