I’m now being reminded of this.

@ASHOT3359  
That’s ain’t funny and that comment that you posted have been deleted too. Probably because it’s doesn’t sound like a joke, looks like you are bad at joking. Also I am Indonesian not American.

@CyanLightning  
It was a joke. Silly sensitive american men.

Anime is short for Animeshun, which is based on the English word Animation, the earliest anime were anime were inspired by the earliest American cartoons from the 1930’s, anime is litterally just Japanese for cartoon, you weebs

Oh shit, this was me, and I spoke the truth

Do you smell that? Smells like HERESY!

“typically aimed at adults as well as children.”  
This is what I keep hearing people say, but that’s not any more true than it is in the west these days. Anime tends to be more mature in general as they treat children as being a lot more intelligent. Still aimed at children most the time though.
 
We do owe them though for their more adult stuff, since it paved the way for the west to start making shows like Rick and Morty. To show there is an audience out there for mature cartoons.

Okay apology accepted.

@CyanLightning  
I apologize, I thought you were replying to my comment. You are correct in your mockery of your target.

@Background Pony #727D  
And what you are really contribute to this discussion anyway?. You just here calling me that what i said is not true like a children without any proof what so ever. next time try to bring some proof before calling me right or wrong. before that i am not going to take you seriously.
 
@Background Pony #0874  
Oh great you are joking actually and based your assumption on a joke. while I am taking you seriously. Good.

@CyanLightning  
You can say whatever you like, but that doesn’t make it true.

@CyanLightning
 
No no, see Malaysia and Indonesia are also both parts of China.

So that mean that I can say that Malaysia is The type of Indonesia. They are Different country.

Japanese is a type of Chinese.

So if i am calling Tiger From Asia as “Asian Tiger”, that make me racist toward that tiger. Good. you know look definition of Racist “a person who believes that a particular race is superior to another.”, so unless if believe that Western Animation is Superior than Japanese. there is no reason to call me Racist what so ever including that i am calling it Japanese Cartoon as “Anime” or whatever. also note that it’s for a Race which is ““Race, as a social construct, is a group of people who share similar and distinct physical characteristics.[](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race_(human_categorization)), so it’s not a valid word to describe other thing than a human.

@Background Pony #727D  
This,

@Background Pony #727D  

Good sir, you fail at basic logic!
 
Stating things like this, would mean that anime are cartoons, and cartoons are anime. Such is indeed false!
 
‘Cartoon’ is the medium.  
‘Anime’ is a style, a genre, a subset, of cartoon.  
QED  
Anime is always a cartoon, but a cartoon is not always anime.

You know I rather call it. Japanese Animated Series and Western Animated Series, Because both are Animated Series.

Japanese Cartoons*

So is this the new medium for shitposting now?

Not just any cartoons, chinese cartoons.
