Which do you prefer,anime or cartoon?

Anime, by far. While I do enjoy the silly and mock antics of cartoons, I still appreciate how anime series have more complex plots, more well-written characters, and the fact that most anime series are aimed at teenage to adult crowd, in general.

Still, technically, anime ARE cartoons. The only difference is that they are Japanese-produced, and, as I said, before, more complex and aimed for those who are a bit older.

Cartoon. That's because I only like 2 animes!

....Anime is cartoon...
So I go with cartoon because it adds more than Anime. Besides, I don't really watch anime.

Anime, duh haha lol. I feel like anime shows reach deeper than the cartoons I've seen. I've cried because of anime, and I barely cry man wtf. And with anime, something about it just feels like you're in an entire other universe. There are some really creative cartoons but I don't know, I like anime a bit more (because I've actually watched it...)

Sorry for kinda rambling lmao

Both and there aren't too many differences...just one style is better than the other. Also animes are Japanese cartoons and regular cartoons are usually American ones

anime and cartoons are p much the same thing anime is just generally more mature than cartoons??? but then you have anime like squid girl thats for kids and cartoons for adults?? its just that one is eastern and one is western theres no difference tho

I like more cartoon than anime.
The only anime i love is oban star racers and the cartoons i like is spongebob squarepants, code lyoko, american dragon, simpsons
and teen titans ,

Oh anime, totally. I like cartoons, but I think anime has more meaning to it and awesome plots. (I'm looking at you, Black Butler, 8D) There always seems to be those times in anime where they say something really deep, pretty much touches you in the heart. Plus, the guys in anime are way hotter. xD I especially like the guys in beanies, or has a dark personality.

well anime is a type of cartoon so that doesnt really make any sense .

its just that most anime is from japan so we dont think of it the same as other cartoons .

Anime

Cartoon by far!!!!!! I hate anime (with a few exceptions)

I'd have to go with cartoons as there are very little animes I can get into as all the female characters have giant melons

I like both but I like anime more.

anime for sure x3

Anime.

Anime.
Whilst most cartoons are aimed for a younger audience (with the exception of things like South Park, Futurama, and Family Guy), anime can generally be for almost any age group.
And animated shows are more popular in Japan, so you'll probably find more unique anime with interesting story lines and characters, whereas western cartoons tend to end up copying each other and re-using the same jokes and themes or whatever.
But there's still lots of anime that can be horribly cliched...
But yeah, anime. I love anime art style, too. It's so beautiful and interesting. c:
(Also, I prefer manga over Western comics any day, as well)

Anime
(I do like cartoons though)

I prefer anime~ I love how it can be for all ages from child to adult.

Both. My favorite anime shows are Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh, Blue Dragon...

My favourite cartoons are Regular Show, Ed Edd n Eddy, Xiaolin Showdown, etc.

I like both but anime is a cartoon. It's just a Japanese one. IN fact the Japanese call every cartoon "anime" regardless.
