If Sailor Moon is supposedly only aimed at little girls, why does it have a meta gag about an old otaku watching it?
otaku and little girls live in the same worldwhy didn't you ask about the frame with marriage? kids can't get married
>>287541846Because it's a gag, obviously she's implying she'd be older by then, but she still looks like the character to be recognizable.
>>287541796For one thing it isn't; it was a family show that aired on Saturday evenings.For another, plenty of shows for kids have far weirder jokes that the target audience couldn't reasonably be expected to get as anything other than absurdism.
They didn't have to go this hard with the oyakodon bait in SuperS.
>>287541796It's called broad appeal. Back in the day when shows aired on TV they had a little bit for everyone.
>>287541796Because they’re laughing at otaku
>>287547195Laughing at them by saying they watch their show?
>>287547323Yes, especially if you spend money on their merch.
>>287547323I don't think that's how it works
>>287541796it's the old joke about that specific type of classic otaku who almost exclusively watch mahou shoujo or just shows for young girls
>>287541796Because old otaku are little girls deep down.
