In the anime, the concept of time as a fluid entity is often portrayed through non-linear storytelling, time-travel elements, and characters experiencing time in unexpected ways. The narrative may present events out of chronological order, play with the idea of changing the past or future, or depict characters existing in multiple timelines simultaneously. This approach allows the anime to delve into themes of destiny, consequences of one's actions, and the interconnectedness of past, present, and future.
