Animator

An umbrella term used by self-proclaimed animation critics on YouTube to describe a person who's responsible for every visual aspect on a piece of animated media. Examples of this include character design, environment art, pre-visulization, actual character animation, lighting, etc. Often seen as lazy depending on the critic's opinion of the piece under scrutiny.

Why hell did they use the same Glorbo design in Glorbo's Big Adventure 2? The lazy animators didn't even bother to change a thing about him!

Animecel

A person who compulsively feels the need to assert that anime is superior to all other forms of media. This type of person feels an uncontrollable urge to compare any topic, story, or artistic work to anime regardless of relevance. Animecels believe it is their duty to educate others on why anime surpasses Western media, literature, and cinema, consistently derailing discussions to make their point.

Dude, every time I mention anything about a movie or a comic, this animecel has to chime in with 'well Attack on Titan and Berserk did it better' its so annoying
