Well, anime means "cartoon" in Japanese. It's like calling a JRPG an RPG, because they aren't. Western Cartoons tend to follow a more funnier, comical approach. They have different art styles and are pretty cheap and easy to make. Anime, or Japanese/Eastern Cartoons tend to follow their topic more straight on and use humor as a way to keep the audience entertained during otherwise boring parts of the story. (Typically during filler or after a big fight). They are also expensive and very time consuming. Studies have shown that artists have no problem drawing bodies and backgrounds, but eyes are what get them. Anime is very, very, very, very, very, VERY expensive and it's a tough risky buisiness unlike here in America and Europe where there are plenty of companies and channels ready to buy a product. If a manga doesn't look good, studio's won't waste their time. Aren't you glad you work with an Otaku.
