In honor of the first animated projected screening, the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.asifa.net\/what-we-do\/iad\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">International Animated Film Association (ASIFA)<\/a> declared the holiday on October 28, 2002, as the main global event to celebrate the art of animation. The holiday is celebrated on every continent with more than 50 observing countries and 1000 events every year! At Kdan Mobile, we decided to celebrate by asking some of our Animation Desk team about their favorite animations. Here\u2019s what they had to say.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Afra, Animation Desk iOS<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>I like cartoons which are imaginative and creative. Cartoons like <em>The Amazing World of Gumball<\/em>, <em>Dexter\u2019s Laboratory<\/em>, and <em>Adventure Time<\/em> are my favorite. Among all though, I think <em>Courage the Cowardly Dog<\/em> inspires me the most. I like its art style and character setting. I think people will conquer their fears and achieve remarkable things for the people they love, just like what Courage does for Molly.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4192\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4192\" style=\"width: 798px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4192\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kdan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Afras-Drawing-with-Border.jpg?resize=798%2C592&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Afra\u2019s drawing of Courage and Agent Cooper\u2019s Thumb\" width=\"798\" height=\"592\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4192\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Afra\u2019s drawing of Courage and Agent Cooper\u2019s Thumb<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4><strong>Lorelei, Animation Desk Android\/Windows<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>I like most of the animated characters created by Studio Ghibli, but Totoro is the first one that comes to mind. I watched Totoro when I was little. The huge, furry creature left a very deep impression on me. He won my heart with that innocent smile and the kindness he showed to Satsuki and Mei, the sisters who just moved to this new town and whose mother is badly ill. People face pressure when they are in a totally new environment. Friendly company is something nice to have.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4194\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4194\" style=\"width: 676px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4194\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kdan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Lorelei.jpg?resize=676%2C510&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Lorelei's sketch of Totoro on Animation Desk\" width=\"676\" height=\"510\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4194\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lorelei&#8217;s sketch of Totoro on Animation Desk<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4><strong>Matthew, Animation Desk Windows<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>My favorite animation is <em>One-Punch Man<\/em> (\u30ef\u30f3\u30d1\u30f3\u30de\u30f3). I especially like the hero, Saitama. I like to see him beat down his competitors. Even though Saitama is a great fighting master, the ranking system does not reflect his true power. He needs to start his career from the very bottom, and his credits are often taken away by other heroes with a higher ranking. While he faces contempt and unfairness, Saitama never gives up on his dream of becoming a hero. His determined and resilient spirit inspires me.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4196\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4196\" style=\"width: 471px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4196\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kdan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/AMatts-Drawing-with-Border.jpg?resize=471%2C332&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Matt's Drawing of One-Punch Man Saitama\" width=\"471\" height=\"332\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4196\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Matt&#8217;s Drawing of Saitama<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4><strong>Yin Hsiu, Animation Desk iOS, Android<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>I like amines about robots! <em>Genki Bakuhatsu Ganbaruger<\/em> (\u5143\u6c17\u7206\u767a\u30ac\u30f3\u30d0\u30eb\u30ac\u30fc), <em>Matchless Raijin-Oh<\/em> (\u7d76\u5bfe\u7121\u6575\u30e9\u30a4\u30b8\u30f3\u30aa\u30fc) and <em>Mad\u00f6 King Granz\u00f6rt<\/em> (\u9b54\u52d5\u738b\u30b0\u30e9\u30f3\u30be\u30fc\u30c8) just to name a few.

The lead character Wataru made a robot, Ry\u016bjinmaru, out of clay in an art class. Wataru was later summoned by the mysterious dragon god. His clay robot became a real robot and together the two joined forces with others teams to save the world. I thought it\u2019s was super cool! I haven\u2019t been summoned by the dragon god yet, but I still have hope.
