Beck: Mongolian Chop Squad

Why is it rated TV-MA? Is it that bad?

One word(Well I mean I only bought the first volume), Language. Oh and maybe some slight sexual references. But I don't quite remember if there were. Anyway the language is bad, well I mean Im a little too sensitive to this stuff, but the f word was used though. Not something you'll find in a TV-14 show.

Not buying that. Thanks, I had a feeling it was b/c language.

Animedude hit the nail on the head. It's for language. The F word is peppered across some of the episodes.

Especially the first. There is almost consistent swearing in that episode, and after Volume 1 there is considerably less language. I think it's fine for 14+ with parental guidance if cursing's not an issue to you (language isn't an issue to me).

I mean, I liked the show a little bit, but once I heard the words, I was sorta thrown off. So are you really telling me the truth that there is less swearing after the first volume?

If there was less, then I would buy the other volumes. Its just that I dislike to hear swearing and Im just making sure that there is less.

It's still strong, but language is used quite a bit less. The language is still there, though; F-words are used at a frequency of one, maybe 2 per episode.
