The Bloodily Roaring Rampaging Aftermath

The Bloodily Roaring Rampaging Aftermath

October 11, 2023 in Uncategorized

This piece of Basuli x Hercules x Tarzan or Basculeszan fan art, which is my submission for this year’s Drawtober is dedicated to all the shippers of Basuli x Hercules x Tarzan and to those who fancy Basuli and Tarzan to be the wild, musclebound, feral African jungle brothers they are while giving each other a brutal beatdown, with their darling musclebound hunk of a Greek demigod husband Hercules acting as the bodybuilder master of ceremonies. Sit back, relax, and revel in the brutality that Basuli and Tarzan thoroughly inflicted on each other and the vampirish way that they show intimate affection toward Hercules.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is the result of having Basuli and Tarzan being involved in a ferally no-holds-barred fighting match that mixes Pankration, Ancient Greek Boxing, Ancient Greek Wrestling, Vale Tudo, Luta Livre, Hardcore Wrestling, and Hardcore Boxing, thus constituting these two jungle brothers’ hybrid martial arts. They receive gashes, bruises, blackeyes, claw marks, fang marks, bleeding foreheads, bloodied elbows, bloodied fists, and a whole lot of animalistic frenzy brewing in them. While it is true that neither Basuli nor Tarzan can be tamed when going feral against each other, it takes the majestic muscles of their handsome demigod husband, Hercules, to tantalize the two wild jungle brothers. All he has to do is take off his maple leaf protective cover and flex his bulging muscles for Basuli and Tarzan to adore him, touch his muscles, and kiss him all over his beautifully sculpted body. At least Basuli and Tarzan can take pleasure in knowing that they can have their intimate evening with Hercules once the audience departs from the arena and be soothed by their favorite demigod for life.

After several rounds and hours of Basuli and Tarzan barraging each other with uppercuts, back fists, liver punches, hooks, jabs, cross punches, double axe handles, hammer fists, headbutts, bearhugs, camel clutches, armbars, piledrivers, body slams as well as various bites and slashes to the neck, chest, biceps, forearms, thighs, calves, and pecs, the two jungle brothers are savagely bruised, bloodied, and gashed from head to toe. They first fall unconsciously to the ground due to all of the eviscerating pain they have inflicted on each other. However, they arise after a while to face each other in a delirious state. Although delirious, both Basuli and Tarzan are cackling with menacingly feral glee with bloodstained grins gushing from their fangs to their mouths to their lips.

Basuli: You know what, dearest brother? I really enjoyed massacring your muscular body. Look at all the damage I have done.

Tarzan: Same here, o magnificent brother of mine. Bashing and thrashing your muscle-bound body to bits gives me a lot of pleasure.

Basuli: I think we can agree on one thing.

Tarzan: Yes, I do know what you’re thinking.

Basuli: Fighting gives us vigor!

Tarzan: Fighting gives us vitality!

Basuli and Tarzan: Fighting is more exciting than sex!

Basuli and Tarzan approach each other and flex their magnificently bulging biceps for the crowd to see. The Leopard Men of Opar continue to roar as loudly as ever, while the Waziri warriors continue to yell and cheer just as loudly as the Leopard Men.

Basuli: Do you hear that, little brother?

Tarzan: Oh, yes, big brother.

Basuli: Let’s give them one last show.

Tarzan: Yeah, I agree.

Basuli and Tarzan lower their arms, approach each other even closer, and envelop each other in a suffocating bear hug.

Basuli: Is that tight enough for you?

Tarzan: I’ll make it tighter.

Basuli and Tarzan tighten their bearhugs, open their mouths wide open, and bite each other on the neck. Hercules is astonished at the vicious sight.

Hercules: These two jungle warrior brothers don’t stop, do they?

Hercules takes off his maple leaf protective cup, approaches the two biting jungle brothers, and flexes his bulging biceps at them. Basuli and Tarzan release each other from their bites, as they gaze at their husband’s magnificently muscular body. The Leopard Men and the Waziri warriors are just as astounded to witness Hercules in the gloriously muscular nude.

Hercules: All right, sweeties, I think you had enough carnage for one day.

Basuli and Tarzan: Wow….Your wish is our command, wonder man.

Basuli and Tarzan continue to gaze hypnotically at Hercules doing his naked bodybuilding posedown routine.

Basuli: Shall we, brother?

Tarzan: You know it, brother.

