For example, the film "Windmill" (2013) contained more than 144,000 frames, of which 80% were drawn by hand.
- Not only for children: In Japan, anime is not seen as something just for children. There are anime genres specifically for adults, such as "seinen" for men or "josei" for women.
- The origin of big eyes: The style of big eyes in the anime was inspired by Osamu Tezuka, the creator of "Astro Boy," who was inspired by American cartoons like "Bambi."
