I was watching Ninjago with my sister and thought a crossover would be cool.
Why so many adhd/autism folks (among many other groups in the neurodivergent and disability communities that I cannot speak for) love 'kids' cartoons so much?
Like I wonder about the psychology behind their popularity.
Could it be a form of sensory seeking? Animation tends to be more dynamic and artistic, I would argue there are more things you can do with art and drawing than with special FX and CGI (in that there is more space to experiment and mix mediums).
Maybe it's simply an escapism thing? Society is not really made to accommodate us so why would we want to see that same world we struggle to relate to in fiction?
Attached to that: a representation thing? Characters traits tend to be more exaggerated. It can be easier to understand intentions, subtext etc that we may sometimes miss IRL. Plus, I more often see coding that makes us feel seen and understood in animation than in live-action work (though I understand both are slowly changing to be more inclusive, and there is ofc my own bias towards animation that limits the information I receive).
I'm just so curious about it.
Also I realize there are plenty of folks from these communities who watch live-action work and prefer it too lol, I just see a lot of cartoon chatter online with these groups.
This is entirely familial affection, any weird takes and you will be blocked on sight
