You are talking about animation. Yes, you are correct about animation being shorten to anime , but when somebody is talking about "Anime" they are talking about Japanese anime.

Yes, both the terms "anime" &  "animation" Is what I'm referring to.

As stated In Wikipedia.

In Japanese, the term anime refers to all forms of animation from around the world.

I understand and agree with your point pertaining to Japanese anime.

Wikipedia is not a reliable source for academic writing or research. Wikipedia is increasingly used by people in the academic community, from freshman students to professors, as an easily accessible tertiary source for information about anything and everything, and as a quick "ready reference", to get a sense of a concept or idea.

However, citation of Wikipedia in research papers may be considered unacceptable, because Wikipedia is not a reliable source.

"a Japanese style of motion-picture animation, characterized by highly stylized, colorful art, futuristic settings, violence, and sexuality." is only anime and nothing else. "Japanese anime" is simply incorrect to say. Other cartoons aren't anime unless they are what I just quoted from Dictionary,com - also, anime and animation aren't the same.
