American "Anime"?

[takeya]

I just have a quick question about American "Anime". I saw Avatar on here, and I couldnt find anything int the rules about uploading and sharing American shows. If its allowed, I can share like Futurama, ATHF, Invader Zim, or Family Guy. Just figured Id ask before I do!

[MMao]

juz share if u wanna share, as long as itz anime and not break the rulez

american....hmmm..........naw I remember afro samurai...........

[takeya]

Haha Alright then. Itll take me a bit to rip DVDs and such but expect them up in the near future.

[Urufu]

you can prolly put american cartoons in the random upload section if you want...

[jon1230]

i definately want family guy while ur at it do american dad

[reminder]

Just a little warning, but ANYTHING that comes from US of A is not considered to be anime by true otakus.

Not that I say that I don't like cartoons... if there were more people eager to upload them, maybe a section for them would be made.

I agree, Anime Means "Japanese Animation" If ti's "American Animation", it's not Anime ^.^
Some like Avatar, May be Anime Style, but it wasn't made in Japan, so it isn't Anime ^.^

[takeya]

Yeah I know about the anime vs cartoons thing Thats why I put it in quotes :P. I only called it anime cause its an anime forum. Ill get on right on em.

[MMao]

mmmmmm..........how bout anime collaboration from both japan and america???

[Faeyice]

There is no such thing as 'American anime' as anime is a Japanese cartoon. There is American anime imitations, but Avatar isn't an anime imitation. Since this is an anime forum, I don't think you should be putting downloads for anything other than anime.

[BreakTheChains]

Yeah people can call it American Anime but it's not even close. There hasn't been even a second where I was as sucked into an american cartoon like I can get with anime.

[SMG666]

Funny, I just remember a south park episode 'good times with weapons'.
Wonder if that would classify as 'american anime'?:XD:

[avalon7]

LOL if is not from japan it cannot be called anime, is just animation!

[almozayaf]

mmmmmm..........how bout anime collaboration from both japan and america???

Well, I may be double posting but I'm going to sum it up.

If you do a search on "what is anime" or "anime introduction" using a web search engine, you'll find tons of links and descriptions. So, what is anime? Anime is the most common word used by fans to refer to Japanese Animation.

Is anime the same as cartoon? Technically yes, however for anime fans, anime is not cartoon. See the definition above, anime refers to Japanese animation. So, the rule of thumb is as simple as: if it's not originated from Japan then it's not an anime (while the contrary is not true).

People usually think that anime is the animated version of japanese comic (manga). While in most cases this is true, however, not all anime is based on manga. For example, some anime are based on video games like Sakura Taisen and Tales of Eternia.

And what's with the "Anime is Anime"?

[crystalalien8]

[Plun]

isnt teen titans an American show?

It's an American animated television series.

[Archenix]

Anime was a word created in Japan, it means animation, and in America, it would just be called animation, so it's not really anime, but they used forms of martial arts from China and Japan.
