Getting Better At Fighting Games Part 1

"99.9% of people cannot keep winning. That while many people can win, few have, and even fewer understand what it takes to be winners."
- Daigo Umehara

(The Will Power To Keep Winning)

Practice Love Dedication

Practice is one of the most generic and most common things to say but also one of the most powerful. I was once told by a rival of mine that "It's not how long you practice it's how you practice" Instead of just grinding meaningless games all day long you should evaluate yourself and learn from your mistakes . Research about other Character, watch pros and see what they do that way you gain knowledge and will improve way faster than just grinding.


Love for the game is the ultimate tool you will need too motivate you to improve. I mean you have too love what you do in order to succeed. If you don't love this game why are you playing it ?

Winning requires losing I mean if you get upset with one lost than this game is most likely not for you . It takes dedication and effort for the results that you want.

Which Anime Will Become The Ruler?



With the Naruto manga being completed and the anime almost done ( Stupid fillers) the only remaining anime once everything is wrapped up from Naruto  would be One Piece. The big 3 being One Piece , Naruto and Bleach have been ruling the anime charts with a iron fist, reigning more supreme than other Anime out there. Many could not imagine them being replaced but the time is almost here. I truly believe One piece is on the verge of ending even though i don't watch it the anime has been going on for more than a decade, so the chances are pretty high.


So what will happen in the future? Well new shows will rise up and came the spot. Gintama and One Punch man would be top contenders as long as they're able to last till the  popular top Animes end . Though it's highly unlikely they would reign as long as the previous rulers.


Also Shonen Anime have been to be expected at the top given the track record of them.

It really sucks to see a lot of theses Anime say goodbye!  But that's just the way things are. Good side is you can always go back and re watch them!

Does Interest In Anime Decrease With Age?






Unless you find the fountain of youth we all unfortunately will age. Though many responsibility will enter our lives and the more we think the more we change little by little . However will this change effect how we perceive things? 

Sort of! more often than not, the things you were passionate for will naturally won't be as exciting or interesting as you first started. Age itself does not contribute entirely to this, rather it's about what how long ago you started. A 50 year old man who recently discovered Anime and is super passionate about it. Compared to a young 25 year old man who been watching for 24 years of his life, so naturally it won't be nearly as invigorating as to the 50 year old. 

In today's society  Animation is generally not watch by adult, it's more towards the young and that's because of the target audience that Anime is target towards. If Anime was redirected at older adults with new content that more suited them, than the shift in balance would change. More young people would stop being interested in it.  


Age will always be numbers if you really think about it. Old people could people could be interested in things that would be considered for young people. Young people could also be interested in things considered for old people. It really doesn't matter,  whatever you find interesting just go for it!

Why New Anime And Manga Struggle To Gain Viewer Ship


Anime/Manga come and go, though many have been publicized, few stay and fewer don't even make it past the 10 episode mark. So what makes a Anime become stable and be able to grow?


Viewership is important for any form entertainment, however creating a community around it is equally if not more important. Views sound easy to obtain, but actually are really difficult and the reason behind that is many do not have a impactful first impression to them. For example when you're looking for a new show to watch and you stumble upon an anime like Bleach your first thoughts would be "What kind of Anime name is Bleach?" which is a great hook to further the readers interest. Next is description. You read that it's about Shinigami and the afterlife, which will peak their curiosity so they begin to watch the series. Another example would be One Punch Man, the first sentence got me hooked already. " Man finishes fights with One Punch!" doesn't that sounds super awesome to watch?


Many new shows don't have this to drive people in. I mean i seen many shows with titles that sounds alright but don't scream " WATCH ME".  The description to them is lackluster as well, sometimes it sounds like something I read a thousand times. I firmly believe if they were to somehow change theses things, much more people would add it to their watch list.


Gaining views doesn't necessary mean a added following automatically. However the chances increase with more views. I can start watching a Anime and never watch it again after the first episode if it didn't match my expectations from the description. Having good content is what makes them stay. So content that synergies with the description is key as well.    


Well that wraps up this topic

So what do you guys think?

3 Quick Ways To Improve Your Watching Experience.







Whether you're watching Anime or a TV show online it's important that you get 100% satisfaction from it, Time is a essential thing that we have, it must not be wasted half enjoying something. So before you start watching, make sure your 100% comfortable, that will be your number one priority!

If you wanna take your watching experience to the next level here is what I recommend.


Buffer Your Videos
Having the video pause constantly can be a really pain in the butt and can easily ruin the moment, exceptionally when it gets to the climax. Before watching your show just press play and pause right away and leave it for at least a good 10 minutes before resuming. This way you'll never have those "video clumps" every 10 seconds. This method is really useful if you have slow internet.


