With the development of globalization, more and more people are interested in Japanese anime. It is prevalence that everyone can easy to get access to various kinds of Japanese anime. there is a big issue that teenagers are also able to access to several Japanese anime that have unappropriated contents for teenagers. it is impossible to isolate Japanese anime from teenagers. it is necessary to let teenager and parents know that there are also positive affect that Japanese anime could bring to them. Instead of prohibiting teenager from watching Japanese anime. It will be more pragmatic to guide teenager and parents to appropriate anime and use Japanese anime in potential educational way. Although my topic is about the effect of Japanese anime on Chinese teenager, my audience will not be limited to Chinese teenagers and parents, and the educators. the website will also offer a idea of how visual material could benefit the normal literacy education, and what are the benefit that intercultural study could bring.
