Ahoy, anime fans and stans! Do you ever find yourself dreaming of being whisked away — or isekai'd — to your favorite anime? If your favorite anime is Attack on Titan, Made in Abyss, or Berserk, I'm not talking to you! No one wants to spend their time running away from towering mutant humans, Primeval creatures, or demonic apostles of evil. I am speaking to those who spend their work commutes imagining a life as a ninja of the Hidden Leaf Village, a pirate sailing the Grand Line with the Straw Hats, or a bounty hunter in space. Indeed, even the most mundane tasks in these 2D worlds must be more exciting than real life. Unfortunately, so far, science has proven unable to teleport us across dimensions to specific realities. However, technology has advanced enough to make it appear as if you are anywhere! If you're an anime fan with a Zoom meeting scheduled this week, scroll down for some scenic backgrounds you can use to spice up your call.

  • Anime backgrounds are always so beautifully detailed! Japanese illustrators put a lot of effort into them, and many are actually based on real life locations.

  • If you choose the background above, you can excuse yourself from your online work meeting by claiming that the Wizard Howl has just arrived and is having a tantrum and turning into goop before your very eyes because his hair color is a little off.
