Regardless of your preference between subs or dubbed anime, there's no denying the voices behind the characters are what truly bring them to life on screen. Even a character like Nezuko Kamado, who has had very few spoken moments across the Demon Slayer anime, comes to life through the small growls, grunts and adorable sounds she makes to enamor audiences worldwide. The voice behind Nezuko, Abby Trott, has had a vibrant voiceover career.

Between video games and anime, Abby Trott's given voice to some of the most memorable characters over the last decade. Trott's most recent role as Dandadan's Momo Ayase proves once again that there's nothing like a strong voice to make a character unforgettable. Cbr had the opportunity to sit down and talk with Abby Trott about her career, her favorite moments, and what's on the horizon for her now that the Demon Slayer anime is drawing ever closer to its inevitable ending.

Anime is widely known for its overpowered characters. While these popular characters are usually the protagonists, that is not always the case. The Chimera Ant Mereum was the most significant threat looming over the protagonist's heads in Hunter X Hunter. He is one of the most powerful characters and is only defeated by extremely improbable means.

Many of these anime powerhouses use their strength as a plot device. Lelouch from Code Geass is only overpowered because of his ability to command the wills of others. He uses this ability to become nearly untouchable. Overall, several of anime's overwhelming characters could theoretically give Goku and Superman a run for their money.

This episode focuses on Adrien, who feels anxious about meeting his grandparents. The pressure of family expectations can be overwhelming, and Adrien’s nerves are at an all-time high.

In a show of support, Marinette decides to join Adrien for lunch with his family. She hopes to ease his worries and be there for him during this important meeting.

When Hajime Isayama's Attack on Titan hit the manga scene in 2009, it took the world by storm – a post-apocalyptic, dark fantasy tale about humanity's isolation from the man-eating monsters known as Titans that have been terrorizing them as long as they can remember. Following main protagonist Eren Yaeger on his sworn mission to destroy all Titans, Attack on Titan is unquestionably one of the most tragic, beautiful and heartrending anime of the last decade and a half.

Sixteen years later, both the manga and the anime adaptation have come to a close, and now the epic final chapters arriving on the big screen in North America on February 10, 2025, for a limited, four-day run that finally allows Isayama-sensei's masterpiece to be experienced the way he always intended. Before that, however, Crunchyroll Studios released the Attack on Titan Limited Edition Final Season: The Final Chapters in a beautiful box set that...

Hajime Isayama’s Attack on Titan is known for a lot of things, but the one thing that sits at the core of the story is the bond between the three main characters of the series, Eren Yeager, Mikasa Ackerman, and Armin Arlert. The three characters started their journey together and stayed with each other until the controversial ending of the series.

However, there was a moment in Attack on Titan when the bond between the three characters was questioned, and fans assumed that they would not be together anymore. This was when Eren decided to be the villain of the story and take down his “enemies” all on his own. In order to do this, he had to stay away from Mikasa and Armin.

Bryce Papenbrook, the English voice actor of Eren in Attack on Titan, recently...

If the Attack on Titan fandom is divided on anything, it is the characterization and decisions taken by Eren. The journey of Eren was a lonely one, without anyone to share his experiences with. His progression from a compassionate soul to a revenge-craving persona made fans doubt their beliefs.

Hajime Isayama did not stick to the traditional formula for Shonen protagonists, which might prick a lot of fans. But that is where the originality and attraction of Attack on Titan lies. The voice actors of Mikasa and Eren have made some statements that show their perspective on the main character.

One of the greatest anime and manga series of all time, Attack on Titan by Hajime Isayama, is making a comeback with a special film that will focus on the final two episodes of the series. The movie is called Attack on Titan: The Last Attack and it will witness a special theatrical release from February 10 to February 13 in limited theaters.

The movie will most probably be the last project from the franchise, and thus it holds a special significance in the hearts of fans who have been asking for Eren Yeager, the series’ protagonist, to make a return. It won’t be a stretch to say that Eren is considered by many as the greatest protagonist who has ever been part of the anime industry.

The leading voice actors of Attack on Titan have shared their jaw-dropping stories about working on the critically acclaimed anime drama before saying goodbye to the series for good with the release of Attack on Titan: The Last Attack. The final Attack on Titan anime movie will be released in the United States on Feb. 10, 2025.

Cbr recently interviewed Bryce Papenbrook and Trina Nishimura for the release of Attack on Titan: The Last Attack. The English voice actors respectively play the series’ main characters, Eren Yeager and Mikasa Ackerman. It’s a post-apocalyptic story about humanity’s dire attempt to protect itself from giant humanized creatures known as "Titans" and the horrible moral choices that follow. The growth -- or arguable decline -- of Eren in the story portrays this best, as his actions become more heartless as the show goes on.

In the context of Dragon Ball, Krillin is practically a joke character. He can't go Super Saiyan God, use Hakai or destroy entire timelines with a flick of his hand. But he's earned the title of Strongest Human Being in the World. Even though he's in the lower tier of Dragon Ball Z and Super, Krillin is still leagues above almost any other anime character out there.

That's not to put down the other characters, though. As always, there's more to a good anime than just super strong, over-the-top powers. But when it comes to raw strength, Krillin can take on any Titan, devil or vampire out there.

Aside from Crunchyroll, Hulu is one of the best streaming platforms an anime fan could ask for when looking for something new. Hulu's library of anime series and movies includes something for everyone in the anime community, including must-watch juggernauts like Attack on Titan, Bleach, and both versions of Fruits Basket. But if a Hulu subscriber has already seen all the mega-hits, they can browse the digital library to find something a little more off-beat.

Hulu doesn't have many of the truly obscure anime series out there, but it does feature plenty of decent series that are often overlooked in favor of giants like Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood or Jujutsu Kaisen. These underrated shows are either a bit niche compared to the giants, or they are much better than anime fans may have been led to believe. There are ten such anime titles on Hulu that fans are encouraged to check...

Anime is a genre that lends itself to great tragedy. Anime are meant to make people feel powerful emotions. Not all anime are dramatic and sad. Many of the best anime are comedic or romantic. However, numerous shows - regardless of genre - suffer a game-changing character death at some point in their narrative.

Many anime character deaths are so shocking, gruesome, or heartbreaking that they irrevocably change the course of their stories. Character dynamics and development completely reverse or stop on a dime due to some of these tragic passings. Even if the deceased is a random side character, they can still have one of the biggest impacts on the tone of the rest of the anime.

There are plenty of things to be afraid of in anime. A tsundere's punch. A '90s dub. A thirteen-episode filler arc. However, ruling anime terror above all else is Japan's expressive and eclectic designs for demons and other supernatural entities. This is a culture that not only pulls from a variety of different cultural sources but has dark, twisted ones of its own.

As such, the anime medium has spawned some of the most terrifying incarnations of demonic forces ever to make heavy metal bands jealous. Decades of content have created a variety of iconic and powerful demons that have acted as both formidable foes and beloved main characters. Putting them side by side, however, this list just can't help but think of who would really rule the anime underworld.
