Ace Railgun writes: "What I’m talking about is that moment in a story, in this case anime where the minor characters start to get more screen time and when they start to get back stories. It’s not normally an issue in anime series because the group of protagonists tends to be limited to about four – six but sometimes in movies we see a large cast of characters fight it out for screen time when there just isn’t enough time for them all. There is also the issue of an ever expanding cast in shonen anime. Often this is capped but in rare occassions it’s not and it becomes very hard to rememeber all the characters and even harder to care about all of them."
