Chenese and Korean garbage is already on this site, may as well include American cartoons too, why not.

You kind of missed the subtext why the prison guards were visiting Suki's cell so frequently...
The darker stuff was happening off screen, but heavy hinted.

Same goes for sex (like Sokka x Suki and Zuko x Mai totally did it on the show, just off screen).

Like most of the shounen/shoujo anime.

And here I thought Castlevania was on MAL, given how the OP question is phrased.

Everything that connects to MAL

Contains Ecchi, but not Tagged Ecchi: Part 1 || Part 2 || Part 3

@princessoftrash To be fair, not a bad argument. But would you limit it to simply mature western cartoons or just open the flood gates?
Sometimes it takes a real man to be best girl. Gilgamesh is also chad.

@AnimePedestrian Since this is not a site about anime anymore, I don't see any reason to impose any limitations. Would be funny to see anime and grotesque Soviet cartoons sharing the same site, heh.

Castlevania is too good to be on MAL, since everything here is trash.

I mean if we’re gonna include cartoons on here maybe start with ones that are actually good like Avatar the last Airbender or Arcane?

Castlevania is the epitome of “carried by animation”.

1. going by style would end up being too subjective, so mal goes by "the place it was made". and castlevania is american.

it isn't a perfect system but its a necessary one.

what is complete bull shit is the "target audience thing". that rule is utterly retarded and i really hope gets fixed sooner rather than later.

2. its a new part not s4. and even if we went by seasons, it still wouldn't be 4, it would be season 5.

Why you are so obsessed with Japan to the point where you want to use their language to describe something that is not even related to Japan ? Stop being weeb, it's not healthy.

We already have word "cartoons" which is superior in every way to "anime". The only reason to use "anime" is to not say every time "japanese cartoons" - we borrowed Japanese word to describe stuff created by them. Same way we took "Donghua" to describe "chinese cartoons".

And the fact there are Chinese and Korean stuff on MAL - yea, those are not anime either. But if we allow Castelevania to be here then we have to allow EVERY SINGLE CARTOON from entire world to be here too. And it will no longer be MAL, it will become MCL - MyCartoonsList.

@Phosphophyllita Don't you like Arcane? I thought you would like this show due to the almost Japanese level of yuri.

This must be a bait thread but I'll bite anyways, it's not an anime, anime are Japanese made animation and nothing else, in matter of fact, Korean and Chinese cartoons shouldn't be on this site too.

Inferior, actually, but whatever.

When it comes to something to be counted as a Anime two things needs to be done.

1: Created in one of this three countries, Japan, South Korea or China.
2: Either streamed or streamed in either Japan, South Korea or China.

Actually:
1: Created in this one and only country: Japan.
2: Aired/streamed in Japan.

Chinese and Korean anime-wannabe-cartoons needs to go too.

People like you are the worst once in this community, you think your opinion is correct and everything else is wrong.

"This must be a bait thread but I'll bite anyways, it's not an anime, anime are Japanese made animation and nothing else, in matter of fact, Korean and Chinese cartoons shouldn't be on this site too"

Just because your opinion is incorrect and rather garbage dosen't mean the whole world will think the same, the world is not spinning around your finger, youre not the main character, you're not even a support character in this world. You may have a opinion but that dosen't mean a shit especielly with it's incorrect and you can't even back up your own opinion with facts.

You're incorrct and nothing will change for people that is living in a tiny bubble where everything otuside of it is incorrect and that's not how life should be.

It exist a reason why korea, japanes and chines cartoon's is added into this site, and that's because they are 2 two things, creation and streamed in this three countries. That's all it needs to be to be counted as a Anime. You can't change this you will never change this your opinion is wrong and it will always be wrong.

i would recommend you go back to your bubble stay in there and get burned out, because that's the only thing you will ever be available to do in this community.

It's really sad with people that is living in this tiny bubbles, where their opinion is so wrong and garbage it makes you laugh. You will burn youself out and sitt here on the forums in a few month, a week, maybe a year or two. And ask us why i can't enjoy Anime anymore. Because you're having a opinion about things you haven't seen or tried.

Casual newbie warning, that's what this is.

I think it would be best to have separate entries for Japanese, Korean and Chinese animation, but it is what it is.
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.

Because it's not anime. If it isn't anime, it doesn't belong on MyAnimeList. Chinese and Korean cartoons shouldn't really be here either, for that matter, and I'm praying for their removal from the database at some point.
@Archean-Return By that logic, all of manga, light novels, etc should be removed as well since not anime.

@Sashhz I see a trend here. Are you calling everyone a zoomer because they all zoom past the point you're making?

That series is not made by Asians so it is not anime.
@rohan121 - It's the same art style, so that's a bizarre reason not to consider it anime. Many artists like to draw anime, many of them are just original characters that people draw. This reasoning doesn't make sense. Not that it wouldn't be a reason not to include it on MAL.

@Astachanna There is no such thing as "anime art style". Anime means Japanese animation.

@-Saphiran- Yes, I know what the word アニメ means and how Japanese use it. It makes no sense for non-Japanese to use it the same way though.

@princessoftrash I notice that the art style in anime (usually from Japan) is unique and different from other cartoons.

By the way, what anime is your avatar and signature from? I know your profile avatar is from Aoi Shiro.
