[guiltygearofficial]

what's everybody's favourite anime

Sol watches Akira while drinking whiteclaw, leaning back into his lawn chair and thinking “Yeah. Now this is some good Animes.”

Ky does not watch anime, he believes japanimation to be too violent and that it teaches bad morals.

May watches Precure and One Piece together with Johnny. They still haven’t found the One Piece in the year 2187.

Zato tries to watch Mature and Sophisticated Seinen Anime, but whenever he turns on anything Eddie starts screaming the Dragon Ball GT theme song and demands they put that on instead. 

Millia’s knowledge of anime comes entirely what she overhears coming from Zato and Eddie. She doesn’t know what a Dragon Ball GT is but she is sick of hearing about the grand tour.

Chipp watches Naruto and has put much effort into canonizing Naruto as a catholic saint

Axl watches Isekai anime because he can relate to it. He’s the only person that gets a pass for watching Isekai anime.

Potemkin doesn’t have any particular favorite show, he watches a lot of clips online to study the animation thought.

Faust watches Cells at Work together with some of his patients to teach them  how their body works. He has written them a request to make an episode about what happens when you have ghosts in your blood, so he has something to show to Zappa.

Testament watches Soul Eater and Tokyo Ghoul. He is still mad about how the second one was adapted to this day.

Kliff watches Legend of the Galactic Hero because he somehow has to outboomer Sol in his anime tastes

Baiken watches Anji make a fool of himself in public

Anji watches RWBY and argues with people online if it counts as anime or not. He also starts“X could beat Goku” arguments for fun.

Venom was convinced by Robo-Ky to watch Food Wars with him. He agreed, thinking it could teach him how to become a better baker. He has been working on a bread good enough to make your shirt explode for three weeks without sleeping now

Jam watches whatever that Beef Stroganoff anime is

Dizzy watches wholesome slice of life anime where nothing bad happens. She’s managed to convince Ky to watch exactly one anime and it was Saint Young Men.

I-no watches nothing but h*ntai 

Slayer watches Hellsing together with Sharon. He considers it a very romantic series.

Robo-Ky watches flavor of the month anime and rates it entirely based on how many boobs he got to see

Raven watches The Junji Ito Collection for horny reasons

Zappa tries to enjoy Mob Psycho 100, but unfortunately he has never managed to watch more than four minutes of an episode before S-ko puts on The Grudge

A.B.A. is waiting for a Franken Fran anime adaptation to this day.

Bridget watches pokemon because he likes the cute lil dudes and is a good boy :)

Leo watches Jojo. His favorite is Part 1 because he likes watching the big buff guy punch the evil bad guys in the face very hard

Jack-o watches Soul Eater religiously. 

Sin watches any and all shonen anime because he thinks it’s super epic and badass. He has gotten into multiple “Who would win, Naruto or Goku” arguments with Chipp, Anji and Bedman

Elphelt and Johnny both watch harem anime because they’re both desperate like that. 

Ram does not know what anime is, she just watches cute puppy compilations on the internet

Answer watched the Phoenix Wright anime and tried to misuse the Eastern Chipp Kingdoms tax money to get an anime adaptation of Spirits of Justice going

Bedman watched Death Note and has a lot of Opinions on any given anime series currently running. He’s ready to tell you why your favorite anime is shit at the slightest (or none at all) provocation

Diputado Johnny Wright Sol se opone al régimen de excepción

El legislador de Nuestro Tiempo ha dicho que medidas violentan orden constitucional.

El Salvador está en camino de completar 60 días bajo régimen de excepción, medida que se tomó a partir de la escalada de violencia que se vivió entre el 25 y 27 de marzo recién pasado.

Sobre la posibilidad de un nuevo régimen de excepción por otros 30 días, el legislador de Nuestro Tiempo Johnny Wright Sol ha dicho que no respalda esa opción.

