But it is anime user!

It's as close as it gets. The artstyle and animation style mimicks anime though it's still distinct enough from an actual anime style. It also follows an overarching story which is pretty rare for western cartoons at the time but common in anime.

What's anime?

>Is the Last Airbender a anime?
No. It was created by Americans and primarily marketed to Americans. It's no more an anime than Totally Spies, a cartoon created by French people for a French audience.

I thought anime was a animated show in Japan. how would it count if made in the west?

anime is a style doesn't matter where it's from in the world kid

By the standards of the fucking retards at Netflix, I guess so. They call any halfway serious animated thing an anime. And they have more influence than we do, so I guess.

It's the Japanese word for animation. So they would call Looney Tunes anime. But in the West the term is almost exclusively used for Japanese cartoons. Companies like Netflix are trying to change this since they view 'cartoon' as a word associated with childish things and 'anime' associated with more adult-oriented drama and action.

no. what a shit thread

No, it is not. Nor has it ever been. Anime = cartoons from Japan. To think anything else is pure delusion.

I got a warning for "posting content not pertaining to anime or manga" when I made a similar thread on Zig Forums so I think that settles it

Lol ok kid
Lost me at Netflix

It does have a beach episode...

Technically it is since アニメ refers to all animated works.

It's overrated and have a quite retarded fanbase, so yes

You can't name a better cartoon. Don't you dare refute me by posting Steven Universe

Batman The Animated series is literally better than Avatar

Would I like it if I've never read the comics?

It's more episodic

Lmao get a load of this guy

>hurrrr my cartoon is bettah

Retards are out in force today

Here's your (you). You can go ahead and go mimi's now kid.

American influenced anime yes. Anime = a Japanese easy to reference terminology for animation. Cartoons are cartoons, i still don't understand why some people feel the need to pick sides. There's good and bad content on both sides.

Anime stylized

Nobody will ever love you, kid.

No because even though it sort of looks anime it lacks the faggy anime characterisations that the jams think is endearing or funny but is actually cringe.

I think it is, right? Isnt it made in Japan?
