Bunny has seen a couple of episodes of Swort Art Online and is very...passionate... about my acquiring the show for her, because it's AWESOME. Apparently

I know very little about anime I'm afraid, barring what used to air late at night here in the nineties (which likely wouldn't be suitable). This subject did come up a while ago in a forum where I hang out though, and a lot of people recommended "Supernatural: The Anime Series", and a film called "Journey To Agartha".
As to the one that you're worried about, is it possible for you to find the relevant episode somewhere, and view it yourself first? I don't think it's at all unreasonable for you to worry about what your child watches - watching a TV series is different to reading after all, as it tends to be more graphic.
I had no idea SPN was a grown up show! People were talking about their kids, yes, but I suppose there's a big gap between a younger teen and an older one. It's an awkward age, isn't it.
Yeah, I think my favourite 'oh gods no' scene in SPN is the one where a dude gets his arm caught in a possessed garbage disposal unit. It's a gory show. I know there's a difference between cartoon violence and realistic - my mate was telling me the other day about how his 10 year old son can't watch anything graphic AT ALL but happily watches plays and watches videos of some game which sounds like it's literally just people shooting each other with high powered weapons. But I'm still not keen on too many adult concepts for Bunny yet. They grow up too soon....
I just looked up the SPN anime on Amazon, and it says: "Not rated; suitable for ages 14 and older: graphic violence, violence against women and children, grotesque imagery, animal cruelty, alcohol use, potentially offensive religious imagery." Ouch! I know I watched some pretty inappropriate things when I was a kid - we probably all do - but it's very different when you're the one in charge, isn't it. And some things are just plain nasty whatever age you are.
