What is the most /fit/ positive show to show to kids? Boys in particular. Pic related has my vote.

>The ripped characters are seen training, working out, and sparring. The swole characters are swole because they work hard and eat right.

>Antagonists and protagonists are both shown to be strong and have unique personalities independent of their fitness. No dumb gymrat or roided up jerk stereotypes. The fit characters are a standard, not an exception.

>The once-bald manlet still gets to bang the hot blonde robot girl.

>The main character is a huge bro, who is a good father and teacher. He is also incredibly strong, but has no desire to hurt those that are weaker. Huge animal lover too. He is a strong patriarch who isn't afraid to show his soft side.

>inspired a lot of its viewers to lift later in life.

try to avoid to see future episodes and make him watch from begining. only hard thing to do is convince him to not get spoilers. it ruins the thrill and surprise effect.

Public school is shit tier in the US if you don't live in a wealthy area. People always say "Well learn for yourself outside of school" which I agree with, but don't force me to spend a third of my day at a place with the claimed intention of education if I'm better off studying on my own when I leave anyway lol.

I spoke to one of my high school teachers a while back and she said when getting her doctorate her group was told that high school isn't for education, it's for producing the general citizenry. College is for learning, high school is for conditioning.

It made a lot of sense at the time and if I have kids I'm never sending them to a public school if the ultimate goal is to make everybody as mediocre as possible.

To be fair, most olympians have a fuckhuge diet comparatively to the average person. You could imagine people that have planet-busting capabilities and can bench mountains (or manifest energy beams unassisted) would require many magnitudes greater. It's actually pretty conservative, the Saiyan diet.
>>

That show is not a healthy kids show. The characters are unrealistic (I know its a cartoon, but the roided out look IA ridiculous) and gives kids the wrong impressions, its gives horribly unrealistic ideas about the humans body and how it works. It just promotes violence and large explosions as a means to solve problems. Plus the artistic style is fucking retarded awful. Dbz is just a Hallmark for poor taste

I was such a fucking loser before I watch Welcome to the NHK. After watching it real changed my life and I started getting out and have been lifting and eating clean for the past year or so.

Seriously watch it if you're some autistic faggot it will probably snap you into shape [spoiler] or depress the shit out of you [/spoiler]

Even if you aren't one the show explores topics like relationships, depression, suicide, and escapism so it's hard not to find something to relate to.

One Pauwnch MAYN

It's a mango about a regular dude normal in every way becoming the strongest dude ever with regular diet and exercise.

An unassuming dude surrounded by the genetically gifted, the roboticlly enhanced, the magically heightened who surpasses them all. Why? Because he isn't doing it for fame, or for fortune, or to prove himself as the strongest in the land. He does it for himself. For the self-satisfaction in setting a goal and beating it. To help others in the process, whether they realise it, appreciate it or despise him for it.

Despite his god like powers, he never EVER lets go of the simple principals. Saitama was the only one who noticed Garou the human monster had never killed. Saitama was the only one who saw Garou for who he was: the little boy angry at the injustice in the world. Saitama was always over joyed at the prospect of cheap good food. He was always thankful, and never struck out in rage or anger.

He claims his power has made him lose his humanity, but in the process, it made him the most human of them all. I'm sorry for the rant, it's just I feel that all these people jumping on the bandwagon now the anime is out are missing the true messages this mango has to offer. I encourage you to go read the ONE (the original creator) version.

That is some mighty overanalyzing there. He's really just made out to be a regular, uncaring dude for the comic effect.

I don't think there's a single page where it would even suggest that he has any depth, apart from the few pages about the time before his "transformation".

>>34928757
I'm going to disagree with you there. Have you read the entirety of the ONE version? Not because "Muh indie cred", just because it's further along in the story line. I agreed with you, up until the conclusion of the Garou the human monster ark.

Perhaps that IS me over analysing, but I think it's a subtext that isn't blatantly flashed in your face, so that the person coming into the story for the funnies can enjoy that part, but a person going into it who's perhaps looking into it a bit more because they're a try hard can also find something the other person didn't.

Other than the Garou conclusion, one of the other parts I got a genuine ... message(?) from was Licence Less Rider's interaction with Satiama, and Satiama's interaction and little speech with that dude who was in Blizzard from hell's hero group. Remember that one chapter? The one with the evil fan? Uh. Um. Yeah. I got some feelings in muh feeling bits. Didn't you?

It's a great show man. Has all the elements of a quality production. You just can't help but watch episode after episode.

The only people that don't like it are the autists on /a/ who think good anime involve little girls doing little girl things. (They're all pedophiles)

if you understand English, German or Japanese you can download them from http://serienjunkies.org/ just buy a premium share-online.biz acc for a month, cause for me all dragon ball series and movies together have about 300gb

but it´s worth the time...
