Where do you draw the line in what counts as an anime character?

[Star_Of_Hope]

Do you consider any living being in anime as a character?
There are cars who can talk and there are other living beings as well. Do you consider then as significant anime characters?

 

[Blackangel]

i think so
anime can be very weird like that and it's not easy at all to understand it when it comes to fantasy

If it’s a character in an anime, it’s an anime character, I don’t see why there needs to be a discussion.

yoma from claymore and some other living beings. they are not human or animals
and they are like aliens to us and some are even celestial beings

 

[Rinko]

I don't know
If it's a human then it's a good anime character otherwise it's just to fill in the gaps

 

[Kaname]

Not sure what to say man.
I can't think of any characters who are very weird and in fantasy anime you see a lot of deviations.

 

[Blackangel]

i agree with that too.
but it all depends on how we feel. if we think an anime character is just any character, then that's all it is

Well.. i never thought about this before lol

The world of television and shows in itself makes any and everything possible so I won't draw any lines. Be it a movie or otherwise..once art is involved anything is possible be it a talking car or a walking and talking tree. Characters are characters no matter how you perceive them

lol and i think there are many more things too.
possession of cars lol.
