hello there people of SWR,
What for anime are you following and/or seen and want it to share with the community For example: 1. make a list for yourself like a top 5. 2. A opinion about the best anime that you have seen. top5 My list of good anime are: - Death Note (probably the best i ever see) - Code Geass - Naruto - Chrono Crusade - Lucky Star Best anime The best anime is of course DeathNote , with the draw-style and the story it's just perfect, people that like plots-twisting must see this anime (cannot better and has a great but sad end in it). PS: yeah, i know that i have a avatar of naruto but that means not for me that naruto is the best anime. -------------------- "If Microsoft, 20 years ago, built Windows in an open way, Linux wouldn't exist, and millions of programmers would be improving Windows rather than competing with it."

Yeah, no. Anime in Japanese simply means animation, thus Anime is Japanese animations, however nowadays it also refers to the style of Japanese animations. Cartoons doesn't just mean an animation, it is also more of a style. I would not call "The Lion King" a cartoon, it's correct category is 'animated feature' or 'animated film'. I'm kinda tired explaining this to you, so I'll just copy paste the definition of Animated Cartoons from Wikipedia: Seriously, if you look at any of those anime links I posted, and then go compare them to something like Tom & Jerry, Power Puff Girls, or something, and you can't differenciate the two, then there's no point in me explaining this. I can understand that, but I think Alias sorta countered your argument there If you're going to pull the Dictionary card, you're going to lose. According to the brilliant source of knowledge, the Oxford English dictionary, a cartoon is: Don't tell me anime isn't a sequence of drawings giving the illusion of motion because it is. Since it is, it is therefore a 'cartoon'. tl;dr: anime is a cartoon by definition ^ This is the way I see it Wikipedia isn't always reliable anyways -------------------- |
