Would you say Spongebob is Anime? Unless you're japanese or a weeaboo, no. There's no reason to call it "Anime" just because Japan does so. We're not Japanese, we use the world-wide definition of Anime.

Marth is in the right in this topic. RWBY is not Anime, it's Anime-influenced western animation, or Animesque Animation.

Of course, I'm pretty sure this topic is irrelevant to most, if not all articles in this wiki. Including the Manga.
