I'd still call them both anime since anime is short for animation, I'd maybe choose to call it American anime VS Japanese anime
And I say Japanese anime since American anime is too centered around American ideas in a bad way (of course some are good like spongebob and adventure time) I just don't like the ones that make fun of any country that isn't America, and to people who say Japanese anime is too japanesey... Honestly I've yet to find an anime that's too japanesey (BTW flashy lights and super powers don't make it japanesey, since comics like marvel have that as well)

Aren't anime a form of cartoons? They're a Japanese style, at least I think so. Or could be the other way like HarmoKnight said.
They've both got they're pros and cons, but I tend to like Anime more. It just seems to have more care put into it, with the exception of Adventure Time. Seriously, you could look at any frame of that show and you would find something awesome. Try to prove me wrong.

Good points! Anime is composed of anything animated thus cartoons are anime.

Yeah I remember typing in "popular animes in Japan" and spongebob came up so anime is just short for animation, which is also why I think most video games are a form of anime, just you can't watch (besides cut scenes)

Now that I think about it, they're both interchangeable. Cartoons are anime and anime are cartoons. It's just that anime, at least in the west, is usually referred to as stuff made in Japan with that style we all know.

Anime, most western styles looks stupid and don't flow well, I also have a great love for angles and symmetry.

It depends on the cartoon itself. I enjoy comedy, and there's some pretty great ones like Futurama. Course, I like Family Guy too, but mainly because of the stupid humor and randomness and all that. Then there's the comedy in anime...actually I haven't watched much comedy anime other than School Rumble, so, I dunno. Anime is awesome though.
EDIT: I take that back, forgot about Excel Saga and Shin-Chan.

Well isn't legend of Korra still western? I mean it has more Japan's style but it's still western, after all they did have that episode of futurama where they has the 3 stories (black and white, 8-bit, and J anime)

I was just about to say. Then again, I don't really know where to classify Legend of Korra, but it didn't feel like an anime. I don't know how else to say it. Anyone else know what I mean?

I think western cartoons are better because most animes just go around fantasy and sci-fi,while we have more of a mix of stuff like Futurama and Regular Show.Big eyes and giant robots and alien frogs can get kind of old after a while.
