The First Anime

[Dwight]

To all anime lovers out there, here is an interesting fact. Did you know that the oldest surviving anime was released in 1917? Namakura Gatana was a 2 minute clip of a samurai testing his sword.

Wow, that's so cool! I had no idea anime went back that far. It’s amazing to see how much it’s evolved since then. Thanks for sharing this fun fact!
