Well, you shouldn't be. Disney bought the rights to it from Japan and decided to release it here in America. Since they're all fairly child-friendly, it was a good choice.

Oh, yes, I know that. ^^

But they didn't participate in their creation in any way though, did they?

You don't know that exactly. It could be very well possible that they did. Of course, with the exception of dubbing and such.

Oh well, I never considered that they could have. ^^

At least, I don't think Wikipedia says anything about it.

By saying "anime is not a genre", you seem to confirm it as if it's true. By style, you mean art style and such, am I right? If so, then no. Genre simply refers to a group of things that share similarities. Anime shows, for example, have a lot of similarities with each other: big eyes, similar animation techniques, all in Japan. The term "anime" (along with its predecessor "manga") simply refers to Japanese animation and comic books.

Disney, on the other hand, is a company that produces animated classics, like Snow White and Dumbo (one of my favorite movies, by the way  tongue ). However, like MyRedNeptune said, Disney is so popular that some people do consider it a genre, but this is completely biased. Disney is, in no way, a genre.

P.S. "Anime" and "manga" refer to two different things. Anime is usually a television show, while manga is a comic book.

Re: Anime is not better than Disney!

Saying its better is no fact, but opinion.

Anime has its pros and cons, Disney has the same.

I seem to recall mentioning this before. It's an opinion. I know.

Also, I'm not actually clarifying that Disney is better than anime or anime is better than Disney. I'm simply just saying that both of them are incomparable, so the debate is pretty much obsolete.  hmm

Wait, then what's the point of this topic then?

And i'm pretty sure anime/manga is a style. Yes, the big eyes, and over-expressed emotions. But that would mean cartoons are a genre. Are  Mickey Mouse and the Fairly Oddparents the same? Does a person who likes one must like the other? Nobody can really go and correctly say anime is bad. Its only a style, with every genre that a normal movie/cartoon can have. Ok, so you can say its bad, as an opinion, if your talking about the style. But you can't say every anime is the same, like a genre. For example, Horror movies are scary. Are all animes scary? Are they all funny? Are they all action-packed? They're not. Two anime series/movies can be different, and appeal to different audiences.

I don't hate anime or Disney. Both are good. Although I do favor Disney, the point of this thread is to discuss how ridiculous the debate is and if anyone agrees. Both are ridiculous because neither is the better one and that people are being stupid by arguing about it. I just stated my opinion along with it. Sorry if it was a bit confusing.

Ahem. Just because that's the name of the topic, it doesn't mean I'm saying that one is better than the other. I'm pretty much just saying none of them are better. However, the only reason I said anime is not better than Disney is because everyone keeps saying so. The point of this thread is starting to fade. Let's stay on topic.

In what part of the title does it say anime is worse? I just said it wasn't better. Both are the same in terms of entertainment.
