Like, I see this ALL THE TIME. All the time! These people insisting smugly that it’s just considered for kids because that’s the only way to get animation made in the US and that in reality it’s so much better and for adults and I just, no, stop, okay. It’s aimed at kids, though by no means exclusively. And that’s awesome, because something as well written and executed as A:TLA being aimed at kids tells children that they should expect quality from their media. If kids watch A:TLA then they get used to the idea they can expect, say, consistent character development! And themes! And good continuity! It’s age appropriate for children and appealing, and I don’t get why people don’t want kids to see something as awesome as A:TLA?
Sorry, silly A:TLA fans, but you like a kids’ cartoon. Get over it, lord. It’s fine! It can be for other people too! We can even call it family entertainment if you like!
Bolded by me for emphasis.

Personally, I love that it’s a kids’ cartoon! It means my younger cousins and I have things to talk about when we hang...

Makes me think of how bronies act about MLP:FiM. How the hell can someone even have it in their head it’s not a kid...

There are people who argue that AtLA isn’t a kid’s show? What is it that’s confusing them? The fact that it was on Nick?...

this attitude is really condescending to kids too. because hello, they’re way smarter and clever than what most adults give them credit for.
