i guess that depends on how pedantic we want to be.

the last unicorn was animated by a japanese company, but written and directed by us americans. original voice performance was also done by non japanese people.

so if we say that a anime has to be a animated movie made by japanese people, then no, the last unicorn is not a anime.

if we say a anime is a animated movie where japanese people were responsible for the animation then yes, the last unicorn is a anime.

if we say anime is a genre descriptor and not a geographical label i wonder if avatar the last airbender or the castlevania animated series are anime and how ghost in the shell and my neighbor totoro both fit in their.

It's just a sparkling animation movie unless it's made in Japan by Japanese.

not a native speaker, so what does "sparkling" entail here?

i only know the word when talking about fizzy water, jewelery or twillight vampires :D

and would you say tlu is anime?

it was animated by japanese people in japan after all.

Haha it's just a meme. They say champagne is only from the French region of champagne, otherwise it's called sparkling wine.
