Google Trends: Ranking The 10 Provinces in Canada That Identify As Otaku From Least to Most 10-1

If any of you follow me by now, I’m sure most of you—if not all of you—have read my article about which state in America identifies as the most otaku, from least to most, courtesy of Google Trends. In that article, I not only included basic information about the states and their landscape of otaku life (such as anime conventions, shops, etc.), but also detailed what life would be like for an otaku there. It was done through a quick yet in-depth analysis. The reception to these five articles that I published? Well…

They were critically acclaimed, and I’d argue these articles are what kick-started the growth for Animangemu. I received a wave of interest from fellow otakus in all 50 states. Some were dying to know who would be number one, or if California or Texas is better, or how the heck Florida ended up only at (insert rank). Because of this, I’ve also received interest from fellow otakus around the world—Europe, Latin America, Asia, etc.—to publish an article exactly like this. My fellow otakus around the world, as you all know, I work tirelessly to bring you the best content for the otaku life. Indeed I am, but believe me when I tell you: making articles like these IS NOT EASY!!! Of course, I sincerely hope to deliver them to you as soon as possible! Time after time, I would like to work on these types of articles more. So, who am I starting with? None other than our fellow northern neighbors, Canada! Like in America and the rest of the world, the popularity of anime and manga has grown significantly in Canada. In fact, check this out! Did you know that Canadian otaku life gave birth to many famous phenomena that are important in the anime and manga community?

First, Canada is known for dubbing many iconic anime in English dubs that became well known: Death Note, Inuyasha, and yes, Dragon Ball! That’s right—WAY before the Funimation dub. Numerous Canadian cartoons were inspired by Japanese anime, and some are even well known here in America. Canada is also home to well-known iconic anime conventions that even industry professionals from Japan and America attend. Anime and manga have enjoyed significant growth in Canada. Like many nations around the world, Canada had its first exposure to anime and manga in the 1960s and 1970s. However, it was not until the 1980s and 1990s that anime and manga began to build a massive stronghold in Canada, thanks to television networks. In the 2000s, the popularity of anime and manga experienced an unprecedented explosion in the country, all in part due to the rise of the internet and dedicated online communities. In the 2010s, the popularity continued strongly through the rise of social media and streaming services. Today, it’s stronger than ever, and like everywhere else in the world, the otaku life is thriving. The question is: which province is the most passionate?

In my previous article for America, I used Google Trends to see which state searches for anime the most, and the results were interesting. However, this time I wanted to see which province identifies most as otaku by simply checking which one looks up the definition the most. Not only that, but I will also be using sources and research to back up and explain why each province is ranked where it is. Now, for Canada, this list—unlike the previous one for the states in America—makes a lot more sense, and some of the provinces you will see ranked will probably surprise you. Also, unlike my previous article on the same topic which required five separate articles for all 50 states, I will be able to do the entire article in one go thanks to Canada having just ten provinces. That way, readers won’t be turned off by the horrific TL;DR issue of scrolling through a long page full of nothing but text, and instead can enjoy reading the article with a moderate amount of reading while waiting in anticipation for the next one on the same topic. Without further ado, let’s get started!

Google Trends: Ranking The 50 States in America That Identify As Otaku From Least to Most (PART 5) 10-1

NOTE: This is the final part of the article

Last year, I made an article that covered the ranking of all 50 states based on the popularity of anime from worst to best, on Google trends. As a result, that article was one of my very firsts. As I was starting, I noticed that although it received a positive fanfare among readers, I made quite a bit of mistakes in regard to the info and resources that I wrote in that article. In fact, I missed out on a lot of important info that should have been said during that time. Now, here I am with a new article of the same subject, but now added with a nicer layout, updated info, better research, and custom descriptions said by me that is based on my research.

The popularity of anime has grown incredibly for over the last decades. While the medium itself always had an American presence between the 1960s to the 1980s. However, it was not until the 1990s when the medium began to knockdown the mainstream audience thanks to the introduction of anime on children’s television channels. When the 2000s dawned, the popularity of anime increased only more tenfold thanks to the advancement of the internet and the availability of forums, websites, fan subs, and social media. Throughout the 2010s and 2020s, the medium has enjoyed unprecedented growth thanks to the rise of streams, social media, and more websites and forums that make it easier for otakus to access too. Now, anime has become so popular now that you can pretty much find fans of anime in the middle of nowhere. Even in those middle of nowhere places, goodies for otakus exist at every corner of the map, and all 50 states have anime conventions or some kind of ComicCons with anime and manga stuff located.

Continuing on from my previous article. I used Google trends to see which state searches up on anime the most, and the results were interesting. However, instead, I wanted to see which state identifies most as otaku by simply seeing which state looks up the definition as the most. Not only that, but I will also be using sources and research backup to explain the possibility of the question on why the state is ranked on that number. This list, unlike the previous one, makes a lot more sense now, and some of the states that you will see ranked will probably surprise, and number 1 may surprise you the most. Also, unlike my previous article of the same topic which contained all 50 states in one article, instead, I have decided to publish separate articles by adding only 10 states to the article ranked from least to most. So that way, readers won’t be turned off by the horrific TL;DR issue, by scrolling through a long page with nothing but texts, and instead, enjoy reading the article with a moderate amount of reading and waiting in anticipation for the next article of the same topic. Without a further a do, let’s get started!
