Pipa-chikiriau, if you are not pipa-chikiriau, then you are still pipa-chikiriau
Assassin's Creed is a legendary franchise that has captured the hearts of millions of players since its inception in 2007. The unique concept of time travel and being in different historical eras with the struggle between Assassins and Templars has gained popularity. However, many fans are wondering: how did this idea degrade over time?
📜 Stage 1: The rise of popularity
💔 Stage 2: Overload
😟 Stage 3: Simplification and commercialization
🌀 Stage 4: A new course or time for a change?
💬 Conclusion: What's next?
Assassin's Creed has left a big mark on the history of video games, but many believe that it needs to return to its roots. Given the vast world and the possibilities that can still be explored, it remains to be hoped that future games will be able to preserve the spirit of the series, returning to its basics.
Today I will tell you a few facts about the Attack. The kettlebell forest!
* * *
The events of the Titan Attack unfold in an alternate world in which our countries and nationalities have never been present.
Most of the main characters are Eldians. They are the only representatives of humanity capable of turning into titans and dominated the world.
However, despite this, there is a connection with the real world in the names and surnames of the characters. For example, a girl with the surname Akkerman lives in Finland. She broadcasts on Gwent, and she can also be seen among the casters of official tournaments for this game.

Annie Leonhart, despite her last name, is called Russian by fans. They made this conclusion based on the Slavic appearance of the heroine. Besides, Annie is Mr. Leonhart's adopted daughter, so the last name does not relate to her ancestry in any way. Elena is also attributed to the number of Russian characters, but with her everything is more obvious.
The British were attributed toErwin Smith,Armin Arlert, the Grice family, represented by Colt and Falco, Flock Foster, Peak Finger, etc...
If you're interested, you can find dozens of similar collections on the Internet with all the characters of Attack of the Titans. I don't see much point in continuing, so let's move on to the next fact.
Arifumi Imai is the animator in charge of Levi's fight against The Beast of Titan, among many other scenes. He reported that it took him four whole months to bring this scene to life. One month was spent on the storyboard, while the animation itself took three months.
When Hajime Isayama was just developing the concept of Attack on the Titans, he worked part-time at the net cafe. The people he met there served as a source of inspiration for some of his characters. InHe told the Encyclopedia of Attack of the Titans characters that he modeled the design of Mikasa's character with one of the cafe's visitors - in particular, with her scarf, hairstyle and eyes.
Not only the UPM plays a huge role in the fight against giants, but also the swords that the characters use. The soldiers' weapons are made of special heavy-duty steel, the production of which requires the use of blast furnaces.
These swords are great for fighting giants, easily cutting through their flesh. Any other weapon does almost no damage to the giants.
Despite the fact that Hanji is undoubtedly a woman in the anime, in the manga, at the initiative of its author Hajime Isayama, there is intentionally no indication of Hanji's gender. So, it's up to the reader to decide how he perceives Hanji.
The very idea of giants came to Isayama when he was trying to overcome a drunken visitor to an Internet cafe where he himself once worked. He was inspired by the gentleman's inability to communicate with the people around him.
He decided to bring the situation to the point of absurdity, adding to the insane state of gigantic height, crooked proportions and a frightening facial expression.
In the second opening of season 3, the creators hid a hint about the fate of one of the main characters. Almost at the very end of the screensaver, we see the face of a Colossal titan, which is quickly replaced by a newly awakened Armin.
But the most interesting thing here is that for a short moment the image of a burned-out Armin appears in the frame, who sacrificed himself for the sake of victory over the Colossal.
Initially, Hajime was going to kill all the heroes, with rare exceptions. But I came to my senses: the anime suddenly turned out to be cool, the manga became a hit, and it would be stupid to end the story tragically in light of all this.
The literal translation of the original title, Shingeki No Kyojin, is Progressive Giants, and it sounds ridiculous. As a result, the official international name was chosen by Hajime Isayama himself — Attack on Titan. And although it is not so much the Titans who attack as the Titans themselves, this option is still many times better.
One of the reasons why the finale of Attack of the Titans was so successful is that the creator of the series was able to make important changes to the script. In the original manga, Armin thanks Eren for turning into a monster to try to help the people of Paradise Island. This makes it clear that Eren was a martyr who did the right thing. That's not what Isayama wanted to emphasize, so he changed it in the anime. In the new version, Armin shows Eren love and understanding, but still holds him responsible for his actions and tells him that he will see him in hell.

