Dan Rockwell discusses using Japanese animation, or anime, as inspiration for backcasting future technologies and societies. He suggests choosing a future state to envision, then looking back to identify technologies in today's world that could enable that future. Anime often depicts advanced technologies like humanoid robots, augmented reality, and networked digital identities decades before their real-world emergence. Analyzing anime from the perspectives of story, characters, and societal impacts can provide insights into seeds of change in today's world that could grow into the futures portrayed in anime.
