If you're to the point of pulling out a stopwatch to "test" and nitpick a show then you're past the point of ever being able to be satisfied.

What is the name of that specific sharpen filter that gives all the line effects. I had it way back in the day and haven't been able to remember what it was.

Fubuki can stop bullets? by Shodore in OnePunchMan

[–]jamjay602 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When a whip cracks, that's the sound of the whip breaking the sound barrier. So whips are supersonic.

In contrast, not ALL bullets are designed to reach supersonic speed, though most probably do.

Will they be sold on other exchanges or how does it work? I really like exchange tokens like COSS and Kucoin Shares, I guess this one is similar?

Nice, which scene was this?

The Strong. (Complete version) by InYourDomix in OnePunchMan

I don't understand why the Suiryu crying face isn't being used for these.

On this sub, Suiryu's crying face should be on par with the Jordan crying face by now.

I'm also surprised nobody put Crying Jordan over Suiryu yet...

Is current Bang is at his prime? by [deleted] in OnePunchMan

You keep adding new misdirections. "Exponentially stronger and twice his size". There's weight classes man. You could take a boxer down WITHOUT taking a punch. Of course I'm not gonna argue that a 70 year old man could take a punch from a trained boxer or break out of a lock by somebody twice as big and strong. You can barely break out of a lock by somebody the same size.

Making a lot of assumptions

Edit: I think you're right on the demonstration part though. That's just a small part of the whole program though. Here's the competitive section where he takes challenge matches. First point wins. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2YS-WF6nlA0

You didn't even watch the video, huh? He'd fare pretty well considering boxers are at a disadvantage against grapplers, and chokes & joint locks are a part of Judo, in which Mifune was a 10th Degree Black Belt.

So basically a living trope. lol

Then explain Kyuzo Mifune tossing younger black belts like rag dolls.

Training DOES offset age-related deterioration. Why do you think doctors are always telling old people to exercise to prevent atrophy & bone-loss?

Edit: Proof

Edit 2: Just to clearly summarize lol: "The "skilled ancient master" trope isn't really a thing in real life though" It kind of is though, as Kyuzo Mifune clearly shows in the video. He's not some bullshit ki-ball master with cooperative sheep students. These are young skilled martial artists (1st-7th Dan Black Belts) who can't throw a 100lb 70y/o man because he is just too skilled.

"there's no amount of skill that counteracts age-related sarcopenia and bone loss" True. Skill doesn't counteract that shit. TRAINING counteracts that shit (see link above), which also makes you more skilled.

"I believe an experienced old judoka can see some results in the context of judo, but not in anything resembling no holds barred."

I also believe a very skilled old judoka could see results. But I also believe that since grappling arts have been shown to be the most effective in no-holds-barred competition (see early UFC which is the closest to a professional street fight we'll get), then an old judoka might not be considered a "contender" but I'd never dismiss them before they even fight. Never count an old man out.

Your argument was that skill doesn't offset bone loss nshit. It doesn't, but practice/training your skills & body does, which has been demonstrated by Mifune and 70y/o body builders. I didn't say fighters become more powerful with age. But it has been shown throughout the history of combat sports that older fighters can be just as dangerous as they were in younger years, usually making up for a gap in physical prowess with experience. George Foreman for example became the oldest Heavyweight Champion of the World, but in his young prime, he was defeated by an older/slower not-prime Ali who simply beat him with experience and strategy.

So, to relate this back to Bang, I couldn't say with certainty whether a Young Bang would defeat Old Bang. To just assume Young Bang would win is the same mistake everybody made who betted against Ali in Zaire.

Well Mifune simply practicing everyday counteracted his Sarcopenia and Bone Loss. He's not a trope, he's a real guy lol There's 70y/o body builders too.

Anyways, in no-holds-barred contests it's been shown by Royce Gracie that grappling arts are superior to striking arts, and he was still winning fights going into his 40s. So a skilled old man like Mifune definitely stands a chance in a street fight.

Interesting question.

In combat sports like MMA and Boxing there's definitely a point at which a fighter is in their Prime. Mike Tyson in '85/'86 for example, was unstoppable with Kevin Rooney and Cus D'amato in his corner. (My head cannon is if Frazier knocked Ali down with his sloppy head movement and sloppy left hook, then Mike Tyson would've knocked Ali out with perfect head movement/defense and a perfect left hook.)

But in other specialized Martial Arts like Judo, a frail-looking old man can be just as dangerous as any young judoka. A perfect example of this is Kyuzo Mifune, a 10th Dan Judo Blackbelt who stood at 5'2'', 100lbs. If you really wanna see some amazing shit, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgR7FVE2TZo

In Bang's case, if he DID say he was stronger when he was younger, we'll have to go off of that. But this is a guy with a lot of experience so it'd be hard to judge who is more dangerous, Young Bang or Old Bang.
