Why does anime and manga stories have long title names? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! It's a common joke within the anime community that anime and manga have long names. Even within anime, if a character is an otaku, their favorite anime or manga usually has a really long name. But why is this? Well, this is actually a pretty widely spread myth. A lot of anime and manga actually have very short, unique names. This is so they can be remembered and found more easily. Series that do have a long name often shortens the title to only one or two words. The joke that anime series have long names started a while ago, and it's just stayed like that ever since. Pretty much the only ones who do have longer names are comedy series, which are using their titles to make fun of the people who say anime titles are too long. There are a few serious series that have long names, but this isn't very common at all. I think it's interesting that this joke has continued to exist even though it's not actually a common thing to see. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!
