[box type=”tick”]Anime is an art form, specifically animation, that includes all genres found in cinema, but it can be mistakenly classified as a genre. In Japanese, the term anime refers to all forms of animation from around the world. In English, anime (/ˈænəˌmeɪ/) is more restrictively used to denote a “Japanese-style animated film or television entertainment” or as “a style of animation created in Japan”.[/box]