Food and Refreshments
What's better than watching your favorite shows? Watching them with your favorite snacks!
Entertainment and food go hand and hand, similar to how Oreo go with milk.  Chips and soda are the classic combination, but chocolate and cookies can act like a substitute. Popcorn would be all season snack to eat as well. I highly suggest you don't eat dinner foods such as pasta or rice, it just doesn't feel right.

Priorities First
Finish your homework or chores before even considering starting an episode. You'll subconsciously keep worrying about doing those things while watching the show. Also if it's close to dinner time with your family don't even bother, talking your way out of dinner to finish an episode is a futile battle.


Family and Friends
Everything is just more enjoyable when you have company. You'll be able to have live discussion and be able to see how others experience the show. A really great way also to strengthen any relationship! Its hitting 2 Wii sports targets with 1 stone! (Didn't wanna say bird, gotta protect them)


Additional things you can do

  • Fix the lighting in the room
  • Use noise canceling headphones when your house is noisy
  • Trying different ways of watching it such as smart phones, laptops, TV


Well thats pretty much wraps up this article.

How do you guys enjoy your shows?

Will Anime Die Out In The West In 50 Years?








It's no secret that Anime has grown in popularity over the last decade. When anime was first broadcast in western society in the late 90's it sparked a new interest in people and formed new communities.

Anime with it's unique style had taken the world by storm and remain so through out the early 2000s. I like to refer to this era as the golden age of Anime. Jumping to present day Anime is still very strong and active. Although Anime doesn't have the support it once had from western television broadcasters, the community kept on building.

One topic that rarely discussed is the future of Anime as a whole. As the years roll by, will Anime remain intact in western society ? This one is a hard question but ill try to answer it.

First we gotta discuss Anime distribution, since we have no longer a viable outlet to watch Anime on mainstream television, One solution to this is that we buy DVD's from companies that import and dub Anime such as Funimation.

Next is online streaming, Crunchy Roll , Hulu and Netflix are the top when it comes to licensed streaming. Arguably the best method of watching anime such it's great quality and offer Anime professionally subbed but comes at a reasonable price cost.

Lastly is third party streaming which a lot of people get their Anime fix from. Third party meaning that the company does not in fact have any ties with the company that is in charge of the Anime series and usually don't have the rights to publish their work.

Now if say Funimation stopped importing dubbed/subbing Anime, a huge asset would be lost, but wouldn't be the end of the world. If people that used third party streams outweigh the people who use licensed streams such as Crunchy roll, then yeah there would be problems because their service would go bankrupted. Since this is are primary source of linkage to  Japanese Anime everything would start to break apart. Many are picky and don't like using third party streams and i say majority of people are in favor and do use Crunchy Roll and the other licensed streams . So if it were gone I think many would just stop watching instead using third party streams.

So it's important to support sites such as Crunchy roll because it also supports the artist which brings us more Anime.

Now comes content.

Every year dozens of anime is produced and released. I say for every 10 anime 1 popular that draws in new attention. Creating Content is getting really hard nowadays also, since a significant amount of ideas are already used. So people may say " This seems like that other Anime I just watched" and eventually just stop cause they think nothing new is coming out. As long as people find a few that are right for them i doubt they would stop watching.


Now i wanna end this article with me saying i am a fan of Anime I would love to see Anime thrive and go as far as it can!  As long as people watch and share, Anime will never die! But you gotta keep in mind, like the old saying goes "Everything has a beginning and a end".











What Genre Of Anime Says About You.






In the beginning when I started watching Anime I watched whatever was on TV. Dragonball, Naruto, Bleach were all at the forefront of Anime. So naturally i leaned towards the side of the adventure and action genre. As i grew older I discovered that there were more styles of Anime out there and not just action packed ones like i previous thought. There were lots of genres that suited everyone. I tried watching all sorts of genres from slice of life to romance. However Adventure and Action suited me best. But can you really dictates someone's habits and personality from what genre they watch?

Here are my a few of my thoughts.


Action And Adventure

  • You love the thrill and adrenaline of high pace events. 
  • Competitiveness is a driving force inside you. 
  • When things get rough you don't runaway you stand and face it
  • You aren't scared of the unknown.
  • You go to the gym
  • You fight for your friends
  • Never gives up.
  • Reliable, strong hearted person.

Slice Of Life


  • Day dreaming is a natural habit of yours.
  • Creativity is one of your strong attributes
  • Always curious about everything.
  • You hang out with friends a lot.
  • You sit by the window in school.
  • Reading is a hobby of yours.
  • A really optimistic person, nothing can bring your mode down.
  • Cheerful and Curious person.

