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.
