The most striking of these was Neon Genesis Evangelion which shattered Western expectations for the mecha genre. And when the s rolled around, it was clear that anime was going to be everything for everybody. By the early and mids, anime had broken into American homes and was here to stay. Cartoon Network introduced their Adult Swim block and programmed a lot of anime series that American audiences had not been introduced to.
A standout from this era was Cowboy Bebop , a short anime series that is often cited as one of the best anime shows of all time. As the internet and digital distribution began to explode, fans found it even easier to get a hold of original Japanese versions of their favorite anime shows and films.
The influx was incalculable as distributors were being held to task for providing accurate adaptations of these shows. And by today, anime is a multi-million dollar industry that shows no sign of stopping.
There are streaming services that cater specifically to anime shows and releases from Japan. Fan conventions are full of cosplayers dressing up as their favorite anime characters.
And the mainstream acceptance of the medium is at an all-time high. Anime is here to stay. Its journey from Japan to America is a long and storied one, and it will continue to affect American culture in immeasurable ways.

Though Disneyland kept Disney rather busy, he, along with his studio and team, continued releasing quality entertainment. Unfortunately, the s brought the end of an era: in December 15, Walt Disney died.
However, the Walt Disney Studios managed to survive under the plans that Walt left behind and under the guidance of his brother Roy Disney. By Roy Disney died and for the next decade, the company was led by a team who was originally trained by the Disney brothers.
The Master Brings Life to Animation:. As a child, Tezuka was a fanatical fan of Walt Disney's early animations. Many were impressed by Tezuka's original style. However, it was not until Tezuka released his ultimate work Tetsuwan Atomu Astro Boy that he achieved success; he was pronounced "the Father of Manga and Anime".
When Tezuka made a name for himself in the industry, he managed to establish his own production company in He formed Mushi Productions, where he released his best work, Astro Boy. With Astro Boy, Many recognized Tezuka's original style and approach that was new to the entire industry.
The style of his illustrations and characters came from French and German cinema. His characters exploded with life and emotion, and his stories would unfold themselves on hundreds of pages. There was much controversy in the past about this anime after Disney released a similar version with the movie The Lion King with Simba as the main character.
Although Disney denies this, many believe that Disney stole the anime and recreated it with their own version. Yet with all the success Tezuka receives, he often confesses that comics are his "wife" and animation is his "mistress. In , two years after Roy Disney died, Mushi Productions went bankrupt.

Some of his works include Buddha , Hi no Tori Phoenix , and one of his more recent works, Black Jack , which is about an outlaw doctor.

Hayao Miyazaki Courtesy of Nausicaa. My Background on Anime and Manga:. As for me, I have been an avid otaku fan of anime for a very long time. I am more of an anime fan than a manga fan since I own and view more anime. I started out with anime ever since I started watching cartoons when I was little. I was exposed to anime back in Saudi Arabia because till this day, mostly all of the cartoons they show for children are originally anime except they are translated in Arabic.
I moved here in the U. I always thought to myself that the cartoons here were very different from the cartoons back in Saudi Arabia I never really knew it was anime at the time.
On occasion when my father would travel, I would give him a list of anime that I wanted and he would get it for me. Of course, many of these tapes were under different titles than the original anime from Japan.