Romance

  • You love making relationships.
  • You have a lot of friends of the opposite sex.
  • Flirty and courageous
  • Wants to find true love.
  • You love dress fresh. 
  • You wanna get out of the friend zone.
  • Outgoing and knows what you want.


Hopefully i got some of this right!

The Madara Uchiha Paradox Theory ,Moon Eye Plan Resurrection? (CONTAINS SPOILERS)








If your up to date with the Naruto manga, then you have already witness the "death" of the legendary Madara Uchiha In chapter 691.

Isn't that funny? Haven't we seen a similar situation before? like the Hashirama vs Madara fight? In that fight we clearly see Madara die as well but luckily for him he managed to cheat death with the Uchiha forbidden Jutsu known as Izanagi.

So it can be safe to assume that he may have used Izanagi before his death again and still be alive in hiding, plotting the second coming of the infinite Tsukuyomi. I mean the guy said with his dying words that Harshirama way of doing things were probably the right way to do things. However he did the exact same thing when the leaf village was formed. He came to a agreement and then suddenly turns a blind eye and goes rogue.

I wouldn't even be surprised if hes a returning villain in the Boruto series.

So what do you guys think

I'm I crazy or do you think this is a possibility?

Can Watching Sports And Fighting Anime Help Improve Your Fitness?




Like many of all us sports Animes are always awesome too watch. Adrenaline, anxiety and victory are all feelings we feel in all sections of Animes. However the competitive sports genre are the ones that really hit the feelings hard the most. The characters slowly in the show become a part of us, whenever the character loses, we lose, whenever the character wins, we win. The progression and struggle of the characters fuels us and we are delighted to watch their journey with wide opens eyes.

Fitness is a common label whenever a sports anime is mentioned. Rigorous training in order to improve their physical physique to the pinnacle of perfection is a general requirement for all athletes, Whether it be in the show or real life.

Now how can you use this to help improve yourself ? First obviously watching sports anime itself won't get your fitness level up. Though we can take many things that inspire us from the Anime and use that for a power source,

Motivation

Often times we see a character that we can relate to. For me it's the underdog, the character that no ones expects great things from. Everyone thinks this guys is a completely joke that won't become anything. All of a sudden..... BAM! That person rises to the top like a superstar.  It was through hard work and perseverance that he was able to see his goal come true. Naruto would be a great example of such a character.  I don't know about you people but i get a surge of energy whenever the underdog proves people wrong.


Confidence 
It's really hard to take the first step into anything. Though people might look and think differently of you. It's important to remind yourself  why you started the thing your doing in the first place and find solace within yourself. Hajime No Ippo is a great display of that.


Community

The most important point of all.is that sports Animes tell you that you're not alone! No matter if your struggling or making great progress, there are people in the exact situation. If these Anime's taught me anything, its that doing it alone is never good. Try to find people you can communicate with and journey on together! Cause people that train together gain together,


So that ends my topic!

Has sports or fighting Animes Inspire you somehow?

Can You Really Be On Saitama's Level? And The Person Closest To One Punch Man.







If you're reading this i am assuming you already watch the acclaimed One Punch Man Anime series, if not go and watch it then come back!

Saitama is a beast without a doubt. beating people with one punch must be a awesome skill to have. But is it possible for us to obtain such physical prowess?  Short answer is ......

KINDA OF...

I hate to say it but at the end of the day reality sink in and tells us "nope you stay mortal!" Don't worry i didn't get your hopes up for no reason. Many of the things in the anime can be found in real life. Saitama's intense training regime which consist of 100 push ups, sit ups , squats and 10km run for 3 straight years caused him to go bald. 2 factors contribute to the baldness, stress and over exhaustion.
It's pretty common in the real world when you get very stressed out and OVERLY work your body without rest you see drastic changes.

So the baldness you can obtain through intense training or you can simply shave your head.

Next is the One Punch.

Human history has recorded one man that was able to inflict so much damage and pain that any opponent rib cage would be in serious pain or even break. That person is no other than the legendary martial artist BRUCE LEE!

Bruce Lee's One inch punch was so dangerously powerful it made the man he was demonstrating on fly backwards! I believe this was the closest to Saitama's "one punch" there is in real life.

In conclusion yes you can be similar to Saitama but mostly in raw power. Speed and being able to take a hit from the monster that can destroy universes i highly doubt it. Chances if you obtaining such godlike speed and tenacity are the same as Brock getting out of the friend zone.

Overall the main goal is finish people in one punch and get a bald head!

So don't just stand there, go and train!

Also, If you hadn't seen Bruce Lee's One inch punch here it is.

Will Brock Every Get Out Of The Friend Zone?






Pokemon has always been a staple anime that link western society to Japanese culture. I say this for the fact that it pass the test of time, Not only did Pokemon remain popular for more that a decade but it the only one that remain relevant on western television channels to this day.

