Myth

　 In conclusion0 Japanese’s anime is popular among foreigners because

of its unique characters drawing which is different from those of cartoons, some complicated stories which people can enjoy think about what will happen next, and because of Anime is not always a happy ending therefore the audience cannot predict the end easily and this can make them excited.

0 It is more popular among foreigners than Japanese because many Japanese people still have a bad image towards people who like Anime, but foreigners tend to be more freely to say “I love Anime.”
