Joy, the protagonist of Inside Out, is designed to look like characters from Japanese cartoons or anime. This is due to the size of her big eyes, hair color and cut, nose style, tall and thin figure, and mainly her face seen in profile, something common in female anime characters. The character Peni Parker a Japanese/American Spidergirl from Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is designed and animated this way, the creators citing Sailor Moon as an inspiration for her. The Scooby-Doo films Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island, Scooby-Doo! and the Witch's Ghost, Scooby-Doo and the Alien Invaders, and Scooby-Doo and the Cyber Chase have an animesque look to them, as they were co-produced by Mook DLE. Turning Red
pays a lot of homage to anime, as the director is an anime fan. There are a good amount of cartoony and exaggerated anime expressions on the characters' faces, like sweat drops, sparkly eyes, Playful Cat Smiles and rivers of tears. Also, Mei draws a boy she is crushing on in an anime style in her sketchbook. Fittingly, the movie takes place in the
early 2000s, when anime was enjoying a surge of popularity in North America. Films — Live-Action Speed Racer was described as "the first live-action anime", and it certainly fits, with Speed Lines, the mecha-like Car Fu, and Speed clearly being a Hot-Blooded hero. A parody of Fist of the North Star also appears in the show. The story of O-Ren Ishii from Kill Bill Volume One had a portion which was an anime-style cartoon paying homage to — of course — anime.
