Anime fans of popular anime series like Naruto, One Piece, and Jujutsu Kaisen have proved time and time again that they are not someone to be messed with. Be it an online war with anime haters, or a real-life incident, anime fans always seem to use the ideologies of the anime world in their own lives. One such instance was proved by an MMA fighter by the name of Polyana Viana. Viana, a UFC strawweight competitor, is an anime enthusiast, especially Naruto. On her social media pages, she frequently posts cosplays of various anime characters.
But Viana not only shows her love for anime in cosplays but also in action. In an incident a few years ago when Viana was about to get robbed, she decided to activate her anime mentality and fought the robber to the point where he begged the police to arrest him.
