Rated R/NC-17

armitage2.jpg (8.6k)



A quick word about R/NC-17 rated anime -- I've included "official" (package-listing) "R" and "NC-17" here as well as a close approximation of the this-age-and-up ratings, using a cutoff of 16 (listing ages "15" and below as "PG/PG-13" elsewhere).




Akira   Movie
When motorcycle-gang-member Tetsuo gains uncontrollable psychic powers, the gang's leader, Kaneda, struggles to keep his friends alive before a legendary source of similar power, Akira, is awakened.
Rated R -- contains graphic violence, language, brief nudity
Armitage III  * Multiple OVA/Movie(s)
A hotshot police officer and her new partner go up against "Thirds", robots designed to appear human, and a line of assassins; but what is her own relationship to the thirds?
Rated 16+ -- contains violence, language, brief nudity
Crying Freeman   OVA (6 eps)
Brainwashed by a Chinese syndicate, a Japanese man becomes a master assassin, his only means of release the ability to cry after the job is complete. When a young woman witnesses such a job, she becomes his next target; but what will happen when they decide to join forces?
Rated 17+ -- contains graphic violence, nudity, non-explicit sexual content
Fushigi Yuugi (Mysterious Play)   Multiple TV/OVA(s)
Two friends reading a book find themselves linked to the ancient world described inside, and on opposite sides of a continental battle. Strong Neverending Story motif, without the flying muppets.
Rated 16+ -- contains violence, brief nudity
Hakkenden (Legend of the Dog Warriors)  * OVA (13 eps)
In 15th-century Japan, warring families battle for supremacy and survival; one side uses demons, while the other side has legendary half-human/half-dog warriors with the eight virtues of the samurai.
Rated 16+ -- contains graphic violence
Hellsing   TV (13 eps)
The Hellsing Organization, a group of vampire hunters, kept secret since the founder's own dealings against the undead, use the help of an original vampire to clear the streets of the night crawlers.
Rated 16+ -- contains graphic violence
Key the Metal Idol   OVA (15 eps)
A young robotic girl searches for a method of becoming human when her grandfather/creator is killed; a female Pinnochio with anime standards of super powers, robots, and idol singers.
Rated 16+ -- contains violence, brief nudity
Metal Gear   Multiple Game(s)
Military prototype robots known as vertical tanks or "Gears" are developed, and hijacked, in this PlayStation/PlayStation2 series by Hideo Kojima and Konami. Stealth is emphasized over brawn in many counter-terrorism scenarios.
ESRB Rated M (17+) -- contains violence
Now and Then, Here and There  * TV (13 eps)
A young teenager finds himself in another world trying to rescue . . . nearly everyone. Easily the darkest of the AIC/Pioneer "high-school teen in an alternate world" series, and offers quite a few twists. Originally on satellite/cable TV rather than broadcast TV.
Rated 16+ -- contains graphic violence
Serial Experiments Lain   TV (13 eps)
A shy girl gets an email from a deceased friend and finds herself drawn into the "wired" online world in a chase for sanity and reality.
