Exotic food, magnificent temples, orthodox religions and
diverse cultures are some of the things that define Asia. But those are mostly
textbook descriptions, for in this present time, Asia is gaining more
prominence with pop music, fashion trends, television dramas, and of course,
Anime! What is Asia without these greater-than-life animated series?
Animes originated from Japan. They are animated productions
featuring computer or hand-drawn animation. Many of which are based on Japanese
manga or serialized comic books and graphic novels. Tons of animes had already
been produced and distributed not only in Asian countries but all over the
world. Some only last for a couple of
seasons while others span years of viewership. Some are pseudo-realist while
others are purely based on the out-of-this-world imagination of the creators.
As for me, I have several favorite, but among these peeves, one that I got so
addicted with is ONE PIECE.
