Toon (n) - A character in an animated cartoon
Animated cartoon (n) - a motion picture consisting of a sequence of drawings, each so slightly different that when filmed and run through a projector the figures seem to move.

Animes are toons!
Except you know what Zehira is referring to. Cartoon (in this case toon) is mainly known as the more American style for animation, while anime is the Japanese one. It has a lot to do with the proportions and body types.
