I'm correcting his statement about Fire Emblem games being mostly E-rated. That's the sole reason why I'm bringing up ratings here.
No, I'm more of a happydolphin kind of thinker. I take interest in how art, narrative, and sound design play a role in determining target demographics (and vice versa), and that doesn't not preclude the notion of teenagers being attracted to the more violent video games available. When I say that Fire Emblem is aiming at a teen audience outside of Japan, it's mainly based on what I know about how anime is designed and marketed, how American teenagers (the only reference group I have at my disposal) react to certain kinds of anime (this is more based on personal experience than anything else, so I admit I could be completely wrong on this), and naturally, the content of the game itself. I simply came to the conclusion that the series seems suitied for teenagers and there's also plenty of reason for adults to enjoy it.

Fair enough. Just don't become the happydolphin kind of thinker that your perception of art etc. is universal among all adults.

I see "universal perception of art" as a contradiction. Closest possible related concept would be a general perception of art by a specific group, but that requires substantiation - preferably through statistics. If not, I'm left with careful observation.
