Don’t get me wrong sour cream is good especially in tostadas but come on. It would be like me putting mustard in Sushi.

Oh come now, both wasabi and hot mustard are common condiments for sushi, with many of the cheaper brands of wasabi just being flavored hot mustard...

Were drifting too far from the main topic folks, time to get back on track...

dude i tottaly think its an anime! i wanted to hear other people thoughts on it and its lack of certian elements and i know chibi doesnt make or break an anime but theres other things they dont put as well. kust too lazy to write them

god

i was saying TECHNICALLY the kwy word being TECHNICALLY

and again off topic?

tsk tsk len in my other thread u let it get quite of topic too!

that sucks! I was beliveing that too. oh well its not the end of the world!

anime is the French word for animate or animation which encompasses both the japanese style and american style. While I see both Tsu and Len's points I will have to say that trying to be "technically" correct is dumb in this sense as the definition (much like that of Ecchi or Otaku) varies from region to region.

Like Mr. Miyata quoted, I only apply it to animation which originated in Japan.
When you talk about anime you're talking about the Japanese stuff. It's handy to differentiate.
