  • 1997, Mark Langer, "Animatophilia, cultural production and corporate interests", in A Reader in Animation Studies (ed. Jayne Pilling), page 149:
    Since the 1970s, as 'classical Hollywood' animation joined the mainstream, and as its codes became the new norm of taste, the cutting edge of animatophilia moved from the cult of Disney and Warner products to such sources as early television animation, children's broadcasting, commercials and other forms of expression that remain disenfranchised both by mass culture and the academic/art establishment.

    The term "animatophilia" resonates with the terms “furryphilia” and “toonophilia” which fans use, though their usage includes the connotation of sexual attraction to the characters as well.
