On Japanese forums, a Twitter post by user “ @m_hariqmaharita “, who describes herself as a mother with her underage child, became trending. The woman complained about the fact that her son's friends watched Chainsaw Man despite it being an anime only suitable for people over 16 years old.
Japan – Mother complains about children watching Chainsaw Man

In her post she wrote:
Apparently some of my son’s classmates watch “Chainsaw Man.” It seems to be the same as what happened with “Kimetsu no Yaiba”. I would like to stay away from families that allow me to watch PG-16 cartoons with impunity.
“Chainsaw Man” is a series rated for ages 16 and up. Not only is there a lot of brutality, but the protagonist's motivation to fight is the female body. I hate this kind of thing. Please don't come here and say, “If you don't let your children watch these cartoons, they will become repressed adults in the future.” That has nothing to do with it.
And of course this did not go unnoticed in the forums, inspiring opinions such as:
“You ’d be surprised if you saw it, it’s erotic and grotesque.”
“Damn elementary school kids should be watching Anpanman.”
“Well, let them watch Renai Flops, that's how men are made.”
“Your son will be a great boy in the future. Letting him watch adult series won't ruin his life.”
“Well, I know how it is. They used to forbid me from reading Shounen Jump.”
“There is a difference between “showing” and “looking”. These types of actions only demonize the series.”
“And what the hell? I don't give a fuck about your family, destroy it.”
“It’s not much different from Fist of the North Star or Dragon Ball, and it can be seen by children.”
“The episodes are really impressive. But what would a child do awake at midnight? On the contrary, you are the one who fails as a mother.”
“ Kids should watch Bocchi the Rock! .”
“Well, maybe kids should watch SPY x FAMILY.”
“Wow , that looks bad to you, what about all the kids who went to see Kimetsu no Yaiba? Mothers want to see their children become someone like Tanjiro. Maybe that’s why if they make a Chainsaw Man movie, it will never be as successful.”
“The ratings are rubbish, then there’s Kimetsu no Yaiba… full of dismemberments and deaths and kids watching.”
