| They're both part of the animation medium, however what are the distinguishing characteristic that differentiate anime from cartoons ? Is it an aesthetic visual thing ? Is it a narrative structure thing ? Maybe it's character designs thing ? Or is it something else totally ?  |
| "What makes Anime different from Cartoons ?" Country of origin |
| Anime has a higher quality of thighs |
| What describes them separately, just our interpretation. For majority of countries Anime is made by far-east Asian countries, while Cartoons by others. For Japanese language [perhaps Korean and Chinesee too?] Anime means every work which is animated. |
| above all else, Japanese animation reflects the language and culture of Japan, while American animation reflect the language of culture of the US. |
| You can buy lossless digital music from your favorite Japanese artists on https://ototoy.jp/. The songs are all DRM-free and you can re-download your purchased albums as you wish. Show your support to your favorite artist if you can! ps. if you are looking for Japanese albums, you have to search it in Japanese (not romaji). Just copy and paste the name. For those who want to learn Japanese through anime Resources for learning the language |
| Mainly country of origin, anime is Japanese (Korean and Chinese aren't anime) Cartoon is American. Styles, both art and animation and character and background designs. Genres. Storytelling, story telling can be extremely different. Plots. Settings. Development of in-universe characters. Development of plots and stories. Anime tend to be more logical while the opposite is true for cartoons. Sexualization is all over the place in anime. Demographics, target audiences are completely different. But ultimately they're both the same thing by the end of the day aka animation. |
| What make Anime different from Cartoons aka Western Animation: 1) Not woke: fanservice for male and female characters are almost non-existent in most cartoons especially nowdays. Even if I'm not straight myself, I felt bad sometimes for straight males who can't enjoy female fanservice outside Anime. Also, Anime treat its own female/non-white/LGBT+ characters much better than their cartoons counterpart, they are just characters who just happen to be like that unlike their cartoon counterpart who whole personality and existence revolve around being like that. God forbid a regular everyday guy just happens to like other guys and not mold his whole personality around it! As a gay male myself, I felt disgusted by wokeness. 2) Not cringe: can't see a cartoon anymore without thinking its so cringe, even "adult" cartoons are so cringe. 3) Not limited to mostly only child audience or just comedy: everyone can watch Anime at any age. Anime is for everyone. Anime has a lot of genres. Cartoons just insult their viewers intelligence, cartoons is an insult to the human race itself. Cartoons are dead. Long to Live to Anime. |

| I don't care what anyone says, RWBY is an anime. |
| Country, culture, animation style, music, stories, tropes, etc. Pretty much everything. |
 |
| Anime is literally just Chinese cartoons. |
| Anime permits girls to have curves, breasts, and cleavage. Cartoons does not anymore. |
 |
| Nothing really. Anime is essentially just the Japanese word for anything animated regardless of country of origin. The west uses the term to refer to anything made by Japan but even then, that has proven very murky with how international the productions become over the years, with many shows now being funded by Western companies like Crunchyroll, and coproductions like Scott Pilgrim Takes Off being made more than ever. Some may say the storytelling is what defines Japanese style anime, but that has broken down over time as a lot of kids who grew up on Japanese shows are now making their own stuff around the world. Dragon Ball and Sailor Moon especially have had a MAJOR impact on Western animation, inspiring many action cartoons in the years since in terms of how they tell their stories. After Japanese anime blew up in the West, you saw a lot more serialized cartoons coming out like Ben 10, Steven Universe, Avatar the Last Airbender, etc. Sure some serialized cartoons existed before DBZ and Sailor Moon (most notably 1992's X-Men Animated Series), but the format was definitely made much more popular with the introduction of Japanese anime into the US market. Some say art style but that is definitely one of the weakest arguments. A lot of early Japanese anime were inspired a lot artistically by Western cartoons like Disney, and even then there are modern shows that have less traditional "anime styles". Shows like Panty and Stocking are well known for looking more like Western cartoons. And there are plenty of Western shows that have more Japanese inspired styles. Avatar is by far the most well known, but shows like Teen Titans, Castlevania, and the upcoming Devil May Cry Netflix series also take heavy stylistic cues from Japanese anime. Even then a lot of other Western shows have taken animation cues and stylistic elements from Japanese anime in terms of stuff like shot composition, effects, and dynamic camera angles even if they have more Western art styles. I personally believe that the line delineating "Anime" and "cartoon" just doesn't make sense in the Western definition anymore. Things have just become so blurry that I feel it leads to a lot of confusion for many people, confusion that isn't really present in the East where the term is a catch all. It's why I tend to use terms like "Japanese animation" and "Japanese anime" specifically in my statements to help avoid any confusion as to what exactly I am referring to, even if it overall may read more clunky or sound redundant to some. |

| The biggest difference between most anime and western cartoons is how is anime animated compared to most western animation. Most shows that attempt to make it anime-like fail at how the movements are made for example. I think We Baby Bears is the only anime-like show that I can tell it really copies the style almost perfectly. |

