Anime Drink-a-long-a-'nime

[Raiyuu]

[ Inspired by a long-forgotten discussion with Dagger and Fasteriskhead, in the similarly long-forgotten [thread=55418][u]Pumpkin Scissors thread[/u][/thread]. ]

We all like anime here, right? (I know it's not cool to like anime on OB anymore but I figure I'm safe in the Anime Lounge.) And at least some of us like drinking here, right? Put the two together; it's a combination that can't fail!

Actually this game should be fun enough if you don't drink, because the basis for it is thinking about anime series and the events, catchphrases or jokes that typify them. Here's how it works.

[indent]1. Pick an anime series. Preferably one you know well.
2. Pick out a few things that happen often in the series. The sort of things that, if you took a gulp of beer every time they happened, would get you wasted in short order.
3. Turn your musings into a set of drinking game rules. So things that happen every couple of minutes get a sip, things that happen once per series or are particularly shocking rate a chug, and so on. You can see what I mean in the Pumpkin Scissors thread (linked above) and in the example below.[/indent]

The idea of this isn't to promote alcoholism in young people or anything, it's just to have a giggle sending up your favourite (or least favourite) series. Remember to spoiler anything that needs spoilering!

Here's an example based on Death Note:

[indent]-when Ryuk eats an apple, sip.
-when someone writes a name in a Death Note, sip.
-when the picture switches into false-colour (i.e. Light in red, L in blue), sip.
-when L eats something sweet, sip.
-when something happens much more dramatically than it needs to, chug. (I'm thinking [spoiler]episode one writing scene[/spoiler], [spoiler]potato chip scene[/spoiler], L and his lightning phone-switching skills, etc.)
-when a Death Note user loses or regains all their memories of the Death Note, chug.
-when anyone makes the deal for the Shinigami Eyes, down half your drink. (See what I did there?)
-when any major character falls victim to a Death Note, finish your drink in salutation.
-when everything goes "just as planned", finish your drink in recognition of Light's genius.[/indent]

If you're a fan of Death Note feel free to add new rules to my game, otherwise start your own - see if we can't build a definitive Anime Drinking Game Encyclopedia.

Ummmm, I don't think this kind of thread is healthy for the younger people so you should be more careful, but your drinking game idea sounds fun.

It's just a fun poker. Besides, Raiyuu was(?) a mod. He knows what he's doing. Anyway:

Naruto:
-sip for every "Next Hokage!", "Believe it!" or "SHARINGAN!"
-swig for every horrid theme song (there's 3 good ones in the entire series.)
-Down one in memory of every deceased character.
-drink 3 days' worth in 3 seconds every time Itachi does his thing.
-finally, get MORE wasted than Lee whenever he uses Drunken Fist.
(You don't need beer. I did this with orange soda every time Jen from Big Brother used a pronoun that refers to herself. I nearly got waterlogged.)
