7 adult animation series that you can watch now on HBO Max

HBO Max is home to some of the most legendary series in history, such as The Sopranos or Blood Brothers . However, animation fans also have a few gems in the platform’s catalogue. Today, we show you 7 animated series for adults that you can watch on HBO Max and we especially recommend.

It is not usual to associate the terms HBO and animated series, taking into account the huge catalog of live-action hits for which the channel is known.

However, the HBO Max streaming platform has very good animated series for adults and we especially recommend these 7.

7. Rick and Morty, the series most idolized by many geeks

It is impossible not to talk about this series, probably the most overrated and with one of the most snobbish and heavy fandoms out there. So I get her out of the way as soon as possible and let the stones come.

The truth is that, despite my opinion, it is a mass phenomenon (in the geek world , of course) and that HBO Max has all 5 seasons . You are already taking time if you are one of the many fans of it.

6. Robot Chicken, the classic from Adult Swim

Robot Chicken is a classic stop-motion animation created by Seth Green . Already a veteran, on HBO Max you have 11 seasons with multiple episodes each, about 10 minutes long, so you can gorge yourself without much conscience.

Hooligan references of all kinds to popular culture and celebrity (some quite out of date, really), with a touch not suitable for children.

5. Spawn, Todd McFarlane’s legendary superhero

If you are a fan of superheroes, but want an adult approach, the animated series Spawn is what you are looking for. You have 3 seasons on HBO Max , with episodes of just under half an hour long.

Todd McFarlane created a superhero , a word I just made up, in a context where heaven and hell wage war, the prize of which is human souls. The series is already somewhat old, from the late 90s, but it is much better than you may think at first glance.

Current stories

4. Running Stories, from Cartoon Network

Running Stories is a bit like SpongeBob SquarePants, that series purportedly for children that adults enjoy much more . With an eighties tone, which will delight those of us who never grew up, Mordecai, a blue jay, and Rigby, a raccoon, try to get away from everything, work as little as possible and dedicate themselves to lazing and playing.

Although it seems like a reality show from the writing of El Output, they always end up in bizarre, fantastic and science fiction stories.

3. Spicy City, animation for adults only

Unlike the previous one, Spicy City is only for people over 18 years old. Miniseries of 6 episodes, it places us in a strange retro-futuristic world, where violence and sex are the norm of the episodes.

Frankly curious and not recommended to see with your children or nephews.

2. Blade Runner, The Black Lotus

Cyberpunk – themed computer animation has its candidate in this series based on the world of Blade Runner .

In it, a young woman who has lost her memory but has spectacular fighting skills tries to figure out who she is, a bit Jason Bourne-esque. One season, 8 episodes and 20 minutes per chapter. Curious.

Animals by HBO

1. Animals, the life of the animals of New York

Perhaps the most intriguing option of all. Animals is an adult animated series from HBO that portrays the lives of different New York animals , but with an interesting twist.

Pigeons that question life and broken-hearted mice serve to reflect on the most important questions that we all ask ourselves. From the same animation studio as the Anomalisa movie , it is without a doubt the most gourmet gem. Precisely for that reason, it will not be to everyone’s taste.

As you can see, there is no shortage of adult animation series on HBO Max. So now you know, pop the popcorn and binge, while everyone around you thinks (rightly) that you will never grow up.
