Re: Anime is not for baby's -__-
Pretty sure anime comes from the word animate, or to bring to life. That's exactly what anime does: it brings a story to life.
Well an anime IS just a Japanese word for cartoons. So that's exactly what they are.
Japan just has different cultural attitudes to it and it's more acceptable to make more mature and adult cartoons. A shonen, fight anime about magic ninjas is pretty standard as it comes. Like, Teen Titans sort of credibility.
