Art is a meaningless and misleading word.
You could describe every kind of crafts or entertainment media without using that word.

I'm studying Animation and it's under 'Fine and Applied Art' section
So, yes it's art.

Art is an objective concept, just like aesthetic,so it ddepends on the person asked the question. I'd like to think a qualified answer would be yes. The art of animation is not restricted to some characters designs but also tones, storytelling, sound combination ect. If something such as A transparent public toilet is considered art, there's little doubt that a piece like Kaguya hime no monogatari fits that description as well.

Yep, it definitely is art if it's created to give a visual impression of some kind. So anime is art.
Whether it's good or bad art is another question.

Well I've been to a museum before where they displayed a large green canvas as a work of modern art.. if a piece of green cloth is art then a dot would be considered art too I guess :/

Almost everything could be considered as "art", depending on your definition.

But anime is art for sure.

"Art is a diverse range of human activities and the products of those activities, usually involving imaginative or technical skill. In their most general form these activities include the production of works of art, the criticism of art, the study of the history of art, and the aesthetic dissemination of art."

-wikipedia.

It is made by people for other people to experience, I would say it is art.

Paintings, Movies, TV shows, Literature, Manga, Anime, and Video Games, are all art.

Because if you read the OP, you should know that what he is talking about is that some person thinks that anime is borderline "not-art". He is clearly not talking about art in the literal sense.

Ppl should read the OP more.

Anyways, yes. Anime convey themes, messages, and also have different artstyles.

So, yeh.

I read the OP but I have my own definition of art. I won't change it in this thread or its definition if you ask me the question "Is this art?" just because the OP is talking about something else.

But the sole reason for this thread to exist is to talk about if Anime is an art form in the figurative sense. Specifically if it's a high-art form or not.

Your "own" definition is in a literal sense, and therefore does not comply with this thread.

a dot is a part of an art
it is one of the foundations of making an artwork
all art pieces (drwing, pnting) started in a single dot

Of course it is art, from what I understood from OP's quote the guy was trying to prove "it's not art because 'it doesn't compare' to <insert real art example> for <insert reasons>" but that doesn't mean it's not art, it would only make it "poor". He starts by saying he doesn't consider it art and ends with a: "(...) I think it's art but, I think it's a lower form of art (...)". So, all I can assume is that he just wanted to rant about "real art" when he even knew his opinion was contradicting what he was writing.

Anime/Manga from Satoshi Kon, Hayao Miyazaki, Naoki Urasawa, Shinichiro Watanabe ect i consider art.

Anime from Tetsurou Araki i consider mere entertainment.

Moe kawaii idol anime? Trash, trash of the highest degree.

What is or isn't art can be debated about till the end of time, but you're never going to come to a solid conclusion because art is subjective.

I've never really understood why people ask "is this art?", "are video games art?", "is anime art?", etc.
It just depends on the person, why even bother discussing it? You might as well be arguing over which colour you think is more worthy of being deemed a colour (and I still know some people that believe white isn't a colour, lol).
