Animu

A word jokingly used for the term 'Anime'.

It can be used by people who like and watch anime, but are kind of ashamed of it or at least want to distant themselves from the weeaboo culture.

It also can be used to offense weeaboos, when they are talking about anime.
I watched an animu yesterday, dude. Was pretty great.

Go watch your animu and read your mango or whatever, u weeb.

Animu

An Animu, a person that complains about anime drawings yet has either never watched one or refuses to consider it 'art'.

Animu's regularly band together and complain about 'front page' artwork's on DA(Deviant Art) or other popular art site’s about how ugly or silly an artwork is because it is in the style of Anime regardless of how well drawn and/or non anime style it actually is.

Animu's (the ones who have the balls at least) also comment on people's art and User pages complaining about how they never draw any 'REAL' art and rant about how 'popular' they are and that they don’t deserve it.

A majority of Animu's are unable to spell correctly and have poor artistic abilities.
1: UGH, srsly whts with all this anime cr*p! why the h3ll r u su populr? when r u gunna draw sum r3al ART?
2: Stop being such an Animu.. e.e

To see Animu's in their natural habitat browse the popular section on DeviantArt or search on encyclopediadramatica for 'Shit on the front page'.

animu

The word Animu is a joke used to describe both Anime and Japanophiles who attempt to give Japanese sounding pronunciations to words that were not Japanese to begin with. It is not meant to describe any specific form of Anime.

It is my belief that the word originated on the SA forums.
Stop watching all that animu crap.

animu

The word "animu" means "anime", but it is used in a disparaging or self-deprecating way. It's used as an in-joke, in reference to how anime otaku culture is not accepted by everyone, and how anime can consume so much time, energy, money.

The self-deprecating use of this word is similar to how "shit" and "crap" are used - for example, "I'll go back to watching my shit on YouTube", "I just bought a ton of crap for my computer", etc.
I'm gonna go watch some animu and read some mango.
