If you're going around swinging a sword and yelling "BACKLASH WAVE" for no apparent reason... Time to put it away.

o.0 *slowly puts sword away*

No. At 29 I got into One Piece. I love the hell out of that series. I still love Sailor Moon. Honey & Clover has deep meanings. Nana reminds me of how stupid I got over men, at the same time it reminds me of how confusing relationships can be. I'm always at the Kinokuniya manga section looking for new series to get into. Age is nothing but a number.

I dont think anyone should stop doing what they enjoy just because of their age. As long as it isn't hurting you or others then it should be ok. Well Im 21 so I have a while until Im considered too old to do anything. I will always watch anime. Sadly, I haven't been to one convention...sigh..

Well said, comrade. Hell, I know people who're in their 60s and they still actively watch them. There are anime especially intended for adults, and I'm talking mature themes, like Elfen Lied, Gantz, Evangelion, Gundam Seed, Grave of the Fireflies, etc. They insinuate many complex philosophies and brutal realities that may or may not even influence your outlook of life. I can elaborate with more articulate illustrations, but hey, I think it's a plenty transparent issue with anime fans, as are the said anime themselves.

To me, great anime are just more colorful actors and settings, with exquisite graphics; they ain't much different from life action movies.

Depends on Anime.

Miyazaki's stuff can be watched at any age. But. I'm a bit too old for Macross.
(Loved it as a kid!)

To even consider an age limit is completly outrageous. Seriously.........

This is a loaded question. D:

Random Heartless Citizen: Cartoons, huh? Aren't you a little too old?
Me: Cartoons?! They are called Anime my good sir. There's a difference. Oh, and my answer to your other question is

LA LA LA CANT HEAR YOU. LA LA LA CANT HEAR YYYOOOUUU!!
