Line 1:
Anime is a movie-animation style that originated in Japan in the 1960s, largely through the work of artist, animator, and producer Osamu Tezuka. It was greatly influenced by Japanese printed comics, which are collectively called manga. In general, anime (the word comes from the English word "animation") has a distinct look. Characters have exaggerated features: big eyes, little mouth, long thin limbs, and a tendency to over-emote, reacting in an overblown manner with exclamation marks (in manga) and enormous mouths when shouting. The full range of elements common to most anime is beyond the scope of this article, but a basic overview of the style can be gleaned from this online article about manga, from the Japan Times website.

Line 22:
Nonetheless, as it's not surprising to have fans of anime be fans of Daria, Anime has spilled over into the Daria fandom and influenced it in numerous ways since before the demise of the Daria TV series. The most important effects that it has had include:
 
* [[Crossover]] fanfiction mixing Daria characters with the characters and settings of Japanese movies (e.g., "The Misery Senshi Neo-Zero Double Blitzkrieg Debacle," "Dariatation," "FBCB," "Stacy Rowe, Evangelion Pilot", ). Crossovers have been attempted for everything from Sailor Moon to Read or Die (the latter being especially well liked as the heroine, Yomiko Readman, has a passing resemblance to Daria Morgendorffer).
* Artwork of Daria characters with recognizable anime-derived features (e.g., the works of Wouter).
* Use of anime as a (fanon-added) hobby or special interest of certain canon Daria characters. The earliest known example of this is Austin Covello's "The Death of Stacy."
* Anime influences that are directly referenced or alluded to in Daria fanfiction. (e.g., the Veritech Alpha Fighter into which Upchuck transforms himself in the Legion of Lawndale Heroes series, or the [[Mecha Ensign Daria]] IC Round Robin).
* Anime-derived terminology, though in Daria fandom this shared lexicon is very limited (e.g., cosplay, lemon and lime, mecha, yuri and yaoi).
