@Poly,
Some people consider Avatar: The Last Airbender and Avatar: The Legend of Korra to be anime or anime-inspired.
Personally, I think both of them are in the grey area between western and anime but are anime-inspired. |

@jrad the Avatar series is a cartoon since it's made in the US anime is anime because it's made in Japan, though anime are still cartoons |

There's a big argument over it on tumblr, I think.
Is anime an art style or is it a word for Japanese cartoons? If it's art style, Avatar is definitely anime. |

anime is both which is why most anime looks the same
cartoons can be considered an art style, though really differing most cartoons look different from each other, which is why I prefer them over anime |

It really depends on the context
I'm not sure you could call ATLA and LoK anime as in the show genre itself but you could definitely say that the style of art is very anime-esque
it really just depends if you're talking about genre or style, honestly |
