For those of you who don't know what Sailor Moon is, I'll explain to you. It is a japanese cartoon which are called anime. Anime is getting quite popular in the United States and one of the most common examples is POKEMON. Pokemon is best known for it's video games (Pokemon a type of RPG that deals with catching an d training POKEMON)and the animeted series. Anime hit mainstream culture sometime in 1998. Sailor Moon and other anime became more popular and less underground. It is said that anime has it's roots in Walt Disney's cartoons. They adopted the "huge eyes" and high quality animation. The two have moved quite apart from each other has time has passed. Anime is not nessasarily a cartoon for kids. There are different types of anime. Some anime is aimed at kids (Pokemon), adult action movie goers (Akira), and others are more of a piece of artist expression (Robot Carnival). Whatever your taste might be there is sure to be an anime that would be for you. I prefer anime over "american" cartoons because of the quality and the varity of the choices.
