AngPur | I thought we were talking about the original Batman cartoon, not Batman Beyond. | |

Chojin | Batman Beyond is as American as kimchee. Which is to say, it came from Korea, you defensive dickball. | |

DeadKennedys | Anime is what's called a loan word in japanese, a word borrowed from another language but pronounced using the extent of the japanese alphabet, and anime happens to be the equivalent of our word animation. So if you want to get technical, animation has always been anime. They call looney toons anime, we call sailor moon anime. | |

The Batman cartoon series was golden. It's not anime no matter how much you'd love to paint its fans like hypocrites. Firstly, it’s stylized. I’ll give you that. It has a regular dark, textured, monochromatic and downright gloomy feel in the background. I can’t find any anime which has a similar enough style to warrant an ‘OMG ANIME’ claim though. Even Helsing can’t lay claim to those same richly backgrounded cells. The characters too are stylized though. It’s a style that relies on few color variations, and more hard lines than a Ford concept vehicle. Hell, batman is basically a box with a curved lined on his chest. They move smooth but mechanically (it works!) and have equal stylization to their heads and bodies. Anime characters too are stylized, but differently. They tend to hold focus on the heads, especially hair and eyes. Bodies styles differ a bit more in anime, but even the more stylized are too realistic in design and motion to dare to be as bold as the Batman no frills animation style. Take all the little cheesy bits about anime; the low number of frames per second, the more limited (but oddly low contrast) palette choices, blatant fan service and the ‘effects’ (like 3 repeating frames of running while the random lines around the character move) and you don’t see them in the Batman cartoon. Basically, Batman didn’t drive a giant robot to fight crime, and the joker wasn’t a nurse. It’s not anime, and stop trying to Japan whore the world. Thanks. |

DamnthatDavid | In Batman's defense, his eyes weren't nearly as big as his face. Which makes it good ol' American Cartooning. | |
