21 Anime Background Characters That You Never Noticed

_______________________________

If you guys haven't heard the news yet, GoBoiano is now helping anime viewers around the world understand anime better with our new translation service! 

We're calling it "Sonder", which is the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own. 

Have you ever wondered, "Wow, I wonder what that background character is doing?" We sure as hell have! Every character, even background characters are a main character in their own way. Now we can peek into their stories with Sonder (which is a totally real app we made).
