Cartoon or Anime?

[Suzuru]

As for western cartoons and japanese Anime. I've watched plenty of both and there is big gap in style, technique, quality. Western made cartoon look as of they took a lot less effort to create, and in most cases it shows real well. Lately western cartoon took a plunge into the deeper hole and for the most part, I can't stand them now. Don't get me wrong, there is plenty of bad Anime but there is so much more of the good. In Japan, Animation is pretty lucrative industry, in part of that there is plenty of high paying voice actors and they are celebrities just because of being a seiyuu in Japan. Do you see same thing in U.S.? I don't, ever wonder why dubs are so horrible? ;p
