Anime That Are Banned In Several Countries

The anime ‘Death Note’ centers around a student who discovers a supernatural notebook that allows him to kill criminals, with the goal of creating a crime-free world. However, the show sparked controversy and was banned in countries like China due to fears it would encourage bad behavior in young people. Concerns were also raised by parents and teachers who worried students would create their own lists, targeting classmates or teachers. Because of its intense psychological themes, strict rules were put in place to discourage viewers from copying the main character’s actions. ‘Death Note’ is now a well-known example of anime censorship and its strong influence on youth culture.
