Adult animation
Cartoons for adults
Adult animation is animation intended for mature audiences rather than children, typically featuring explicit content, complex themes, or sophisticated humor inappropriate for younger viewers.
The category ranges from raunchy comedies like *South Park* to prestige dramas like *Arcane*.
I've been getting into adult animation lately—it's not just for kids anymore.
