americanime

Americanime is an American cartoon with visual art influenced by Japanese animation, also known as anime. It's mostly a fad; cartoonists exploiting the recent popularity that anime has gotten in North America in the past decade or so.

It has the thin veneer of anime, but the characters, plots, and dialogue all lack the depth and clever writing of their Japanese cousin, and the stories are all episodic (with one of the exceptions being Avatar perhaps. That Americanime rivals its Japanese counterparts in writing.) In other words, it's a kid's cartoon that is drawn like an anime.

I hate that Americanime shit. It's a boring fad and doesn't hold a candle to true anime.

Port Sanilac

A failed tourist village with a population made up mostly of senior citizens. It attempts to be like Lexington but without the investment in business. It has a vibrant downtown area with 5 whole businesses, and a siren that goes off every day at noon, or when an old lady locks herself out of her house.

Person 1: I live in Port Sanilac.
Person 2: Where?
Person 1: An hour north of Port Huron.
Person 2: Oh, you mean the Florida of Michigan?
Person 1: That's the one.
