But those are not the main target crowd anyway. Not to mention at time the market was in its infancy in Japan. The main disputed period with now seem to be late 80s' to 90's versus mid-2000s to now. And instead of semi-retired fans, it was current fans who are complaining and blaming other fans that went through the same period.
Anyway that made me remember something that happen a few years ago.
One time in work I remember a few co-workers in their 50s mentioned why there isn't great family wholesome cartoon like Snoopy, Tom & Jerry, Loony Toon, etc. They went on with rants that cartoon now are all flashy, violent, etc. Then another co-worker who was a few years older in her late 20s/early 30s with kid said, "do you realized that Snoop and Loony Toon are promoting bullying? and that Tom & Jerry are cruel bloodfest?" She then went on about how at least now that the actions in cartoon are impossible to duplicate in real life and how there is no way in hell she would let her kids watching Tom & Jerry and co.