Sol afirma que la medida violenta el orden constitucional del país, a pesar que la misma si se contempla en el artículo 29 de la Carta Magna.

El diputado ha tildado de fracaso las acciones implementadas durante la vigencia del régimen de excepción, esto a pesar de los excelentes resultados que ha dejado.

El Salvador ya superó la barrera de los 31,000 pandilleros capturados y retirados de las actividades delictivas en los diferentes barrios y colonias, devolviendo la tranquilidad a la población.

Además, más de 20,000 miembros de estos grupos terroristas han pasado a la fase de instrucción y se les decretó detención provisional, estando en prisión por hasta 6 meses.

Sportspeople on GamesMaster: the definitive collection | Classic YouTube

This week’s round-up features a lot of Dominik Diamond. Plus a wild futsal own goal and Seb Coe training kids in 1980

1) Sportspeople and GamesMaster. There is a lot. Forgive us the clip timings. Dewi Morris and Rupert Moon play EA Rugby in 1995; John Barnes and Vinnie Jones meet on Fifa International Soccer, Vinnie Jones faces Andy Townsend and Les Ferdinand meets Vinnie Jones. Oh and then Kasey Keller and Townsend turn up in 1994 (Keller also featured with Andy Cole that year). An old favourite as John Fashanu hits the bar from a yard out on Manchester United Europe. Emlyn Hughes gets a beating on Emlyn Hughes International Soccer. There’s also Ian Wright, Tony Daley playing Striker on the Super Nintendo, then another triple-header, on Winning Eleven: Dean Holdsworth v Phil Babb, Holdsworth v David Kerslake and Babb v Graeme Le Saux. And obviously there is Richard Rufus v Michael Duberry on Sega Worldwide Soccer 97, plus Rufus v Chris Armstrong. All with added Jim Rosenthal. The subsequent year’s game then pits Sol Campbell against Christian Dailly.

Nigel Benn and Barry McGuigan see who hits harder on Sonic Blast Man (McGuigan was also on here), while Frank Bruno also had a swing, as did Gary Mason. Naseem Hamed plays Super Punch Out!! and Ryan Rhodes squares off with Khalid Shafiq on Street Fighter EX Plus α. Eric Bristow plays Heimdel on the Amiga; Jimmy White plays, er, Jimmy White’s Snooker (John Parrott tackled Archer Maclean’s Pool); Pat Cash and then-wife Emily face off on the Neo Geo’s Baseball Stars Professional; Rory Underwood gets to test his Air Force skills; Johnny Herbert gets his gear on for Lotus Esprit Turbo Challenge (then faces Mark Blundell on Sega Rally), while David Coulthard goes karting; Linford Christie and Colin Jackson meet for a sprint challenge, Steve Backley flexes his wrists and Roger Black goes up against Du’aine Ladejo, before John Regis and Tony Jarrett meet on Athlete Kings.

A First; Hopefully Not a Last

As of March 31, 2017, El Salvador has passed the world’s first total ban on metals mining. This is an incredible accomplishment for the people of El Salvador for activists have been fighting for decades and decades to protect their beloved country’s inadequate and sparse water supply.

This ban issued by the El Salvador government includes prohibiting all gold and all metal mining across the entire country- and the people could not be more grateful. “Today in El Salvador, water won out over gold,” stated Johnny Wright Sol, a legislator from the center-right Arena party. He continues, “It’s a wonderful moment for the first country to evaluate the costs and benefits of metallic mining and say no.”

Thousands of activists across El Salvador participated in protests to achieve this ban on metal mining. They marched with signs that read, “No to Mining, Yes to Life,” catching worldwide attention.  

Due to the fact that highly toxic chemicals and heavy metals contaminate over ninety percent of the surface water in the nation, this ban is extremely important. Furthermore, countries that also have polluted water, such as Argentina, Costa Rica, and Columbia, have begun to take after El Salvador and put partial bans on mining to decrease the contamination of their water supply.
