There are several elements to look at
when reviewing animation. The first is visual motive. Since this is the first
thing people will usually look for, you must realize that animation is a
totally different art form than other art such as drawing, painting, and
others. Anime and American cartoon are the example of animation which
have their own style, but the American form of animation is not
as good as anime. Through time, both of these styles compete with each
other in producing better visual effects. For example, the
use of colors often quite more advanced in Japanese anime compared to
American cartoon. Besides, “Anime eyes generally have a lot of contrast.
Shadow and highlights are strong. Lines are well defined. The light source is
indicated by reflections.” (Wagner & Turlington, 2002, p.155). Anime
has wide variation in physical characteristics that make it closer to reality
compared to cartoons characters which usually have features that are not related to the rest of the body that make it further
from reality. This proved that visual motive of anime is much better
than American Cartoon as Figure 1 shows.
