DOTA's plot is kinda over the top, but somehow I feel the writing and general feel is more "western," though looking like LoK may have biased me some. Actually this is probably a bad example.
Castlevania, the way characters move, its drawn, just the general feel of the drama feels more "anime" to me.
In terms of my opinion, maybe its more accurate to state they both straddle the line.
You know what, when you mention the movement of the characters, I see what you mean. Castlevania characters move more realistically, but it's still pretty stylized, thus the "almost anime" feeling.
Yeah.
Avatar's obsession with realistic body movement is an exception, but even if you look at stuff with heavy fighting like DCAU, it feels more "grounded" while anime feels more "dramatic." These aren't the exact adjectives I'm looking for, but maybe you get what I mean, and Castlevania and DOTA both veer towards the middle.
