Another trick is to throw out a character that appeared in a manga short and/or an OVA (or literally anything else) who no one at all remembers because they only appear in it for like one minute or three pages of whatever it is is if it's not a well-known minor thing despite being connected to an actually well-known thing~

I trip him up sometimes but that's like throwing out the latest characters from light novels whose anime hasn't even aired yet xD
Youtuber's are also fairly popular, you probably need someone more niche.
