H222G981 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 (edited) Do you ever actually use the term "Japanese animation"? No. Almost never. I use the term anime or cartoon. But thats about it. I get corrected by anime fans all of the time for it. I think its just their way of not wanting to admit that they do have an obsession with cartoons seeing as all cartoons are animated.

Matt Bellamy Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 I use it occasionally, because, believe it or not, there are still people in the world who do not know the term "Anime". I know, blasphemy, right? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannibal Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 (edited) When talking about any animation in real life I only use the Russian equivalent of the term "animated cartoons" - "мультики" (from lat.: multiplicatio) - something like a hypocorism of "animated films". Not only because some people still don't know what "anime" means, but more because I don't think that the animation needs more than one name. But I have "Anime" and "Japanese animation" written right on my Guyver World forum board Edited December 23, 2015 by Cannibal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TricoBren Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 I always use "Japanese Animation" because I'm allergic to weeaboos and anybody else that insists on using Japanese words for anything that is from Japan. Sorry, I'm old school like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
