An animation style characterized by visible heavy black borders around characters and objects.
This style began being used by a few animation companies in the early 1950s (mostly UPA, of Gerald McBoing-Boing and Mr. Magoo fame), and became dominant in American TV animation during the '60s and '70s, eclipsing the more naturalistic style used in most animation during earlier decades. It was phased out during the early '80s, when more naturalistic styles again became dominant in American animation, but then became the standard yet again (on television at least) during the late '90s, and has remained in active use to this day — shows animated in Adobe Flash and Toon Boom tend to look especially good in this style. However, as of the The New '20s, most mainstream television animation in the US has switched to its less detailed, more expressive cousin: Thin-Line Animation.
This is sometimes considered to be among the most defining traits of modern day American animation, mostly when contrasted with the similar "anime=big eyes" notion to emphasize the differences between U.S. and Japanese animation. When this art style does show up in Japanese media, it tends to have uneven lines and crayon shading in imitation of children's doodles (rakugaki).
Compare and contrast Limited Animation, Web Animation, Super-Deformed, Mismatched Atomic Expressionism. |

Fullmetal Alchemist has done a couple Art Shifts to this type of style for some comical moments.
The first ending of Brotherhood is entirely animated in thick lines and crayon colors, representing drawings made by Ed and Al before they lost their bodies. |

Some episodes of Digimon Data Squad animate the child-level mons in this style, particularly in the series' tail end. It's very inconsistently done and is probably a product of the Off-Model Art Shifts which plague the series. |

Bendy and the Ink Machine gives most objects scratchy outlines of varying thickness to look like a black-and-white cartoon from the 30s. The characters notably have no outlines, although Bendy and the Dark Revival gave them thin glowing white outlines for a more convincingly hands drawn appearance. |