| Country of origin (Japan). Some day that it's the style, but it ain't true. If it was, many Western cartoons would be called as anime, but they are not. ATLA is a good example of an anime-stylized cartoon. |
| Anime is to over commercialized for it's own good, while cartoons tends to be screwed over by the higher ups. |

| @rohan121 This statement is disingenuous as Western animation has a variety of art styles, some more hyper stylized than others, but those with more "realistic" proportions still exist. Have you seen X-Men '97 for example? Madelyne in that show has all the qualities you just described so its unfair to say cartoons do not have certain body shapes anymore since that show literally came out this year.  |

| Anime to me is just simply all animation - all animated works, from East Asia and more specifically northeast Asia. First and foremost Japan, but extending also to all from China and South Korea as well (and North Korea if they were producing much). You're correct that it's still part of the same animation medium. It's inseparable from that, but can be considered like a subset or specific variant of it. All anime is animation, but not all animation is anime. If animation was a continent, anime would be the Central America to its North America or the Indian subcontinent to its Asia. |

@LSSJ_Gaming Aeon Flux animation is another example that blurs the line between anime and cartoon. Aeon Flux checks pretty much all the boxes for anime (except being Japanese). But, it's an anomaly, not really the norm. |
| It is made in Japan by japanese people I think there isn't much more to it |
| @Lhundrup The Madelyne example in that pic is misleading. Maddie's original Goblin Queen outfit in the comics consisted of a cropped shirt that showed off her Underboobs and a leather Loincloth that barely concealed her nether regions. '97's Maddie wears a leather leotard with a Cleavage Window which is more modest than her original ensemble, another example of Western Animation trying to censure female characters sex-appeal so rohan121 arguments are still valid as it should be. |

| Simple, different cultural influences shaped animation in Japan different. Plus Japanese stuff more frequently targets an older audience while most Western stuff is targeted at no older than preteens to early teens except when it comes to comedies. Only very recently it seems the West is trying to shift to an older audience outside of just comedy. |

| @Nurguburu For that first point. Cartoons don't have a lot of fan service, because that's not their intended purpose. Every time there is some type of fanservice, it's typically in service of some type of joke, because that is the intended purpose for most of the time. To be funny. This is why you'll tend to see more naked male characters than female. Because a naked old man or fat guy can be funny, while a naked female body isn't seen in that way under most circumstances. I'm not even going to touch the idea that female and LGBT+ characters are portrayed better in anime. for that second point. Saying anime isn't "cringe" is absolutely hilarious to me as someone who's spent years consistently watching both. Moving on. For that final point, technically anyone can enjoy cartoons too. When you say "child audience" I think Dora the Explorer or something like that, which most cartoons aren't. In fact a lot of shows geared towards a younger audience purposely slip in references that only adults would understand. And there are plenty of examples of cartoons tackling more mature subjects. The one thing I will agree with is that far too many shows focus on comedy. I will forever be pissed that a show like Young Justice got canned not once but twice, while a show like Velma was allowed to be a thing. |

| Variety. Japanese cartoons have done just about everything seen in American cartoons, but American cartoons have yet to do everything seen in Japanese cartoons. |
| その目だれの目？ |
| For me "anime" more of way to distinguish animation from Japan (also China and Korea since MAL has those is the mix) with a similar look from other animation. "Cartoon" makes things like Loony Tunes, Merry Melodies or Tom & Jerry come to mind, a short program with no overall story and 1 dimensional characterization that exists for mostly comical purposes. While I will definitely laugh at these and like them I generally prefer something more meaningful. While you can certainly find animation with serious stories and more complex characters that are not primarily comedy from other countries outside anime that your average adult will enjoy, I think it's probably the most prolific in anime. Not simply in the sheer quantity of things produced each year but also a wider variety of genres and demographics exist. For example certain genres simply don't exist in American animation. We have superheroes, comedy, fantasy, science fiction, maybe the occasional outlier that's horror...and that's about it... |

| At first it was a word needed to differentiate the animated shows from japan due to how different they were. but only the origin remains and the reason is getting muddy over time. I for one see anime as more of a style than something that only japan can make. Like I'm not going to not call Doki doki literature club an anime game. That would be so unnecessarily confusing and dumb. Like I get not calling castlevania or avatar anime cause the still have that distinct western feel to them. and I can't think of an animated show that has quite hit the nail in replicating the anime feel, but id there was one, I would call it anime. |

| Cartoon panders more to general audience like comedy mixed with sex and violence hence its called adult humor Anime is like for everyone without making show less reliant on shock factor but they are more focused on artistry and style |

different art style aka visuals and you got more lolis on anime and school settings

@FanofAction agreed but i wish there is more milfs in anime though there is too much lolis today
| @deg Sad but true. There might be a higher quantity, but anime is still lacking in milfy goodness. |

| Lol I like how people are saying that cartoons don’t have anime tiddies or thighs when the cartoon that OP is referencing literally has Ms. Sara Bellum in it xD 10/10 waifu |
 |
| art style, number of fingers, number of animation frames, language, plot, cultural references to the person who mentioned country of origin: there are non-japanese "anime" style cartoons eg castlevania and rwby as well so that isn't the only distinctive factor but it is significant |
