I remember watching Fullmetal Alchemist the Movie: Conqueror of Shamballa at its American premiere at Anime Expo in 2006. The energy in that crowd was electrifying.

No and Yes.
When I was younger, I dreamt about Mixed things like Anime/Manga/Novel/Movies/Stories, in particular stories where I was invincible protagonist of that dream (or sometimes just a bystander), like everyone is "WOW!!" looking at me or just random daily life and things. But, times like that are rare. Actually I don't dream much or maybe I just don't know I've dream. I sleep like a dead wood you see. Even if the surrounding is noisy, I can do well sleeping.

P.S. Oh! On that subject, I normally sleep like a dragon. And find myself in a dungeon in the morning regularly.

No. The closest would be me playing a videogame in a dream or something. Not that i have many lucid dreams.

I rarely remember my dreams, but from what I do remember, only once, and even in that instance the setting and characters were from was a manhwa (A Night of a Thousand Dreams, to be exact), not a manga. Odd, because manhwa make up a very small percentage of my reads.

And I've never had an anime-esque dream at all. Which is weird because I have Hollywood movie-esque dreams all the time - mostly horror and thriller - even though I watch only a handful of those compared to my much more intensive anime-watching.

Maybe it's that manga and anime consume so much of my waking thoughts that there's no room for them in my dreams 🤣

No I've not had any dreams about manga's I've read but had it happen with some books, films or series I read/watched before going to sleep. Most of the time I just know that it was this or that movie, serie or book while I dream about it.

Well anyway it is not really my favourite way to wake up because when I notice that I know it I'll wake up and have trouble falling asleep again.

I ever dreamt about being taught swordfight by Miyamoto Musashi (Vagabond). Somehow I was taught that at my junior high school place (in the ceremony hall).

Nothing fancy happened I guess, just some chit-chat n some swordfight. But it left me a big impression after I woke up.

Not quite yes or no. If it was video games, it happened to me once, but with anime and manga, from the few dreams I remember, I never see the characters or am I in their world, but the theme of the manga/anime/etc gets in my dreams.

The most recent one and the one I'm basing this on was about dancing and I had it a day or two after I had read Ballroom e Youkoso. I remember I was dancing, but not much more than that. Most of the times I wake up, remember I dreamed about something and can remember it quite clearly then, but if I go to sleep again or a few hours pass, most of the time I forget most of the dream.

Yes, or manga-like, usually while/after binge watching or reading an anime or manga I may dream with a similar world with many of those elements and some a bit different or from other work.
