JJK, Spy x Family and Trigun Were Big Winners for 2023 Anime Crushes
As the data reveals, Jujutsu Kaisen was the runaway leader in producing anime crushes, with Trigun Stampede and Spy x Family coming second. This was on full display after figure makers Design Coco unveiled life-sized versions of Gojo, which attracted all sorts of thirst posts and fantasies. Nanami's hairpulling of Haruta in Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 went viral, while Yor's mix of warmth and deadliness continues to evoke feelings all across the spectrum.
Released this month, the Crunchyroll poll results follow a report from Polygon on anime consumption habits, which revealed that 44% of anime-watchers had developed a crush on a character. This number grew to 58% among Gen Z. Off-screen, anime also played a role in friendship, identity and attraction, with 50% of Gen Z admitting that the medium influenced their attraction.

Fans can feast their eyes on Jujutsu Kaisen's attractive cast while fending off the despair of the actual story. Crunchyroll streams the series, which is described: "Yuji Itadori is a boy with tremendous physical strength, though he lives a completely ordinary high school life. One day, to save a classmate who has been attacked by curses, he eats the finger of Ryomen Sukuna, taking the curse into his own soul. From then on, he shares one body with Ryomen Sukuna. Guided by the most powerful of sorcerers, Satoru Gojo, Itadori is admitted to Tokyo Jujutsu High School, an organization that fights the curses... and thus begins the heroic tale of a boy who became a curse to exorcise a curse, a life from which he could never turn back."
