Everyone Thinks These Are The 30 Greatest Anime Ever Made
When it comes to Japanese animation, the first things that pop to your mind are probably films like Akira, Ghost in the Shell, or the incredibly beautiful and thoughtful movies created by Hayao Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli. But there is more to animation than these timeless movies. Much more. Japan has produced hundreds, if not thousands, of anime over the years. But you might wonder, what is anime exactly? Is it not the same as cartoons? And the answer would be: Not exactly. In Japan, most of these animated series follow a set story. Most anime are based in comics, which are called mangas, which are faithfully adapted into 20-something minute-long episodes, usually released weekly. Also, while western cartoons have mostly been aimed at children (with a few exceptions properly labeled for adults), animes have traditionally covered every genre you can think of: Children, action-adventure, sports, horror, drama, romance, science fiction, historical fiction, adults, and many many more. On this list, we’re going to name a select few in no particular order, and surely you will find something right for you, whether you just heard today the word “anime” for the first time, or if you are a seasoned fan here to have a nostalgia trip and hoping for new interests to look into. Are you ready? Let’s start with one of the fans’ favorite animes, you’ll definitely know this one! Photo: Courtesy of Crunchyroll

All these songs are catchy, memorable, and we instantly recognize them. However, there's another thing these songs have in common: believe it or not, they're all covers! Often, musicians "borrow" tunes, lyrics, or outright entire songs to play them in their own terms. They usually do this as a tribute to the original artist, but every so often there are other reasons mixed in. So here's a list of 20 iconic songs that are actually covers! Photo: YouTube

20 Female Celeb Lookalikes You Would Swear Were Separated At Birth
With over 7 billion people in the world, is of no surprise that there will be at least two or more that look oddly identical to each other, maybe even more so than if they were actual twins. When it comes to the world of celebrities, be it actors, singers, models and the like; those odds seem to be much more frequent.

But what do these celebrities think when commented on these comparisons? Are they flattered? Or maybe the complete opposite?? Well, let´s see what they have to say about it... Source: YouTube
