“Animation is a technique that enables a series of static images to look as if they are alive, able to communicate verbally, with action and with the ability to move . Animations are widely used in various industries such as advertisement, entertainment, education and science. In Japan, animation is known as Anime. Anime is an art that can help adolescents to shape and build their identities based on their favorite anime” Mohar, D. Bringing the outside in: One teachers ride on the Anime highway, Language Arts. 8,2, 2003, pp.110-117. “Anime can also help develop various skills and abilities among children” Frey, N. & Fisher, D. Using graphics novels, anime and the Internet in an urban high school. English Journal, 93,3, 2004, pp. 19. Therefore, we can use animation to educate children as well as adolescents about proper behaviors beside entertain them.

“ reviewed 50 films released between 1937 and 1997 by 5 major production companies (Walt Disney Co, MGM/United Artists, Warner Brothers Studios, Universal Studios, and 20th Century Fox) that were available on videotape for episodes of tobacco and alcohol use. They found that more than two thirds of animated children’s films feature tobacco or alcohol use in story plots without clear verbal messages of any negative long-term health effects associated with use of either substance. Exposure to movie smoking is risk factor for habit formation. A Review of 40 selected studies on smoking in the movies showed that smoking in movies increases adolescent smoking initiation. Exposure to movie smoking makes viewers’ attitudes and beliefs about smoking and smokers more favorable and has a dose-response relationship with adolescent smoking behavior “Charlesworth, A. & Glantz, S.A. Smoking in the Movies Increases Adolescent Smoking: Strong empirical evidence indicates that smoking in movies increases adolescent smoking initiation. PEDIATRICS, 116, 6, 2005, pp. 1516-1528. children and adolescents could
interact with conducts and behavior in animation whether the behaviors are positive or negative, therefore developing edutainment software which aim to educate or awareness at the same time entertain users is a good alternative to bring about behavioral change by engendering specific social and cultural attitudes such as social issues and acceptable behaviors.
