I think the term primarily refers to an animation style that very heavily borrows from that of anime. Not just the occasional influence. The best examples of this I can think of are Teen Titans, Avatar: The Last Airbender/The Legend of Korra, and an underknown show called Oban Star Racers. The last one almost seems impossible to distinguish from anime at some times, and that's partly because it actually did have Japanese animators working on it.
