Since the 90's, Japanese anime has become more and more popular to the general public over the world. Also, the technology started to be better and developed, CGI(Computer-generated imagery) became increasingly commonplace as a supplemental technique. This technique could manipulate images ever won over traditional-animation. Hayao Miyazaki used this technique on his animation in 1997, which was "Mononoke-Hime". He animated demonic tendrils and a few other effects after his staff demonstrated how seamlessly they could blend the animation in.
The first completely computer animated anime, A.LI.CE. in 1999. However, in that time, the technology wasn't good as nowadays, therefore, it didn’t look like “anime" As more and more studios began making use of the new digital technology, most of them chose methods that blended well with hand-drawn cels. Due to the fact that computer processing capacity increased and prices went down so studios decided to use digital ink and paint. In this method, after each frame is drawn it is scanned into a computer, then colored and composited digitally instead of coloring or painting by hands.
