Identifying Anime (& Things that might be Anime)

What is anime anyway? Are Cartoons Anime? How about stop motion? Puppets aren't anime right? In this video Kenny Lauderdale (me), covers 25 examples of animation from japan that are so bizarre in origin that they may not even count. From the American Series produced by Japan to shows made by so many countries you can't even tell if they're cartoons, this video covers things that even I can't identify. Honestly, I might have gone a bit overboard with this one, but Anime is so many different things it kinda boggles the mind. How much animation does something need to be "an anime"? 50%? 30% of it? If I shake a piece of artwork up & down while I'm in japan, does it become a Japanese animated series? Can anime be made in America? If not, how much of a show needs to be made in or by japan to count? These questions & more in this weird retrospective on anime oddities.
