There are 2 different electrodes, right? One’s an anode and one’s a cathode. And apparently, a negative electrode is called an anode. Since it’s negative, shouldn’t it attract *positive ions* so reduction will take place? Why does oxidation take place instead?

No, reduction is place on katode. And oxidation is placed on anode.
Oxidations take place on anode because the positive ion more reduce the negative electrode.
