One good representation of something or someone was using a symbol. Symbols were the one who represents the actual subjects, company, person and more, same as signs or logo. We can easily identify this thing or brand because it has a symbol representing itself. It’s not just real-life objects that have their own representation, anime itself have symbols that when someone see or check might say “oh it’s from this anime”, that’s one good use of symbol to easily identify what it is. Speaking of symbols here’s some of the trademark that I know once seen by others they will easily figure it out what is it.
1. STRAWHAT PIRATES JOLLY ROGER (ONE PIECE)
Taking the number one spot of course my favorite anime of all time One Piece. Just like in real pirates without a jolly roger you cannot call yourself a pirate and the jolly roger of strawhat symbolizes that they were pirates although they were different pirates to all that we know. Thery’re jolly roger was color black with a skull that wearing a STRAW HAT that symbolizes “Luffy” the captain and protagonist of the series. They’re jolly roger has a big role in the series because it was the one that representing them and it is one highlighted the roles of character. This symbol was known of course by fans but for others that didn’t encounter One Piece yet, this is the moment to know it.
2. SURVEY CORPS LOGO (SHINGEKI NO KYOJIN)
2nd to the line was the logo of Survey Corps which you can found on Shingeki No Kyojin or in English Attack on Titan. This logo basically symbolizes freedom where they believed that one day, they can free themselves on Titans. Their logo was composed of wings of freedom that hold their beliefs, also in there way of living that like a bird one day they can be free within the walls in the anime series. A lot of cosplayer wearing the clothes of Survey Corps of course their logo was on it. Salute to them! Sasageyo!
3. KONOHA’S MARK (NARUTO)
The one that symbolizes the village of Naruto, Konohagakure’s Mark. It is the one that the ninja from the hidden leaf village wear on their head/crest to able to identify that they came from this village, it is also the trademarks of them to show that they are ninja’s that devoted themselves in Konoha. This symbol looks like a leaf that was drawn in the center of a headband. You can easily identify whether the ninja was from other village or from Konoha by the mark on their headband in the series. For others that didn’t know this one, now I’m telling you what it is so that the next time you will see it at least you know.
4. FAIRY TAIL’S INSIGNIA
The mark that tells you are a member of this guild. Fairy tails Insignia symbolizes the character that they are the member of the guild Fairy Tail and also it is the one trademark to know them. For others that didn’t know Fairy Tail it is an anime basically about wizards and adventures of Lucy where she finds her family in this guild. In real life this insignia was like a tattoo that engraved in different parts of body but anyway this is an anime so we don’t have any problem on it.
5. L’S INITIAL (DEATH NOTE)
Have you seen death note? If not, this L’S initial was from the anime death which belong to L Lawliet that holds the death note where he has the control of the life of the criminals he wants to kill wherein just writing the name of the note, he/she will die in an instant. This become trademark and a lot of merchandise was release from it, also a replica of notebook was made in real life though in reality it is just a notebook.
Do you know all this symbol that I have told? There’s still a lot of other symbols that symbolizes different animes well for now they were the one that I listed and tell. Thank you for your time reading.
