I'm 42 myself. There are people in their 50s and 60s involved in the anime communities I'm familiar with in both Atlanta and Toronto. Japanese cartoons have been a part of global popular culture for going on sixty years now, so it's really something that has appeal to a wide range of ages.

Of course most anime is made for and aimed at children and teenagers, so it's not surprising that the kids are going to outnumber the older folks.

it is nice to know that it isn't all kids....but i still have never seen a post on a forum or the like from older persons...now i do know that a lot of older people aren't into the net...so that is more or less to be expected....
