One Punch Man, Chapter 130, "Tornado Full Blast"

[waitineedaname]

I realized I made some notes on how different characters fight in mob psycho, and I never posted them. here you guys go, for any reference needs

Mob: mostly simple attacks, not very showy, just waves his hand and uses telekinesis/exorcizes something, doesn’t move around much. As ???%, much more destructive, psychic force seems to just emanate off of him and destroy everything

Teru: VERY mobile, throws himself around with telekinesis, puts his whole body into the attacks and tends to use moves from normal fights (punches, slaps, kicks, etc). Utilizes a variety of psychic techniques with flexibility, very creative. Piss stance, necktie sword. Much more flashy than Mob

Ritsu: uses powers to throw people/things around. While Mob and Teru attack with just psychic blasts, Ritsu tends to use his powers to grab other things as an attack (grabbing the delinquents and throwing them against each other, throwing the Claw guards against the wall, picking up cars to sandwich Shimazaki between them). Uses his environment creatively (fire extinguisher smoke screen against Shimazaki). More flashy than Mob, but not as mobile as Teru. Hand gestures for Drama

Shou: sneaky + speed + bomb!! Tries to be as evasive as possible using invisibility/speed (probably telekinetically enhanced?) to hit from behind, using either telekinetic force (his stomp in his introduction, the shockwave hit on ???%) or his charge bomb attack. Potentially uses speed/evasive moves as defense instead of the barriers we see most everyone else use

Serizawa: likes to channel his powers into an object (umbrella, business cards). Uses that object as a shield, sword, or something to blast psychic powers out of. Not very mobile in season two, moves around much more in the yokai fight. Not particularly flashy, but looks cool regardless

Reigen: deception/surprise!!! Either tricks people into thinking he’s going to do something else and then attacking, or just outright taking them by surprise and attacking before they know what’s going on. Usually doesn’t have a follow-up move, just does the one attack and hopes for the best. Prefers to bluff his way through a situation

favorite moment by far

[gumy-shark]

girl who loves analyzing fighting styles and characters power levels vs mob psycho 100, an anime which doesn’t focus on the mechanics of its power system at all

Touch Telepathy

It has been 20 years since she was touched.

Maybe longer, really. Time Lords avoid accidental brushes, and she was—somehow still is—their President, above it all. She can’t pinpoint the last time she took someone’s hand or caught their arm or brushed past them in the hall.

Companions watching Tav get possessed by an undead dragon: *yawn* so is this what we're doing now?

let me talk about something stupid to give myself a second before i start processing this

[telekinetiq]

goes from passive aggressive to just fucking aggressive.

It has always been my headcanon that Davy Jones doesn’t die if he steps on land during his ten years (since that’s too convenient a solution during the parley scene), but rather he just. Gets launched into the air and towards the nearest shore every time. It’s deeply inconvenient and keeps Jones from doing stuff on land, but isn’t the end of him either. Think that bit from Monty Python and the Holy Grail where everyone who can’t answer the bridge keeper’s question is unceremoniously launched into the sky.

YES!!! 😭😭😭 I love this omg

moment of all time...

I don’t think I’ve ever made a tumblr post before my bedtime

[chiaroscuroverse]

Has anybody within the sound of my voice ever made a fully separate second account for AO3 for a new fandom? Or did you use a pseud and how did that go? I'd love to hear opinions about pros and cons and experiences.

WELL I'M FUCKIN NOT

I’m so normal about this fan edit

the human brain is so astounding and unknown and resilient and surprising and weird. the final frontier is truly behind our eyes, not in front of them.

There are so many stories of people suffering extensive brain injuries, and they go into autopilot. Like this person: (TW: blood, injury, lack of memory, detailed gore)

Then there's the story of the man, Peter Porco, who's son put an ax in his head, attempting to murder him. He did die, but first, he got up, went down the stairs, went outside, got the newspaper, and sat down at the kitchen table to read it, where he passed from the injury.

Like WHAT THE HELL WHAG THE FUCK OUR BEAINS JUST DO STUFF. BASIC MOTOR SKILLS, ROUTINE, AND YOUR NERVOUSENSYSTEM ARE SO SO WILD
