The reason why I want to talk about Anime is because it takes part in the Japanese Otaku Culture.
As I said before, character design is very similar to Manga:
- Body proportion: Normally, the human figure emulated is proportional and similar to the real human body. For exaggeration, certain body features are increased in proportion.
- Eye Styles: Just as manga, anime character's eyes are distinguished by they enlargement, so they express more emotions.
The types of Anime are same as Manga; they are demographically separated.
I'm not personally really keen of Anime, especially shojo. Normally the shojo animes are too childish for teenagers, and sometimes they can totally destroy the manga which they are based in, with bad drawings and changes in the plot. But I have to say there are some ones in which the drawing is that not bad at all:
