Recently, my father justified because I'm a college student, I should stop watching anime and pick up studies :relieved:, I, on the other hand thought other...

RioFox

I also think that you can never be too old to watch anime

Some people are too old for anime - or for doing much of anything, except complaining about how they're too old for anything. But it's a case of brain-ossification; anyone should be able to sit on their buns and enjoy a good story, and anime has stories for any age or persuasion.

hahhahaha you're already one oji-san

Thats F upped anime is like a culture you can never get rid of it there will never be an age limit for anime because its our hobby no scratch that our lifestyle anime is our way of living life i dont know bout you guys but people who think they should stop thinking with childish spirit or act more maturely should die thinking more maturely or be more of a realist should crawl up to a hole and die. hahah once again i strayed too far from topic

your father doesnt understand you you should kidnap him and make him watch continous looped episodes of naruto just like in A Clockwork Orange

:romance:gampai

2-3 months and only feed him watered up cup noodles with only 1 chopstick and pocky stick

i just preferred naruto because if you will have to let him one anime it should be the one with the most episodes or dragonball your pick more episodes equals less time that you need to go back to your fathers room where you keep him hostage

I think it is definitly an easy question with a deep Background.
You are never too old for something you enjoy!

If you look from the "society" point of view, I personally know some people saying Anime are just for Kids. But then again when I try showing some definitly not for the younger ones, they won't even look.

Perhaps afraid to like it?^^

I can't imagine myself at age 70 in front of a screen either.
There must be something better than a screen at that time.^^

You can never be "too old" for anything, anime or otherwise, unless you are physically incapable of performing the required actions due to old age.

What people really mean to say is that you are (should be) too "mature". Which is also bull, as "maturity" in that sense is really just a societal convention.

nnnmmm

Careful Stigia. Dem's fightin' words:m-bata:

rave0524

ro_xangel

Anime is for all ages! That is why the are anime that are "h3ntai".

I've been told many times that I'm too old to be watching anime but who cares? :) These days, its the only thing I feel like watching- movies somehow don't quite hit the spot anymore. The only caveat is that the anime should preferably be in the original seiyuu voices...not dubbed.

Your never to old to do anything you enjoy, it is just social norms which make people believe that something is wrong or not.

Though in the case of the orginal post, I believe your farther is just concerned for you, and hoping that you will focus more on your studies then on anime, I have no doupt I would of faired better at mine if I put the same amount of effort and time into it, then I did watching anime.

anime .. well certain anime just like kung fu movies and other classics ... can be timeless .. no mater how old akira is it will always be mind blowing ... and no mater how old u are watching akira is still awesome .. just an example

alfare_redsambal

I kinda think it depends on the kind of anime we watch. Or does it depend on HOW we watch it (wacthing CG while cosplaying as Zero after all is NG rite? :relieved:)

Takato

I will keep watching anime and reading manga till i die of old age.
