If Death Note is to ever air on adultswim, I'd probably get my dad to watch it. He let me get the manga and the anime still follows the story. Plus, the animation is teh awesome. It'd be perfect to show him how awesome anime can be.

Eh, my mom doesn't really care about anime. She's tried watching Avatar before, but once it's been ten episodes and she still doesn't know what's going on, it's time to pull the plug. xP
My dad has this stubborn belief that all cartoons are for kids, despite shows like Family Guy, and gory anime. I'm slowly trying to change his mind, but it's an ongoing struggle.
When I visit him, I always TiVo Avatar and watch it all the time, just to annoy him. x3

My mom's worse. She watches Avatar with my little sis quite often, but she still doesn't know any of their names.

My mom thinks that too, but my dad knows that not all anime is innocent.

I remember that my dad used to watch Dragon Ball Z with my brother and me and make jokes about it, it was fun. My mom, well, is not like she was ever carful about what we watched, I mean, I remember watching the Fugitive when I was really really young, but she was kinda ambivalent in question of anime and manga, sometimes she really freaked out with certain plots and images -like the Star Lights in Sailor Moon or the plot of Ayashi no Ceres- but right now, I'm too old for her to tell me something, but the point is, she has never liked anime, but she never stopped me from watching it, for which I'm very grateful for.

My mom makes fun of how the mouths in anime don't move a lot, and she likes making fun of some flashback/fight scenes, but she's pretty good about it. My dad actually watches a lot of the anime with me, even Blood+ and Bleach on Adult Swim. He raises his brow at a few things, but he doesn't say anything.

My dad lets me watch violence but if it's too gory, he might say something. He has something against cussing, but whenever there's some on TV, he doesn't bother changing the channel like he used to do. XD
