Anime: The Arts Unabridged description

Learn about anime with iMinds insightful audio knowledge series.

Super robots to schoolgirls, Astroboy cute to violent realism, Pokemon to pornography. All of these different images, stories and types of entertainment, in cartoon form, can be called "anime".

The term anime covers an enormous range of animation. A specific definition of anime is difficult, as the style is vast, steeped in history, and ever evolving. Most often it characterizes all animation of Japanese origin - or of the Japanese style.

Anime has a long and varied production history in Japan, but principally entered the Western conscience in the 1980s. Since then, it has grown in popularity and international significance. Today it is a major and influential art form, even called a cultural paradigm, produced and consumed the world over.

Interestingly, in Japan, anime is a generic term to reference all animation styles and production from around the globe.