Ash being the main character, we were able to see this young man's journey through varies regions, along with his never aging body. We all know through out the decade that Ash has problems winning whichever Pokemon league he enters. However there is one problem more significant than all of Ash's problems, that is overlooked by many and has been a problem every since the character Brock was introduce. Will Brock every get out of the friend zone?

Brock is a womanizer and is on a eternal conquest of love. Though whatever location he may be and whatever awesome pickup lines he uses, Brock never gets any slack.  Rejected day by day Brock never gives up! For that I have to admire his tenacity. Brock most likely will reach his goal towards the end of the series. ( But god knows when that would end) and even then there are no guarantees

I mean instead of  the movie Pokemon 4Ever, we should have a movie dedicated to Brock called
FriendZone 4Ever.

With that said, lets us all have a moment of silence for the man who most likely will be stuck in there for all of eternity ,

Was Kakashi Teaching Chidori To Sasuke A Huge Mistake?



Kakashi is without question one of most bad ass characters within the Naruto World. Arguably Konoha's best overall ninja, Kakashi has proven himself  time and time again as a resource and powerful man, through the successful difficult mission he has competed over the years. Kakashi's ability to copy Ninjutsu from others gave him the trademark of  "Copy cat ninja" or " The man who copied over 1000 Justu" Despite his huge arsenal of copy Ninjutsu, Kakashi has one signature move that he developed himself.  

Chidori, translated means 1000 birds, is a lighting based jab is considered if not the highest level of Chakra concentration.  Kakashi eventually teaches this to one of his disciples Sasuke, a ninja that will eventually turn rogue. Now i always wondered how well would Sasuke would fair in the series without Chidori.


Naruto (Part 1)

We first see Sasuke use the Chidori during the Chunin exam against Gaara. However once they had the rematch in the forest where Gaara was in his initial Jinchuuriki state, no other Jutsu Sasuke used besides Chdori would have been effective. Sasuke still got wrecked but would have gotten wrecked even worse without it.

Naruto Vs Sasuke in the Valley Of The End.  Naruto would mostly likely have  won due to having a powerful move the Rasengan. So having Chidori may have played a part in his win.


Naruto Shippuden (Part 2)

Sasuke's reintroduction into the series started with a bang. We were able see him use his new innovative variations of Chidori, such as Chidori Stream and Chidori Senbon. Sasuke  also developed new ways of adding Chidori into his fighting style.

Sasuke vs Deidara is where Chidori shined the most for Sasuke. Dedeira being a earth style bomb user had Sasuke cornered with clay bombs and was able to inject many micro bomb filaments into his body. THE ONLY REASON WHY HE SURVIVED SUCH  DANGERS WAS THANKS TO CHIDORI! Sasuke discovered early on in the battle that his bombs could be defused with lighting based moves. So every time Deidara would attach a bomb onto Sasuke, Sasuke would just use Chidori stream and nullify it all.

So many if he hadn't learned Chidori he would have been a died man.  

For the rest of Shippuden, Chidori gets overthrown with overpowered moves such as Susanno and Amaterasu. Though he still uses it fairly often.


Conclusion

I personally believe Sasuke would have done satisfactory even if he he hadn't learned Chidori. Sasuke fights would have been more difficult without a doubt and probably had to work much harder for the victories. The only thing that bugs me is that Kakashi probably gets a bad rep for teaching a killer
a killer move (No Pun Intended)


What do you all think? Should Kakashi have never taught Chidori to Sasuke?

These Instant Noodles Is a must know for Anime Lovers! They Will Make Die Out Of Goodness And Reanimate You Back.





Over the span of 2 decades I have had the privilege of eating varies types of food from all over the world! (Most from imports though but thats not the points!. Today I am going with a different route that is more accessible at a location near you, You guessed it didn't you! YEP INSTANT NOODLES.

First invented by the Taiwanese Japanese Momofuku Ando instant noodles have been around since the late 1950's. Due to their easy to make nature and reasonable pricing their popularity skyrocketed and can be found internationally anywhere. Competition and rivalry between noodle companies are fierce new products come and go on a annual basis  Luckily I had tried many brands and would recommend the following 3.










Mi Goreng Fried Noodles

Taste: 5/5
Price: 35 cents/Package
Preparation: 4/5

Mildly spicy and flavorful this noodle brand is a generic clone of a common Indonesian dish. Do not let the image fool you although the pictures shows a lot of veggies and other condiments in reality the flavoring comes from two packages. One of the packing is liquid which includes soy sauce, chill sauce and oil. The other packaging is powder flavoring which I do not know what it contains.
Preparations are simple but messy , boil the noodles for 3 minutes and place both flavorings in a bowl. Once noodles are complete drain out the water until dried and mix with flavoring and enjoy! 
The mess it creates gladly makes up for it in taste.

