    Because I know almost nothing about anime. If you want me to lecture about early 20th century American animation though, I can tell you all about Ub Iwerks and the Fleischers.

        I was really not a fan of what they did at Famous Studios, probably because of Paramount forcing limitations and other stuff on them. Honestly though, I think once they decided to really focus on Popeye over everything else, I lost a lot of interest in them. I loved when they had their own studio and could do all kinds of experiments, like using live action backgrounds with animated characters.

        I’ll ask my daughter when she wakes up, but she’ll tell the Japanese name to me quickly and I won’t understand it and then she’ll probably do the teenage thing of getting frustrated before I can get her to spell it. So you may be out of luck.
