Great, anime is japanese art of drawing cartoons, jeh.
So is there any progress making an European/US part of cartoons on this site? I'm just throwing some thoughts in!! There are lots of shows that we can put on this site which we miss out on now.

Ooo snazzy, further reading into this made me see I was wrong AAW: Essays and Editorials: Define "Anime" there's a whole essay on the topic. Good reading.

I agree, but partially, when I hear (or say) anime I think about Japan, but I always have in mind that it doesn't have to be japanese, and that - as wiki says - "In Japan, the term anime does not specify an animation's nation of origin or style; instead, it serves as a blanket term to refer to all forms of animation from around the world." (Even though Japanese under influence of west start to think the same way - commonly known borrowings from english language, and probably culture, for example english lyrics mixed very often with japanese, etc.)

Not saying that anime > cartoons (after all Disney actually had a few good ones), however I tend to agree with the idea that the term "anime" = "Japanese animation".
It's nothing personal, really. Put a good show on and I'll probably watch it regardless of what we call it. However, I have yet to see something in the western market that can directly compete with anime. That said, I'd prefer if this site just keeps doing what it has been doing, and sticking with this "japanime" niche. (lol, somehow i feel proud like i invented a word, though I'm sure it's been used before)

I don't get why you are all so bothered with the word anime. Sure, US or Earopean style of drawing is not anime, but that was not the point of this topic. We also have AC-Drama, so why not AC-Cartoon. That was the point i was trying to make, and put Avatar in there aswell (Movie comming up soon real life Avatar!!).
