I know plenty of older parents who love the show. Honestly, it is one of the best pieces of fiction I have ever had the privilege to witness (and will witness based on the manga).ĭo not let the fact that it is an anime deter you. It occurs in a natural manner, so the turn of the story makes sense narratively (unlike GOT ending lol). It becomes some politically complex historical allegory. Over time the show becomes less about killing Titans and blooms into something special. That is why I recommend more mature audiences they can appreciate the humanity of these characters without getting influenced by their moral complications. This may make some characters appear as bad role models, which I understand. As a result there is no main “bad guy,” just characters struggling to survive and live in their environment. They are put in difficult situations which prompts various responses. They grieve, argue, cry, break down and persevere. They are all not over powered, or incredibly smart or have a perfect moral compass. The characters are what make the show they are flawed which makes them that more realistic and relatable. I am a music nerd and love a good sound track and trust me, this soundtrack is genius. The music and animation is absolutely gorgeous. The show tackles issues about morality and racism while raising questions about freedom and perspective. While younger teens can probably handle the show I believe more mature individuals can really appreciate the themes the show portrays. However, there is an instance of human trafficking and an uncomfortable sexual assault moment which can be off putting for less mature audiences. Teens have their typical crushes but it is not central to the plot (well as of now). There is quite a bit of cursing, but I cannot recollect characters saying anything worse than sh*t. Some characters drink wine and smoke but this is not reoccurring. The show is violent (there is little plot armor for characters people die, get eaten, beaten, tortured, shot, crushed etc.) but it is animated, so the violence is by no means more graphic than something like Game of Thrones. In general I believe most high school age teens can handle the content of the show. I have not met one person who has watched the whole thing (up to S3) and not held it in high regard. I was never interested in starting anime but was told to watch AOT by a friend.

I enjoy all aspects of TV and wanted to diversify my experience. I am an 18 year old girl and before AOT I watched main stream shows (GOT, Euphoria, Mandalorian, Outer Banks, etc). It is one of those shows that makes you ask questions, divulge into theories about morals and ethics and makes you reevaluate yourself. It is one of those shows that you binge in 4 days. SEASON 4 PART 2 SPOILER… Along with being forced to bear children, Ymir is shown being eaten by her three children in the backstory we are given.ĪOT is one of those shows that just gets better with every season. As season 4 rolls by… that’s when I’d bump up the age rating just a bit. There are clear sides to every character that we learn about. I almost want to say it gets really political. I honestly doubt a younger kid would be interested at this point but… we do get into darker themes such as oppression once the show reveals the true meaning behind the titans. Honestly… what kid doesn’t find someone using swords to fight off big creatures exciting? If the kid is uncomfortable with blood, death, or fighting… that’s the only time I’d recommend waiting to let them watch this. The humans using swords to slash these titans. The “heavy violence” I mentioned would include the titans eating humans.
Alongside the good messages that are embedded within the show, all of the relationships/ crushes are pure. If you look past the heavy violence, Attack on Titan truly is one of the cleanest animes I’ve watched. Let me start out by explaining my thought process when I say 9 year olds should be able to watch this…
