That was interesting

I was wondering: if being an animator is a shitty job, animes are considered
childish and anime-otakus (don't know if it's the right term) are discriminated, why
do we have so many high quality adult productions?

With a lot of cartoons airing at night (around 2-3 afaik), I think these animes are
meant for younger adults.
So is every Japanese actually watching animes keeping his friends, his co-workers
and his family from it
or the cost of an episode is so little, that animes are used on tv as a filler for the
night hours?

Totally unrelated question: someone knows how much licensing a series cost?
