What is Funimation?
Funimation is a platform where you can stream the latest anime shows as well as older ones. You have to be subscribed to the Funimation platform to stream their content; the platform is not free. There are three types of accounts that you can get by subscribing to Funimation. The first account is the regular, Premium account. A monthly subscription for a standard account costs around 5 dollars, making it 50 dollars a year. The second type of account you can get in Funimation is the Premium Plus account. Now, this account is more expensive than the first one, but you also get more advantages, and more features become available to you—the subscription fee for this type of account is 8 dollars a month. And the third type of account you can have in Funimation is the Premium Plus Ultra account which brings you many different features and advantages.
What are the age restrictions?
Some shows on Funimation have age restrictions. If you are, perhaps, 13, you will not be able to watch many shows available for streaming on Funimation. For example, Attack on Titan's anime show was available for those who are 18+ years. But now, they have changed the age restriction to 21+ because they think the show is quite scary and has many violent episodes. Generally speaking, if you want to use the Funimation site, you will have to be at least thirteen to access the site. You will have to be at least 18 years old to purchase a monthly or annual subscription to Funimation. So, if you are just a kid, it is better to ask your parents for permission before you access this site.
Steps to changing age restriction on Funimation
Let's make one thing clear; you will not be able to change the age restriction range on Funimation. So, if you are 17, and the age restriction for a show you want to watch is 18+, you can try the tips below. We do not guarantee that this is going to work. Keep in mind that you will be completely responsible for watching shows that are restricted.
- One thing that can help you get access to the content that has age restrictions: You can lie about your age.
When making a new account on Funimation, set the year of birth to a higher year so that you seem older. Of course, if Funimation asks you to confirm that, you might not know how and will not be able to make an account and stream on Funimation. So, this way is not valid, and there is no guarantee that this could work, but you can, of course, try and see on your own.
That is pretty much it. Since there is no way to change the age restriction, you can only try this and hope it will work. If it does not, find another site where you can stream your anime shows.
