Scott Pilgrim Takes Off Rating Revealed

Scott Pilgrim will be coming back with a brand new anime series hitting Netflix in just a few more days, and the new Scott Pilgrim Takes Off series has revealed its rating ahead of its premiere! First starting out as a cult-classic graphic novel series before becoming a feature film with its own cult following, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, the Scott Pilgrim franchise is now branching out with a full anime series. Original creator Bryan Lee O'Malley has returned to oversee the new anime series, and the creator gave fans an update about what kind of content to expect from Scott Pilgrim Takes Off. 

Scott Pilgrim Takes Off will be releasing on Netflix in just a few more days and series creator Bryan Lee O'Malley is getting fans ready for what to expect by revealing that the anime series has been rated as TV-MA. Sharing this update with fans on Instagram, O'Malley stated the following about the rating, "Note to young people (and their parents): Scott Pilgrim Takes Off is rated TV-MA. We were informed this rating was due to Julie's swearing (we tried to bleep her, but sometimes she's just too powerful). If you (or your kid) has seen the movie or read the books, this isn't any more 'mature' than those."
