So have you personally watched a lot of anime before and stopped now?
Or has someone you know or know of grown out of it?
When I say this, I don't mean anime that's MEANT for children such as Pokemon or Dragonball Z, athough I have no doubt there's probably older people still watching those somewhere out there...
I'd consider myself someone who has grown out of anime. I'm 18 and I just don't find it appealing any more. All the mainstream anime just seems a little too younger-oriented to me, and I don't even find any non-mainstream animes that much different. There are maybe one or two series I still hold onto, but nothing near the amount of series that I watched before.

well.. they have particular anime/manga for a particular age group^^
you cannot love "shonen" anime/manga like pokemon or whatever coz your 18 now ...you could have fun watching/reading the anime/manga made for your AGE GROUP..and above! ...you should try "seinen" or "jedaigeku" type of anime/manga ...i'm 19 now.. and i still enjoy watching anime^^
