Question: Is it anime if an American or non-asian creates it!?
I know anime is a japanese cartoon!.
But what if something was created by americans, hispanics, or black people that aren't asian!?
Would it still be considered anime!?
Or just a cartoon!?Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
It's still anime as long as
it has the same features such as big eyes, and fine lines!.
It doesn't matter who draws it!.

That's like saying:
sushi isn't sushi if a non-Japanese makes it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Technically, it is not considered authentic anime if it isn't created in Japan!. If it is created elsewhere (America, for example) then it is an anime-styled cartoon!.

In other words,
Naruto = Anime
Avatar = Not Anime

However, many fans don't care and will say that even if it is created in America, it can be considered anime!. Some fans will snap at you if you say this, though!. It's all what you think, I guess!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

who gives a **** if its a white guy, mexican,or black guy if it has everything that anime is supposed to have like the big *** eyes, the bad *** colors, and such then its anime!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

anime is the style in which it is drawn!.

as long as it looks like the anime stuff then that's what it is!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