Well... Yum-yum-yum... These are the facts I have found, if you like it, then I will make a similar post sometime. See you, as always, in 3 months. BB!

In the 21st century, humanity was able to curb magic and develop cool technologies based on it. But even this did not help to cope with problems such as overpopulation and hunger. The Little Ice Age came, and tension between the countries resulted in the bloody Third World War. The planet's population has been halved, and the most powerful magical clans have gained power. From now on, the military power of states is determined not by the number of missiles and nuclear weapons, but by wizards. That is why talented magicians are nurtured from a very young age.
In Japan, they built a special school at the Magic University, where there is a clear division into the "elite" - magicians, and "weeds" - ordinary people. Tatsuya Shiba, along with Miyuka's sister, enrolled in this school. And if Miyuki was immediately accepted into the elite group, and Tatsuya failed the practical exam and was ranked among the weeds. The guy began to make good progress in his studies, showed masterful fighting and even became an informal leader of ordinary people. And Tatsuya became interested in the head of the school board, Mayumi Saegusa – she accepted him into the council, which caused a wave of indignation among the elite and envious.
Kedo Ikusei is a famous educational institution that trains incredibly talented children who are able to become true masters in their field of activity in the future. The Academy has outstanding performance. Competing institutions definitely cannot boast of one hundred percent employment of students who immediately after completing the course receive prestigious jobs. All high school students here are not constrained by serious rules and strict discipline. They themselves understand the value of studying, so they try not to be distracted by stupid entertainment.
Outfits, hairstyles, all kinds of accessories – teenagers pick up all this arsenal on their own. It seems that there is definitely no more ideal place in the entire universe. Kiyotaki Ayanokoji is a simple guy who can hardly be called an exemplary student, because he prefers to fully relax and have fun. The young man is enrolled in class D. Upon admission, he failed the exam with a bang, so now he has to be content with the company of complete losers. There comes a moment when a guy changes his worldview. And the reason for the positive changes are two girls.
Sisti goes to the magic Academy to perfect her skills, and hopes to uncover the mystery of the mysterious Heavenly Castle. The guy who replaced her beloved teacher, Glen, turned out to be a slow, lazy, completely incompetent imitation of a teacher. How come Glen was chosen by the academy's best magician?!
The main character of this anime is Wanlin, one in millions of people is an exceptional instance of a talented person. But the guy, even as a child, decided that he would behave like an ordinary inhabitant of the human world and not show his abilities in front of others. Only now, he happened to get on the battlefield, where a powerful hero was fighting a rank 5 demon. The man who was part of the Divine Skills Squad, Juoi, unfortunately was inferior to the fallen in strength. Wanglin, on the other hand, decided to take revenge for the fact that the second prevented him from eating quietly and destroyed the demon. Only now the glory passed to the hero, who could not cope with the evil spirit due to a misunderstanding, but this did not upset the young man a bit. After 10 years, Wanlin enters a certain school of divine skills. And at the entrance exams, the newcomers had to show their skills, and the opponent turned out to be the spirit of the toad, which the guy once defeated. When the demon recognized Wanlan, he decided to pretend to be dead. Thanks to this, the student found himself in the class of the chosen ones. What awaits him next? After all, he just wanted to lead a peaceful life.
The main character of this story is a real esports player Xiu Ye. He is a participant in an MMORPG called "Glory". There are millions of users on the battlefields and our guy is on top of them all. But reality sometimes makes even such great warriors as Xiu Ye leave. He decides to leave the professional team and focus on his own life. He gets a job at a local Internet cafe, abandoning his hobby. Time passes and the developers launch another server in order to attract new gamers. The young man cannot resist and returns to the battlefield. But the balance of power has seriously changed after leaving. Now the seasoned player will have to start from the bottom and gradually regain the forgotten positions.
All avid basketball players are well aware of the famous Teiko school, where there is a special club famous for its grandiose victories. But at a certain point, the five outstanding players went their separate ways. Only a few people were aware that there was a sixth member of the famous team (phantom), who also had amazing abilities, but, unfortunately, remained in the shadow of more successful colleagues.
