What set anime apart from other cartoons from you?

As a kid, i remember mostly not thinking Yugioh and Pokemon were anything different than a typical action type cartoon like Static Shock or Teen Titans i saw at the time

That's also what i associated them with, DBZ and all the others i just assumed they were like those action cartoons. Then i saw people getting killed and cut up and then i started thinking it was something special and different

I also really loved how they actually had continuity and told continuous stories rather then being episodic

We're freaking out that we're running out of time, but to do what? Should i stop and think of that? Is there something i could do to slow it down? Live in a day for once, instead of watch it sprinting by

Ecchi moments, there's no other media that dares to show such content.

Probably the heavy themes that they tackle a lot of the times and the liberties that they have in how they want to tell their stories. Also they aren't episodic.

Initially it was a coherent story instead of disconnected episodic entertainment. But as I delved further and further into anime, I discovered so many new things I never knew could be shown in animated media - gore, ecchi, psychological warfare, etc.

Story continuity in Anime rather than separate episodes with maybe occasional references to past ones with cartoons.
Also ecchi themes, stuff like pantyshots especially, either used in a titillating way or just an everyday way as part of the clothing.
These were a big reason why I even started watching anime and I very rarely see stuff like that in any kind of media besides adult stuff.
