How can this list not have Fight Together?

This shit brought me to tears.

There’s an OBAMA MANGA?!

WHAT HAS SCIENCE DONE?!

Oh god, can’t unsee.

Konata #19? She is QUEEN OF PETTANKO. It’s a status symbol!

But seriously, maybe it’s because I’ve been watching anime for 15+ years, but when I hear “pettanko” the first thought in my head is Konata from Lucky Star.

Fortunately the problem is self-correcting. The people who are too hung up on tradition will be bred out by the people who aren’t. It’d be a fantastic time to hit the lottery, buy a mansion in Japan, and father a dozen kids or so. A hundred years from now your family could have been the [...]

It must be shit easy to be a cop in Japan. Every time we find out about someone being caught via SanCom they almost always confess, don’t they? “Oh yeah, I totally stole that donkey and hit a kindergartener in the head with a polo mallet. I’m very sorry, and I’ll return the Goofy uniform [...]

No Hughes & No Wolfwood = Shit List IMO

This reminds me of the recent Facebook organ donation thing. I like that companies are using people’s love of toys or mindless social media to actually do some good in the world. Honestly, if they did stuff like this in America… you know? I’d do it. I’ve never donated blood before but I’d have a [...]

In the Playstation 1 era I recall being promised a more “realistic” fighter where you could break bones and damage limbs and the like, so if you wailed on somebody’s left leg they would limp and whatnot. They never delivered, probably because “violence hurts kids” or some shit. ‘Murrica. :(

I’m pretty sure firing someone on “moral grounds” like this is illegal in pretty much every state in the union. Moreover, the teacher’s unions in America make the Italian Mob look like tabby cats. If they don’t beat the school over the head on this one, she certainly will. Amazingly enough, this is actually going [...]

Wait for the inevitable construction of JSDF bases to “defend Japanese territory”. Tactically it’d make sense to put them there, but damn if it won’t piss all of their neighbors off.

I thought the same thing myself, but… in Japan, a man feigning unconsciousness and then trying to get a shred of delicious seifuku fabric by cutting it off of a schoolgirl? That is nowhere near the weirdest thing I’ve heard a pervert do in the country.

This list lacks Cowboy Bebop and Trigun, and therefore the entire thing is fucking bullshit.

Any man who says he didn’t cry like a bitch when Wolfwood died – or worse, when Milly cried – is a flat out fucking liar.

When Wolfwood died I cried like a fucking bitch.

Wow, the Japanese really have like, no capability to lie to an authority figure, do they?

Why didn’t he just say “No, I’m just some other crossdresser.” I’m sure there’s plenty, especially in Japan…

Taking bets on when it will explode.

3:1 odds it kabooms on the launch pad.

5:2 it pulls a Challenger and makes it a couple hundred feet in the air before popping like a bootleg Chinese firework.

76:1 it falls on its side and rocketsleds across the countryside before slamming into a mountain.

Full Metal Panic! needs a fourth season. Kare Kano needs a second. (It only barely covers the first third of the story, and the story as a whole is really good.) Now one that definitely needs a third season (discounting the OVAs) is Genshiken. The manga has been gloriously revived and they haven’t even made [...]

How about Greenpeace and those other animal rights folks go after all of those evil predators who eat animals live out in the wild? I’d love to see them go protest a shark or a pack of wolves. I’m sure it would go well!

Then, this girl captures that look just fine.

Is it me, or does she look sad in every picture she’s in? Even the pictures she’s smiling in…

There are pulldowns, armlocks, and groundfighting that basically aren’t “throws” in the sense of someone flying through the air. The major risk with judo is a bone, joint, etc. landing the wrong way because the person who is being thrown hasn’t trained to break falls properly or just has a fair bit of bad luck. [...]

Is it wrong that I opened this article because I was curious about what sort of weapon she was wielding above all else? :x
