I used to watch Doraemon a lot.
Yes that's it right. I get that. I get you.
I was wishing I could take care of my own Pokemon.
Doraemon and Pokemon.
Hey guys and girls on Ask Japanese it's Cathy Cat!
Japan is known as the land where anime and manga comes from.
But do Japanese people actually watch anime that much once they have grown up?
That's a question we've been asked a lot so let's go and
in the name of YouTube we should go and Ask Japanese.
That's a wrap.
What anime did you watch in your childhood.
Anpaman. He doesn't forgive injustice.
He is one of the good guys.
I watched Doraemon a lot.
He has many tools that don't exist in real life.
He keeps so many dreams alive. It was a lot of fun.
I watched PreCure.
Which PreCure?
Just PreCure.
What did you enjoy about it?
I like it when they fight.
- One Piece! - PreCure. -Sailor Moon.
What did you enjoy about these series?
How Luffy gets gradually stronger.
I watched the first generation of PreCure, so it was great to see it all start.
How cute it all is.
Yes that's it right. I get that. I get you.
Was there another anime you watched?
Chibi Maruko Chan.
It made me feel all comfortable. The whole family.
If you watched Chibi Maruko Chan I watched Sazaisan.
That makes you feel cozy too.
It's an anime that's pretty similar to Maruko.
You watch it with the family? - Yes.
Sailor Moon. - YES!
The girls are cute. Super cute.
I was wishing I could be like them.
Pokemon.
I was wishing I could take care of my own Pokemon.
Like a pet? - Yes.
- Doraemon. - Pokemon. That's about it.
I watched Pokemon too.
These anime really keep your dreams alive.
Doraemon has so many magical tools like the Hopter.
A door to take you anywhere.
I liked that you could put your monsters into a pocket.
Even if you wanna go eat crepes, you can easily put the monsters into the monster ball.
The main character Satoshi (Ask) will first loose at least once.
Makes you want to support him.
Do you know the anime Major?
It's a baseball anime.
I loved it. I watched it in Primary School.
They don't only play baseball, they also have special attacks.
I admired that.
I watched Naruto. It was really cool.
Do you still watch anime now, or not so much anymore?
Conan. - Oh Conan.
Detective Conan? (Case closed)
Do you watch it even now? - We love it.
Every week? - We generally go to watch the movies.
What do you like about Conan?
He is really cool.
Conan has been running for a long time now, hasn't it?
It is. We have been watching it since we were small.
I don't watch it in my every day.
I don't watch it much either.
I watched the movie "Your Name."
I don't watch TV anime but I watch anime that got famous or popular.
How was "Your Name."?
I thought it looked very beautiful.
The imagery. - That good?
I am glad I watched it.
I don't watch much now.
I don't watch anime anymore.
I watch anime sometimes. Right now I am watching One Piece.
What? Did you give up on watching One Piece?
I read the manga at the convenient store every week.
That's about it.
I don't watch the anime but I read the manga.
So anime movies like "Your Name." are?
I watched that one in the cinema.
I watched it too. - Me too.
"Your name" has been released at first for cinema only.
It made me curious so I watched it.
I watch it sometimes. - Yes sometimes.
Like Conan. - Yes Conan.
And one piece.
I watch some Shonen Manga series. They are quite exciting.
I love it.
What anime did you watch recently?
Recently I watched...
I wonder...
Anpaman.
I watch Anpaman every week. I watch Anpaman every week too.
They have it on TV when I wake up.
I used to watch it when I was small so I watch it now too.
I sometimes still watch Crayon Shin Chan.
I don't watch Japanese animations but Disney and such.
Frozen.
I watched Code Geass.
I watch Once Piece since my childhood.
It's a long series. It started when I was born.
I still read the manga in JUMP and the anime.
I wanna watch it until its conclusion.
I watch Gintama.
I like it when the series get really serious.
This part is really exciting so I would like to watch it until the end.
Those were our questions. Thanks so much.
So many Japanese watch the classic: Anpaman, Precure,
all those series that kids watch here in Japan when they're young.
But actually not that many keep watching Anime when they grow up
to many people's surprise.
People tend to go more to see the movies because they are more aimed
age range between children and grown up.
Similar with Disney movies that you can still enjoy when you're grown up.
And then some of the movies are actually aimed at
more adults with a different age setting.
Which in your country might be a little bit higher as well.
I know that many of you still enjoy anime so...
let me know which anime you enjoy in the comments below

I wish you a lovely day and I catch you soon on Ask Japanese. Bye!
