I have a friend who loves anime. She told me about nightcore and the
characters in anime look like the characters in nightcore.

Are nightcore and anime the same thing?

Is nightcore a type of anime?


Nightcore is the name for a type of music edit, making things a bit faster and
higher pitched. From what I've seen, it's mostly done on songs from anime, or
japanese songs, and have anime-like imagery associated with it.

The wikipedia article has more on it.

As for anime, it's the term used for animated shows and movies, typically
referring to those created in Japan.

No, nightcore is not Anime.

Nightcore is a music genre where the pitch and speed of a song is changed. It
is also sometimes known as nighstep or sped up dubstep.

The nightcore videos do often come paired with anime-related images instead of
music videos, but is usually not related to the depicted anime whatshowever.
