That's literally the original way to differentiate it. Outsourced animation was animated and directed by the japanese and written by the western stuff. The 1 in 1000000 co productions that have both a japanese writer and a western writer like bakugan can be discussed on both of the boards. These rules are pretty consistent.
>I’m fairly certain the animation studio is in the Americas so it’s Cinemaphile
So Batman TAS and Superman TAS are Cinemaphile? I can’t watch the two face two parter without seeing the suits and thinking anime yakuza bosses (usually named Tanaka) or like yuyu hakusho pants.
It’s Cinemaphile. It’s not written or directed by Japanese, not to mention it’s originally a westshit. Nobody in Japan would claim it’s Japanese. I’m not sure why it’s even a debate.
The director might not be ethnically Japanese, but he's been a Science Saru employee since its founding and worked on most of their anime. It's not a case like Yasuke where it's outright directed by a random American with no connections to the studio.
The comics being western also isn't nothing new, the Japanese have been adapting western source material for decades.
Really if you want to make a case for it not being anime you should look at the production companies... and yet Cyberpunk Edgerunners is still allowed on Cinemaphile despite being produced by CDPR and Netflix. It's more complicated than it looks.

The writer, not the comic one, is Cinemaphile so it's Cinemaphile.
It's an adaptation of a comic, so Cinemaphile will never talk about it and if you try to make a thread about it on Cinemaphile it will be deleted on sight.

The best episodes of each were done in Japan and Korea.
Western IP written by westerners but adapted by an anime studio.
But it's worth mentioning that they still have the 2-frame lip flaps and the JP dub was clearly recorded first. People are already bothered by the preview that was shown off because the pacing is too "Japanese." So it's more adapted to JP sensibilities which you can't say for something like Batman TAS.
sure
Yes
The writer, not the comic one, is Cinemaphile so it's Cinemaphile.
It’s Cinemaphile since the comic was Cinemaphile, also I’m fairly certain the animation studio is in the Americas so it’s Cinemaphile
This, as we all know howls moving castle can only be posted on Cinemaphile

The writers, of the show, are Cinemaphile so it's Cinemaphile.
You making up definitions in your schizophrenic head doesn't alter reality.

Read the board rules, newbie
It's animated by Science Saru which is a Japanese studio.

You answered yourself. What it is, is shit.

>Scott Pilgrim vs the Roast
It's an adaptation of a comic, so Cinemaphile will never talk about it and if you try to make a thread about it on Cinemaphile it will be deleted on sight.
Is it bad that I have zero interest in Scott Pilgrim now that I know how the ending recontextualizes him as a selfish butthole?
It's still a funny series with a lot of likable characters, so it's worth the investment.
You're missing out on our fricking guy Wallace
I like it more because it doesn't make it a generic ass "le gary stu" protagonist, it has depth then just being a power fantasy
No, it’s to be expected. The ending, like what they did to ari in entourage, was an apology to their critics in an attempt to save face.
Netflix are calling it an anime but it's still a western comic adaption. It's like how they call the Castlevania cartoon an "anime."
If it's made by a Japanese studio it's anime.
Wrong.

I guess Tiny Toons is an anime then
None of those 90s shows could afford TMS for every episode, they reserved them for things seamonkeys couldn’t handle like the Clayface episodes
Post this thread on both Cinemaphile and Cinemaphile
Whichever thread is deleted first is the board it belongs on
Rigged, Cinemaphile is more moderated.
this scott pilgrim anime is as much of an anime as
this
or even better, this.
has the witch blade anime been discussed on Cinemaphile before? and reached bump limit?
It's trash
If the original work is western, then it's Cinemaphile even if it's animated in Japan
