Can you be too old for anime?
So I am a big fan of anime. So recently a question pop in my head. . . . Can you still be in the age 50s and still enjoy anime? So I look it up and I saw some people who said they are in 40s and still watch anime. I am just scared that I am going to grow out of loving anime and yaoi. So I thought I like to hear other opinions on this. By the way I am still a super young teenager( best not to state my age lol) and in high school.
When my son introduced me to my first anime (Gintama) I was 50 years old and then I found
myself crazy about animes !
After that I didn't stop watching animes anymore. Then I found out yaoi hahahaha
And today he supports me when I want to read my yaoi mangas .....
well, he says it's his fault that he introduced me to the anime world hahaha

No you are never too old for anime. One of positives of getting older is coming to realize that you can like whatever you want. If others don't get it, that's their problem, not yours. reply
ANIME FOREVER!!! I'm 39 and still watch it. Love it and don't plan on giving it up any time soon! My dad has loved the Marvel/DC stuff since he was a kid and he's now 66. Just enjoy what makes you happy! reply
There is a genre for mature anime targeted for 30's, its often called seinen. Most of the anime in this genre portrayed by talking about the society itself, politics, psychopathy, the uncanny portrayal of human expression, and emotion when they are in certain problems and even sometimes criticize genocide.
So, no. anime is in my opinion is the sa...... 2 reply
Nope you can't. Lots of older people enjoy comics. Anime and manga is the same.
There's something for all ages.
Also don't be scared if your interests change over the years. That's something normal. reply
