Well, I think they are both just as good. I always thought that anime was much better than Western Shows because Cartoon Network, Disney and, nick have awful Japanese Dubs. That changed when I stayed in America for a year. I got to experience it in English and with better voice actors. I was really into shows like Adventure Time but hated show like Regular Show. I was surprised because there wasn't much of a variety of shows on the channels. Especially on Nick. They were mostly focused on Comedy Shows. I think comedy plays a part. I noticed that Japanese and American comedy are completely different. Story wise they also have different tastes. I think that it all depends on your liking, what you're used to, and voice actors. Most people I met in America said they hated anime because it was in Japanese and when they tried to watch the English Dub it was terrible to the point they'd cringe. I think people in the west would move more towards shows in English and made in their country. but then again there are people in the west who have bigger Animelists than I.
