| FINALLY SOME GOOD FUCKING FOOD |
 |
| Fun fact, this series takes place in the same universe as Kengan Ashura since the author for both series is the same person. Akemi is the little sister of Shion. Kind of hilarious given how different the two series are. |
| I've been reading the manga for a while now and was curious to see that this got adapted. But booy, did they do a good job with this. It's sooo much more fun seeing it animated. Sleeper hit of the season!! Hibiki just has that perfect blend of cute gyaruness and thicness that I haven't seen since Galko-Chan Edit: LOL at the ED: Macho, machio.... |

| Finally a Doga Kobo i can enjoy since quite a while |
| Right off the bat, I noticed that this show has good faces. "An expanding waistline means no boyfriend." I disagree, in 2019 there is a huge market for THICC girls. 35% body fat is definitely no bueno. The OP is WAAAAY better than it deserves to be. I was half expecting Soryuin to walk over and just say she owns the gym. I love how much effort they put into the dude's weightlifting. Soryuin's reactions feel like they came straight out of hentai. She has a muscle fetish. Brilliant. I love how they turned this into an edutainment show halfway through. Machio was giving pretty solid advice for bench pressing. That was about how well my first bench press went. "I was only able to press 100kg at first. Man, was that frustrating!" Fuck off, man. Hearing Iida say "SIDO CHESTO" brought new meaning to my life. Eventually, Hibiki will have to learn that you can't outrun a bad diet, and her diet is awful. Good squat form. Hibiki is so perverse. I love it. |
| What funny and what beautiful girls, I loved it the chibi ending <3 |
 |
| The bad form really shines through in the animation, you can tell the animators never worked out a day in their life, the failing to stand up after a squat and the lack of ROM on the bench press. muh autism!!! I don't like that they went the education route instead of the comedy route which is what the manga took and then gave you some shitty untrue dyel advice every other chapter. I hope no anime nerds see this and start coming into the gym wearing ahegao shirts and doing a butt routine in the mirror of the power cage without using the bar Also the OP and ED sucked they completely didnt capture the essence of what the bear was trying to do with the manga.. Also mega lol at the salty fatties getting mad because they are fatter than the main character and don't do anything about it except cope. |

Everyone starts with bad form. Just be mindful about it, do the research, and one's form will be better with practice. |

I don't care if you try to do something especially when it actively gets in my way by taking a rack. Only reddit dyels think a we're all this together kind of feeling because they aren't strong, they don't look good, they are weak and need someone else to prop them up because their in tears every time they look at their dyel body. I've way surpassed that. |
|
| After how disappointing your last show was for me, I'm all yours again Doga Kobo. This is amazing! I fucking love Souryuuin!!!  Hibiki's remarks and 4th wall breaks were great. I love her too!  And I agree with Hibiki about Machio's photosheped body lmao So yeah, between the characters, the comedy and the fanservice, I'm pretty sure this will be one of my favorite shows of the season. |
Jaguar-chan said: I genuinely genuinely love this show. It's better and more creatively animated than 95 percent of ecchi, it has an incredibly catchy OP and ED, incredibly charismatic characters, and just pure charm in its presentation of actual workout advice. If the show keeps this up, I will give it a 9/10. It goes to show how great ecchi and fanservice can be when its not just lazily used to pander and indulge the audience's fantasies. Dumbbell definitely gets it right by being a well made, sexy, fun, and somewhat educational show that you just know will inspire at least some weebs to go out and improve themselves. And thats a lot more than what you can say for not just ecchi shows, but most anime in general. |
| Doga Kobo delivers yet again. Hibiki is my spirit animal. I think her current thiccness is perfect though, enough meat to still look sexy but not obese. So I am kinda baffled why she needs to lose weight. I have some Japanese coworkers and I am pretty sure I could lift them easily so...their definiton of "healthy" weight must really differ lol. |
| Didn't expect it to be educational as well. And the ecchi moments are very well made. Totally will watch |
 |
| It's much less fanservicey than I thought. And omg, can people in this thread stop all those imaginery "SJW" straw men? The only reason why there is a perceived prevalence of those shits is because people who are doped enough to take clickbait titles seriously and help news media earning easy revenue from sparking "controversy". And how many of those articles are alt-right parody? Should you shame fat people? No. Can you enjoy this anime about fitness? Yes. Pure and simple. If you insist on shaming fat people instead of minding your own business because "I hAte sJw SHit", then shame on you. |
 |
| This show is funny as fuck but their form is atrocious |
| Oh god who are you people? |
| Now this is my kinda animu *sips mountain dew* |
"Whether doing good or evil, I will be the boss." |
| This exceeded my expectation, I loved it, so funny. |
| This was so much better than I ever thought it would be. Opening is incredibly catchy. Animation is pretty nice and I especially love the comedy. Hibiki and Akemi's reaction faces were gold! I am hooked on this already! |

Kind of hilarious given how different the two series are. Are you friggin serious lol.. Haven't read that manga yet but I'm a huge Baki fan.. So, there's a high chance I might like it.. Really funny thinking it's in the same universe.. 🤣 The funny thing is that these two manga even have canon crossover chapters, lol. @El_Caguai Machio is the obvious best girl on this show, how can you not understand it?! |
 |
| I think this anime is trying to tell me something that we should exercise more and I'm starting to believe it's working. Especially when we have Aqua / Sora Amamiya telling us she likes muscles. It's time to get as buffed as a Jobro! |

Why is J.C.Staff on end credits? |
| Jabami Soruyin with muscle fetish XD. This show is too op catchy. Machio shines too bright. |
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because. |
| It was funny and it looks pretty good so this is definitely getting watched |
| “I love heroes, but I don't want to be one. Do you even know what a hero is!? For example, you have some meat. Pirates will feast on the meat, but the hero will distribute it among the people! I want to eat the meat!” - Monkey D. Luffy |
| This was a really good first episode! I was expecting a 12 minute episode with sub-par animation, but we got way more than that. I love the main character a lot as well. Hope it stays good. |

| Btw, wtf is "abdominal pressure" in this episode? I know that your belly works as stabilizer during bench press but how does that have anything to do with it? |
| [quote=QPR message=57899166]I can see the femnazis getting their boxers in a twist about this because it's about an overweight girl getting fit. The SJW nation would rather people die prematurely from fat related disease than someone hurt their feelings and tell them to shape up. This. |
| That was even better than I expected it to be cause the main girl kept doing such cute faces and they had a lot of comedy. I didn't even notice it was made by Doga Kobo, they never disappoint. By the way that opening was awesome. |
It's only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. |
Kamiyan3991 said: Btw, wtf is "abdominal pressure" in this episode? I know that your belly works as stabilizer during bench press but how does that have anything to do with it? In order to achieve better stabilisation you have to contract the abdominal area. I think that's what they mean with pressure. Also lol @ all the moral faggery just because a teenage girl wants to lose some weight. Btw, how much someone weights by itself it doesn't say much. She's is at 35% bodyfat, so she obviously has a bad fat to muscle ratio that is far from an ideal body composition. You have also to take into account that the rate of obese people is lower in Japan, so chubby or slightly chubby people get self-conscicous more quickly. And to the form police, remember, heavy and wrong over moderate and proper. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Man those guys have Baki level muscles lmao |
 |
| Hum, Hibiki is like my female version, I should actually imitate her by doing sport again eheh |
