How can you be so ignorant of what your kid does? Listen to the little poo poo when he's telling you what he's into. Midousuji is the man. He truly deserved to win.

How can you be so ignorant of what your kid does? Listen to the little poo poo when he's telling you what he's into. I've been doing judo for 10 years and mma for 3 years and my parents have never seen me practice or cared jack about it and I have great parents and I have good relationships with them. If I played piano or something they would be extremely interested. If the activity itself isn't interesting to a person, then it isn't, but you can still love your kid to death. Though if you see a person who is really good at something it's always awesome to see him/her perform, no matter if you don't care about the thing itself. So Onoda is gonna blow her mom's mind.

I'm sorry- what I meant was: How could you have a shoujo manga with "a male counterpart of the 'mostly superfluous vaguely romantic highly expository' girl" without it turning into a harem manga? Is there seriously any other way?

The male equivalent to boys being homosexual and playing sports is magical girl shows.

Different characters turn into the expository dialogue man based on the power level of the guys around them. In Stardust Crusaders, they take turns being the expository dialogue man except for Jotaro, who is strong and silent.

Y'know, the ones who only show up to explain what's going on, marvel at how cool the main characters are, and imply that the main characters aren't gay. You can do that in a show about girl's sports. If you swapped the genders of all the characters in Yowamushi Pedal, it wouldn't suddenly turn into a harem manga centered around guy-miki.

No lie, I would unironically love to live in a world where any of the Jojo fashions were the norm. Especially Vento Aureo. The worst thing that the Club Kid scene did was die.

I made you guys some presents (from the best episode to air so far, aside from maybe the ones where Arakita just tears poo poo up): *FYI, it's really easy to get great quality captures using the iOS Chrunchyroll app and the built-in screenshot feature.*

I try to channel Midousuji every time I work out. If they made a decently priced Kyoto-Fushimi jersey I'd be all over it.

You can't just be hungry for victory, you also need the emotions of your team-mates pushing you along like helpful ghosts. If he'd taken that dude's number tag he would've won.
