Wikipedia is not reliable, Webster is. Watch me make Wikipedia say that Anime is full of shit...

Clearly, you are all ignorant.

would you plz go troll else where you're just making a fool of yourself at this point just drop it. you lost, game over we've given enough substantial proof and all you're doing is making childish insults with no counter point.

if the mods allowed it ... it should be here, maybe you should troll something else... because even though this is not japanese style it is still anime, or at least a form of it. at least it has a storyline from one episode to the next that to me proves it is an anime. now less bullshit more pictures

I gave Websters definition, and like I pointed out you cut out the first portion to edit it and give weight to your shitty argument.

Here it is in all it's uneditied glory since you can't seem to read.

So really, since your using the history of the word, and not its active definition, your wrong =3

Also, I was a dick by pointing out the public schoolers.

Only one reply here has cited a reputable source, and stated so, which is also needed. Wikipedia is, despite its bibliography section being nice, not accurate.

The one who stated that simply because the word originated in japan means it exclusively applies to things From there is the one who made the one valid argument, which was more a misuse of the etymology of the word Anime.

By definition of Anime, it applies to multicultural 'cartoons.' Just because the common folk restrict it to specifically Japanese cartoons does not make it right to use the word in that way.

Eventually, once Webster pays attention, they will change the definition to a more socially normal meaning, such as 'focused mainly at Asian oriented cartoons.'

Example, Webster actually has the word Gay meaning something of or relating to a homosexual.

So, if I use the word 'Faggot' and mean specifically the Orthodox Christian members of the West Coat of America, that does not mean that Faggot means that for every use of the word, unless explained before in the conversation/report.

Also,

1. 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.
2. Image quality is a must. A minimum resolution of 800x600 pixels is enforced on this board.
"

The rules just say Anime OR J-Pop related.

Anime is a vague word now.

Isn't this just a case of you arguing for the sake of it? No one is assisting with your plea by posting wallpapers and most people here seem to agree that VB is NOT anime. Either way this thread just seems redundant so move along people
