This is an index for Animated Shows that are made in Asia.

The best-known and most familiar Asian animation in The West is Japan's Anime.

There may be some overlap between Asian animation and European animation due to certain countries (namely Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Russia, and Turkey) being part of both continents at once. Russian series are listed on the Eastern European Animation index.
