  As a huge cartoon lover myself, I can say that most cartoons certainly aren't just for kids.  Most cartoons have relatable plots, characters, and setups, which even teenagers can appreciate.  Also, most people forget that anime is just another word for Japanese cartoons, which are most certainly not for a younger crowd.  I've watched both Attack on Titan and Fairy Tail and I can safely say the material there isn't your eight year old younger brother.  There is tons of adult content on those shows, such as drinking and high amounts of gore.  Regular cartoons can sometimes fall into the same category, not quite reaching the intense levels that anime has, but still not for children.  That is why I find the cliche of people thinking cartoons are exclusive for kids silly.  Sure, they can be bright and over the top, but they are just another form of media like their live action cousins.
