Not to sound condescending but it may just be that you're still in the target audience so you just don't notice.
i don't watch anime as i used to but animation as a medium could be as thought provoking as any drama movie or series

it's all fantasy anyway, those CSI dicks are actors not RL Cops
it's kinda silly to label "fantasy" childish seeing as we all do it and animation is still viewed as too much of a fantasy.. it's like ppl draw a line as what is too fictitious

we all think that in a way Animation is nothing but drawings but now their stories have depth
