Yes, Bambi is not an anime, but this is where the big eyes come from. Osamu Tezuka, pioneer of Japan’s anime and manga, was very much inspired by Bambi’s eyes, so he decided to draw his characters with big eyes, which later became a national style. Lately the style has evolved in to the trend that you see in today’s anime. But not every anime today uses such eyes, it depends on the artist’s preference.
According to some artists the advantage of using large eyes is the eyes can convey the character’s emotions much better in this kind of art.
