A number of anime series over the history of the medium have focused on “Rescue Arcs” which normally will see the heroes of the television shows rallying together to save one of their friends from certain doom, with the likes of Bleach, Attack On Titan, Naruto, One Piece, and more participating in similar storylines. Recently, anime fans have taken to social media to debate which series had the best “Rescue Arc” in their histories, which would normally bring in some big changes to each individual series, whether or not the heroes were ultimately successful or not.
