To effectively remember anime characters, repetition and visualization are key strategies. Repetition involves repeatedly encountering and interacting with the characters, while visualization involves creating mental images or associations to aid memory. According to a study by Karpicke and Blunt (2011), spaced repetition and elaborative rehearsal, which are forms of repetition, significantly improve long-term retention. Visualization techniques, such as creating a story or scenario involving the character, have also been shown to enhance memory formation, as supported by research by Hulme and Brown (2003). By combining these methods, individuals can more easily recall anime characters.
