Listen, it is understandable why you would never let your kids watch anime. But at the same time, if you don't let them watch something, they are going to go behind your back and watch it anyway because they're curious. Then, they might run into the wrong type of anime. That's why I suggest a 100% family-oriented anime list, including animated movies like Spirited Away, Ponyo, Howl's Moving Castle, and Castle in the Sky. There are many others from that company. For TV shows, there are options like Pokemon, Digimon, Yu-Gi-Oh, Beyblade, Sailor Moon, Glitter Force, and Doraemon. Maybe Assassination Classroom, depending on how old your kids are. The point is, there are many options for just normal anime that do not have adult content or a lot of adult jokes.
@Pancakes-n-Waffles168 and that tells you how good the glitter force is. So good, actually. I thought it was like the four kids dub anime treatment, similar to Yu-Gi-Oh and Pokemon. What is good to know is that that's a bit of information. Thanks.

Anime is a bit...finicky Lemme explain So anime is just a big umbrella term for Japanese Animation. It can range from hamataro to fieren and everything in between. Anime is basically cartoons. That's like saying you're going to not let your kids watch cn because of adult swim. They don't go together! There are so many age appropriate anime, hello kitty, precure, pokemon, and yeah some anime ain't for children, but for teens instead.
Yeah, I also used to copy things I saw in anime in middle/high school. Years later, I was diagnosed as autistic and now it all makes sense in hindsight.
Denying your children an entire medium of television because as a child you had cringe moments is awful. They are just going to sneak and watch stuff and potentially watch some weirdo anime since you don't know what they were seeing.
I agree, I can credit anime with some of my weirder teen brainworms. Also I wanted to add a thought: I was raised in a very sheltered household, where my media exposure was very tightly controlled. (I was raised on a lot of black-and-white tv shows and movies. My parents even had a special dvd player that would live-censor movies, which we used for *anything* PG-13. I never saw anything R-rated until I escaped at 18.) What I learned from that experience is that the more restricted something is, the more alluring it becomes, and the more work will go into doing it secretly. And the more you try to crack down on those secrets, the more estranged the relationship becomes. I've lived that experience, and seen it in at least a dozen other families. It honestly works just like abstinence-only vs safe-s3x education. Absolute forbiddance only creates unregulated and unsafe secret avenues, while full education and proper guidance creates safer and more open ones. If your goal is to prevent your kids from becoming complete social aliens who unironically identify as Otakus, I'd recommend a more moderated approach, where maybe anime is something they can watch after a certain age, deliberately starting them out on a few of the best-written and least-whack shows, and teaching them to examine it critically. If you can teach them enough media literacy to recognize the "wtf???" aspects of anime before/while they start watching it, then they’ll be able to examine it critically and separate the gold from the garbage. That's also just true of all media, not just anime. And teaching kids a critical eye is probably one of the single most powerful ways to set them up for adulthood. I can't watch most anime anymore, because I grew to recognize and critically examine the ways it portrays women, and I can't fucking stand it. The only animes I can truly recommend anymore are Fullmetal Alchemist (which has one of the best gold-to-garbage ratios I've ever seen, and was my first intro to actual philosophy), and Madoka Magica (the only anime I know that doesn't get weirdly horny or fetishistic but is also NOT FOR KIDS). I consider both of them to be gold standards of female characters in anime, and also just masterpieces as shows (I'm sure those are unrelated). A friend, who shares my problems with anime, has also just recommended Frieren highly enough that its now on my *Actual* Watch List. Idk how necessary this whole comment was, idk exactly how literal vs hyperbolic your video was. But thanks for reading it. Also I really like the crisp simplicity of this artstyle. The way you draw your character is very compelling.
Oh hey, I do agree, and with point three, you can also show kids the kid friendly animes which are made for kids, bc anime is just Japanese animation and a big umbrella for a lot of genres Also, some anime that you might enjoy: Pokemon, Pretty Cure, Ojamajo Doreimi, Sailor moon (although, that one fits with your desc of treating female characters weird, but only sometimes!), Cardcaptor Sakura (yes. That one relationship is a "thing" everyone hates it, but other than that it's amazing), and Horimiya :p
This is the straight way of making your kids misguided and resentful and thus making them seek the forbidden part of anime you want to hide so desperate, how do I Know??? Is was that kid that were told anime was bad and it was banned in our family, so i seek anime in magazines, at ciber cafes, on the school computers and i ended up in the bad part of the internet because of this, is that foolish behavior of hiding the sun behind your finger, instead of teaching your children that bad things exist so they trust you this information without feeling judged and alone
Unless you fully explain why something is evil (not with baseless religious/prejudice crap-) to a kid, they won't get it. And even then, it doesn't mean they aren't tempted
Not even gonna watch the video, there are plenty of anime you can watch including the old ones. Kids are not stupid and I guarantee your kids will end up watching anime without you knowing.
fr like 😭 theres so many anime that are weird but theres normal anime that exist 💀 there’s pokemon n normal stuff out there. there’s also ALOT of adult jokes in other kid shows too😭😭
Agree, and lot of kids cartoons influenced by Japanese animation thses days. It's surprising how ppl say they never watched anime, only have their mind blown when I tell them "Hello Kittry" and "Hamtaro" is anime.
