Anime fans can enjoy their favorite anime moments on social media apps and reels. Like viral scenes from movies, we find Scenes, styles, and art styles getting viral in Japanese Anime. It is also not different for people from similar fandoms to come together and discuss their favorite shows and content. Here are the top ten Anime Styles and moments that went Viral on Social Media.
1. Satoru Gojo's eyes
Jujutsu Kaisen has gone viral on Social Media platforms, especially its characters like Yuuji Itadori and the demon Sukuna. But (you can fight me for this), no one has a larger fanbase than Gojo Saturo. Many edits are going viral for JJK's Gojo- his eyes, voice, and personality. Gojo Saturo is said to be the most powerful character in Jujutsu Kaisen. He possesses the 'Six eyes' powers, which makes him the strongest. Jujutsu Kaisen follows the story of different characters- it starts with Yuuji Itadori, who accidentally eats the finger of the Demon King Sukuna.
2. Chainsaw Man
Even before the release of the anime Chainsaw Man, it started going viral on social media. Fans loved the characters, especially Makima. After the Anime got released, the scenes were getting highlighted. It is one of the most loved Anime of 2022. Chainsaw Man follows the life of Denji, who is reborn as a half-human half-devil (his pet demon Pochita saves his life by merging with his body). After meeting with Makima from the Public Safety Devil Hunters, he dedicated his life towards insipid goals.
3. Anya From Spy X Family
SpyXFamily went viral on social media after its release. There are many reasons for this Anime to go viral- like cosplays of Anya and Yor Forger, the plot, and Anya's cuteness. SpyXFamily is the story of a spy, Twilight, who fakes his identity as Loid Forger. He gets a task to get married and raise a child for the sake of Operation Strix.
4. Dance Trend- Darling In The Franxx
Darling in the Franxx is one of the most viral Anime on Social Media in 2020. It gained buzz after someone made an edited video of the character Zero Two dancing to the song 'Hai Phut Hon.' Even though many didn't know about the Anime, it did spark the dance trend. Darling in the Franxx follows the story of the relationship between a hybrid human, Zero Two, and Hiro.
5. Naruto Run
Naruto is a well-known ninja Anime character because the entire show gets based on him. But in 2020, one thing that became more famous was 'Naruto Run'- which consists of sprinting fast with throwing arms behind the back (like a seal swimming on land). Naruto may not have been the first character to show this kind of run, but this run certainly popularised the Naruto show among non-Anime fans.
6. Jojo Pose
The Anime Jojo's Bizzare Adventure is already well known among fans for different reasons- like its unique art style, dialogue, memes, music, and poses. Jojo Pose is the pictures with over-the-top outfits and contorted poses of the characters from the Anime. The filter is applied to match the sharp and distinct art style of the Anime 'Jojo's Bizzare Adventure.' Even though this manga series got released in 1987, it still is popular.
7. Haikyuu!!- For its Intense Plays
The volleyball anime Haikyuu!!, a beloved sports Anime among fans, went viral on Social Media. Many scenes that went viral show the intense plays of the Karasuno team, especially the duo- Hinata and Kageyama. This Anime follows the story of the growth of Hinata Shoyo, which got inspired to play volleyball after watching his senior 'Little Giant' on television.
8. Demon Slayer- Animation
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba is well-known, even among non-fans, for its outstanding art style and animation level. The animation during the fight scenes is immense. The production house Ufotable in the first movie, Mugen Train, gave us the fight scene of the flame Hashira Rengoku against the Demon Akaza. The second season gave the intense fight in the Entertainment District arc. Demon Slayer is worthy of its hit.
9. 'Is it a Pigeon?' Guy
Even though we're living in confusing times, no one can be as confused as the viral anime-confused guy. The male Anime character who points at a butterfly asks, 'Is it a Pigeon?' This character belongs to the 1990s Japanese Anime series 'The Brave Fighter of Sun Fighbird,' which got viral and still has emerging memes.
10. Yaosobi- Anime Openings
Yaosobi is a Japanese music group formed by Sony. This group released songs based on novels. They went viral on social media after the debut single, 'Yoru ni Kakeru.' Yaosobi gained popularity and wrote successful songs for Anime series like 'Beasters' and 'Oshi no Ko.
