I style of animation EXTREMELY popular in America. Anime comic books are known as "manga". I personally don't know WHAT THE HELL is so freaking INCREDIBLE about anime that makes it appears on every single freaking website you go to, let alone anything related to Japan, in case you don't notice, but anime is unquestionably popular among Americans.
"Toonami" was a bump on the Cartoon Network that mainly the anime portion of the network.

noun: a style of animation that originated and is still heavily centered in Japan.
The word 'anime' is based on the original japanese pronunciation of the american word 'animation.'
The stereotype of the anime style are characters with proportionally large eyes and hair styles and colors that are very colorful and exotic. The plots range from very immature (kiddy stuff), through teenage level, to mature (violence, content, thick plot). The classification of 'hentai' is given to animes of a stong sexual nature.
Although over 95% of anime has nothing perverted about it, most closed-minded idiots think anime is always a form of pronography.
Although most people stop watching 'cartoons' in their early teens, there are 'animes' for all age groups.

I know this definition will get voted down, because too many people here like murder, hate animals, and are overall idiots.
I always wanted to be an animal.
I mean, wouldn't it be awesome to be a chicken? You have to jump over somebody to get to where you're going, you're swimming in your own feces, you're surrounded by a shitload of other chickens and then killed at the age of 2 months... erm... okay, a pig.
You're castrated at birth and fed until you can't stand, and if you don't eat fast enough you're banged against concrete and shot if you aren't fat enough to slaughter... erm... cows?
Being constantly pregnant so you can provide milk to another species and then when you aren't "useful" enough you get to be turned into food... nope, being an animal kinda sucks.
Chickens... Eggs and "poultry"
Cows... Milk and "beef"
Pigs... "pork"
Yeah... I want to be enjoyed by people that eat me, and given French names that turn into English euphemisms...
Ahh, now that's a life.

The term used to describe Japanese animation or the art style of characters borrowed from Japanese animation.
Anime, in recent years, has enjoyed a significant boom in popularity in outside of Japan, namely in the Western world.
Although anime has interesting and unusual themes, sometimes adult (not common in most Western animation), anime doesn't really deserve the mass popularity it has gained. Most anime shows follow similar and repetetive plots and themes to eachother, and as well, anime technique on a whole is very primitive in comparison to the American school of classical animation (eg. VERY static characters, anime has walk cycles of 4 frames) and it seems the Japanese animators take as many shortcuts as possible. Humor in anime for the most part is insultingly simplistic; a character says something stupid, and everyone falls down. The sad thing is, most anime that tries to be humorous borrows the exact same gags as every other "comedy" anime.
However, there are a few artful gems which defy these stereotypes, (Miyazaki's films, namely) but on the whole anime is a overhyped genre thats sadly, killing North American cartoons off television.
Some internet nerd: "Omg AMERICAN CARTOONS SUCK! ANIME!!111"
Animation student: "You don't know what you are talking about kid."