Highly recommend but do not eat a lot it has really high fat content.















NongShim Kimchi Bowl Noodles

Taste: 4/5
Price; 60-90 Cents/Bowl
Preparation: 2/5

NongShim brings the delicious flavor of noodle and kimchi together in this jam packed bowl.
Really hot and spicy not recommend for people who can't handle the heat. Dried veggies and soup base are included just add bowling water wait 3 minutes and enjoy! No mess to clean.

Tip: Try eating it on a cold day the heat will warm you right up! 
















Nissin Instant Noodles

Taste: 4/5
Price: 75 cents- $1/ Pack
Preparation: 4/5

A classic also the grandfather of all instant noodles. Out of all the instant noodle brands this right here has the most authentic ramen feel. Not only the history make it a must eat but also they have the most flavor available. Flavors include  chicken, beef, shrimp and many more that you can think of.



Haven't ever tried instant noodles? Give this one a try!

Weebos, The Next Stage Of Anime Otaku Evolution?







Today was an very interesting day, I figured today why not let others decide what they wanna read. So i posted on the community pages and a few replied back. One in particular wanted me too write about Weeaboo. That word did not compute to me, i have never ever heard of that word in my life. Determined i decided to see this to the end and did some research.

Thanks to a number of sources * Cough Urban Dictionary Cough*  I am able to put define Weeaboo in a short words.

Weeaboo

Originated from the word  Wapanese used to describe foreign individuals who have adopted and swear by the code of Japanese culture. Learning the Japanese language, following trends such as hairstyles/clothing, calling your parents ka-chan  and Oto-san are a just a couple of ones i could name on the top of my head. Many are self proclaimed and never even been to Japan

So how does one become a Weeaboo? Well for a good amount of people Anime seem like a gateway to this "lifestyle" Slice of life Animes can be the many suspect because of its large viewing of how modern Japanese culture is traditionally portrayed.

Now don't confuse Weeaboo with Otaku although they share some similarities they are the same.

Otaku

A Japanese term for people with obsessive interest. Anime and Manga are the most common entities linked to the word because of it's popularity in Japan. Many people don't realize that anything you do can be Otaku based. Such as gaming Otaku, fishing Otaku  and bird watching otaku. Otaku isn't just tied down to just Anime and Manga, though chances are when you proclaim yourself as a Otaku you're a anime loving person. One becomes a Otaku when your passion for whatever your interest is becomes a lifestyle. 


Difference 

Now what is the difference you may ask? Are the not just both with obsessive interest ?
No young grasshopper there are some key difference that set them apart! 

Weeaboos love everything about Japan, while most Otakus just love in thing in particular. 

Weeaboos act like they live in Japan, Otakus on the other hand can love anime but still act western. 

Weeboos may celebrate Japanese holidays and seasonal rituals such as cheery blossom festivals, while not in actually in japan!.  

Otakus they cosplay to show there support for there favorite shows and characters which is most likely once or twice a year.   


Conclusion

I can go on and on but that should give you clue to my knowledge about Weeaboos
As you can tell the transition from a Anime/manga loving Otaku to a Weeaboo doesn't seem that far and you can jump from one end of the secptrum to the next in a flash. 

Well that ends my topic

Did i get the thing right or I am completely wrong

Watching Every Anime Known On Earth, Is it possible?




A long time ago while having a chat with a friend of mine I asked him how much anime he was currently watching. I remember him giving me a a number that was somewhere the around the 10's.
Stunned i joking ask him if he was planning on watching every since anime series known to man.
He responded with "Nah thats to hard" and i thought about it for a bit. Is it possible to watch every anime that is out there? Well here is what i found out.

First we gotta calculate the total time we have. Lets say you were able to watch 24 hours a day straight. No bathroom breaks, no need to eat or drink and no distractions. Since every anime episode excluding commercials and such are around 20 mins averaged out. That means each hour would contain 3 episode each. Multiplying our total anime watched per hour by our daily time gives us a total of a whooping 72 episodes per day! That's means in a month you'll total 2,160 and in a year you get a grand total of 26,280! Which is enough for one person to finish it all in their natural lifespan.

 Also someone please tell me my math is wrong because i can't even believe those numbers.

So.
1 Day : 72 Episodes
1 Week: 504
1 Month: 2,160
1 Year: 26,280

Currently this whole statement unfortunately is only possible in a utopia world. If we jump back into reality there are numerous reasons why this most unlikely won't work.  First is our priorities meaning our job, gym, school, relationships etc... these already take up more than half the time and make us exhausted sometimes. Even if you plan to become a anime hermit and manage to get donations from kind individuals, you''ll most likely stop of boredom. Not every anime will be to your cup of tea, that is a fact.

