Too old for anime?
genimac:
55 and keep watching it, so for me no, age is not an issue. And yes life is more than anime, just do both. :)

This. One medium is not inherently greater or worse than another, simply different. It took me years to realise that some of the most thought-provoking things I'd encountered came from films and not just books like everyone kept telling me when I was younger. That said, you should try to get out a bit. Ideally being social, sure, but quite often I'll go into London on my own for a film binge in Leicester Square (four cinema's right next to Chinatown. Seriously, is there a more heavenly place?) and just getting out of the house once in a while feels good. My social life, when I'm not with the wife, largely tends to consist of hanging out with a graphic designer, a hacker, a Starcraft II nerd and a woman who once asked "when was Jesus born." Yet somehow we all get along.

Started watching anime somewhere after I passed 45, and haven't looked back since ;)

People around me always say "oh its animated, must be a cartoon for kids, grow up" but they're just hypocrits.
To me, apart from the fact it is animated, I see almost zero difference between the shit I watch and the shit they watch.
I'm 23 and neve gonna give up my decaptitating, space aliens, explosive, angst-filled dramas because someone who watches Jerry Springersays it is childish. Have you seen the shit you watch!! It's all about 'how to get into character a's pants'
At least I've got explosionz
Of course, if your anime is similar to say, telletubbies, then I'd be a bit worried
