100 laws of anime physics

[jeffbert]

Somebody actually took the time to codify 100 laws of anime physics, using terms such as malletspace (#37- Law of Extradimensional Capacitance), #44- Law of Nominative Clamovocation, & #46- Law of Flimsy Incognition.




I had to remove the URL because some of the terms I encountered after posting this were unfit for a family-friendly forum. However, I found another site that has only the appropriate items: http://www.comicscommunity.com/boards/pop/...ames;read=24019
However only 46 are listed here.

Thanks, I enjoyed it!

I was thinking of Astroboy (what else! while I was reading, and it's not *that* bad, I mean not that stereotyped!

I think this one is the most universal, not only to anime:

#3 - Law of Sonic Amplification, First Law of Anime Acoustics
In space, loud sounds, like explosions, are even louder because there is no air to get in the way.

Honnestly though... I would hate watching Starwars without this law

What about the law of Feminine firearms coefficiency?

The more busty the shape, the more accurate and destructive the gunfire flowing from the anime heroine. And...the more she misses getting hit.

I never heard of this one. It seems ralated to the one about the neophyte having superior skills than the combat vetran. However, I do not think this one was listed among the 47 on the site whose link I furnished. It was among the 100 on the 1st site; but as mentioned above, there were more than a few that I deemed inappropriate for a family forum.

There's also the one about high capacity, multi-shot weapons adverse affects table according to the age of the shooter...

The older the shooter (See cutey Honey) The more likely the multi-shot weapon will destroy a city block but not hit the intended target.

"Grandpa...you missed."

"Yeah but the dang thing sure made an awesome noise didn't it!"

I loved that show. If you have not yet seen it, here is a thread about Cutey Honey and Higeoyaji.

I like #34.

Law of Probable Attire

Clothing in anime follows certain predictable guidelines.
Female characters wear as little clothing as possible, regardless of whether it is socially or meteorologically appropriate. Any female with an excessive amount of clothing will invariably have her clothes ripped to shreds or torn off somehow. If there is no opportunity to tear off the afore-mentioned female's clothes, then she will inexplicably take a shower for no apparent reason (also known as the Gratuitous Shower Scene).

Did you also notice that the hair of most anime girls and women always sticks up in the air?

Hey! This is a kid-safe forum. Please consider editing your post and choosing a more appropriate picture.

Regardless of that, the #34 should have included a mention of the females' physical characteristics. For, it seems to me that those who are subject to this law have certain physical attributes.
