Obviously animation is only a medium, but in general it is just for kids because that is the target audience. Even in Japan the age limit is just high school. There are a lot fewer animes that are legitimately targeted at people older than that and most of them are for college kids. Just because it doesn't have the same stigma as in America doesn't mean that a thirty year old obsessed with Naruto isn't considered a loser in Japan. I agree with Urban these days. I used to love anime, but for the most part I've lost interest, with the notable exceptions of Evangelion, Hellsing, and Studio Ghibli films. I'd rather watch Toy Story or even Justice League.
