About Kanishma Ray

Kanishma Ray is a writer at TheBestWarGames, who's known to play a mean violin (decently, that is). She's a Computer Science student by day and a wordsmith by night, with a knack for crafting engaging and helpful content that her readers love. When she's not busy writing, you can find her nose buried in a book or controller in hand, consuming media like it's her job (oh wait, it is).

Favorite Anime

Ray's go-to series are Jujutsu Kaisen and One Piece — she's devoured every episode, manga chapter, and spoiler thread, and she's always ready to dive into a deep-dive discussion on power systems, symbolism, and plot intricacies. She's chronically online, scouring Reddit and Twitter for the latest updates or proudly displaying her One Piece figure collection.

Favorite Movies

For Ray, a timeless classic that never fails to tug at her heartstrings is Doraemon's Steel Troops. It was one of her earliest anime films, and its nostalgia factor is strong - it transports her back to lazy afternoons spent watching cartoons as a kid. Even among Ghibli and Shinkai masterpieces, Steel Troops holds a special place in her heart.

Favorite TV Shows

Ray is a CW girl through and through! She grew up on the earlier generation of DC shows like Green Arrow and The Flash, and they'll always be perfect in her eyes. She doesn't need them to be the 'best' - they're the ones that sparked her passion for superheroes and shaped her childhood.
