Little Things you need to know about “Anime”

 

Most people on this day already heard the term “Anime” and probably most people assumed that it’s just another cartoon shows… But what does Anime really mean? It is a style of animation originating from Japan that is characterized by stark colorful graphics depicting vibrant characters in action-filled plots often with fantastic or futuristic themes as stated from Merriam Webster,(But honestly its just Japanese cartoons). Most Anime shows was centralized into one character in which the story revolves on, that character will be receiving much more character development than other characters on the show thus giving plot armor’s and making them protagonists…But some shows protagonists can be overshadowed by the other characters making their personality dull or the other character is just more interesting.

 Different Genre’s and Sub-Genre’s in Anime

In Anime there are also different types of genre in order to classify one Anime to where it belong whether if it is for example horror or action? .Some anime posses multiple genre. I will only tackle some major genre’s and sub – genre’s in Anime,here are some example:

1. ACTION

Action genre’s covers a lot of extremely high amount action packed scenes in which you will often see in this kind of genre. Sometimes bloody sometimes with cool effects. This is one of my favorite genre’s as it makes my blood pumped up with every cool scenes of every battle you will be seing here. Overall this genre really posses lots of battles as how many times i already said, watching it can make you feel a rush of adrenaline and a lot of HYPE!

Some examples of action genre anime’s:

2. COMEDY

Comedy genre anime’s core purpose and intention is to make you laugh! Sometimes the animation on this genre is poorly drawn purposely to raise the comedic value of it. If a comedy anime failed to make you laugh then i don’t know what to call it anymore, but sometimes the jokes will depend on your kind of humor to make you laugh……

Some examples of comedy genre anime’s:

• Nichijou
• Gintama
• Daily Lives of High School Boys

 

3. DRAMA

Drama anime’s… They are the anime’s that can make you feel emotional,sad, and can even bring you into tears as the genre suggested it is tear jerking sometimes associated with a death of a lovely characters that was given many many character developments and emotions.

ANIME WORLDWIDE

Anime is actually a hit in the whole world not just in japan but also the westerns, it spawned a lot of fandom and and fans in the whole wide world, and also its not always dubbed or “raw” dubbed into Japanese which will be subbed shortly, anime’s can be also available into other language dubs though it will take much more time than being subbed.Some anime’s becomes very very famous almost the whole world know’s about it even people who  doesn’t watch anime but happened to hear it, and even some anime’s that become really famous will even have a special events,parties and even have some official merchandise, it will also be used to support the anime if you would like for it to last long cause animating it is not cheap….. Also some others make’s their fandom split and break into two different sides on which will either sides they should support or even fight on who is better than one this can cause to internet war( not a real war just to see who is better) and will eventually destroy one side as it progress on the anime and show who will really the best for protagonist, the best girl,the most powerful and many more reasons….

Manga’s

Some anime’s originated in this. Manga’s are comics created in japan and as stated earlier some anime’s originated or was first seen in a manga before they got adopted as some studios use’s manga’s as source materials for a anime adaptation, though there are some exceptions in which an anime is a studio original which will be the either way being the anime first then manga or the anime and the manga both aired and released on the same day and gets updated the same time. There is also different types of manga publication being:

• Kodomo – magazines aimed at young children.
• Shōjo – magazines aimed at girls/young women.
• Shōnen – magazines aimed at boys/young men.
• Josei – magazines aimed at older women.
• Seinen – magazines aimed at older men…
