The answer

We have previously clarified the permissibility of watching animated films (cartoons) as long as they do not contain violations. Your statement is a resolve to abandon something for the sake of Allah, and it is neither an oath () nor a covenant (ahd), as both require explicit verbalization. Your intention was to abandon what you believed to be forbidden for the sake of Allah, and the permissible anime was not included in your resolve. Therefore, there is no sin upon you in watching anime in the permissible manner.
