Anime has been growing in popularity day by day throughout the world, with many shows of this genre garnering record viewership. Anime is essentially hand-drawn or computer-generated animation finding its origin in Japan. Outside of Japan, anime refers to animation strictly produced in Japan; however, in Japan, anime is used to refer to any kind of animated work, regardless of style or origin. Animation produced outside of Japan with a similar style to Japanese anime is referred to as anime-influenced-animation.
Anime is a diverse medium with different production mediums which have adapted to technological advancements with time and combines graphic art, characterization, cinematography, and other forms of creative and individualistic techniques. The boom of anime throughout the world in the 1990s paved the way for anime clubs which organized anime conventions that were dedicated to manga and amine and included events such as cosplay. Some widely popular anime include “Naruto: Shippuden,” “Dragon Ball-Z,” “One Piece,” and “Bleach.”
