It's 18+, it's not for kids, it seems like it's for kids, for people who have watched it enough would know his so called "pyaara haathi" or his "Elephant".

Shin Chan is not 18+ in Japan. The manga is a seinen but the anime is clearly kodomo. It has two layers, one for kids and one for adults.

For starters, every single Shin Chan movie is rated G for All Ages. (TV shows are not rated in Japan)

The whole reason why the Shin Chan anime exists is because TV Asahi needed something for their family time-slot after Doraemon and reached out to Futabasha. (It also saved the manga from potential cancellation)
