Abyssal Monkey Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 Heavy Object - Knowing that it is by the same author as Magical Index almost certainly relegates the hero to a savior complex, but nonetheless seems somewhat interesting.Bingo! I am too good. This show is playing out almost exactly to my expectations in regards to the characters and structure. I read way too much Index. Quote
Jun Inoue Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 Heavy Object - Knowing that it is by the same author as Magical Index almost certainly relegates the hero to a savior complex, but nonetheless seems somewhat interesting.Bingo! I am too good. This show is playing out almost exactly to my expectations in regards to the characters and structure. I read way too much Index.Well, I mean. Welcome to the standard action anime?Still, same here. The second episode has left me the exact same feelings as the first one. Interesting plot with possibility of a good execution, characters overall likeable except for 1 retarded random scene (in the first episode, the MC decides he'd rather let the princess die than to maybe accidentally touch her boobs while freeing her, while already having her okay, and in the second they are in a live/death situation, heroine falls on top of him -I mean ofc, where if not on top of the MC-, and his immediate reaction is "I knew it, she has decent boobs, hurray").

kooolm Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 Sakurako-san and One Punch Man look very promising. Also, I think Asterisk is fun to watch. Still not sure about other shows yet...You should watch Rakudai Kishi no Cavalry. It's very similar to Asterisk, but the MC is funnier.I've seen it, but I still like Asterisk more. Quote
Abyssal Monkey Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 (edited) Woah woah woah. What the hell... Asterisk and Knights are turning into mimics of each other. I literally paused at around 2:15 in Magic Knights in the opening to make this post. Are both the theme songs REALLY about a brand new world? GodDamnIt Edit: further on Magic Knights: Wowwwww, I completely forgot how proactive Stella is in this series as to the reverse Also, I wasn't mistaken, that ending theme is performed by the same people who did Katanagatari.

Nosebleed Posted October 10, 2015 Author Posted October 10, 2015 Oh man, Owarimonogatari gets me on the edge of my seat every time.Sodachi vs Senjougahara was 10/10Everything about this plot is riddled in mystery, but the way the story handles said mystery is, in my opinion, greater than the mystery itself.As for Sodachi herself, hard to say what I feel but I'm mostly just curious about her reasoning.In terms of personality, even after the stuff she said to Araragi, I don't particularly dislike her, maybe because I sense there's something more there than just pure hatred.Opening theme was trippy as hell.Head tilts were strong in this episode as well.

Ceris Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 Gochuumon wa Usagi desu ka S2 aired, it's finally back Pure amazingness, just like S1 Quote
Jibril Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 Sodachi uses slap. Senjougahara received 15 damage!Senjougahara uses punch. It's a critical hit! Sodachi received 1479 damage! Sodachi fainted!10/10 best monogatari. Meanwhile GochiUsa returned and blows this season as best anime. Just because. Quote
Jun Inoue Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 (edited) Hory shito, Haikyuu!! actually introduced a new character this season that's really fun to watch. This new first year manager is gonna be a riot.Also, banzai for cuteness in Asterisk. Edited October 11, 2015 by Jun Inoue Quote
Nosebleed Posted October 12, 2015 Author Posted October 12, 2015 Today I couldn't get any sleep after waking up at 4AM. When it was time to catch a bus to go to college, it started pouring like there was no tomorrow. During the bus ride, the highway my bus uses was pretty much jamed the entire way because of traffic accidents which made the typical 40 min college trip into a lengthy 1+ hour trip. After classes were over, I then got more rain as I headed back home. Because I was soaking wet, I decided to take a shower as soon as I got home. Little did I know I had run out of underwear to wear and the weather wasn't clear so I couldn't hang any up to dry either so I just had to spend the rest of the day with no underwear. Overall, it's been a pretty annoying Monday, one of those that people make memes about, but then at 8PM Yuru Yuri came on, which made me realise that even though I went through all this shit, in the end I can at least get cute grills being cute with each other, and there is no better reward than that.

Nosebleed Posted October 13, 2015 Author Posted October 13, 2015 Okay, no. Just no. This is not how you do proper push-ups. My PE teacher kicked me around for doing push-ups like this.This shit doesn't help you build any muscle at all, it just puts an insane amount of pressure on your forearms for no real reason.Proper push-ups are done with your arms aligned with your torso so you can have a natural posture and evenly distribute your body weight.Also, getting tired from just one set of 10 push ups and 10 sit ups, r u srs? Even Hinako counted up to 100. What a fucking worthless pleb.And last but not least, there were no idols in this!Anitore-ex confirmed hitler.0/10 would rather watch Hinako sleep again.

Darklord Rooke Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 (edited) Proper push-ups are done with your arms aligned with your torso so you can have a natural posture and evenly distribute your body weight.One of the hallmarks of a military push-up. Military push-ups have your elbows against your side, and your feet close together, this builds muscle much more effectively. Standard push-ups have the elbows flailing around (although I haven't seen a person do it at right angles before 0.0,) and feet opened wide up. Looks like she's got her feet in a good position.

Decay Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 My gym teacher told us to have our arms at right angles and feet together. Kind of like a bench press against the ground. I didn't realize there was a better way. *shrug* Quote
Nosebleed Posted October 13, 2015 Author Posted October 13, 2015 Keep in mind I'm not saying the "arms open wide" method is 100% ineffective (obviously my entire post was just a huge hyperbole), but it is definitely not the best way to do push-ups because it mostly just targets your pectoral muscles which is not really something most people want to do when they want to do push ups.What most people want is to build muscle on their arms (biceps, triceps, etc.), and for that, the military method is the best method available.If you've been doing the right angle method your whole life, you'll quickly realise how much more of a workout the other method is, that's pretty much the indicator of how the right angle method doesn't buff your arms up very much.I have been told to place my arms at right angles in like 10th grade, but my PE teacher for the following years as well as a couple of soldiers made sure I never used that method again lol.I honestly don't know what I expected from a 4 min anime where a moe girl talks to a camera as if the viewer was physically there and then proceeds to do a measly 10 push ups and sit ups as if she had just ran a marathon.

They lied Five girls aiming to become idols will exercise with you, and that troubling body fat percentage will go down by 1000%...!? Quote

The Striker Posted October 14, 2015 Posted October 14, 2015 well... thanks for the information . Quote
CeruleanGamer Posted October 14, 2015 Posted October 14, 2015 (edited) I learned more from this thread about doing a proper pushup than my fat ass gym teacher back in grade school.Also the way people view fat nowadays is like cancer. You need fat and it's not something you should eradicate completely. Also most guys prefer when their girls can put a bit of plump too. Edited October 14, 2015 by CeruleanGamer Quote
Jun Inoue Posted October 14, 2015 Posted October 14, 2015 (edited) Sorry that I like my waifus thin~~~~A thin person wouldn't obsess itself with "that troubling fat percentage". It's a horribly clichéd and boring idea that they keep throwing into anime when it comes to young girls. It's horribly distasteful. Edited October 14, 2015 by Jun Inoue Quote
