Perhaps someone from Muscat is found in room animated (5)

I believe the answer is:

omani

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'perhaps someone from muscat is' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'in room animated' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'OMANI' is hidden within 'room animated'.

'found' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for omani that I've seen before include "Inhabitant of Middle Eastern sultanate" , "Naomi (anag) -- from Muscat?" , "Someone from Muscat" , "One from Muscat" , "Eg, a native of Muscat" .)
