Thoughts On Frauding Your Height?

[SakazOuki]

Yeah lifting and strengthening your core/back specifically can greatly improve your overall posture and probably give you a cm or two if you were pretty out of shape

To some degree yes, though depending on the lifting some muscles can get even worse
The main problem is the psoas, it’s a muscle that binds your spine to your hips, so when it gets tight it creates spine lordosis and ant pelvic tilt. This is tight in most people as sitting for hours on end is the primary cause, and even among lifters there’s no common exercise that fixes the issue

And the body overall works like a single unit, like having tight hamstrings would eventually change your posture to have rounded shoulders, rounded shoulders give a forward neck slant etc

They aren't completely wrong dude, anime is filled with degenerate shit more often than not lmao. 95% of anime is perverted fanservice. It's an unfortunate generalization but Japan did it to itself.

Imo, anime nowadays has tone down than before due to censorship. (check out Shimoneta and Prison School from 2015).

You don't really see a lot of Ecchi anime anymore, only like a few are degenerate like Redo Of Healer and Gushing Over Magical Girls come to mind.

This isn't really directly tied to physical height but one thing that has proven very true in my experience is that lean-ness definitely makes you seem a little taller in irl interactions.

Especially if you're within average height range (so like 5'9 - 6'0) the difference between being viewed as kinda short or kinda tall can heavily depend on how fat or not fat you are.

lmao

How tall are you yourself?

I'm above 190cm. I forgot exactly how much.

But small women make me feel like a pedo. The feeling of standing next to a child is unbearable. Even if I know for a fact that she is wayyyyy above 18, I still feel like the FBI is gonna break through the door and jail me for having had sex with someone small or whut

Spoiler

It's kind of a true feeling but also a joke of course. Even though I really avoid small women...

I haven't been following recent anime trends and series at all, there was this huge influx of isekai anime and I completely checked out of the entire medium. So I'll believe you if you say it's headed towards less degeneracy, especially since when I look back at the 90s it was never like this, so there is potential. Somewhere in the 2000s it became a cesspool of questionable fanservice.

There's still degenerate animes around don't get me wrong but it's rarer now.

But you're right about Isekai genre popping off especially during the 2015 - 2020 era where big names like Overlord, KonoSuba, Re:Zero, Slime, Shield Hero, Mushoku Tensei, etc took over the internet.

You see a lot of fanservice in Isekai anime (not full blown nudity but just soft-core ecchi) because Isekai authors can't write story without adding some fanservice unfortunately.

Manlets don't deserve to get laid anyway, so not really

People have been telling me freirien (not sure how to spell it) is really good. How does this compare to the rest of the field atm, is it unique?

Define manlet

 

[SakazOuki]

Maybe shorter then 5'10.6 actually

 

[TheKnightOfTheSea]

Half the people I know who openly like anime are degenerates, it's still socially better to hide it

Shorter than LeBron

I think Shaqille's wife is not small btw. Anyway, these guys are way above the average tall guy and they are in love I guess. That's what matters.

It’s over

In my experience it’s generally fine as long as you don’t OPEN with it when you’re meeting someone and make it your whole personality.

I’m much more worried about my Messmer statue, I legit put that thing under my bed sometimes

Well, for one, Frieren is not an Isekai. It's a fantasy show. Two, the anime is so popular that it topples Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood as number 1 anime on myanimelist. Not even the toxic FMAB fanboys that downvotes every anime to keep FMAB as number 1 can win against Frieren.

I only watched the anime so @Fujishiro can explain the series in details better since he's a manga reader but Frieren is great. It's very philosophical and the fight scenes are pretty good. The anime is made by Madhouse and they haven't been this much passionate about an anime series ever since One Punch Man season 1 ended back in 2015.

So I'd highly recommend it. I'd prefer watching the anime first then check out the manga later if you want.

Lord of the rings female Legolas whos instead a mage after they defeated Sauron. Dealing with her immortality and seeing her friends die, slowly learns to enjoy every fleeting moment. Also happens to have insane animation and battles. And one of the best Antagonists in like manga or anime.

Its rated number 1 in myanimelist for a reason.

Also badass female characters.

See that's the thing, I judged it by its cover, it looked like an isekai to me and I kept far away from it. This is some serious hype, gonna check it out.

On second thought just pretend you have no interests or hobbies outside of reading feminist literature

Much easier that way
Pic?

Its not an isekai, its a fantasy anime/manga. Check it out, anime first its 28 episodes then go for the manga. Actually treats females with respect and they are strong as fuck.
