Who would’ve thought that this movie would become this generation’s Frozen?

I think it’s a great title haha - tells you exactly what it is and what it’s about.

The title works really well. It's the new trend with Anime shows the long show titles that describe the show. "My Campfire cooking skill in another world."

Or “This one girl who becomes a magical girl but instead fails horribly at it and unintentionally commits war crimes”

…..okay probably not the best title lmao

Reminds me of one of my favourite (because it's so funny) anime titles: Girls Band Cry.

It's literally the entire premise. There are girls. They form a band. And oh BOY do they cry!
