Is Avatar: The Last Airbender classed as an anime?

It looks rather anime-ish, but it's not from Japan.

Or is it?

Nope. It draws influence from anime, but it's something altogether different.

Anime is just Japanese animation, so Avatar would be classified as an American cartoon. But the creators love anime and based the character designs and overall style off of anime. That's why it resembles anime so much.

It's heavily anime-influenced but is technically American, and therefore not an anime.

It's American anime. Basically that just means a bunch of Americans got together and tried to recreate the anime art style.
