Japan's standers for kids are different from the US. For example, Shonen anime like My Hero Academia, One Piece, Dragon Ball Super, Black Clover, etc. are for kids in Japan, but they are rated 13+ in the US. Same with Toku seeing that Gridman (1994) is rated TV-14 when the show is pretty much for kids.

I think they allow more violence and mature themes in their kids shows probably because Japan gives their kids much more of the benefit of the doubt compare to the US.
