I don't even know what's on that one page

[–] Nefara@lemmy.world 103 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (19 children)

Delicious in Dungeon, Frieren, Hands off my Eizouken, and Bocchi the Rock probably

Edited to add Spy x Family, and I suppose Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood depending on if one feels Winry is sexualized.

Girls Under Panzer put all the fan service into a separate series of short (under 5 mins) OVAs, so it's avoidable but does exist ...

I feel like campfire cooking would fall into this as well

As much as I fuckin love Frieren they totally sexualize Fern when she's under 18, though tbh it does feel less gross than usual considering how clothed she is & the weird relationship she has with her master

Frieren is suuuuuper jealous of Fern once she starts developing (with the show repeatedly using camera angles to show it) and Fern's 18th birthday is in the later half of the first season. It was funny and rather realistic having been around girls that behaved like that, but as an adult man it was obvious the camera had a serious liking of staring at Fern's chest whenever it could

My daughter (11) wants to watch more anime than what's on Netflix. Are these good for girls that age, you'd guess?

[–] missingno@fedia.io 13 points 2 months ago (5 children)

Frieren is very violent. Amazing show, but definitely not for kids.

Bocchi has exactly one fanservice gag I can recall, but it's a fairly tame one. Probably fine, the whole rest of the show has nothing else inappropriate I can think of. It is sub-only though, so I guess it really depends on whether she's fine with reading subtitles?

Delicious in Dungeon, some violence but nothing gory, compared to Frieren I don't think it's too much.

I haven't seen the other one that was mentioned so I can't speak for it.

Honestly I'd say it depends on your daughter and what you think she can handle. I'm not a parent, so it's hard for me to judge. Maybe screen a few episodes for yourself and decide what you think is appropriate?

Edit: Though just to add one more nomination for you, Little Witch Academia immediately comes to mind as a show I think would be absolutely perfect for that age.

My 11 year old sister's recommendation for 11 year old girls: Sk8 the Infinity

It's a campy sports anime about an underground skateboarding gang where people skate "to the death" (nobody dies).

It's on Crunchyroll or wherever you get your anime ;)

Full Metal Alchemist brotherhood, maybe.

[–] SpicyColdFartChamber@lemm.ee 13 points 2 months ago

Yup it's only one I can think of in the good animes that doesn't glorify unhealthy relationships.

Them learning to let go of their mom was good. Very rare.

How you got this many replies without a single mention of Cowboy Bebop is beyond me.

[–] Strider@thelemmy.club 23 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I love Cowboy Bebop but that series is one giant unhealthy relationship.

[–] Cypher@lemmy.world 28 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I don’t think it glorifies unhealthy relationships but it definitely features them

[–] Olhonestjim@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

It also depicts racial minorities often kinda poorly, at least artistically. It's been a while though. I don't remember it treating them badly plotwise, just made some of them look like caricatures.

[–] Diva@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 months ago

madoka is great too but same problem lmao

[–] devfuuu@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)
[–] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 5 points 2 months ago

Vash & Knives have an unhealthy relationship, because of Rem.

[–] NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.io 14 points 2 months ago (33 children)

Eh, they exist. You've got classics like Death Note and more recent stuff like Frieren. It's definitely a short list though.

[–] unexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.de 19 points 2 months ago

All the classics like the Ghibli stuff. Lots of more serious stuff doesnt have those issues either like Vinland Saga or Attack on Titan. Also cute stuff like Yuru Camp.

[–] Nikelui@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago

It's not that short, you just need to pick a genre different from shounen if you don't like fanservice. Also many older shounen are good, think about the Digimon, Pokémon and Gundam franchises to name a few famous ones.

You've never seen Spice and Wolf? Chihayafuru? Hibike! Euphonium? Mushishi? Samurai Champloo? Death Note? Inferno Cop?

[–] lastunusedusername2@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Okay but Death Note is nothing but unhealthy relationships

Full metal Alchemist is my bet.

Otherwise I know a lot of good animes but they tend to glorify unhealthy relationships looks at the space cowboy murdering people.

Just gonna forget about the rape ape are we?

[–] Nikelui@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago

The one enemy that appears briefly before getting beaten up into oblivion?

I agree that a lot of dark stuff happens in Jojo (heck, the protagonist of the 5th saga is a mafia boss), maybe it's best for mature audiences.
