Yet, I've weirdly seen so many people trying to suggest both shows this season must have been funded by tobacco companies! It's part of why I wrote this and dove a little deeper.
My apologies, I didn't know this kind of standard existed! I will do my best to include it in listings in the future. I have done my best to make a basic reminder for the event to watch Sukeban Deka and the future shojo anime watching. Thank you for teaching me about a new thing!

I admit, I do not understand the words you have typed in this exact order. I apologize for my lack of comprehension, but if I'm being asked to do something, I don't know what it is.
Oh my gosh, I should have thought to post about this on here! I really hope a bunch of folks come on in and join. This is the highest quality release of Yawara! ever, from it being the Bluray restored footage from the latest Japanese release to its fansubs having just finished their multiyear projects to make sure everything is perfect.
Basically, there's never been a better time to watch Yawara!
Part of the problem is how much of the anime industry in based in Texas. Sentai Filmworks, all kinds of dubbing done for Crunchyroll, etc. So it will radiate throughout the anime industry extremely quickly.
Second, you gotta remember that a group of unhinged people seem to think anime turns people trans. Lots of TERFs and the like point to anime as a bad influence on people and if you haven't noticed, there's a hell of a culture war on trans folks right now. Including in Texas, people saying folks with trans parents or anyone supporting their trans kids is doing child abuse.
We combine these things together and quickly see it could easily not be only applied to things that actually display any kind of child abuse. So shows like Skip and Loafer, Wandering Son, Senpai is an Otokonoko, hell Ranma 1/2 and even stuff like Princess Knight could fall under fire.
You say it would be difficult to rationalize, the problem is the folks making and enforcing these laws aren't rational people.
I gotta be real, the article like... Basically had nothing to say other than "girls hot." I had actually hoped there might be curious analysis or discussion, but then I saw it was J-List after clicking and stayed to see how bad it was. oof!
The second paragraph literally discusses creating a self care plan surrounding watching the movie. It links out to several studies by child psychologists and articles discussing watching scary/sad media with kids and how to do so. It shows examples of how kids are interacting with stories like this safely. It recommends showing kids things like this in safe environments so they don't suddenly come to you broken and scared when horrors are thrust upon them when they are alone or unsupervised.
As a kid, I was "trolled" with fake links that sent me to beheading videos online. Tons of folks I know watched 9/11 happen live in their classrooms. Hell, the post talks about how pictures and videos from Gaza keep showing up on feeds on Instagram and TikTok. The whole point is parents should do that work and teach kids these skills and that it's okay to ask for help if they run into an emotional brick wall BEFORE they hit the brick wall.
But this is why ya shouldn't skim! Read deeply! (P.S. I wrote the post, I'm also literally a parent. If that matters to you.)
USA: Not rated by the MPAA. Considered "suitable for all audiences" on the Central Park Media VHS release. TV-PG on the Sentai Filmworks release.
Germany: 6+ (Apropriate for ages 6 and up.)
France: Tous publics (General Audiences)
India: U (Unrestricted public exhibition, suitable for all ages.)
Hong Kong: Level 1 (Suitable for All Ages.)
Canada: G and PG for Quebec and Manitoba respectively.
Japan: G
Saudi Arabia: PG
Singapore: PG
Italy: T (Recommended for persons of all age groups.)
Taiwan: 0+ (Suitable for all ages)
Netherlands: 9 (Ages 9 and up)
Nigeria: PG
You'd know that if you read the post! Funnily enough, it also links out to an neat article discussing a study showing parents aren't reading scary stories to their kids... And why that's bad. Here it is just in case ya need it! Heck, on other bits of social media, I heard about schools showing kids the movie in 5th to 6th grade, in the US even!
You'd rather have kids do it when they're supervised and have love and support then when it is suddenly thrust upon them with no warning, that's for sure.
Read the whole post, give it a serious shake. It cites child psychological studies, shows how kids today are healthily handling stories like these in Japan, and even acknowledges secondary trauma and avoiding triggers for already traumatized people. There's a lot of nuance when you get past the title.
This is so sweet of you to share my work like this, thank you! I'm also pretty excited for Season 2 of Tonbo! as it was a surprisingly touching tale emotionally, even with all the technical golf talk.
Yet, I've weirdly seen so many people trying to suggest both shows this season must have been funded by tobacco companies! It's part of why I wrote this and dove a little deeper.
They don't, they use mock brands. Which is the huge difference here.

It seems like maybe they've had mascots before? Nothing on this level they're trying to push for sure though.
It's 100% real, she's been animated and everything. Multiple news orgs are reporting on this.
It really is a wild fucking timeline we're living in right now.

Ahem... The film is rated...

Me too, but I rarely see regret for having seen it the one time they did.

Perhaps I had a better experience with the article with my adblocker on, there were more pictures in the article too when I saw it on desktop.