I can understand wanting to protect your future kids. Parents these days seem to just let tablets and phones babysit their kids instead of actually taking care of the kids themselves, and it's refreshing to see someone wanting to actually be a good and caring parent. But why not let them watch kid-friendly anime like Hello Kitty series, Onegai My Melody, Hamtaro, etc. instead of completely banning them from anime? Completely banning them from anime will just cause them to watch anime for older audiences behind your back.
Completly discarding the topic of the video, this art style is amazing! I can't belive that an animator with less than 600 subscribers is making this good of content and having a great art style to go along with it, props man.
to be honest you should guide your kids when it comes to ANYTHING. a lot of non anime has themes I'd rather a child not see, even if it's a kid's show. I would prefer if instead of resricting a particular type of entertainment you filter it out. I would let a kid watch anpanman (kid's anime) but not kimetsu no yaiba.
I think my brother and I ended up doin less of that weird shit despite watchin anime was bc anime ain't exactly on cable. And whenever we did watch it and there was some weird shit, our mom wouldn't get mad since she's Japanese and knows how it is Besides, anime was more mainstream with my gen
4:14 AYE VANTIAS NO CARTE >:3 but I do understand your reasons, although for me, I always avoided Anime. Since I was told it was bad (forgot who said it, but it was always lingering in my mind) So until one day,( 2022) I decided to watch some, (that being Mha, which I did get bored if it- mainly due to that purple grape,) and then I saw Tbhk and read Bsd. Whose stories and art were amazing! (Even inspired my art style)And it wasn’t inappropriate or too cringy (as in those tropes, which no hate but eh 🤷♀️) although there was definitely deaths and a bit messed up characters, but in short. Of course there’s some weird anime, but others are alright (depending on the age), and some may even inspire ppl to write/draw their own stories. I’d say tell them to avoid any weird ones
No, yeah, of course as long as it’s not something echhi I don’t really care in my video I was more explaining on paying attention to the type of anime. My kids are watching rather than completely not letting them watch it despite the title honestly, the title was more to lore people in.😗🌸 you gotta use that shock factor 💅🏽
oh man. Finally, someone who will end up caring about their kids.. BRAINROT PREVENTION YAAAAY!! Also, just saying that I absolutely adore your style :>
im glad that they're preventing brainrot, but anime is not exactly that. there are many family friendly animes, it's basically cartoons. it's about picking the right ones. telling kids not to will also (probably) backfire bcz they will go behind her back and watch because they're curious, which could lead to worse things that weren't picked out properly by the adult themselves.
I agree but disagree with this. I do not think that all those cringe moments were just because you watched anime and has no parental supervision with the internet. Everyone literally has cringe moments and to me I don't I don't even understand why those moments were so bad. They're a little bit embarrassing but it wasn't like you were going around repeating inappropriate stuff from said anime and saying inappropriate remarks about that stuff. When you were saying about stuff in the sixth grade I thought were going to like make sexual comments to people. If you like the smell of mac and cheese and instinctively go to smell something that smells like mac and cheese.... dude you liked the smell and you were young, oh well. Children do embarrassing and cringe stuff all the time. I'm not blaming the cartoons or anime I watch for whenever I mess up in a social situation everytime. Because that's unreasonable. There are bad animes but there's also good ones. Sixth grade me was worse. And I do mean worse. I was literally thinking about how the government or some outside force was messing with my mind or that everyone was playing a big joke on me. I wish I would've been introduced to more anime back them. Specifically, BSD. Ranpo. If I had read his backstory that may have helped me a bit. I didn't know really what autism back then was. I didn't understand why I was different in obvious ways that may not seem as much as a major difference now but just piled up on all the other stuff. And that caused extreme anxiety just going on a walk. Or talking to people that weren't EXTREMELY close to me. I can guarantee you it wasn't the books I read either. Sure, I was reading crime since I've been obsessed with crime and detectives and stuff for years but it didn't have to do with the fact that one time this one lady laughed everytime I made "weird" movements with my hands. Now I probably should've been getting therapy instead of relateble anime character. But it would've really been an easier way to realize that I probably had autism since I go into rabbit holes studying stuff for hours upon hours.
