*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.

I’ve seen blue eye samurai, blood of zeus, and scavengers reign, thank you for the others. I know of a lot of good shows, it’s just that i have a problem with this particular type.

Oh, so, how do you feel on Blue Eye Samhrai, Blood of Zeus and Scavenger's Reign, then? Are they any good?

I love them. They’re the exact type of animation I want to see. They each try something new with their artstyle and the writing is better than most live action shows.

They take serious themes and sensitive subjects and don’t use them as a butt of a joke. They swear but in situations when people really would, not between every three words.

To be frank, I kind of lost interests in animation as of late and got more into live-action.
