Who the fuck says anime has to originate from japan. It'a an animated story with various seasons. Cartoons are stupid like "Spongebob". Does anyone agree?

The word 'cartoon' came about due to the fact that the first pictures drawn for entertainment were drawn on discarded food 'cartons'-- sadly it's been reduced to describe shows for children.

Manga is officially considered an art style. For quite some time anime was actually called "Manga Eiga" (TV Manga), but the word anime was adopted later, likely derived from the English word "animation".

While both Manga and Anime both originated in Japan, just like any artstyle, outside artists can adopt the style regardless their own origins. Thusly, anime can be created outside Japan's sphere of influence, just so long as it adheres to the characteristics that define the form.

So wait do you agree that "Avatar" can be considered as anime?

I didn't make the comment you're referring to, but most "American" animation these days isn't even drawn in America, it's planned and produced here (story, script, voice etc) and shipped to Asia for finishing (Japan, Korea etc). I'd go 50/50 with you-- I'd agree with someone saying it's anime, but it falls into a pretty big gray area. =/

Arguing over the definition of anime (whether it is determined by content or place of origin) is pointless as it can't be proven either way. Though most people I know will say it is place of origin.

But going by 4chan rules, walls here should be noticeably tied to Japanese culture. So take this shit to /wg/

Anime does not have to be drawn in Japan to be anime. Anime is an art form, just like origami, yet lots of origami designs have been created in other parts of the world. Doesn't mean it's no longer origami.

If the style adheres to the characteristics of anime, it can still be considered anime. But though anime IS officially an art form, that doesn't mean the rules that define it are very clear. A lot of things can be considered anime that can also be considered other things. It's fairly gray.

All in all, Avatar could be considered an anime. It can also be considered a cartoon, like all anime can.

tl;dr who the fuck cares what it's called?!

But dont japanese call stuff lke work of Disney anime+ Tezuka used the work of Walt for his animations, giving them big eyes like Walt did with Bambi, Micky Mouse ect. Since Osuma is the 'father of anime/manga' and the people after him copied his style(till we know it nowaday) they all copied Disney, thus making everything Anime, like the japanese do. So Avatar is 'anime'.

TL;DR Avatar is anime

The rules say

"Wallpapers should be distinctly anime or J-pop related. They can be real world pictures, just make sure they're noticeably tied to Japanese culture."

And if you watched the anime you would know that "Avatar" is completely tied to japanese culture. I wanna thank the ones that posted walls. Please continue.

I never knew the phrase "stepping up" was related to you young hipsters and your break dance show downs now. I must be getting old. I'm used to the more traditionalist sense of the word, in which it means "to make progress; improve" (1).
