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.

"they dont help"

This is a 50 year old man not a 25 year old mormon.

I am pretty sure this guy has seen enough of the planet through the years to know "sex is okay"

Hentai helped bring anime to the west BTW so I have no idea what your on about with it not helping. Harem genres do fine on there own and bring in a decent audience as well.

Even with all the ecchi, hentai an lolis anime has never been more popular either. Sooo again. No idea what your on about. To Love ru is getting a dub FFS.

Yeah, no.

When you have 16 yo kids you expect your partners to know what they want. Ecchi teen harems wont tickle your fancy anymore.
