Why is there no friday the 13th/ slasher animes? why is there no "teen" anime

I feel like there's no teenage-esque feeling in anime. Compared to all the party and frat films ive seen in the US

Yeah but you don't have to be so literal and make it about anti sex. They can use their slasher metaphor for any other number of reasons. It's not a hard rule so much as an established trend.

>Sex Bad
every slasher film has hot chick showing her tits scene

And then she gets murdered.

but its still fanservice

thats just cultural differences man, the idea of Animal House esque college experience or Fast Time-esque highschool doesnt exist in japan or probably any asian countries. It is strange in anime/manga however that highschool drinking and drug use is like never shown, it goes out of its way for comedy to say that they are drinking juice when at parties.

And the hot girls showing their tits are brutally killed while the plain virgin survives

The idea of frat-houses or college dorms in general is also a pretty american thing

Ive been learning a bit about these cultural differences, and I cant believe being assertive is really just a US thing. But then Japan was pretty aggressive post WWII...right?

I havent been keeping up with world news, but is the hikikimori phenominon still a thing, Japan's population is mostly elderly? This is probably a different topic, for a different thread, a lot of what i wonder about anime or what I want to see out of it usually leads me to the culture of japan which i know nothing about

Highschool of the Dead feels like a "teen" anime

Slasher movies don't absolutely have to have sex in them, Chainsaw Massacre, made before Friday the 13th is also a slasher movie, sure the females arent virgins but still,
the violence and gore is more important
obviously sex is prevalent in them

All it would take is to make a movie or anime about a guy going around brutally killing people in a small area

>All it would take is to make a movie or anime about a guy going around brutally killing people in a small area
You seemed to have missed my point. Japan really, really couldn't handle gore. You might have thought we were still in the OVA era, but Japan can't afford to make what amounts to R rated anime anymore. Outright brutality is just not portrayed, the Japanese audience and the censors have less tolerance to that kind of stuff than Americans do.

That's why we will never get a Franken Fran anime.

Yeah, a lot Japanese are less assertive than Westeners
yeah, hikikomori is still going on in Japan
theres a lot of elderly in Japan

kind of off topic, but to say Japan can't handle gore, I've seen way more brutal and gruesome gore and violence in Japanese movies than American
Im not sure what the regulations are right not but there are anime from the 2010s that are gory

Hatchet trilogy >>>>> any 80s/90s slasher series

>Ive been learning a bit about these cultural differences, and I cant believe being assertive is really just a US thing. But then Japan was pretty aggressive post WWII...right?
An example; in America, Shigeru Miyamoto is famous as the creator of Mario, but in Japan he is just another leader in Nintendo, part of a team.
Miyamoto is the same person in both cases, but America focus on individual achievements while Japan does not.

smart move by the creators of Devilman crybaby on netflix, also a gory, "teen" anime

smart move to put Devilman crybaby on netflix*
or the only move

>series
That’s unfair because literally every slasher series always has one retarded and dumb entry.

But Crybaby also has the Yuasa artstyle where the characters barely look like humans so the gore doesn't hit the same way

If a studio wanted to make a slasher anime or movie all they would have to do is put it on netflix/give temporary rights

Japan society is extremely competitive but in a different way, I would say that stuff likeranking exam results and displaying them on the hallway for all to see is less about pushing kids to aim for the top spot and more about showing everyone else how average they are and to be content in mediocrity because they at least are not the one social pariah in the bottom of the ranking

Real question is which slasher movie character would Japs like the best for an anime/manga adaptation, I’d imagine Michael Myers would be the one who’d strike a chord with them either him or Ghostface

Don't they usually parody Jason, his mask or outright say his name?

>be content in mediocrity
that does ring well with me, why would anyone want that when instead they could achieve the highest potential possible for them
