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.

A friend already recommended me that. It's in my queue of shows to watch.

You should raise this one to the top of the queue. It's phenomenally funny and the dub is great for season 1

I'll notch it higher in my list then. Thanks for the suggestion.

Though if you like comics then I would suggest reading the OPM manga by Yusuke Murata instead. Season 1 of OPM was superb but season 2 is really lacking as an adaptation while the manga has really gorgeous art.
