AnimeThief Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Do you ever actually use the term "Japanese animation"? No. Almost never. I use the term anime or cartoon. But thats about it. I think people would find me obsessed if I used the term repeatedly in a conversation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimori Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 I only use it if someone doesn't know what " anime " means or is. But, to be fair its the correct way to say " anime ". Anime is basically the shortened version of " Animēshon ", which means animation. So if someone used Japanese animation instead of anime they would be far more correct, since, anime is basically just a slang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kohloo Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 I don't. Sometimes my mum and I will jokingly say, "Japanimation," though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
