    My dad let me rent an anime when I was 11 or 12. He was like “eh get whatever, it’s cartoons.”

    I chose Ninja Scroll.

    I turned out fine hahaha

      For those unititiated, this anime movie includes a woman who is literally toxic to sleep with. Her body poisons any of her partner and they die shortly after.

      This is confirmed with a scene where someone sleeps with her against her will. It is very not appropriate for a 12 year old.

        It was absolutely not appropriate. Add to that the HORRIFICALLY gratuitous dismemberment, decapitation, and other gruesome acts of torture… the fucking honestly was the LEAST of the issue.

        My little brain was like “whoaaaa… anime is bad ass!”

        Then I moved on to stuff like Azumanga, Excel Saga, and Cat Soup. Yknow, the hardcore stuff.
