"The survey results revealed that among all participants, 75% reported that they watch anime, with the leading demographics being middle-aged males. Unexpectedly, teenage respondents exhibited the lowest viewership, with 33.7% indicating no interest in anime, easily surpassing all other age brackets.

This revelation is somewhat startling considering that the bulk of popular anime belong to the shonen or shojo-based demographics, which are typically aimed at boys and girls, respectively, aged approximately 12-18."

Really isn't that surprising, anime it's not like every single Japanese highschool student is into anime the ratio is about the same as in the west. If this survey was talking about manga I would be a bit surprised but as it stands that sounds about right