Tetsuya Kuroko ends up at the Seirin Educational Institution. He immediately signs up for a local band. Despite its relative youth, the institution has already managed to prove itself at the national tournament. Undoubtedly, the club was delighted that talented newcomers appeared in the ranks of athletes. Among the recruits was Taiga Kagami, a boy who studied in America. The not particularly noticeable young man was on the list of star players who regularly appeared on the grounds. But the information came only from his words. Should I believe him or not? Only time will show the real gift of a boastful guy, and, of course, the newfound comrades will appreciate it.
We are all used to comics being filled with various villains, madmen with a plan to take over the planet and other troubles. The city of Z City has long been accustomed to this kind of events, constant invaders from other worlds and other disasters. The most important thing is that a superhero always appears on time, who will cope with all the problems and will be able to defeat all the villains. Such a hero is a guy named Saitama. But he stands out from the general background in the life of a typical comic book city. He is short, cannot behave in a sufficiently pretentious manner and does not speak high-flown speeches. Moreover, the appearance of our hero consists of simple clothes, and there is not a single hair on his head.
In the past Saitama was an ordinary man who lost his job. Only thanks to his patience and constant training, the main character was able to become the strongest hero in the world in three years. To defeat the enemy, he only needs to hit the opponent once, as he will be defeated. But now he has a serious problem – there are no worthy rivals, and now this whole superhero life has turned into a real routine for him.
A young boy named Mo Fan is a student of the third grade of a secondary school, but not a simple school, but one where magic is taught. One day, while vacationing in the mountains, Mofan met an old man who gave him an unusual amulet. This amulet seemed to emit magical energy and Mofan immediately became interested in magic. Unfortunately, he was a very mediocre young man, and his family could barely make ends meet. But still, thanks to his father's acquaintances, he managed to enter the academy, where they teach magic, but there Mofan became a laughing stock. Not only was he the laggard in the group, but everyone was heckling him for getting here because he was a thief. Nevertheless, it turned out not to be so bad. Mofan, unlike the others, was a very unusual young man. Firstly, he was able to awaken a very rare element of magic - fire. But beyond that, an incredible thing happened, Mofan was able to awaken the second element of witchcraft, which no one else could do. And this element turned out to be lightning, which is found in one in a million students. Having received two of the strongest elements, he did not turn up his nose, but on the contrary hid that he also possessed lightning magic.
In this world, there are alchemists — people who possess the art of alchemy, the ability to manipulate matter and transform matter. All of them are limited by the basic Law of alchemy: If you want to get something, you have to give something of equal value in return. Only with the help of the legendary Philosopher's stone, the method of creation of which has been lost, can this Law be circumvented. The main characters, the brothers Edward and Alphonse Elric, suffered in childhood while trying to bring back to life his mother, who died of an illness. They forgot the basic Law of alchemy and paid a heavy price for it: Alphonse lost his entire body, and Edward lost his leg. Edward managed to save only Alphonse's soul by sealing it in ancient armor, giving his hand in return.Many years later, Edward passes the state exam for the title of alchemist and receives the nickname "Steel Alchemist". The brothers begin a journey to find the Philosopher's Stone and use it to return what they lost many years ago
The Taisho era was full of surprises. Many legends found their logical confirmation in those years. People have been thinking about the presence of demons in the thick of the forest for a long time. And these creatures were extremely dangerous and bloodthirsty. At night, they hunted people, killing innocent citizens, demons fed on their flesh. However, over time, these legends began to resemble fairy tales more. There were no similar incidents in the forests, people stopped believing. And it was in vain, because a few years ago with the father of the main character – Tanjiro Kamado had an accident.He disappeared under strange circumstances, and the young man assumed responsibility for the family. When Tanjiro went to sell coal, he did not think that when he returned home he would find a bloody picture. His relatives were killed. The family is torn apart, and there are traces of blood everywhere in the house. The only person left alive is his sister. She told about the demons that came from the forest to their house. It turned out that the girl had been converted by them and could soon become a murderer. The hero of the story needs to monitor the behavior of his sister and avenge the death of his mother and younger brother.
