I can't believe that no one has said Thundercats, tut tut. Anyway I am such a conniseure of cartoons,

Captain Planet
Buckey O'Hare
Bravestar
the Smoggies
Count Duckula
He-Man
X-Men(not evolution, that sucks)
Dr. Snuggles
Mysterious Cities of Gold
Ulysses 31
Dungeons and Dragons
Prince Valiant
Piarates of Dark Water
Botsmaster
Jayce and the Wheel Warriors
Defenders of the Earth
Where is Carmen Sandeago
Racoons
Superted

there are more but I can't remember them all off hand. Maybe you didn't get some of them cuz they are british.

I bet that nobody has heard of Dr. Snuggles, there was only ever 12 episodes.

I would've mentioned Thundercats and Gargoyles and the like, they ARE favorites. But I was trying to think of cartoons that weren't Japanese animated. Thundercats was done by Rankin-Bass, whose credits include the animated versions of The Hobbit, Return of the King, The Last Unicorn (which is now being remade as a live-action feature), Silverhawks, and Flight of Dragons, to name a few. These were made in English, but if you look at the credits, they were all animated in Japan and therefore count as anime (as if the style of R-B's animation isn't a dead giveaway).

The same goes with Gargoyles. The story and sound was done over here, but the animation was all done in Disney's Tokyo-based studio. Hence, it can be considered anime as well.

That doesn't make these two any less great shows. It's just that the thread specifically asked for non-anime.

Yes but since Anime is the french word for animation we must remember that the smurfs are anime!

YOU BULLSHIT ME! Are you serious? Does this mean a new mix of that song that was used for an Evangelion music video?

I bullshit you not. Have a look: http://us.imdb.com/Title?0314301

I have no clue about music or anything, as not even half the cast has been picked yet, but there's the latest info I've found on the project. Looks good so far, I think.

I love that film and Flight of Dragons, they are still great. I didn't know that they were anime, in that case I probably shouldn't have included Ulysses 31 as that was a japanese-french thing and it is still the scaries kids cartoon ever even the music sends shivers up my spine.
