Anime in India

The Issue

         The word anime when used in Japan refers to the animation of any sort, including their animation and western cartoons. When it is used outside of Japan, it refers exclusively to animation made in Japan.”Anime is not a genre within the wider framework of animation, but a medium in itself.    

        Indian animations like Chota Bheem, Mighty Raju are all garbage. They are more unrealistic than anime that one person is getting stronger by eating Ladoo or Samosa. No disrespect to any Indian created or Animator but these types of storytelling are making children more passive. They should animate educational stories from Maharashtra and Ramayana as well as Indian history, but with the right storytelling without any Mirch Masala to change the story. These will be more impact-full for the younger audience rather than adult anime or wrong impractical Indian cartoons.         

      After the easy approach of the internet to a large number of people, the masses are coming to know about anime, manga, and good Indian as well as foreign content. With the help of platforms anime and manga, fans are engaging and talking about their favorite anime, manga, and movies. Companies like Shonen Jump has been reacting in a good way as they have introduced changes in their platform so that Indian can read manga freely and easily. These are good signs for a healthy audience who is getting to know about great content and animations in the world of Anime in India.

      In India, the availability of anime series is a problem because anime is not aired on TV. But we can watch them on streaming platforms like Netflix and Amazon Prime Video but these are paid. Even some are also available on YouTube.Some people are watching pirated series I am totally against it, but in the long run, this created more popularity of Anime. 

        Thus, there should be a Anime streaming service in India on Television.