This may sound like a dream for some to watch as much anime as possible and don't get me wrong I love and support anime! but even if you have a fierce passion for anime i can't see it working because we are human and its hard, because we seek other thing as well. 



Well that wraps up this topic

What do you peeps think?

Do you think its possible?



Does Fan Sevice Make or Break An Anime?

Anime sure has changed in SIZE over the years, not just the community or the volume of the great anime that is currently being made. Rather the physical "traits" of characters. Fan service for those who don't know is a intentional act of  adding extra or enhancing fictional material to please the fans.

Fan service can really range from anything from character relationships, materialistic objects, battles etc.....   The most common forms of fan services that you see in our present day would be the excessive tone on the physical body. Males with ripped bodies, females with huge chest  are not a similar trait among many new animes.

Personally I don't mind it but when i'm watching in my in room at home with the whole family being present, that changes the ball game. You wouldn't believe how much bad luck i have! There has been many times when i'm watching a show and all of a sudden a "graphic" scene happens and one of my parents just so happens to walk by my room and saw the screen.

Now my parents could be thinking a few things.

1. OMG Hes watching the no no stuff
2. OMG Hes watching the no no stuff
3. OMG Hes watching the no no stuff

I had to explain to my parents that  its a show and every thing was alright but got kinda awkward every time that happens.



Well that ends this topic for me

What do you peeps think, do you believe they should keep the fan service going or reduce the amount of it?

Anime Love Triangles And Why It Sucks To Be The Best Friend.







Whether you're more of a Shoujo or Shonen watcher you'll always come across a character in the series that end up falling for a certain person and you end up getting butterfly feels in the stomach . However only to your hope crushed when the person they fell for likes another!!!!

Although some shows portray this more obvious then others depending what genre is the series geared towards too.

Now i want to point your attention to slice of life/romance anime. Most but not all are located in a high school which is not a bad thing, but i always wondered why not a place like a coffee shop? Anyways i'm getting side tracked. These type of anime usually revolve around 3-4 Characters
Male/Female Protagonist, Second Male/Female Protagonist and two best friends that accompany each protagonist. Now i present to you a written visual of a timeline of theses animes.


SHORT TIMELINE OF HIGHSCHOOL ROMANCE ANIMES ( SORT OF...)

Protagonist 2 Likes Protagonist 1 

Protagonist 2 best friend helps gain info by befriending Protagonist 1

Protagonist 1 best friend stops and says "WOAH BACK OFF" to slow down Protagonist 2 best friends progress

Eventually they all hang out together and do some school festivals and such. 

The results being Protagonist 1 best friend develops feelings for Protagonist 2
And Protagonist 2 best friend likes Protagonist 1

Some drama happens and major confrontations happens conclusion being

Protagonist 1 Ends Up With Protagonist 2

Despite the best friends putting more effort than the main characters the end up with the short end of the straw. (DEM FEELS WHEN THIS HAPPENS)

It's not always the same with everybody some best friends end up with the other best friend!


Conclusion
Try not to be the best friend but rather the protagonist!

My First Month Of Smash











I had this written for a while but never got my way around posting it. So i decided to post it today and add a few more thing on there.

Well Here is my one month experience with playing Smash Bros for Wii u

How I decided To Get The Game
Prior on getting the Wii u i had no new console besides my Gamecube and had no intentions of getting a new console since most of them are out of my budget. Out of the blue a event happened that would change my life for the better. THE WII U WAS ON SALE AT WALMART FOR $270!! Normally i'm a cheap person that rarely spends over $30 but i decided ill be a rich guy just this once. I was prepared to pay the full amount, but luckily my brother was also interested so he covered half of the cost. The Wii U came in a bundle with pre installed Smash Bros and Splatoon. I didn't really care about Splatoon half as much as I did with Smash Bros. With the Wii U in my grasp I loaded that baby up and started making my Smash history.


For Glory And Getting Wrecked 
First goal was too unlock all the characters that were available. At first i thought the process would involve grinding story mode for a long time, which would suck if that were the case. I found out on a gaming forum that you could actually unlock the characters through getting a certain amount of battles. Being a competitive person that i am I didn't bother playing bots or the story mode I went straight to For Glory. I picked Marth as my main just because he is a sexy beast with those combos but also the King Of Smash Ken played him. Playing my first game I was cocky as hell I thought that just because i played since the original smash bros no one could touch me, oh how wrong i was. My opponent was Mario and all he did was grab me throw me and up air. I remember it was down to my last stock he down smash me and exposed me! A day i can not get back. Not knowing about unsafe moves was a big downfall for because i would just run and dash attack. The rest of the night was all losses not even 1 victory. That ended Day 1



Resolve and Being Consistent
With defeat in my face I had a new drive to get better. Starting with the fundamentals I learn the 2 things that improved my game the most, short hops and fast fall. With theses two tools i was able to step up my game till the point where i could take a few victory. I was playing at least 1 hour everyday at the same time watching videos of others players. Time past and i felt like i needed a break from Marth and moved on to other characters such as Kirby and Luigi. The knowledge i gain helped as well.

