As someone who outgrew the 90s cartoons mentioned by the OP not much after the 90s ended, I gotta say , it's Japan.
And not just because of its execution of ridiculously unique ideas like Berserk, Revolutionary Girl Utena, or Legend of the Galactic heroes, or Paranoia Agent. Even the mainstream stuff like Code Geass, Gurren Lagann, Naruto is done pretty well.
And for anyone under the impression that Anime movies is just Studio Ghibli, I would recommend ANYTHING by Satoshi Kon or Mamoru Hosoda.
I do think to certain age, American cartoons are certainly more enjoyable, with due to the clear-cut animations and starightforward plots. But as the target demographic rises to mid-teens and beyond, Japan really takes off.
Also, I read a post saying the cultural impact of Looney Tunes alone trumps anything out of Japan. Doraemon is the specially appointed Anime Ambassador brought in to help Japan's bid for 2020 Olympics
