Anime University

Frank AvatarPart of being a fan of anime is learning about the different aspects of it. While anime is in and of itself a unique medium, there's a lot more to it than just it being an alternative to "cartoon" animation. Attached to anime are cultural, historical, and technical facts which are all a contributing factor in making anime what it is. Here at AnimeInfo.org we're dedicated to bringing you closer to a greater understanding of anime, whether you're just a beginner starting out or an expert. This section consists of research and educational "classes" and academic papers that you can read up on in order to become better acquainted with anime and what makes it what it is! You can even mail class writers about anime and manga research topics to get assistance! We've picked up on Internet tutorial site Webmonkey's excellent design style for presenting lessons and have used it as the basis for our own classes. Don't worry - you'll be an anime graduate in no time! If you need to print classes or check out a listing of works cited and sites where pictures were acquired, be sure to check out the "EZ Printable Format" and "Bibliography" links at the top of every lesson page!
