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.

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?

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

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.
