Anime

Anime is a style of animation that originated in Japan and encompasses a wide range of genres and themes. It is characterized by its colorful artwork, fantastical themes, and vibrant characters. Unlike Western animation, which is often aimed primarily at children, anime targets diverse audiences, including adults, with storytelling that can be serious, complex, or whimsical. The term “anime” is derived from the English word “animation,” but in Japan, it refers to all animated works regardless of origin. Anime can be produced in various formats, including TV series, films, and web series, and it often features distinctive visual techniques, such as exaggerated facial expressions, fast-paced action, and rich world-building. The medium has garnered a global following, influencing art, fashion, and popular culture worldwide.
