p.s. Simba the White Lion, Gigantor the Space Age Robot, and Speed Racer were some of the original 'anime'.
Anime = Animation, in the land of the rising sun.
webster.com › dictionary › anime
: a style of animation originating in Japan that is characterized by stark colorful graphics depicting vibrant characters in action-filled plots often with fantastic or futuristic themes.
p.s. My daughter made me watch tons of anime stuff with her. Some of it is pretty entertaining.
I was partial to Inuyasha.
Personal history sidenote:
Foldie could be right about the dangers of anime, though. I still had my temporary license when our coach took us for pizza. I just had to drive the p and m's country squire station wagon (cool, right?).
After the pie party, I was racing my friend's toyota and kicking its ass, singing the theme song to Speed Racer.
Lo and behold, there was a car up ahead stopped at a stop sign.
BLAMO, KABLAM!!!
Bad, right? Woulda been worse if the car hadn't been there. Across the street from the stop sign and directly in my path was the house of the girl I had a major crush on, Deanna Pampena (deceased. RIP, my sweet angel).
That woulda' been awkward.
