I Am A Japanese School Teacher

Well, I'm relieved that you weren't ranking on me, but I'm not wrong... by standards of quality, your typical Speed Racers and Lupins and Little Nemos and My Neighbor Totoro's don't hold up to what Disney can produce. The animation is choppy, the dubbings aren't usually too great, and they appear all together thoroughly cartoon-like, whereas in some films like Aladdin or Beauty and the Beast, Disney managed to craft a marginally superior product via better animation and production.

I am by no means some anime phreak (in fact, you could even say I don't care for it much), but even I can see how wrong you are. Anime can be extremely beautiful and well drawn, animated, and colored. After all, it's just a style. Some studios do a better job than others. You can't compare one style to only the North American style as produced by Disney. There are plenty of shitty looking American cartoons as well (even Disney has their fair share, such as their straight-to-DVD craptoons). Turn on the TV on Saturday morning and you'll see half of the cartoons look like they were made with Macromedia Flash and the other half are the cheap imported animes.

So you favor one artistic style over the other. Good for you. That doesn't make one superior and the other trash, or your opinion fact. You should really have a more artistically open mind. Why? Because it won't make you look like a pompously ignorant Goron. Oh right, this is Darunia I'm talking to. :P
