Whether its purpose is social change or simply comic relief, today's topic seldom fails to “make them laugh”!
CARTOON 連載漫画、風刺画、アニメ(映画、番組)
- A cartoon is a comic strip or a humorous (= funny) drawing, especially in a newspaper or magazine.
A cartoon is also a movie or - especially in the United States - a television program for children, made by filming a series of drawings, computer images, etc. instead of live actors. - cartoon とは、新聞や雑誌に載っているコマ割りの漫画や滑稽な絵のことです。
cartoon は、実際の役者ではなく、絵やコンピュータ・グラフィックスなどを使って作成した映画や、(特にアメリカでは)子供向けのテレビ番組をさすこともあります。
