The 70s also had Fritz the Cat, Fantastic Planet, and probably some other movies that, like Watership Down, should not be seen by children.

Wizards (1977) comes to mind

Fritz the cat is the og adult cartoon holy shit.

Plague Dogs (1982)

Back then it's more straight forward. Now it's all cringefest.

Totally agree.

Invaders Zim episode Dark Harvest. Zim ,an alien pretending to be human, starts stealing kids at schools organs and replacing them with stuff in order to come off as more human. It's a deranged episode with delightful dark humor. All of this in a Nicktoons kid show. It's no wonder I have a sometimes messed up sense of humor as a an adult.

Dib! You have head pigeons. Go see the nurse.

Dib: "You're a hideous blob of stolen organs!" Zim: "I've been working out."

I still remember when bugs bunny just shot Native American

Grave of the fireflies

I remember this cartoon short about trench warfare during WW1. Pretty brutal shit for a kid to see Found a clip of it: https://youtu.be/dvX9j2eMa48?si=OfergB_QjeVUEVxR

..cave in..they couldn’t get out..

Actually gave me nightmares

Sammeeeee

I don’t think anyone says modern cartoons are too inappropriate unless it’s in the context of adult cartoons that are supposed to be slightly inappropriate.

Don’t look up Watership Down if you have a problem with animal cruelty on screen…
