How To Watch Mature Shows On Funimation

So, you're trying to watch the good stuff, huh? I get it. Funimation has some interesting anime. Not all of it is sunshine and rainbows. Some shows get a little...spicy.

Unlocking the Vault: Funimation and Mature Content

First things first, you'll need an account. A premium one, that is. Don't even try sneaking around. Funimation isn't giving away the mature goods for free. They gotta gatekeep, you know?

Age Verification: The Bouncer at the Anime Club

Then comes the age verification. It's like showing your ID to get into a club. A club full of anime villains and questionable fan service. You'll need to prove you're old enough. No faking it, kids. Be honest... mostly.

They might ask for a credit card. Or a driver's license. Be prepared to prove you're not a cartoon yourself. Just follow the instructions. It's usually pretty straightforward.

Dive In: Finding the… “Good Stuff”

Once you're verified, the world is your oyster. Or maybe, a slightly overripe mango. Depends on your taste, I guess. Now the real quest begins.

The Search Bar: Your Best Friend (And Maybe Your Worst Enemy)

Use the search bar! Obvious, right? Type in key terms. "Ecchi," "Harem," "Seinen," even. Don't be shy. Funimation knows what you're after.

You might also try searching for specific studios. Or popular shows with similar themes. It's all about experimentation. The more you search, the better your chances of finding what you crave.

The Genre Filter: Weeding Out the Kiddie Stuff

Funimation usually has genre filters. Utilize them! Look for categories like Action, Adventure, or Fantasy. But focus on the darker edges of those categories. That's where the good stuff hides.

Steer clear of "Slice of Life" unless you're looking for some very specific slices. And definitely avoid anything labeled "Kids" unless you're... well, you know.

The Unspoken Truth (My Unpopular Opinion)

Okay, here's where I get honest. Sometimes, the "mature" stuff isn't all that great. Shocking, I know. But hear me out.

A lot of it is just... excessive. Overly dramatic. Or plain weird. Sometimes you end up thinking, "I just want my time back."

Maybe I'm old-fashioned. Maybe I just have higher standards. But I'd rather have a well-written shonen anime with compelling characters. Than something explicit just for the sake of it.

Just because it's labeled "mature" doesn't mean it's good. Remember that.

Don't get me wrong. I'm not against mature themes. I just think they should serve the story. Not be the story. There is a difference.

Final Thoughts: Watch Wisely

So, go forth and explore the mature side of Funimation. Just be prepared for anything. You might find a hidden gem. Or you might find something...less than stellar.

Either way, enjoy the ride! And remember to watch responsibly. Don't blame me if you end up questioning your life choices. Happy watching!
