Reading through these posts really makes me want to try out some of these anime series. I admit I'm not well versed in Japanese animated TV at all.
If we're talking movies (a subject on which I can speak with much more confidence) the edge goes to United States, mostly for longevity. 75 years of animated feature films from Disney -- including masterworks like Pinocchio and Beauty and the Beast -- plus the golden years of Pixar (fading fast) and Warner Bros. and DreamWorks beat the combined output from Japan, even if individual movies -- Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke, Metropolis, Grave of the Fireflies, Paprika, etc. -- are outstanding.
However, no studio in the United States, or elsewhere in the world for that matter, has anyone close to the genius of Hayao Miyazaki.
