Please tell me there's some scientific theory that says our thoughts are somehow still in motion after our brains stop functioning, almost like a dream simulator (which would explain why so many people "see heaven"). I need there to be some basis for my belief that anime women will be waiting for me on the other side.

What you're talking about is a near death experience, which is your brain hallucinating because it's dying. It's like a video game glitching out before it crashes.

Your brain releases a bunch of chemicals before you die, if I recall correctly DMT is one of those. It's like being forced on a drug trip with all kinds of trippy side effects. If your love of anime is strong enough you'll probably hallucinate about that. It's nothing you can't achieve through a properly made drug cocktail though.

There isn't. Have you ever been under anesthesia, op? Death is like that except without the part where you wake up. Which is to say death isn't like anything at all since anesthesia just seems like instant time travel between the point when you're put under the point when you're woken up.

Good comparison.
Death ain't shit.

It works, try jumping off a bridge. You won't actually experience the world where you die, I've tried it.

The hard problem means we cant rule anything out. Most likely is what says

We don't know what causes consciousness, but the particles that make up your brain aren't going anywhere, also the "you" of the past no longer exists so chances are we only exist in any form for a split second, an infinitely small moment in time or the time it takes for a few synapses or something.
Imagine someone put your brain into a blender and rearranged it into a replica of you just with the particles rearranged. Would it be "you"?

On the other hand, if your love of anime ISN'T strong enough, you'll be trapped in an endless nightmare of sexually endowed African Americans having their way with you, forever.
It's really quite scientific.
