My favorite anime of all time is naruto. Anime is a Japanimation
Anime is so interesting since there are so many different types. It's a really broad genre.
 For simplicity, many Westerners strictly view anime as a Japanese animation product, i always have this debate with my friends.
So what exactly dictates what is and isn't anime then?
Outside Japan, "anime" refers specifically to animation from Japan or as a Japanese-disseminated animation style. so basically it's from japan or it's not anime
