Anime Caption Contest! -- 9/3/13 -- AV MOD MATERIAL



Welcome back to the Anime Vice Caption Contest! You know the drill; we have three new images that need some funny captions! See who won the previous contest below!

Rules

  • You can caption any or all of the images!
  • You can caption the same image more than once, but not in the same post!

Your captions will be judged by the hosts of THE VICE PIT themselves; Tom Pinchuk and Sam Weller! The winners and their winning captions will be featured in the next Caption Contest post!

HELP! THE IMAGES WON'T INSERT CORRECTLY!

I've noticed some users don't always insert the images correctly in the comment section. To make sure you post the images properly, you should copy them from this post and paste them into the comment box, rather than upload the images again yourself. To do this, highlight some of the text below the images (try starting from "want to recommend") all the way up to some of the text above the images (try highlighting up to "fill in the captions!") and then right-click on that text and select "copy", go to the comment box, right-click inside that and select "paste" - then all you need to do is fill in the captions! Hope that helps, have fun!

Winners!

"I TOLD YOU TO KEEP HER AWAY FROM THE BLONDE!! DAMMIT! I'M ON MY WAY!"
~ SamJaz
"Oh come on! We can't both be the shameless fanservice girl!"
~ DocHaus

"OH MY GOD, this Nigerian Prince needs our help, lets go girls!"
~ Mutant_God

New Caption Contest!

So, are you up to the challenge? Just copy the images (READ INSTRUCTIONS ABOVE!) into the comment box below and fill in the captions!

"Caption me!"
"Caption me!"
"Caption me!"
"Caption me!"
"Caption me!"
"Caption me!"

Want to recommend some images for the contest? Go to my profile and send them to me in a PM and I'll check them out.

Have fun and good luck!

ONE PIECE #609 - - Special Review



Now that he’s using all these Wesker-like super moves (and remembering
to clean his face
), Vergo is finally living up to the badass rep that Oda wanted
us to just buy when this dude was introduced however many episodes back. The show’s kind-of getting into soap opera
territory (where half the conversations seem to consist of terse talk about
characters’ bitter history together
), but I do appreciate the irony of this guy toying with Law in exactly the same fashion as when he
tortured Smoker earlier.

Actually, “the show being on the other foot” seems to be an odd,
recurring theme for this episode. Between the narcotic candy that the lil’ big’uns
are hooked on and Caesar’s uncanny resemblance to the weed demon from CARTOON
ALL-STARS TO THE RESCUE, it feels like Oda’s been weaving some greater theme
about drugs in this ‘Punk Hazard’ arc. It’s all the more striking when Chopper frets about the effects of his performance-enhancer (a steroid by another,
fantastical name
) running out while he’s warning the kids not to take any
more candy because it’ll ‘ruin their bodies forever.’

I always felt like there was something… noteworthy about how
most of the superhumans in this world get their powers from ingesting exotic
plants. Hell, ‘Devil Fruit’ and ‘Logia’ are only a few syllables away from ‘Devil
Weed’ or ‘Lotus.’ No, I’m not trying to
draw some tenuous point about “What ONE PIECE is really about” on the
order of a head shop clerk’s radical interpretation of ALICE IN WONDERLAND.
Nevertheless, drugs do pop up a lot in this series, with wildly varying levels of
malevolence and benevolence, and I’ve got to wonder if Oda’s parents might’ve
been doctors or pharmacists or some such, because there is undeniably a message recurring here about one must know the difference between good drugs and bad ones.

Now, one of you go run with this thesis for your grad school paper.Watch this
episode,
"Luffy Dies from Exposure?! The Spine
Chilling Snow Woman Monet!” here and decide for yourself,
then read my comments about the previous episode here.

HUNTER X HUNTER #4 - - Watch & Learn



Yeah… Leorio doesn’t look like a teen. If he’s actually telling the
truth, then I guess he’s the HUNTER X HUNTER equivalent of that one kid on the football team who was held back a year to get bigger and also happened to grow a mustache years ahead of everybody else.

The show redeems itself for its… orange, carbonated digressions last
episode by throwing some properly-told twists our way this time. Obviously, I’m not
talking about the surprise about Leorio. That’s not a surprise so much as a
potentially gross detail that gets pushed your way matter-of-factly. No, of
course, I’m talking about the successive fake-outs regarding the Man-Ape and
our Hunters’ suspicious instructor.

Indeed... I’ll fess up to being fooled by the
impostor.

== TEASER ==

It’s a tenuous conclusion, perhaps, but I’m starting to suspect that
Togashi must’ve been one of the unusual mangaka who really got to play sports (or,
at the least, he’s a big fan of board games
). I think about YU YU HAKUSHO,
and the extensive attention that was paid to the brackets of the “Dark Tournament” arc
and the portions of “Chapter Black” which just sort-of reveled in their
similarities to game shows and video games.

Then, I think about how the last
three episodes have shown our heroes going through tests of virtue which seem devised by the producers of THE AMAZING RACE… and it’s hard
not to notice a pattern.

Actually, since I’m noticingthat pattern, I’ll go ahead and predict that
these trials are going to continue on for a solid batch of episodes. The fun run
and the Man-Ape fake-out have gotten our pool of Hunters down to 230 or so, and
damn it
, you know we’re going to be widdling that 230 down in gradual
increments.

Watch this
episode, “Hope x and
x Ambition" here and decide for yourself, then read my comments on the previous episode here.

AV MOD MATERIAL: Community Spotlight 8/30/2013



Greetings, Anime Vice Community. Tom had solo duty on many of this week's Vice Pit episodes, but he was aided by special guest Metal Mike. Among the topics discussed was what games could be made into anime. Did you share your thoughts? Sam did have a special video to share with the community involving the theme song from FIST OF THE NORTH STAR. You'll have to see it to understand.

Enjoy your Labor Day weekend!
