Anime owes its style to Disney.
Anime as we know it today is varied in style and content, but it can all be traced back to one man: Osamu Tezuka. The well-known creator of the anime style influenced generations following him, but he was not without influences of his own. Tezuka was heavily influenced by Disney films of his time, including Bambi and Mickey Mouse cartoons. He styled his own creation, Astro Boy, to look like Disney cartoons. As his creations evolved, they took on a "cuter" style, later morphing into anime as we know it today. Thanks, Disney!
