Trap characters in anime have always added a much-needed X factor to the story. If you are reading this, you already have an idea about trap characters, but if you still have doubts, let me give you a brief explanation. When a boy cross-dresses as a girl, it is called a trap, and when a girl cross-dresses as a boy, it is called a reverse trap. It sounds like reverse Uno, I know. And they are called trap characters because they are often so well dressed as their opposite gender; that the person in front of them addresses them with…
The recent One Piece chapters revolve around the mad genius Dr. Vegapunk. Be it the appearance of the modified version of Pacifista known as Seraphim based on the former warlords; or the arrival of the six satellites — bodies that identify themselves as Dr. Vegapunk with different aspects of his personality traits, the mystery surrounding the infamous scientist is finally getting revealed. Previously in One Piece Chapter 1064, the Blackbeard Pirates and the Heart Pirates are seen in a battle where the winner takes it all.

Anime viewing is at an all-time high, with OTT platforms licensing and producing more and more anime with each passing year. While there are thousands of titles to choose from, the genre button makes it easier for you to narrow down your search. If you are part of the anime community on the internet, be it on Reddit, Twitter, or any other site, you must have heard the terms shounen genre, isekai genre, shoujo genre, and so on. To be honest, I was also among those who thought shounen was a genre until I got familiarized with anime throughout the…
Is there anyone who hasn’t heard about the term MBTI? There are tons of MBTI experts, but I doubt there are people who haven’t heard about it, even if they have no interest in MBTI tests whatsoever. If you are reading this, you are well aware of this MBTI type, but if you are someone who isn’t, let me give you a quick summary. There are 16 personality types, and we are talking about INFP in this listicle. In INFP, I stands for Introversion, N stands for Intuition, F stands for Feeling, and P stands for Perceiving. Yeah, the N is…
The abolition of the Warlord system raised many eyebrows. And the fans are witnessing the aftermath of that shocking decision in the last couple of One Piece chapters following the conclusion of the Wano Arc. But, one question was yet to be answered, why did the World Government make enemies of the strongest pirates of the sea when they needed them the most? And, with the release of One Piece Chapter 1059, that question was answered as well. During Marine’s raid on Amazon Lily to capture Boa Hancock, the World Government’s new weapons, the Seraphims, were introduced. What Is A…
If not for the black anime characters, anime would not be so fun to watch. Black characters in anime are referred to as anyone with dark skin. As much as I’ve seen anime, black anime characters always bring something extra to the story making it more lively. Either they are too energetic or too calm. It’s either black or white for them. There’s no gray area. And that is what makes them all the more fun to watch. With that in mind, I have created this list to talk about black anime characters who have left a long-lasting impression on…
Animation is for children, is what an ignorant being would say. Anime – referred to as animation in Japan – caters to an ever-growing audience with different stories; they are relatable, relaxing, adrenaline-rushing, and visually stunning. Anime has something for everyone. Be it a kindergartener, a teen, an adult, or an elder, there are thousands of anime suitable for each age group with uncountable options. While anime like Dragon Ball, Pokemon, Digimon, and Naruto among a few others, helped the medium of anime gain worldwide popularity. It was not until the late 2010s that the curve seemed to move upward…

Animation and anything related to it is subjective. That said, when the animation makes you want to search about the creators behind it, you know it’s a great piece of work. But when an animation makes you want to stop, you understand it is not your cup of tea. Similarly, the animation you like might not be well-received by others. And, that’s okay. In this list, I have mentioned the anime that have caught my attention and made me research the staff behind them. But before moving on, remember one thing, an anime is made by several animators, so when a…

Overpowered Main Character. i.e. OP MC in anime was, is, and always will be popular due to its endless entertaining value and the satisfaction the viewers get by seeing the protagonist beating the fish out of the cocky villains.

That doesn’t mean there aren’t any other OP MCs as strong as Saitama. There are quite a few in isekai anime, which you may or may not know…
Kawaii nee……These couple of words are very-common in anime. In Japanese, kawaii means cute, be it a living being or an artificial one. Even the word kawaii is kawaii itself. In anime, there isn’t any genre that specifies the kawaii/cute element. Regardless of the theme, plot, and progression of an anime, the kawaii element can be used at any given moment. And the anime that nails the execution and does justice to the word kawaii is often known as the kawaii anime in the anime community. With that in mind, I have created a list that has kawaii charms from…
Romance is an emotion hard to define with words. Yeah, Google can show you one, but that’s just a vague meaning of this vast and mysterious emotion. Romance can break you or build you. Romance can make the worst days into the brightest ones, and it can also reverse UNO you. Romance can pull you out of misery and can sucker punch you right in the gut. Romance can be physical intimacy to some, and to some, it can be the holding of hands. While to some, it can just be that warm hug at the end of the day.…

Do you know how many Pokémon are there throughout each generation? If you know, do you remember all of their names? The answer is you cannot. It is impossible. But you can remember a specific type of Pokémon, be it a bird, mouse, horse, penguin, fish, dog, or rabbit type, besides many other types. While you cannot remember all of them, some of these types have only a handful of Pokémon, just like the eight Rabbit/Bunny Pokémon. Before that, let’s make one thing clear. Sometimes the type of Pokémon isn’t what meets the eye. There are many factors to determine…
