26+ Is Anime Japanese Different Background. No different to every other race outside of the west in general. Each genre has its own characteristics that make it unique, and will take you in a different direction when trying to learn japanese.
Samurai is japanese, if they make anime about fightin stuff, they would make taekyondo fights.(idk how to spell). Some fans claim that as pizza is the product of italian culture (like the ingredients they have readily available and their customs surrounding eating), anime is a product of japanese culture. Mobile suit gundam is the most famous one.
In japan, anime is the word used for all animation and kind of onahole.
The main difference between japanese anime and western animation is that anime targets adults just as much as children. Japan is not like anime. A wealth of different and colorful characters keep this anime engrossing with its depth and seemingly endless diversity. I love reading different sites and seeing what other people have to say about anime.
