And Steven Universe is animated in Korea, but it's not Korean
The lines are a bit blurred sometimes I’d say
Also the French make good stuff
Wakfu is a great not-quite-anime
Or as my friend calls it “bread anime”
Wakfu is my one of my faves
i mean, P&S is as inspired by american animation and culture as avatar is by japanese animation and culture
I’m watching the newest season
I’ll only watch in subs though cause the French voice acting is better for some of the characters
Like Nox
He sounds better in French
More evil crazy broken guy
if it isn't made for the japanese market, it isn't anime
simple
English one is generic villain af
let people choose their community. There's people that only like American Cartoons
let them
I like Anime and French Animation mostly
American hasn’t impressed me lately
sure, just don't call everything "Anime"
It's totally OK for people who only like one type of animation to just like that one type. I don't think anyone is saying otherwise.
But saying this Crunchyroll thing is anime just isn't true.
I don’t really
Personally, I don't treat the term "anime" as a sacred cow since it is a term used outside of Japan to distinguish it from other animation, whereas in Japan it is used for all animation. But I will up hold as technical term to distinguish anime as a spicific subset of cartoons made by the Japanese (disregarding that they sometimes cheaply outsourced labour) usually for the Japanese primarily (even if it might not be exclusively). *I type slow*
anime is a western definition
PLOT
use it with the intent it was created for the west
Diddies
otherwise call them "cartoons"
I think when it comes to art that trying to make concrete 100% definitions to define and categorize is often futile and pointless
where is the line between comic and manga
More PLOT
Manga is written the opposite direction
Same as anime, made by the Japanese for the Japanese
there are korean comics you couldn't distinguish from japanesse by anything else but names of characters
would you consider them manga ?
