Some goals of this draft: •Describe the concept of "adult animation" directly, using examples mainly to line out the history of the term's usage; •Describe the global understanding of the concept; •Minimize promotional materials like "show x is coming to platform y."
Adult animation or adult-oriented animation is a category of animated motion work that is written and created specifically for adults (as opposed to children), or is subjectively considered more "mature."