Creating My Own Tournament

I looked for tournaments on the forums however most of them were out of my skill level. I wanted a tournaments that were near beginner- amateur level, ultimately i was unable to find such a tournament. On a whim i made my tournament! I named it "Rookie All Stars" and boy I thought it was gonna be great! 5 people signed up which is not bad considering that this was a no name brand tournament with no prize. Jan, 9 was the day of the tournament and i was all set.

NO ONE CAME...

I was so disappointment man! Even the guy who sighed up last minute didn't show up!

Next time i'm gonna name my next tournament " Don't Bail Allstars"



Conclusion
Well thanks for reading!

Smash has been really fun!

I we all can do our best this year!




Don't Shotgun Anime Or Shows Because You'll Thank Me Later






How many times have you been in a situation where you find yourself watching a very good show and seem like you gotta watch the whole series in one night?  Trust me i been there before, many times i told myself " JUST ONE MORE EPISODE THEN IM GONNA STOP FOR REALS"

Lets be honest here that never happens gotta keep watching like the Pokemon motto "Gotta Catch Them All" The worst of the Anime show  are the ones that have reasonable amount of episodes like Samurai Champloo. I say it's the worst because it doesn't have a stopping mechanism.,unlike Naruto Or One piece that have a ridiculous amount of episodes  that make you just wanna stop by looking at the number of episodes anime that are 1-30 episodes don't really have that.

Most of the time when you plow through a series you get to a point of exhaustion where you seem like you can't keep up with the dialogue or the subtitles, also your memory of the episode may disappear.  It's important to take breaks between episode , so you can come back stronger than ever ! Just like a miniature time skip you find in certain shows!


One big tip is do your research! Search if your current series have any filler episode or arcs that would drastically reduce the time and lets you finish your series quickly! Since they're filler it's not necessary to watch them.




In conclusion shotguning short series may not be a bad thing, but long series should be a red light.
To gain 100% satisfaction from the show you wanna be prepared. Set a limit a day about how much you watch. I say 2-4 episodes a day should be max.  Always take do your priority first, school homework or your job.

 Well with that ends this article.

Fillers Are Actually A Positive Thing If You Can Bear Through Them!




In case you're a new anime viewer or just didn't realize it as i have in the past. In this world we have something called "Fillers" Now what is a filler you may ask? Well put too it short....... THEY"RE A LIVING HELL THAT PREVENT YOU FROM GETTING TO THE FINISH LINE!!!  Just kidding! (Sort of)

Fillers in fact are things used to take up space, they exist everywhere around us. When you go order a drink from a restaurants, most of the time they will be a ton on ice in it, why? Too maximizes profits. See when they put ice in the drink the water will rise making it seem like your drink is full, when it is really only half way full. This is one type of filler.

The filler that exist within anime and other genre shows which i like to call "show fillers" is almost the same principle of the one i described above. Instead of taking up space the true intentions of show fillers is too stale time and try to "milk" the show as long as possible until everyone gets borderline sick of it. As a result the show you may be watching might not reach the end line for couple of months later then anticipated.

Don't worry I know dem feels.


Now that pretty much the negative parts about fillers.
However there are some good parts to them!

Fillers are active most around really big and popular named Animes such as Naruto so you don't have to worry about fillers for every anime!

Fillers are a great way to learn more about the character and the world that they live in. Most manga follow the story timeline consistently so a lot of the characters get shunned out as a result we don't get to know much detail about them. Fillers give you that nice opportunity but be warned many of the fillers are non canon meaning that they not approved from the creator or do not follow the storyline.






Bleach Should Have Ended After The Aizen Arc






WARRING CONTAINS HUGE SPOILERS


It's been a couple of years since the anime version of Bleach discontinued but personally i think it was for the best.  As like many of you Bleach was part of my childhood it was one of the few anime that were popular enough and was shown on television in western society along side Naruto, One Piece, Dragonball etc...... I even considered it to be one of my all time favorites until it became a story that had cloned itself.


Okay on to the point. Many of you are are familiar with the whole infamous final Getsuga Tensho used against the unkillable  Aizen. The damage he inflicted on Aizen was severe and Ichigo and friends managed to stop Aizen, but came at a price, his Shinigami powers.

