I already explained the reason why I prefer, most of time, the Japanese animated films over the American ones. And I don't think this reason of yours is enough to change that...
Oh, I'm not trying to change your opinion. I'm just stating that the reason why animation is more welcome to any age over there than over here is it's apart of their culture. Animation isn't really apart of American culture (then again, do we have culture?)

Ironically, I agree that Japanese movie quality is usually more thought out, though Lion King will still be my favorite.
