[QUOTE="WhatGravitas, post: 3917713, member: 33132"] See, generally, I'd say I don't have a real clue what anime is - I dig Witch Hunter Robin, Samurai Champloo and Azumanga. In none of these, people produce shockwaves or begin to fly around. But from the post of the thread starter, I see what many people see as anime-feeling: Over-the-top-action with colourful attack names: Considering the popularity of (back then) Dragonball or (now) Inuyasha, Bleach and Naruto, they all share some traits: Warriors flying around with attacks with spectacular displays and names. While I know that's a gross simplification and ignores MANY animes out there (as everything Miyazaki, the stuff I've named above, and other stuff I know due to friends), it's probably what people think when they think "anime", i.e. the more you know about animes, the less you actually know what this catch-all term thrown around means. Cheers, LT. [/QUOTE]
