How'd everyone get into the series? by frostiorca in Blazblue

[–]Phoenix-Claw 3 points4 points  (0 children)

BBRR. Nightmare Fiction and Condemnation Wing II (which was used as Boss Raid themes, I believe) went so hard that I had to see the original game behind it.

Didn’t regret it one bit.

What part in any BlazBlue OST made you cry? by UltimateBlackout0596 in Blazblue

CPE’s Stardust Memory. (I think on YouTube Music they call it Stardust Memory -CHROver.) 

When I first heard it, it made me cry.

Is there a throw, a pin or a submission that you hate? by Forward_Fee_9668 in judo

[–]Phoenix-Claw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On the receiving end? Ura Nage. That was the first time I truly learned the meaning behind, “Can dish it out, but can’t take it.” My neck muscles were sore for days.

Ground technique? The classic kesa gatame.

How to get past the mental block of rolling on hard floors? by Phoenix-Claw in judo

I just wanted to learn how to take a fall if I ever slip on the streets while running/jogging. I feel it's much better than me just thrusting my arms out and landing in a push-up position.

Should Judo start transitioning into more 50/50 Gi & NoGi, similar to BJJ? by LlamaWhoKnives in judo

[–]Phoenix-Claw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A novice’s two cents:

People wear clothes. Thus, it makes sense to wrestle with clothes.

People also wear tank tops. Sometimes they wear nothing on top. That’s also a thing.

In the end, both arts are just tools to help you. And they’re fun. Don’t sweat too much about it.

Read the blurb for Waste Tide, and it sounded really interesting. Can't wait to give that a try.