The cruel lord of darkness, defeated two thousand years ago, has been reborn... However, at the academy, where candidates for the lords of darkness are taught, he was given a grade… "not good"?! He destroyed people, spirits and even gods, but the endless war bored him, and the lord of darkness Anos Voldigod was reborn with a dream of a peaceful world. Only two thousand years later, his descendants, who were extremely weakened from peaceful life, and magic that had completely decayed, were waiting for him. Anos went to the Academy of the Lord of Darkness, where they collect and educate those who may turn out to be a reborn lord, but they did not see his powers and branded him unfit. Moreover, everyone believes that there is nothing in common between him and the legendary lord of darkness. Others consider him inferior to themselves, and of Anos's followers, only the girl Misha, who was the only one who was kind to him. Thus begins the path of the unfit lord of darkness up the magical hierarchy. "Whether by the will of providence, fate, or a miracle, sooner or later everyone will prostrate in front of me."

Teiko High School has become famous in a fairly short period of time. But it was not significant achievements in the field of knowledge that made her famous so quickly, but, oddly enough, the school basketball team. For three years in a row, she became the winner of the international championship, which eloquently proved the skill of her participants.The team consisted of more than a hundred people, but only five stood out among them, better known as the "Generation of Miracles". Each of these geniuses of the site demonstrated an amazing level of skills. But there was a sixth among them, who could also be called exceptional, since the five celebrities recognized him as their equal. However, for some reason, this player has always remained aloof from universal popularity...After graduation, Teiko's students went to different high schools, and the Generation of Miracles was no exception. Tetsuya Kuroko, the packer of the famous team, goes to Seirin High School, where he joins the basketball team, despite the fact that it was formed very recently, just over a year ago. Here he meets Taiga Kagami, a player with whom he has to go through a lot to get the opportunity to fight each of the "Generation of Miracles".
Hello everyone Today I'm going to tell you about a very interesting anime that has reached people from all over the world. What is it exactly? - I'll tell you now.
* * *
You had a feeling when you remembered a cartoon, a game, or a book. You start scouring the internet for the name, but you DON'T FIND ANYTHING.
Now I'm going to tell a similar story, which has a huge fanbase, a lot of theories and guesses. Let's go!
It all started in February 2015 on 4chan. One of the users shared a story about a strange anime from the guro genre that he once saw. (Guro is a trend in hentai dedicated to mixing eroticism with all sorts of tin, like dismemberment, trauma, and the like.)
According to his story, a group of 9 schoolgirls were locked in a large white room with no doors, very similar to a bathroom. Suddenly, arguments begin between the heroines about whether they need to leave this room. Conversations lead to nothing and after a few days, starved and desperate schoolgirls eventually commit suicide. Someone cut his throat, and someone drowned himself. Its name, as the author of the post said, was Go for a punch. And after a while, one of the users wrote that the anime was called Saki Sanobashi.
And this story would have been over if other users had not started to remember that they had also seen this anime. They gathered in small groups and started watching a lot of anime in the genre of Hentai Guro, 80-90 years (it was in these years, as the author of the post said, and the anime was created), but they did not find anything.
The story seemed to have died down, but in 2018, another user on Twitter also described this anime. According to him, he was looking for a Manga where 3 girls were stuck in a room, and there was also a moment in which one girl helped another drown herself. And its name is in Japanese: Saki Sanobashi.
Thanks to this post, people started digging the Internet again and here are some new facts.
If you didn't know, there are 3 types of alphabet in Japan: Katakana, Hiragana and Kanji. Let's focus on the last one. There are several characters in it that read the same way, but are written differently and therefore have different meanings.
The name of the anime that some users suggested: Saki San no Bashi (in the Saki Torture Room)
In 2019, one of the Reddit users said that he was the author of the first post about Saki Sanobashi, claiming that it was a joke that he came up with. To confirm that the author of the post is really him, namely, he provided the data of the original image that he used in the post.
the same file
But it turned out that this is not true, because the weight of his file and the file on 4chan are different.
After a while, people found a website with a video and a description that matched Saki Sanobashi's description. The site was called Dark Anime. It turned out that the anime was released in 1986, but there is one THING. The website where it was available was created at the end of 2014.
One of the popular theories is that the authorities banned this anime. In Japan, the Guro genre was banned by the government, respectively, the anime was banned and no one knew their names anymore.
At the time of 2024, the search continues, and people are creating a lot of interesting art and even created a video game and fan animation.
* * *
Well, this is where this story comes to an end. Who knows, maybe in a few years people will finally find the lost title, or maybe it will remain a mystery for many years.
