I was about to snark that parents that give a fuck can refer to a movie's age rating but then I learnt that, until recently, it was classified in the UK as U (universal, suitable for all) because "Animation removes the realistic gory horror in the occasional scenes of violence and bloodshed". That's certainly a view. Good thing to know that I just have to animate all of the fucked-up shit in my head and that makes it okay to sell to children. (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watership_Down_(film))

Edit: 6 and up in Germany. Cool. Cool cool cool.

Only if you blur all the boobs. Remember, grotesque violence is okay but the human body is an abomination never to be seen

The Animals of Farthing Wood was the hot shit when I was in elementary school.

To be fair it is not that gory, it is mostly just genocide

Lol, stuff like Hellsing Ultimate must've given them a reality check.
