Anime Where Character Is Trapped in a Time Despite the existence of fourth dimension-loops, stable and malleable timelines, and parallel dimensions, there are actually only two types of time travel in anime. From the present to the past or future and from the past or the future to the present. Plot-wise, these types are further divided into two subgroups. 1 where every activeness has massive consequences and i where fourth dimension travel is only a device to annotate on the era that the protagonist is exploring (from now on, Time Camping instead of Time Travelling). Equally a rule of thumb, Fourth dimension Camping ground media tends to be pretty uncomplicated and does not get out viewers with an aftertaste of bitter existential dread. On the other mitt, Fourth dimension Travelling shows are more rewarding to watch for those into intricate narrative mechanics. Updated on May 12th, 2
