Sports series and their lessons

SLAM DUNK: Ball is life.

HAPPY!: Ball is life and sex workers are great babysitters.

PRINCE OF TENNIS: Ball is life but a big responsibility because you might accidentally cause a mass extinction event.

KUROKO NO BASUKE: Ball is life and fistbumps are dangerously powerful.

FREE!: Water in large quantities destroys lives and the battle between a well-done coming of age story and capitalism and fanservice will give a director no choice but to seek solace in emotional devastation and violent action scenes.

HAIKYUU: Ball is life and volleyball is made up.

REAL: Ball is life and legs are optional.

ROBOTXLASERBEAM: Ball is life and it's important to teach this lesson to robots before their uprising so we have common ground.

YURI ON ICE: Getting shitfaced to meet your idols will only benefit your personal and professional life.

ALL OUT!: Ball is life and if you embrace this you can overcome your physical insecurities.

SK8 THE INFINITY: You don't have to be the best at something if you're enjoying it with someone you love and if there had been skateboarding in England in the 1880s JoJo's Bizarre Adventure would have been much shorter.

OOKIKU FURIKABUTTE/BIG WINDUP: Ball is life and your pitcher's health is paramount because if he is injured you have to take him to the outfield and shoot him like a horse with a broken leg.

TEPPU: There is no point in sports if you don't draw blood and excessive Jean Claude van Damme movies will permanently alter your sexuality.

EYESHIELD 21: Ball is life and Satan rules.

MEGALOBOX: No matter how dystopian the future, people will always want to gamble on the outcome of two men punching each other.

HIKARU NO GO: Ghosts are real.

guess who's reading oofuri (og scene below the cut)

The thing with mclennon and love confessions is their relationship just seems so twisted and shrouded in layers of indirection that I straight up cannot picture them having a sincere, vulnerable conversation without it turning into some bizarre game of self destructive one-upsmanship. Like if John ever told Paul he was gay I feel like Paul would've just said "Well I'm gayer."

Autistic Anime Boys Side B Round 2 Match 7

Propaganda:

Edgeworth -

"Being pushed by my friend for this but also they're 100% correct. This man is stiff, formal yet impolite, terrible at understanding the feelings of those around him, but has an inexorable sense of justice and and excellent eye for detail. He's a loser nerd who deals with his emotions for his rival by setting up a nonsense chessboard about it. His autism swag and eccentric pretty boy design was so popular he actively changed the direction of the series, and now makes an appearance in more games than any other character, including the original protagonist. Also he gets to play mind chess in one of his spin off games."

Mihashi -

"Mihashi has trouble with eye contact, struggles with social situations, seems to have a hatred or avoidance for change, has a hyperfixation/special interest in baseball and specifically pitching to the point that his friends and coach have to put limits on his pitching lest he do it too much and hurt himself, he abides by strict politeness scripts with regards to names and honorifics even when told he doesn't need to, he seems to get overstimulated easily, he needs to be reminded regularly what the "right" or "normal" thing to say in a situation would be, and he has poor volume control (talks very quietly). He is extremely hard to understand and is seen as needing "translators" in a lot of instances. He also has big beautiful autism creature eyes. Look at one image of him going :◇ and tell me he isn't the best."
