If you wonder what the big deal is about anime, then I would suggest you read the following short article.

So, what is Anime?

Animated entertainment from Japan that is characterized by vibrant characters, imaginative storylines, and fantastic themes is referred to as anime. The term "anime" is a shortened version of the word "animation" in Japanese, but in English, it has come to refer specifically to Japanese animation. Japan has one of the largest and most productive anime industries globally, producing thousands of original anime series and movies annually. Some of the widely accepted anime genres include action, science fiction, romance, comedy, and fantasy, and many anime tales are adapted from manga (Japanese comic/animation books) or light novels. Anime has a large and enthusiastic following all-over the world and is enjoyed by people of all ages.

For some fans, anime is not just a form of media, it is considered an art form.

The future of Anime

The future of artificial intelligence Anime is an exciting and rapidly evolving field, and AI technology has the potential to greatly affect anime production and distribution in many ways.
For example, AI can be used to automate parts of the animation process. B. Generate background graphics or animate character movement. This saves production time, cuts costs, and allows you to create more content.


AI can also play a role in anime distribution and promotion. For example, AI algorithms can analyse viewer data to recommend anime to viewers or suggest new shows that are similar to ones they already like. Additionally, AI can be used to translate anime into multiple languages, making it more accessible to audiences around the world.


Another potential application of AI in anime is the creation of a virtual girlfriend idol that resembles popular Japanese virtual girlfriend singer Hatsune Miku. These virtual characters, which may be animated and controlled by AI algorithms, can perform on stage, interact with fans, and even participate in shows and movies.


But the use of AI in anime also raises questions about the future of human creativity and the role of technology in the industry. Some worry that the increased use of AI will cause anime to lose its artistry and individuality, while others see AI as a tool to enhance and extend human creativity.


In summary, the future of anime powered by AI technology is bright and has great potential to revolutionise the industry, but it is important to use anime responsibly and in a way that complements and enhances human creativity.
It's true that with the help of modern technology, later generations of fans have grown accustomed to hand-drawn anime—classic "single-dimensional" anime that lacks depth.

It is true that later generations of fans became accustomed to hand-drawn anime—the classic "single-dimension" anime with no depth—aided by modern technology.
Some of the best anime films were hand-drawn with little technical assistance and produced stunning results. Anime is now following modern technology trends and adapting to new digital technologies. The use of 2D and 3D techniques is replacing traditional anime, with amazing results. The aesthetics as well as the illusion of depth are aimed at taking you to a completely different reality.

A classic example of 2D and 3D anime is Appleseed (2004), while an anime movie of similar theme but older design and tech is Armitage III (1995):
