yes to train with a katana you need to master the "perfect cut" this requires a lot of muscle control especially in the back butt and triceps, you tone and build these muscle groups by swinging at the air repeatedly like reps in weightlifting, it builds tone and muscle control. the katana is super finicky and brittle if you "cut wrong" you can shatter a katana, million folds be damned.

No I very specifically liked the game in that episode. Jibril just brought it more to life with her cuteness. The entire episode was worlds above the rest of the show, the writing even felt deeper with every word of Shiritori (after a certain point) being part of their conversation as well.

I agree.

It also felt more like the MC was actively working towards the end instead of just asspulls nonstop like the other games.

From the opening bomb, to everything he did to cripple Jibril, and you could even see him casually removing the sections of the Earth.

It actually felt like he was pulling repeated genius moves instead of insanity like "lol your King commits suicide for no reason" or "I'm going to erase the concept of my own existance while hoping my autistic sister can fix my fuckups and bring me back"

The quality of the episode was so massively ahead of the rest of the series (barring the Great War arc, that was the shit) that the anime twist of introducing the Old Deus early was a bit boring in comparison.

This happens every time art becomes a copy of a copy of a copy.
But usually common sense and reality kick in at some stage and creators realize they have strayed too far from the reality they were supposed to be representing.

Katanas are frail weapons that shatter if too much force is put on them, so the preferred method of swinging one was to "cast" it in a smooth motion. Swinging it in the air was a legitimate training method for this because technique and speed was more important than strength and you weren't likely to break your weapon every time you fucked up.

It's not about realism, Anon.
Giant robots aren't realistic. That's one thing and it's okay. But then there's copying the copies of copies until everybody forgets they were robots because they were supposed to do cool robot stuff, not do the exact same thing a person does except with a polished metal exterior.

Then you get fanservice. Yes, okay, sudden gusts of wind that let you see all of the girls' pantsu aren't realistic and it's okay. But then the market starts copying the copies of copies and we get panchira before the opening of the first episode (see Bake episode 1 for a deliberate example of this) and nothing else for a whole cours. You could ask the producers if they forgot that the idea was to have panchira as an extra to the main content, not to have the whole show be pantsu from start to finish with the exact same jokes as the one before it.

This actually makes sense especially if you're a power house character in a shonen like Goku or something.

That's not really true. Goku fought the way he did because of his Saiyan instincts and a genuine love of fighting. On the other hand, Saitama does go full-power every fight and he's bored out of his mind all the time.

>>141410153
This can be bad but you have to look at it from the show's logical perspective. Most characters don't want their secret techniques and shit to be known to too many people so they try not to use them if they can avoid it, for example.

Please don't spread misinformation about how genes function. There's no such thing as a gene that is inferior or superior.

Lactose intolerance is actually the ancestral state for most mammals. Humans have evolved a retention of the enzyme lactase that in other mammals is no longer produced once they are weaned from the mother. Some humans with lactose intolerance lack this enzyme and are actually the "default" human in that regard.

lifting weights allows you to accurately measure progress. Better for linear progression and different exercises allow for different RM's hit different muscles like compound movements.
I guess pushing boulders would be good for a cardio and overall body, but you can do a lot better with weights.

Kanamemo OP
Momo Kyun Sword OP
Alright! Heartcatch Precure OP
Majimoji Rurumo OP
Valkyrie Drive OP

That's just to name a few of them. The guitar solo is the ultimate filler for full sized versions of these songs and some songs go as far as to stick one in even if a guitar has never even been used for the duration of the song prior.

You can probably spot a few songs that does this shit right fucking now in this very season. Are you retarded?
>>
>>141410903
Because it doesn't ever add anything, and is just a way to add filler. We don't need the characters to meet beforehand, that's stupid. It's fine for series where it MATTERS, like in Madoka, but 99% of the time it's just a joke, like "haha, he said something silly or rude to them and now he's embarassed because they're his new classmate!

This one's just a stupid thing to complain about. If the characters couldn't understand each other, the story couldn't exist. It's like how in Cowboy Bebop's original dub everyone spoke Japanese, but none of the characters themselves can speak Japanese in-story. That's not a plothole, it's just a fucking translation so the viewer can understand the show. Don't pretend for a second that every show with a magic world would be better if all the characters spoke gibberish and you had to use subtitles to understand everything, without even getting to hear some words you know. That's what you're asking for, and it's retarded. The only way to do it well is to do it the way "The Devil is a Part Timer" did it, where you have a fake language but pretty much drop it completely after the first few scenes.

Maybe but it's not a recent phenomenon, certainly not as recent as anon seems to be suggesting. Jimi Hendrix version of the Star Spangled Banner with an electric guitar is old enough that grandparents heard it.

It's not uncommon for new versions and mixes of a song to be made, how about the 26 mixes of Fly Me To The Moon for Eva? Or the half dozen mixes of Lights with Ellie Goulding?

If done well, you don't need the MC to be the "chosen one" or the strongest character. Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu is the PERFECT example, our MC is a basic dude and Haruhi is literally fucking god. You don't need the MC to be the chosen one.

Mirai Nikki/Future Diary gave us a wimpy loser MC, and Yuno is the "chosen one". Madoka follows a plain-ass girl instead of the "Chosen One" who got super OP and manipulated time over and over again, and ended up becoming "Basically Satan".

Pretty much.
A lot of anime is just full of cliches, attempts at being "deep," author & mangaka self inserting, and harems they wished they had.

Most anime is a basic plot with a twist and it's own characters. You got your basic relatable Japanese highschool student has something weird or unexpected happen that leads to an unforeseen turn of events and a potential romance. Just flesh it out, you can make it anything from Shakugan no Shana to Kimagure Orange Road.

>>all the girls love the MC because he's le nice guy

You know it's not even that HE'S A NICE GUY. I could accept that, I can. It's that their definition of NICE usually boils down to BASIC MANNERS AND CONSIDERATION.

>this guy didn't rape me on the spot he's so different.

>Saitama does go full-power every fight
no, he literally just taps everyone lightly and they explode.
The entire "conflict" of OPM is that Saitama is so strong that his minimum is magnitudes higher than anyone else's

While Im certainly glad to see the hero actually work to improve why do the villains never train?

Bumbling male protagonist somehow trips/falls/slips/whatever in a way that makes him grope or end up face first in a female character's ladybits or boobs.

Tropes revolving around boobs in general that are played for fanservice rather than laughs, especially huge breast jiggles for tiny movements.

I probably have a laundry list of tropes I hate just they're not all coming to me right now.

>serious scene
>Panties still in clear focus of the camera

I enjoy fan service, but there are times when you may have to reign it in

bitches doing this pose reinforcing the sexist stereotype that women are weak and helpless and can only pray to resolve problem

It is absurd that this shitty thread still hasn't been deleted.
/v/shitters need to fuck off with their unfunny, low-quality garbage threads.
