| Just a way to identify things so readers interest gets piqued and they know what to expect. It's not like people would be shouting shit in real life. That'd just be giving the enemies information needed in order to counter said move. |

| I noticed that too. I think it's so the viewer can be like "yeah, awesome!" when the protag pulls out a rasengan or some shit. |
| I personally don't like it unless it's a comedy. |
| Just need to find out how to quote this every time so I can dodge the stupid 30-character limit. |

 Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |
| I don't like it in most series, while it's great and necessary in a mon series like Pokemon, other shows like Yu-Gi-Oh is where it becomes unnecessary, just say whatever monster you're attacking with to attack whatever monster you're targeting or say direct attack or something of the sort if attacking your opponent directly, no move names necessary. |
 |
| I think it's pretty stupid. |
| So instead of saying "the G gundam just performed a sekiha tenkyoken and finished his opponent off with the God finger", we'd say "the G Gundam just did that move where he does a ton of shit and shoots a fireball or some crap and then stabbed his opponent with his orange arm." That would make for great fan discussion. |

| Shouting attack names is one of the reasons a Shounen fight anime could never be 10/10 or be taken seriously. It's a plot break. Consider a villain, who instead of impaling the hero, goes on a rant a declares his attacks before he attacks. What's also distracting is when, for example in Kuroko no Basket, different characters simultaneously name another character's attack based on the same analogy and end up with the same name (e.g. Hawk's Eye). |

| well screaming when you are doing something physically demanding can actually help. like in tennis or something. so its not impossible to imagine that there could be some crazy martial arts science behind screaming the name of the attack you are using. |

| I personally think that it's one of the dumbest fucking things ever. It seriously makes me fucking cringe, and is quite honestly why anime is often looked down upon as fucking childish. It's just nerdy as all fuck, and makes me think of like, fucking 4 year olds playing in a sandbox. |

| I don't have much of a problem when they shout attack names in battle shounen's as that is pretty much expected.. but if I'm ever watching a half-way mature anime and this happens I can't help but feel embarrassed. But cmon who didn't shout KAMEHAMEHAAAA during some point in their childhood while watching DBZ? |

| I don't really like it. I mean just firing a Getsuga Tenshou is way more cooler than firing ti while shouting it's name. One of the reasons i like Raildex because it doesn't have this trope. |

| I honestly don't even notice it anymore, so it doesn't act a plot break like someone said here. Battle manga and especially their anime adaptions are aimed mostly at kids and young teens and they love that, I don't see the problem. The name calling exists on super hero comics too, it's not exclusive to anime/manga. |

| They have an orgasm everytime they use their attacks is why. |

| As long as the enemy doesn't take advantage of it, it's fine with me. Don't mind it at all. Making an attack name is defining the move and making it easier to recognize. Fights where no one talks and they are just fighting fast kicks and punches like in Dragonball Z would be boring. |

| Its like shouting "jab! jab! Cross! Low Kick!" when you fight irl. The only thing it might actually achieve is make your opponent think you're cray cray. Battle cry's on the other hand is a totally viable thing that boosts morale and scare your enemies and we have evidence that it was a big part in pre-modern battles. |

| Calling your attacks only works in card games: "Blue-eyes, attack his life points directly with white lightning!" or maybe it could work in Pokemon, but that is for kids I don't watch it. |

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
| Starliiiiiight Breaaakeer! I dunno if this has anything to do with attack calling, but in Kendo you have to shout out loud your target on opponent body or it wouldn't get a point when it hits. |

| The most important things in life is the people that you care about |
| Hangetsu, saying it how it is. It's also both hilarious AND effective if you shout what you're going to do and then so something ELSE, as proven later in that manga. |
| The thing is if you know when to "shout" you get better breathing when you actually try to hit something, it doesn't have to be a name or a phrase though. So yeah, it depends from the point of view, I don't see it as childish, sometimes when they name their attacks it actually sounds cool when it fits. A certain hit accompanied by naming the attack either in your mind or aloud is awesome. |

| It just sounds stupid in English, that's all. Nobody does that in a real fight but it's pretty cool shit in the Asian culture. Even Bruce Lee did it in his movies. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ao8dVIFagzw |
| Shouting attack names is stupid and exaggerated unless it is done to warn one's allies to dodge the attack, like "GRENAAAADE!!!!" |
| Why the fuck not? Voice actors in battle shounen also want to get paid, I bet it's their lobbyists at work. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |

| I can't say I love it but I don't hate it either(though it is kinda stupid ;P ). |
