nausicaa of the valley of the wind. Its a good miyazaki'studio ghibli" film.It does have some mild violence,but the gore factore is of course very low,and the overall film could be suitable.

Actually I think it might not be that suitable because there are a lot of rather nasty looking giant bugs. If your little girl doesn't mind bugs then she'll definately enjoy this film, but if she finds bugs disgusting or scary then best avoid this till she's older. |

As much as I love Nausicaa and Mononoke, I think they may scare her. Lol, it makes her pretty mad ,too, because she really wants to see them. A couple more years maybe. Great shows and good suggestions, though.
Thanks again for all the suggestions. I've got a great list now! |

First of all, heya! Just joined...
But anyways, my little sister adores Fruits Basket and numerous other animes. However, she's only nine, and I don't know what type of anime to hook her up with, as everything I watch is totally inappropriate for her. Any suggestions? |

My Neighbour Totoro is a movie that is child friendly.

Yeah, I've shown them that. I'm looking more towards a series; something that can keep her satisfied for a week or so. She has seen Tokyo Mew Mew and Sailor Moon, and Cardcaptors... But doesn't like subtitles, so that limits her alot.

I agree.. Almost all Miyazaki movies are child friendly -- if they weren't, Kiki's Delivery Service and Spirited Away wouldn't have Disney versions. I also recommend those 2... How about WMT titles? WMT (World Masterpiece Theater) are really popular in the Philippines. They're like anime versions of classical literature works. Princess Sarah is really nice, so is Remy - Nobody's Girl.

You might want to have a look at my public lists, one of which is my list of kid-safe anime. I try to keep this updated with anime that I have shown to my own children (boys aged 4, 7 and 10) with success.
If there are any on the list that you want more detail about, from a parental point of view, feel free to ask -- here, or by PM. - abunai |

Here are two threads that may be helpful to you as well:
animenewsnetwork.com/bbs/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=332365#332365 animenewsnetwork.com/bbs/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=288785#288785 The first was by a regular user here looking for anime to use in starting up an anime club at her old Elementary School. The other (also by a regular user) was looking for something for her daughter. I hope these help you out. |

I suggest that you should around here. Religious viewpoints aside, they have very detailed descriptions of what is in the anime. This way you can judge for yourself what would be appropriate for your sister.

I find some of these ages are a little old for what I would think they are, but it does have a great guildline. (just knock off like two-three years) DRAGON BALL 15+???? (sorry, but that was on YTV back in the day, censored version, but still shouldn't be 15+) Gundam Seed 16+? do they mean the Special Edition with the "scene"? I say 12+. Evangelion is 18+? probably for the Christian motif and it does have some mature themes but not 18+. 15+ is more like it. Kamikazi Kaito Jeanne was rated 17+, wtf?????? (Christian motif that isn't accurate again?) It's so 12+ |

If you're still looking for recommendations... I would suggest Wedding Peach and Full Moon if she is a girly girl. If she is a tomboy she might like Hikaru no Go or MAR. Or she just might like them all

One of my all time favorite series is Figure 17. I didn't even consider this series as a kid friendly show when I first watched it and just enjoyed it for what it was. It wasn't until later when I saw the "age rating 7+" on the Media Blasters site that I thought to myself that it is kid safe. I usually don't watch shows aimed towards the 7+ demographic, but this series is really amazing.

I liked Takahashi Rumiko's Anthology, and there is not much in there that would be offensive to children. Some funny outtakes and a look at life, a nice show I would think.
