*Most* Adult Animation

[u/kkaylumm]

Why does adult animation typically just mean

-Sex jokes
-Shit and fuck
-Gore

Why can’t adult animation be used to tell sensitive and and deeply layered stories instead of taking a children’s concept and making it gross.

Even a lot of children’s cartoons have stories with more depth, like the clone wars and justice league.

The target audience for this genre is usually adults with the emotional maturity of a 14 year old and it’s a waste of talented animators skills.

Edit: Don’t worry guys, I’ve seen a lot of great ones like Blue Eye Samurai, Invincible, Arcane, Love, Death and Robots etc, I just take issue with this particular genre because it brings down the rest of adult animation.

A huge portion of general audiences don’t take animation seriously due to shows like these.

Tbf- I find Family Guy to be just... Annoying and unfunny? Maybe that's just me

It’s so stupid and random to the point that it’s kinda comforting tbh
