Adult animation refers to animated content specifically created for an adult audience, often featuring mature themes, humor, and complex storytelling. Unlike traditional children's animation, adult animation can explore topics such as relationships, politics, and social issues, often using satire and parody. Popular examples include shows like The Simpsons, Family Guy, and Rick and Morty. This genre can be found in various formats, including television series, films, and web series. Adult animation often employs a diverse range of animation styles, from hand-drawn to computer-generated imagery, allowing for creative expression that resonates with adult viewers.
