In contrast to other forms of television entertainment, anime from Japan is categorized by age rating and time slots that can be screened to suit different target audiences. For instance, child-friendly anime typically airs during the golden hours of the day, while anime with more violent or sexy content is often placed in the late-night slots from 11 PM onwards or between 0 AM and 3-4 AM, depending on the network.
