So this might sound dumb, but what kind of anime do people watch to get them pumped? I really like Initial D because it has a lot of energy both in the visuals of the races and it's music. Recently I've rewatched a few fights from Hajime no Ippo and realized out that music is a pretty big part of it; there's some stings and music cues that really get the blood flowing. Now I'm wondering what other anime might fit that little niche.

Chihayafuru and Ping Pong The Animation are obvious choices, and you might want to also check out Haikyū!!, Yowamushi Pedal, Big Windup! and Slam Dunk.

For some reason (I'm guessing it's some kind of obscure bug in the forum's coding) nobody has mentioned Redline yet. Until this is fixed, you might be able to work around it by mentally replacing every word in the previous few posts with Redline. It's probably what they were trying to say in the first place.

Just to be safe, you may want to Redline the next few posts as well.

OOoh, Redline looks like entirely my poo poo. Definitely gonna nab it. So one of the reasons I asked is that I like to do cycling and weightlifting to get into shape and like that extra bit of mental motivation before hitting the gym. I'll definitely be looking into that Yowamushi Pedal one, but has there ever been an anime about weightlifting before? I honestly don't know what you could even do with that.

Sadly no, but there's a couple characters in Yowamushi Pedal who are SERIOUS AS HELL about weightlifting and it rules.

The good parts are really good. Garrand posted:OOoh, Redline looks like entirely my poo poo. Definitely gonna nab it. Ashamed to say it but I used to watch the matches from Hajime no Ippo before working out to get pumped and it worked p good. It's been a while so I forget which series had the better music.

SMILE drat IT https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vK5Sn-hGZ7M I forget if Mako's theme ever actually appears in the show or not, though. If you want to talk energetic music Garrand, feel free to add me on Steam A standard for all workout playlists should be the Punch-Out Wii theme, though https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SH3pOt_H3Rc

It's been a while so I forget which series had the better music. Ippo is great to get fuckin psyched to run and cycle and lift. The first series and movies (1-72 + champions road and the other one) and season 3 has great music. Season 2 has really fuckin lame music and it mangles the hawk fight IMO. S3 is totally for real the poo poo though and the brought back the first series style of music (tho IDK if it's the same composer, if it's not he totally emulated it purposefully)

Watching Ippo to get pumped for working out is a great idea, and the only flaw is that you will never be as swole as Ippo.

This is going to sound odd, but my friends and I like to get together, drink some beers and watch anime, and lately we've been on a kick for bad anime that's fun to mock and make fun of, and we just finished up Psycho-Pass season 2. Do you all have any suggestions?

^ BFT is on Youtube, isn't it? Angel Cop would be a good one, make sure you watch it dubbed and then look up and watch the real ending after you finish it. Really, any bad 80s OVA would do, a lot of them are dubbed, and available in decent quality on youtube. They're also all pretty short so you can have a lot of variety in one night.

Thanks all. We're going for Mad Bull 34: turns out we only saw part 1 of 4 of the OVA. Time for the continuing adventures of Eddie-baaaaaan and Sleepy the crossdressing supervillain.

I admit Valvrave would be the better choice, but Aldnoah absolutely has its moments. Most of them involve dramatic gun-pointing.
