could watching cartoons be a sign of mental retardation? or some psychological disorder?
Trolling..? It's a valid question.Keep on trolling dude, it seems some people actually hooked despite of your blatant attempt.
Anime usually tends to be created for an adult demographic.
Cartoons usually tend to imply a younger demographic.
While satire in cartoons has managed to bridge the gap in the form of Family Guy, South Park, The Simpsons, Drawn Together etc whose primary aim is an adult demographic. There are more certainly. Then I'd wonder at the audience for Anime which do have a mature audience in mind more often.
Now the correlation here would imply whether that happens to be a viewing instrument in a persons lives that takes over their lives and is larger than life. Whereby their sense of reality is warped because of the addiction to anime. The answer is simple, everything in moderation. There are an abundance of extremes, much like computer gaming, when is the cut off for playing computer games. You'll find adults tend to be entertained by both animation and games and when it turns into the focal point. Then yes psychologically speaking there is an issue of addiction that would needs be addressed. Everything in moderation I suppose, because there is something that is being filled by such media, and it is a media of entertainment as much as the interface between viewing films and tv series alike. When you are in it, in the whole spending more time viewing said programs then yes there is a trance here. and the trance is induced by a release of stress and escapism from that which is real to the realm of that which is disproportionate to reality.
It depends on which shows, and how often they watch it. Some seem weirder than others, like Teletubbies and Dora the Explorer.
I don't think you can get too old to watch Anime every once in a while, but you are too old to be obsessed with it, watching it all the time, and buying all the paraphernalia after the age of... 25 or 30?
Why is this even a question? Why would anybody ever be too old to watch anime?
If Walt Disney was still alive, he'd probably wonder the same thing.

My mom is one of those people.Adults who ask ignorant questions. How old is TOOOOoooooooo old?
It's really annoying that nearly everyone who hears the word "Anime" seems to just think about Pokemon, Digimon, Naruto, Dragonball Z etc. . It get's especially hilarious if they are typical hollywood-action-movie-watcher who usually are more interested in effects than in a intelligent story, but they tell ME I'd be childish because I watch animes. -_-
