I've been wondering this for sometime and maybe /jp/ can help me out here.

How exclusive is animé to Japan? Can other nations make it like South Korea, China, and even Vietnam and Laos?

What about non-Asian countries like the United States, Canada, France, Italy, Germany, and England?

Does Japan have a monopoly on animé?

>> No.9090187

>How exclusive is animé to Japan?
By (western) definition of being Japanese animation.
>Can other nations make it like South Korea, China, and even Vietnam and Laos?
No.
>Does Japan have a monopoly on animé?
Yes.

Herp derp. They're Japanese cartoons. Of course they're exclusive to Japan.

I don't know why this is such a confusing concept for people.

Champagne vs Sparkly wine.

What's the difference? Isn't Champagne just a name of a wine?

>> No.9090389

>>9090386
Champagne is only champagne if it's made in the Champagne region of France.

A similar product made in the US is not champagne but sparkly wine.

The distinction is solely based on origin.

Except if there's no indication on the bottle guess what people are going to call it

Same with anime if regardless of if the show came from Korea, China, etc. if it looks that way and there's no indication guess what it's going to get called?

Go to /co/ and tell them Transformers,Thundercats,Silverhawks,GI fuck JOE ( american hero but drawn overseas the irony ) is not american animation and that it belongs in /a/ and they can't post it and see what they say to you.

So yes to everyone and OP if you don't know it's origin it's going to be "Anime" if you do then "Anime ja nai!"
