Ever wonder why Anime has this effect on people? It’s just cartoon, right? No! It’s so much more than that. While cartoon shows are mostly for kids, Anime has something or the other for everyone. So, what makes Anime different?
- The characters – Anime characters are more human than characters in TV shows. They are not simply good or bad. The depth given to each and every character is why people can relate to them. We can learn something or the other form these characters in every episode.
- The plot – Cartoon shows intentionally dumb down their content for the audience. Anime never underestimates the audience and offers amazing plots. Anime plots can leave one laughing and crying at the same time. The twists can leave your jaw hanging.
