According to my Japanese romantic partner, every animated show or movie or anything is called anime, no matter what country it comes from.
She still doesn't understand that it's a loan word in English and "anime" actually means animation of a specific artistic style originating in Japan specifically, in America and other English-speaking areas.
Edit: A lot of what people think is Japanese animation is actually outsourced to South Korean studios in order to save money.
