  1. Where did that thread say anything about Wikipedia? It just explained why anime and cartoons are not separate. I can see your viewpoint. You think they are separate, I just reminded you, if you lived in reality, you'd know anime is a subset of cartoons,though very different from Western cartoons.
  2. So a white tiger and a tiger are separate animals because the other tiger is WHITE? You might as well say " White tigers are rare, have white fur, and can have have either black brown or gray stripes, therefore they are separate from tigers". Sweet 5 lb 7 oz baby Jesus in that manger REALLY? Did you even READ that thread I sent you? You need to get off Wikipedia so you get the TRUTH. It clearly states that anime and cartoons being separate things is FALSE. Anime ARE cartoons. It CLEARLY states " While anime and WESTERN animation is different, it is NOT false to say they are BOTH cartoons.." Either get educated or get off my thread. Its been PROVEN all anime are cartoons but not all cartoons are anime. Its like saying humans are not omnivores by nature.
  3. None of that changes the fact that anime is a subset of cartoons. They are not disjoint. There is no valid argument against that. What's is CALLED is NOT going to change what it IS. " The unique white coloring of a white tiger makes it a white tiger". Science doesn't give a damn what color the tiger is. It is still just that. A TIGER. Its DNA and biology is NOT going to change it into something else JUST because it looks different from other tigers. That's literally how dumb you sound when you said " anime is not cartoons because of the unique style".
  4. " Cartoon" does not always refer to kiddie American made animations. Nor dies it refer to a soecific art style. Any cartoon made in Japan is classed as " anime". Thus, Hamtaro and Kuroshitsuji's classification as both. Anime ARE cartoons. I can't believe there is even a debate about this anymore, this is a fact and not up for debate. I like how many people say a cartoon is only made in North America . This is false. By that logic, German cartoons and British cartoons are not cartoons because they were made in Europe. Maybe people that think that need to get out a little more. Although I think this was originally said to try and " prove" anime is not cartoons. Not to attack anybody or debate origin. The bottom line is anime ARE cartoons. Anybody that says different is ignorant, Just take the unique Japanese style away, make the series episodic, and anime would be just like any other cartoon. In fact, if that was the case, they probably wouldn't even earn its own special title. Seriously, anime doesn't deserve this. It doesn't deserve all these false claims and propaganda because people think cartoons are " childish". The proof here is that by definition of an animated cartoon, its laughable to claim anime is not. Every movie, TV show, or video can be classified as a cartoon, regardless where it came from or how its drawn. Anime ARE cartoons.
  5. Actually, anime ARE a subset of cartoons. They are not disjoint. A " cartoon " can refer to ANYTHING animated. It does NOT refer to animation from a specific country. So they did NOT improperly categorize it. Anims ARE cartoons, just a very different style of cartoons. This is a fact and not up for debate.anime ARE cartoons. That's the bottom line. Read here if you want the truth: http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=596803
  6. They never said anime is childish. They just said they were cartoons. I don't think they called them that to try and say they are childish since most people associate cartoon = childish. Family Guy is supposed to be an adult" American cartoon and its very childish. But I guess the fact that all anime are cartoons and not all cartoons are anime wont be altered just because I don't like it.
  7. Well, they techinically ARE. But that is not what they're called.
  8. Ok, so I used to enjoy the series Kuroshitsuji and Hamtaro. That is until somebody labeled them as " cartoons" or " Japanese cartoons". I haven't watched these shows in weeks which sucks because I really enjoyed them. This is like labeling the new animal at the zoo a deer rodent. It can't happen. I'm not sure if Japanese cartoons exist, but if they do, Hamtaro and Kuroshitsuji are not one of them.
