It doesn't matter what is what and what isn't what! Anime shouldn't be classified as or called Cartoons, and Cartoons shouldn't be classified as or called Anime.

"Cartoon" is not the American word for "Animation"!! "Animation" is the American word for "Animation"! Cartoons are a certain style of Animaton, and Anime is another style. I don't care if "Anime" is short for "Animation", because that just says what "Anime" means, NOT what Anime is! And I'm saying that Anime IS NOT Cartoon! (yes, that's suppose to be singular)

---------------------

CARTOONS = ANIMATED FEATURE = JAPANIMATION does not mean that CARTOONS = JAPANIMATION.

There's more to Japanimation than just Japan and Animation, which includes stuff that Cartoons do not have. They are not equal.

It's too bad the world has this language barrier. It always seems to be giving us problems and misunderstandings

Anyone read The Chrysalids? Pretty good book. You see, if we all had those psychic powers, and communicated with thought shapes, these problems about definitions would never happen. But, as long as we don't have psychic, we'll just have to bear with the misunderstandings. :(

This is kinda bad to have to quote myself here....... (I'm not talking to you Anime Jedi, I'm just talking to Chef and Angel_Killer and everyone else who seems to think that Anime = Cartoons.)

saying it doesnt matter makes your point invalid, it turns it into a complete opinion.

im just going to ignore this thread from now on. i know im right, and i dont feel like explaining it over and over.

I'm going to end with:

A Japanese car is to an Anerican car like a Japanese cartoon is to an American cartoon. They are basically the same thing.

There are things that make up Cartoons that are not found in Anime, and there are certain things that make up Anime that are not found in Cartoons. They can't be equal. They're not the same, even if they're both Animation. You can't say Japanese Cartoon! Cause Anime is not a Japanese Cartoon.

---------------------

Only that first description of Animation fits Anime anyways. You know, the livelness one. Since when does all the definitions of a word apply to it at once anyways?

If I said that someone is light, that doesn't mean that they are lacking of weight, brightly colored, an object that emits rays of light, and a ray of light.
