Moreno,
it was easier back in the days when "cartoons" were for kids, always! My dad could glance at a movie poster and see that it was an animated movie and take us kids out to the movie theater, no problem, and know we were going to love it.
Then those pesky Japanese came and muddled the waters! Young-adult oriented anime? Adult oriented anime? What?!
Dads these days don't have it easy! Unable to just glance at a movie poster they may have to ask their friends and acquaintances about a movie and (gasp!) trust their judgment, or even (double-gasp!) trust their kids' own judgment of what they think is entertaining, risking they're not actually entertained and/or having to (triple-gasp!) talk with them thereafter.
This makes R go "Not *actually* my life-story."