Totally would have been the best way to end the series! Ichigo sacrifices his powers to save the world one last time and moves on, knowing that his friends will take over, live the high school life and takes it easy.

Instead Ichigo finds new powers called "Full Bring" and the whole thing goes down from there.

Eventually Ichigo plays the Song Of Time and gets his old powers back like how he did in the first episode. Rukia stabs him in the with her sword and BAM back to good old substitute Shinigami.

Did i mention that guy also a Quincy like F**k

Ichigo will also be the only character that i know that was all the spiritual species combined.

As for Bleach as a series they should Bleach out the arcs after Aizen. ( No Pun Intended)


Well Leave Your Thoughts Below.




  

Does One Punch Man Live Up To The Hype? (My Thoughts)




Two week ago on this very day, I finished a anime so epic you can say it can knock you out with ONE PUNCH.


Summary
One Punch Man was the hype news for a while, many groups and memes were created to share their appreciation for the show. However the question many who did not watch the show nor read the manga gotta be asking  "Does it live up to it's reputation?"

The whole premise of the show can be pretty much be summed up in the title One Punch. Funny thing is some battles take more than one punch which i found hilarious. Anyhow the story follows a unemployment man that goes by the name Saitama. Saitama encounters a monster and decides he wants to fulfill his childhood dream of being a hero.


Defeating monsters with One Punch on a daily basis Saitama battles eventually become dule and too easy. With each passing day Saitama waits for the opponent that can give him a battle that he so longs for.


My Thoughts

At first I actually didn't want to watch this show because i thought it was lame. The title "One Punch Man" sounded like it was one of those cliche superhero shows. After my Facebook feed was flooded with One Punch Man content, I decided to give it a go.

BOY WAS I WRONG!  IT WAS AMAZING!

Saitama's relax and comical approach to situation set the tone of the show. Most of the time he doesn't really care and puts on this goofy look, but when serious events occur such as if someone might get hurt, the bad ass side of Saitama comes out.


Most of the time TOO OVERLY powered characters get a lot of hate and bad ratings such as Kirito from Sword art Online. The thing that makes Saitama different from your typical OP is that he doesn't act likes hes OP also is able to relate to everyone around him and not just the characters in the show but also us as viewers. His willingness too take a hit for the greater good will always leave a tear in your eye.

Of course you got many other characters that have their time in the spotlight too and i could mention them but i rather you guys watch it, if you haven't already.

Overall good show that really gets you engaged. I mean i finished the whole 12 episodes in 1 day ! Not many anime have done that to me before. I can say with good confidence that it does live up to the hype!










Would Goku Have Been Ready For Namek Without the help Of Senzu Beans?

It's no secret that the Frieza arc was arguably one of the best arcs in the whole Dragonball franchise. I mean i spent hours just replaying awesome battles such as Goku vs Frieza to comical Ginyu scenes like when he got his bodied swapped with a toad. However one particular montage stood out to me the most. Goku's outer space training.
Goku's training regime is second to none!  When it comes down to who pushes themselves the hardest, Goku yields to no one. Goku's tenacity and fierce devotion to his friends and family are one of the few main reasons why he always comes out on top.
Despite all this, there have been times when Goku trained too hard and needed the help  of a magically food. Yes i am talking the Senzu bean!
It's nutritious rejuvenating properties almost instantaneously heals and repairs the consumer from fatigue. Not only that but the bean will keep you full for 10 full days!  Man we should be calling theses things Senzuroids instead of beans!
Unlike other anime characters  with absurd healing abilities, Goku has none of that, so he has to heal and rest like everyone else when there is no healing applications around.  So that brings us back to Goku's  Namek training. We the viewers see that every time Goku is pushed to the limit of his training he goes for a Senzu bean, and shortly after being healed he starts his training once again.
  hqdefault
Goku like many other Saiyans have a inner ability called "Zenkai" When a Saiyan recovers from injuries that many would deem fatal they would get a power increase in their overall abilities.
Withdrawing the Senzu beans from the picture, would Goku been able to reach the same power level as he did without them?  I personally say  he would be near the same due to the result of the Zenkai boost but still far.
Goku's training heavily relied on his body being in top form so he can get the maximum results. Without the Senzu beans to heal him he would had to be patience and wait for the body to naturally begins it's recovery cycle, which in turn would have to be taken away from his training time. With training time reduced he may not have been able to reach 100x gravity Hence not being able to do many of the things we saw in the show such as Kaioken x20
With or without Senzu beans i think Goku would have been a beast anyways.
What are your thoughts?
Do you think the Senzu beans played a big part of Goku's training?
