When asked I thought that american/western scores for animes (like DBZ) are the topic of discussion, not western animation. I don't like the idea of having all those western scores in the database, I'd rather have it limited to japanese animation only. Although, people sure might argue "if animation, then all animation" since vgmdb is not only restricted to japanese video game music but also includes western scores.

No question about these since they're original all-japanese productions.

"The Littles"
"Thundercats"
Unlike those three candidates. Some were produced in Japan, some co-produced, some only directed by japanese ppl but wholly produced in e.g. the USA. So, what makes anime anime? The production cast, the drawing style etc. etc.? We're really in need for a watertight definition.

By the way, we already have such a moot case in our database: Alfred J. Kwak
