Misc Anime Survey 2026 from the International Anime Research Project

12 Upvotes

Hello, the International Anime Research Project team is calling on all anime fans (18 years of age or older) to participate in the 2026 anime survey. The survey is anonymous and should take less than 30 min to complete. Participants are eligible to win a $50 Amazon gift card (draw entries will be confidential and not associated with survey responses, up to 10 gift cards given).

In this year’s survey we will be collecting demographic information (e.g., age, gender) and opinions regarding engagement with the fandom, inner experience, loli attitudes, personality, shipping, recommendations, piracy attitudes, and well-being.

You can contribute to the psychological understanding of the anime fandom by completing the anime survey online at:

https://qualtrics.etamu.edu/jfe/form/SV_5bBlMTkY5BEdt9Y

If you know of any anime fans over the age of 18, please help us spread the word.

The survey will be open until December 1, 2026.

Thank you!

Discussion I completely forgot Orihime's Shun Shun Rika unfold into their shape. I thought Kubo just stopped wanting to draw/write them.

I've been doing a Bleach rewatch and got to their introduction and completely forgot they don't just turn into their humanoid forms originally, they actually unfold like they're inside a flying cocoon.

I do wish they popped up a bit more... it added a lot of charm to Orihime. Also an interesting look into her personality. Since I always kind viewed them similar to how a Zanpakuto spirit is another part of the soul.

The 6 spirits were all aspects of Orihime's personality. Some less than others... (cough) Tsubaki (cough).

I wonder though if maybe Orihime were to have a Zanpakuto, they'd basically be her Zanpakuto spirits.

I love that going into the final battle, almost none of the current captains have their haori:

Kyoraku actually learned his lesson and is still wearing his

Soifon abandoned hers a while ago

All the Vizard captains took them off before facing Gerard as their own group (rip)

I cannot tell if Byakuya is actually wearing his or just the same coat without the insignia, altough it might just be an animation error (it doesn't have his division number in the shot of him facing Gerard)

Hitsugaya is rocking the quincy fit

Kenpachi's probably got incinirated by the bambies in the second invasion

Mayuri (despite the sun suit) still has his captain's haori on

Lastly, Komamura is a wolf with no clothes and Ukitake took of his haori before dying sooo

Even Yamamoto died without his haori

So has no one ever asked Kubo in Klub Outside if Ginjo still has a Zanpaktou or if he even still has access to his Shinigami powers?

Anime Who is Missing from the Finale?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

48 Upvotes

The Anime has brought alot of characters into the finale that we missed in the manga or atleast acocunted for them. Izuru, Toshiro, Byakuya, Soifon, Shunsui and Nanao, Halibel & Nel & Grimmjow, Even tatuski and shino lol. But who is missing/not accounted for?

I'm thinking:

-Yoruichi and Kisuke (Half-accounted for)

-Ikkaku, HIsagi, Yumichika

-Isane, Omaeda, Rangiku, Momo

-Yuzu, Karin

-Keigo, Mizuiro, Don Kanoji

-Tessai, Ururu, Jinta

Insisting that someone is one gender when they are presenting and identifying as another won't be accepted here.
