    True. To me, it’s the popular perception of anime that’s the problem. Most people associate it with the op’s topics, even if that’s not everything. There’s some critical point where there’s enough weird stuff that it gets rounded up into “all anime is weird”.

      Would that be one of the legacies of guidelines like the Hays Code? That Western media is not seen as “weird”?
