AnimeAnime is short for Japanese animation and has been popular within the younger age group. Many Australians ask what makes anime so appealing in comparison to cartoons like SpongeBob or Simpsons. There are many differences between American cartoons and anime.
In comparison to cartoons, anime contains a large variety of types of styles in animation that normally contain more details and better special effects. Throughout the years, Japan has also adapted to the different target markets. For example, anime is produced with subtitles or dubbed in English. Some popular dubbed animes are Pokémon, Naruto, One Piece and Doraemon. By dubbing the anime, children can now watch anime at a young age and ask their parents to but the merchandise. Japan has also made many products that relate to them such as Pokemon trading cards, mini figurines, posters and even themed buses. Advertising in Japan can include various characters that are from popular anime. Many people who watch anime also prefer to draw in the same style and their artworks are posted on various social media such as Instagram, twitter, Pinterest and Paigeeworld. Fanarts have contributed in spreading the trend with thousands being posted every day. |
