A cartoon?
Code: | An anime (Japanese: アニメ, [aɲime] (About this sound listen), plural: anime)[a] is a Japanese hand-drawn or computer animation. The word is the abbreviated pronunciation of "animation" in Japanese, where this term references all animation |
It's anime in japan, it's animation in english.
Still means the same thing.
Just different styles from different cultures.
Japanimation is also a term.
Japanese Animation is also a term.
Anime is a nerdy name. Like thrash metal.
You don't really hear people outside of that sect calling thrash metal, trash metal. they call it metal.
