  • There is a difference between something abstract like “I blow up the city” compared to “here are your parents. You’re gonna watch while I kill them”. The “I blow up the city” scenario is so huge that it’s harder to wrap a mind around, while the up close and personal “I’ll kill your parents” is immediately tangible, even though the parents are dead either way.

    Btw. this is a tangent, but I also believe that this is true for the “other side”. Must be infinitely easier to press a button and nuke a city, then to look someone in the eye and drive a dagger into their body.








  • In an age when spies act behind the scenes in every land, Chloe spends her days successfully carrying out even the most difficult missions due to her unparalleled disguise skills and martial arts abilities. After the betrayal of her boss, she suddenly disappears—as Chloe plans to redo her life as the ordinary citizen Victoria in the neighboring kingdom of Ashberry, striving for a “normal” life. However, Victoria’s peaceful life is abruptly cut short as she begins to get involved with many people. In this new land, her experiences and abilities from her days as a spy come in far more useful than she ever expected! On the other hand, the second prince–and others–take an interest in Victoria’s strength, and the shadows close in on the woman with many faces…!

    The anime will star:

    Chika Anzai as Victoria Shion Wakayama as Nonna Yōhei Azakami as Jeffrey Nobukage Kimura (Tatsuki Fujimoto 17-26, episode director for tsuritama, Kakuriyo -Bed & Breakfast for Spirits-) is directing the >anime at Studio DEEN. Naohiro Fukushima (I’ve Been Killing Slimes for 300 Years and Maxed Out My Level 2, #COMPASS2.0 >ANIMATION PROJECT) is overseeing the series scripts, and Mina Ōsawa (Given anime franchise) is designing the characters for >animation. Frontier Works is credited for the original work planning.

    The anime will premiere in July on TV Tokyo and its affiliates.

  • It’s a 6-year-old kid for God’s sake.

    Apothecary Diaries -> solving murders is the main theme. Plus prostitution, harems, blackmail, slavery, etc…

    Frieren -> slow burn for adults that understand the concept of missed time and looking back. Not to speak about all the atocities done by the demons

    The Way of The Househusband -> haven’t seen it but a Yakuza themed show …

    Delicious In Dungeon -> sister dies gruesomely and gets turned from a bloody flesh mob into a monster that hunts her own brother and friends.

    Sakamoto Days -> I think this one was assassin themed? Not sure.

    Romantic Killer -> another assassin-themed show IIRC

    Violet Evergarden -> lots and lots of very dark themes, including the war orphan origin of MC.

    'Tis Time For Torture, Princess -> nothing wrong with this one, but I don’t know how entertaining it would be without knowing what it parodies (torture)

    Solo Camping for Two -> adult drama/romance? Why not suggest Yuru Camp instead?

    Sugar Apple Fairy Tale -> okay now I know that you are trolling.

    Usagi Drop -> aimed at adults. Utterly boring for kids.

    Secrets of the Silent Witch -> sure OPs daughter will enjoy MC losing her father due to being burned alive and all the assassination attempts.

    With You and the Rain -> another show aimed at adults. The only thing that a 6-year-old would find interesting is that the “dog” is cute.

    The Devil is a Part-Timer -> is it really funny to someone who hasn’t worked a day in their lives? Plus, again, the theme of dying parents in FMC.


  • Hi. Chiming in as a parent myself, with some suggestions that I would have let my kids watch at that age:

    • Mitsuboshi Colors - Good, clean fun childhood adventures of 3 young girls.
    • Strawberry Marshmallow - Same as above, but heavier on the comedy side.
    • Cells at Work! - Educational about how the body works, though there is some fighting and battle shounen tropes.
    • Flying Witch - magical slice of life that instills a sense of wonder.
    • Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken! - 3 creative high-schoolers are fighting to keep their animation club. This is the one to watch if your kid has even the slightest interest in art.
    • Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle - a heartwarming comedy that humanizes monsters as super friendly. Might be a good watch if she’s afraid of monsters. Even a good watch if she’s not.

    I personally rate each one of them very highly, but I’m not sure whether they have dubbed versions or how good they are.

    Lastly, there is Dr. Stone. I have never seen it due to my aversion to battle shounen, but I’ve read that it is very educational about how stuff works. As I said, I haven’t seen it, so I’m not sure how light or dark it is, but it might be worth looking into. I’m also trying to remember how kid-friendly Silver Spoon was. All I remember is that I learned a lot about farming. That’s why I’ll list it for the educational aspect, but everything else about the show is wiped from my memory. I don’t think there was anything in it that would disturb a kid, but I’m also not sure how entertaining it would be for one.


  • The earlier seasons are also not appropriate for a 6-year-old. Besewanst is threatening to kill Myne’s family. A young kid might react very badly to this. Then there is an abduction attempt, the terrible situation in the orphanage, and the general disregard for human life by the nobility. I think people only remember the lighthearted moments from the show and are forgetting that there are a lot of very dark topics in the show.








  • Synopsis:

    The “zombie x youth comedy” manga is set in a world where 90 percent of humans on Earth have contracted and died from a deadly, virulent disease; only to then rise again as zombies who attack people. 13 years after that “Red Day” of societal and civilizational collapse, the surviving humans live away from the big cities, while still hoping to retake them someday. An entirely new generation of people who know nothing of the pre-Red Day world are now coming into their own. The story begins when Aki and her close friends Haru and Natsuki begin a journey to find Aki’s missing father.
