I think the distinction is somewhat arbitrary. There's Japanese anime shovelware, good and bad anime. Chinese studios have been making contributions and have been part of the Japanese anime industry. So I don't make a distinction generally or primarily.

I guess the biggest factor and differentiator is the audio language - if that is where you want to draw the line. (A consequence of the primary or only targeted market.)

I've watched one with CN dub, which was an interesting experience. But I'm willing to accept and explore it and it feeling different - what matters in the end is the dub/voicing and general audio quality.

The one I watched was ok. Decent, but not more. I watched it through. I peeked into Link Click - which is rated quite high on AniDB (8/10) - but it didn't particularly get me invested and interested. Which is not a Donghua vs Anime thing primarily though.

Overall I think it's a very good thing. China is a big market and has the chance of becoming a big industry - even moreso than it is now. It means we can and will get more products, more to choose from, more good stuff too. I'm looking forward to it.

I'm not seeking it out actively. But AniDB is one of my discovery resources, and it lists them too. (Condition created primarily for the Japanese, Chinese, or Korean ("CJK") market) So I will see them and consider them for what they are.

Now I'm wondering whether the one I watched a while ago was Chinese or Korean. 🤔 I don't quite remember.
