If the U.S were to buy up all the major anime and manga production companies, lets just say hypothetically, would it then still be anime if it is american owned. Or if they moved the whole operation but still the same design, editors etc, still anime. Made in Japan doesn't seem to quite be the answer.
It's the answer as far as this site's concerned.

When's the last time you saw a 3d cartoon? If it's on a screen, it's 2 dimensional. O:

I don't wanna get into a big argument, but i'll just leave it at this: When I think Advent Children, I don't think "Anime", I think "CGI movie"
