Anime is not for children!

HAHAHAHAHAHA. Go talk to anyone who actually works in the anime industry who the vast majority of anime shows are targeted for. Guess who they will say? Children and young teens.

>>Go to Japan you will see grownups with anime ringtones, and anything anime you will see for yourself

Bullshit.

You waps who are still under this impression that anime is mainstream (which it isn't outside of things like Ghibli movies) and is the same as live action you really need to read this: http://www.angelfire.com/geek/tetrisnomiko/misconceptions.html

In the end, anime is not watched by everyone in japan. It is not mainstream. Manga on the other hand is mainstream within the japanese society.

Yeah what would someone who has actually lived in Japan know? *rolls eyes*

Also there is a link to an interview with the manga artist of Fushigi Yugi who talks precisely about the topic of how the vast majority of anime is for children. But then again, what would she know she's only a manga artist and has had her manga turned into anime.
