The definition of what is anime and what is not anime is incredibly blurry. The show is being produced by TMS Entertainment, a famous Japanese animation studio.
TMS is famous for such well-known works of anime as Sonic X, Hamtaro, Lupin the Third, or Detective Conan. TMS is also famous for such well-known works of not-anime as Inspector Gadget, The Real Ghostbusters, or the original 1987 DuckTales.
But director Eiichiro Hasumi and composer Yugo Kanno are strictly Japanese creators and the show is being published through Tokyopop, an American distributor for anime and manga. So this pretty clearly falls on the "Yes, anime" side of TMS's work.

My Tumblr. Currently side-by-side liveblogging Digimon Adventure, sub vs dub.Its blurry and up to personal definition, I think.
Japanese creators, company, franchise, and general trappings of what is perceived as the genre that wouldn't fit the mold of say, Steven Universe, or The Simpsons = anime.
Avatar the Last Airbender, Transformers, Castlevania, RWBY Dragon Prince with all of their anime-esque designs and themes typically not seen in Western cartoons = I mean it technically is anime by the truest sense of the term, but it's not quite Dragonball Z, My Hero Academia, or Assassination Classroom. It doesn't really feel like it belongs in the same Netflix group.
Honestly, Steven Universe is pretty anime-like itself. And RWBY is considered anime enough that it can be streamed on Chrunchyroll (probably helps that the Japanese like it). gen:Lock as well; that was even shown on Toonami.
But yeah, I can understand the confusion around this. It's actually sometimes easy to forget that Resi is a Japanese series, what with its tone, setting, and characters all being distinctly American. Hell, the games didn't even get official Japanese dubs until I think Biohazard (outside of the individual characters in MVC3).

Disney100 Marathon | DreamWorks MarathonJust finished it.
As horrible as it is to say, those torches would have prevented a zombie outbreak if those dudes had been a few seconds faster.
Also, I'm not clear as to why Leon chose not to give Claire the chip if he plans to expose them anyway.
One Strip! One Strip!The idea is likely he doesn't want to create mass panic and let Jason win. He's kinda like the idealist version of Simmons in the form of These Are Things Man Was Not Meant to Know.

It may also be that he wanted them to come forward willingly as well.
I'm a little confused about the timeline. Does Degeneration happen before or after Terra Griga? And when does this take place relative to both of those incidents?
One Strip! One Strip!The anime (at least the four episodes) take place in 2006. So after RE 4 and Degeneration.
For the Terragrigia Panic incident, it was in Summer 2004.

An interview with Director Eiichiro Hasumi on working with ID and his vision of a potential Season 2.

Trailer.
From io9
:
It’s been quite a while since rookie cop Leon S. Kennedy and young motorcycle enthusiast Claire Redfield first met in the zombie-filled Raccoon City during 1998's Resident Evil 2. Now the dynamic duo is getting back together in Netflix’s upcoming Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness CG series to deal with a new outbreak of monsters...at the White House?
Yes, the White House, because now-Special-Agent Leon is hilariously investigating a hacking incident for some reason, and Claire is petitioning for an unspecified “welfare facility.” Also, somehow a child’s drawing of monsters is extremely important for some reason. Oh, and it’s 2006, making it two years after the events of Resident Evil 4.
