>>605I'm actually not very much into anime, the only Anime I watched are

Little Busters
Charlotte
Yu-Gi-Oh (everything except DM, watch for the cards, not the actual show)
then Rewrite and Planetarian is on schedule.
I'm more of a gamer, designer, composer, producer and programmer.
I could tell you about Chinese Anime though
Chinese Anime are polarized.
Nowadays, You either got super awesome ones, or super crap ones.
The super awesome ones are par Japanese Standard, and is in a good way. And has received praise even in Japan since most of those received Japanese Dub, for example, Spirit Blade Mountain(awesome Manga and Light Novel recently adapted into Anime) and The Legend of Qin (Hi-quality wuxia anime/TV series). However do note that most good Chinese Anime heavily leans towards wuxia genre for obvious reasons. There was a Sci-Fi one but I thought that flopped (Astro Plan, too similar to other robot shows).
The Super crap ones... are just super crap. Heh. For every 1 good one there ought to be 5 craps. Those ones can be easily spotted due to poor 3D Modeling and/or outright copy and paste frames from Japanese Anime.
If we turn back time some years, you got some moderate-to-good ones such like Music On(good for its time in 2000s, a video game adaptation was even planned but cancelled due to the show flopped heavily for various reasons, personally I think it's better and earlier than K-ON)
The reason why Chinese anime aren't big, is that most Chinese thought anime is for kids. If we're talking Chinese cartoon aimed for kids these days, they're decent but these won't qualify as Anime.
