Anime is an abbreviation of the word “animation.” It's a style of cartoon animation originating in Japan, with character and background styles that may be created by hand or assisted by computers. The storylines feature a variety of characters and are set in different locations and eras. Anime is aimed at a broad range of audiences and may be characterized under several different genres. It may be broadcast on television, distributed on media such as DVDs, or published as console and computer games. Japanese comics known as “manga” often influence Anime.

Please note that some anime and manga items have features and themes that are for adults only, ages 18 and up. These items are recommended for mature collectors as they may contain extreme violence, nudity, naughty bits, and other fun things meant for adults and not appropriate for minors.
