Many anime delve into exploring economic and social themes in their storytelling, bringing strong societal critique.
A few examples of anime that provide these perspectives are ‘Paradise Kiss,’ where a group of fashion design students explores social realities related to pursuing dreams and the challenges of entering the workforce; or even ‘Tokyo Magnitude 8.0,’ where a major earthquake affects Japan and the social and economic consequences of the disaster are portrayed, highlighting issues such as survival, cooperation, and government response.
