But the show is so in your face with it early on in the series, and it dominates its presence on the internet that I cannot recommend the show to anyone that isn't already aware of its trashy nature. It is a real disservice to the show in general, which has a lot of heart. I think there are good reasons to forgive Darling for that. Sexuality, fertility, relationships, frustration are actually part of its core recurring themes. It's not like Aquarion and Daimidaler where they do lewd things for the sake of lewd things. I completely disagree. All the characters in that series are coded as children, from their uniforms to the fact that all the adults call them children. Yet that are leered at and sexualized by both the camera and animation. I have no problem with the boys and girls being attracted to each other, it is making Zero Two appear naked in the first episode with her magic hair serving as pasties. Objectifying characters that are presented to me as high school freshmen and juniors is gross and why I have a hard time recommending the show to anyone. It is a disservice to a show in general. Isn't the core demographic underage for anime? Depends on the show. Shounen are like 12-17 year old boys, Seinen college age guys, then there are the female equivalent demographics (Shoujo and Josei). Shounen is by far the largest demographic, but the others are sizable. I'm not sure what age group (if any) Darling is aimed at. Also, some shows aimed at one demographic can wind up with crossover appeal (apparently Shounen started adding a bunch of bishonen characters for this reason). It is true that most of it is aimed at 20s or younger. Side note : High School in Anime is typically depicted as a 3 year program in Japanese Anime (though from what I understand this isn't 100% common in the actual country). Granted, sophomore/junior age isn't really THAT much better than freshman/sophomore age for sexuality. | ||

It is not the best anime ever made but it has mostly solid production and an interesting (if not fully coherent) background and story. gonna take a stab at this. The reasons I dislike AoT: 1. Main characters are lame -- Eren is a baby, Armin is an even bigger baby, mikasa is OP 2. Pacing is awful and the story gets pretty convoluted further in the manga. I have read like 90 chapters and I still feel lost. Its a shitty feeling. 3. Its a product of the death and gore at the cost of all else fetish people have developed. | ||

A lot of people like horror/gore so the violence wouldnt be an issue. Very high production value, the action scenes are something that you wouldnt get in any other medium, I think its probably one of the better recommendations.

I'll concede that the first episode was probably offputting, but I still maintain that a lot of the shows sexualization is relevant to its themes But, I think your point probably still stands. As much as I would disagree with that critique, I wouldn't recommend it as a gateway anime to anyone. | ||
