A good deal of francophone BD is written for older teenagers or even adults. Even American cartoons such as Red Hot Riding Hood were not really for children either, for that matter.

Incidentally, the animes I mentioned are listed on the Récré A2 wikipedia entry (*). The English names are somewhat different, but the links lead to pages which have an English version, eg

• Albator -> Captain Harlock, a Space Pirate. I don't follow anime much, but apparently this has become quite a cult series with several sequels/reboots.
• Captain Future. This Japanese anime was an adaptation of a series of American science fiction stories published in the 1940s pulp magazines.

(*) The presenter, Dorothée, was a towering figure in French kids (**) television for a long time.

(**) British ET readers may find it helpful (or not) to think of Sarah Jane Honeywell.
