the Rusty Cage Effect is a internet effect that I coined myself, Its when Media, Content, Song, or Game Attracts children without the intent of it being for children or not for children in general.

With this it can infect a community making a minority or Majority of the fanbase young children. this is also when other people see the fanbase with the media and influenced by the stereotype of the fanbase being mostly kids they can react negatively or positively
Guy 1: Hey wanna play Friday night funking or Gacha Club?
Guy 2: wtf arent those kids games
Guy 1: Whatever that's just the Rusty Cage Effect, These are actually good games,
Guy 1 : Plus Friday night funkin isn't for kids anyways
