his week Joey the Anime Man and AkiDearest talk Anime cliches. There's a ridiculous amount of cliches in anime, and Joey and Aki want to try some to see what would actually happen in real life. There's the toast in mouth and Aki wants to test out nose-bleeds. Joey wants to know, if you fell on a girl how would you actually land because in Anime it's like an impressive yoga move. Also how slow can you fall; Anime slow-mo is epic. There's also the running, yelling, high-pitched voices, how fast you need to run to have your skirt fly like it does in Anime, friendship power (to beat the bad guys) and so the list goes on. What do you want to test IRL?
