And I'm telling you that just isn't the case. There are some anime shows
that are all sex and violence (i.e. hentai), an there are some shows
that have zero sex and violence (i.e. Card Captor Sakura), just like
American shows/movies. The only thing that differentiates anime from
American cinema is the drawing/animation style (i.e. big eyes, small
mouth, weird hair, etc.) and Japanese cultural references. Those are the
ONLY components that make anime anime. Any other components can be
readily found in all forms of entertainment in varying degrees. You
can't say sex and violence are the biggest components of *any* medium,
much less anime, because those things merely define a sub-section of the
medium, not the entire medium.
