i like to watch japanese cartoons anime in my spare time.
Thats cool, I don't know much about it other than it is a Japanese term for animation.
it is a style of hand-drawn and computer generated cartoons. a little different then what we call animation.
Yes, I think a lot of westerners strictly view anime as Japanese and that can be hard for some people to get behind. It does have a very different feel to it than our animation like Disney. 
Yes. So your telling me your not into any anime? Not even Dragon Ball Z? Alot of millennials are usually the target group for that show. sorry if im assuming. 
I grew up in the 90s when it was playing from Japan but my parents didn't think it was appropriate so I wasn't allowed to watch. It always looked very fascinating to me but never really got to watch it. 
oh i understand. i also grew up in the 90s. my older brother watched it alot. so it was kind of in my house already so my parents couldnt do much. Inuyasha was my go to anime show.
That show was about a jewel that was shattered right?
Yes ! i loved it. The sacred jewel i believe. its been so long since i watched it or any other anime show to be honest. i drifted away.
I knew that the series took place in a fiction version of Japan's Warring streets but didn't know about the different flash backs they would show.
