Wikipe-tan, an anime character.

Anime is a style of animation that started in Japan. Many anime shows have fantasy, action and superhero themes to them, and feature characters with strange hair and big eyes. Anime has been made in Japan since about the end of World War I, but many of these early films were lost due to earthquakes and World War II. After World War II, animated Disney movies from America, like Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and Bambi were very popular and many artists drew the same way that Disney artists did. Some artists from other countries have started to draw like these Japanese artists. Some anime was first made as comics called manga.

Pornographic anime is known as Hentai.
