Adv1sor 0 Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 Hellsing OVA; AMV Hell; the last episode of Excel Saga; I enjoyed all of these and more this weekend, but, I wouldn't want to see Otakon get into trouble here. These shows are R rated, no way around it. Are there are things other than hentia that might should be 18+? Link to post Share on other sites
neochichiri 0 Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 I wouldn't exactly say that AMV Hell is 18+, unless you're referring to AMV Hell 0. The other 4 are 13+ at most...after AMVH 0, the worst was AMVH2. Link to post Share on other sites

Adv1sor 0 Posted August 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 Well, you are right, they aren't R their MA. Add Afro Samuri to the list too. Like I said, I'm all in favor of these shows I just wouldn't want to see Otakon get into trouble here. Link to post Share on other sites

Cousinsue 0 Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 Keep in mind that 18+ means no exceptions. It would mean I can't choose to take my kids to see Hellsing Plus, even if we've watched the entire series at home, and they've read (with my supervision) the manga. We do try to give a warning to some items to let parents know that they might not be advisable for children. Link to post Share on other sites

Shadaki 0 Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 Well if we're talking about R rated things, you just need to be 17:P None of these things are Rated R to my knowledge. The MPAA assigns ratings to movies which they screen. However, these ratings are very arbitrary and often influenced by corporate interests rather than any kind of community standards. If you're talking about the content being inappropriate for some viewers, I believe that Otakon does mention in the booklet that some shows and panels may be inappropriate for some viewers, though a sign in front of rooms/panels showing such material may be in order. The 18+ restrictions come from, I believe, legal issues involving "subjecting" minors to sexually explicit materials. (Though int he case of th e"What's a Naruto?" panel, it was to keep the kiddies out. Link to post Share on other sites
