The absolute highlight is how genuinely invested Cr1tikal is in Yasha's whole arc. He's actually blown away when he sees Yasha take the first blow like a champ.
this was before power slap when charlie decided to act like he didnt like slapping since everyone was shitting on power slap, and he hasnt uploaded a vid about it since :(
7:24 This big guy has an interesting story. His real name is Denis Vildanov(in this video he mentioned as Papa). Before slap fights, he was a professional strongman and also play Football as a Nose-tackle/Offensive Lineman for his local team in Russian Championship.
@@ShoneDaddy that's also in interesting story. They don't compete against each other in slapping. However, they have proper fist fight. In Russia, there is a promotion called "Punch Club". So, they have a fight as a main event there. Link down below(timing 28:06): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FMJlMPxyWrg.html
I knew a guy whos wrestling record in High School was around 205-10, state champion, etc and he told me when he went to college, the wrestlers would always challenge other athletes to a wrestling match and would kick their butts., but he learned to “stay away from the swimmers, they have a lot of core and radial strength” which always stuck with me. Probably a lot to be said in this case for people who deprive themselves of oxygen regularly in order to go faster being able to take a hit and lose oxygen input to their head
Swimmers are no joke. I knew a girl when I was in highschool and she was on the varsity swim team, she had better abs than half the dudes in my school. You would’ve been better off punching a wall than trying to gut punch her lmao
I have a feeling that Misha would be deadly in an unarmed street fight. If he can nearly topple a 450 lbs man with a slap, imagine what would happen if he decide to actually punch a dude. And judging by his flinch, he does have really strong instincts to dodge. Even if he is hit, he shrugged off blows from Papa. So he hits hard, can still move enough to weave, and can take it if you do manage to tag him. That's a pretty deadly combo if you ask me.
I love the fact that they introduced a villain archtype just to him get slapped the soul out by an silent outsider. Pretty amazing turn around. 10/10 anime.
Looking back this was one of the best seasons. Sergei the villain from last season against new blood ready to kill with papa. Vasily slapping Jesus himself and the schoolboy proving his spot amongst gods. Misha the dark horse showing papa ain’t the only new blood out here. Fucking epic
It's gonna turn out that Papa is a childhood friend of Vassili's and they made a childhood promise to duel each other for the championship atop Mt. Slap.
wtf i was skipping that part because i tought vasily was trolling and only litghtly touching yasha and now i come to see the comments that he really was using full power
If I was Sergei and saw Denis walk up, I honestly think I'd forfeit and leave. The dude's got arms like tree trunks and hands like grizzly paws. He looks like a circus strongman that'd lift giant ball-ended dumbells and bend iron bars like taffy. I'd be worried he'd slap my skull apart.
I just can't wait for the last episode where some legend ends Vasilly's whole career. The only reason I keep watching critikal is to see the fall of a giant.
They'll hear tales of his father's slaps creating ripples across the Earth causing tsunamis worldwide and mountains to be annihilated. Realms to other worlds will be open because of his slap forging gateways and bending time itself.
ok the power scaling of this anime is getting ridiculous at this point i mean we all know at the end of the season Mischa is getting a new transformation
Nah, Vassili is going to get a new transformation. I think Mischa might become the next antagonist, and Papa and Vassili will have to team up to take him down
Yeah he took the hits well. Idk how he would've fared with a heavyweight swing from Vasily but my hats off to him. I would've gone In there and slapped him as hard as I could which would've made him slap me into the shadow realm
@MUFC greatest sport is subjective. Maybe to you and others but not to everyone. It's OK to love Futbol but that doesn't mean it's shared by others. I also doubt it'll be the biggest sport in the USA considering hockey is more popular than futbol over there.
So Papa was the distraction and Mischa is actually the final boss, I love that twist ending. And i'm glad Sergei's arc ended ,don't get me wrong he was a great Season 1 villain, but over the course of the episodes he started to seem a bit irrelevant to the overall plot.
Checking newer videos from what we're watching here with Papa in them, absolutely. Vassili is like country boy, hard working farm worker kind of thick but Papa, I saw shit from him in the gym and the way he can move at HIS size is damn near terrifying. Aside from being able to lift a fuck ton, he boxes for cardio. And considering his 487lbs I think was the most current weight I saw, dude moves like a damn freight train.
I see Vassili vs Papa in a titanic slap fight where Vassili wins in the home stretch, they end up hating each other but then are required to grudgingly team up when Vassili's origins are revealed: he's actually an extraterrestrial being, sent to the Earth to slap dinosaurs to extinction, which he did, but then lost all memory of it. His race of Space Bear-Human hybrids is now trying to claim the planet, but Vassili now considers himself an earthling, and he and Papa and Mischa will represent Earth in the Ultimate Intergalactic Slapping Tournament.
Who wouldnt get his jaw dropped from a knockout like this. A fighter looking with open mouth because he sees one of his getting KOed by a guy doesn't mean he is afraid.
"Slapping celebrities are now bigger than a lot of sports celebrities. At least at terms of internet recognition", - well, that aged very well my dudes
Okay so I think I've got it all figured out: Vasily is strong in defense, and even stronger in offense, but usually holds back for his opponents, as he does not want to unleash his full power. This new guy Papa is like 5x stronger than Vasily in offense, but has shit defensive, leaving him prone to Vasily's attacks. So when it all comes down to the battle, if Vasily strikes first, he may just win. If he strikes second, and Papa has the upper hand, Vasily has the potential of being knocked into oblivion.
MrSlanderer Vasily is one of the old fashioned Russian slappers through training & meditation. Since the rest of Russia knows he can’t be surpassed by natural means, they’ve turned to test tube slappers