Basuli and Tarzan approach Hercules like two beasts beckoning at their master’s call. The two jungle brothers sinuously their demigod husband’s muscular body and smear him with the blood they have acquired from each other.

Hercules: You darlings know you can never resist me, right?

Basuli: Not in a million years, honey.

Tarzan: We wouldn’t dream of it, sweetheart.

Hercules flexes his biceps, as both Basuli and Tarzan kiss them. After that, Hercules wraps his arms around Basuli and Tarzan, as the two jungle brothers kiss him on the forehead, cheeks, abs, obliques, forearms, elbows, triceps, calves, knees, and buttocks. Basuli and Tarzan even draw heart signs on Hercules’s chest with their bloodied claws. The Leopard Men and Waziri warriors cheer and wolf-whistle at the sinuous sight of Basuli and Tarzan having their sexy moment with Hercules.

Hercules: What do you say we lovelies continue our little session in our chambers now that I’ve gotten you to simmer down?

Basuli and Tarzan glance at each other and nod in agreement with a small smile on their bloodied and bruised faces.

Basuli: As you wish, glorious warrior.

Tarzan: You can always tantalize us, handsome king.

Hercules: Sure, my precious honeybees, let’s go.

Hercules, Basuli, and Tarzan arise from the ground and turn their attention toward the spectators.

Hercules: Esteemed spectators, I hope you all enjoyed the show.

Basuli: See you in the next spectacle.

Tarzan: Until then, stay safe and well.

Hercules, Basuli, and Tarzan depart the arena, as the Leopard Men and Waziri warriors applaud.

That was invigorating. I hope you all enjoyed this, and I will see you in the next submission. Take care, stay safe, and don’t attempt the same brutal fighting style that Basuli and Tarzan practice, everybody.

Hercules, Basuli, and Tarzan from Hercules and Tarzan belong to Disney and Edgar Rice Burroughs.

Let’s Get Ready to Roar and Rumble

Let’s Get Ready to Roar and Rumble

October 10, 2023 in Uncategorized

The arena gate opens, and Hercules enters the arena, roars like a mighty lion, and beats his chest as if he were a ferocious beast. The crowd cheers loudly, as Hercules then does his bodybuilding posedown routine by doing the crab-style most muscular pose, side lats, lats spread, making his pectorals bounce, double front biceps, and double back biceps.

Hercules: Esteemed guests! Welcome to the epic Pankration fight between two powerful jungle warrior brothers and my two dearest husbands, Basuli and Tarzan!

The Leopard Men of Opar roar and snarl loudly.

Hercules (flexing his left bicep): On the left corner, the jungle warrior is known for his great big muscles, unbreakable code of honor, and amazing toughness, give it up for Basuli!

Basuli charges out of the arena gate, unleashes an earth-shattering lion’s roar, beats his handsomely muscled chest while letting out his signature jungle man yell, and flexes his tremendous biceps.

Hercules (flexing his right bicep): On the right corner, the jungle warrior renowned for his fierce ferociousness, lethal deadliness, and the type of fighter that you don’t want to mess with, give it up for Tarzan!

Tarzan also charges out of the arena gate, unleashes a huge lion’s roar, beats his handsomely muscled chest while letting out his signature jungle man yell, and flexes his tremendous biceps.

Hercules: So, Basuli, are you ready?

Basuli roars at Hercules.

Basuli: Yes, Hercules, I am ready to smite this competition with all I have!

Hercules: Right on! And you, Tarzan, are you ready?

Tarzan roars at Hercules.

Tarzan: I am ready, Hercules! Ready to crush!

Basuli: Not if I crush you first, brother!

Basuli and Tarzan do the crab-style version of the most muscular pose, as they snarl at each other like tigers on the prowl.

Hercules: That’s the spirit! Now, let’s get ready to rumble and roar!!!!

Hercules, Basuli, and Tarzan turn to the crowd and roar as loudly as they can. Their roars can even make lions, leopards, tigers, gorillas, bears, Tyrannosaurus rexes, and jaguars mad with envy. Accompanying their mighty roars are Hercules, Basuli, and Tarzan flexing their magnificently tremendous biceps at the crowd. After that display, Basuli and Tarzan have a stare-down and snarl at each other.

Hercules (flexing his muscles): All right, jungle warriors, ready! Set! Go!

Basuli and Tarzan charge at each other, bite each other’s necks, shoulders, and arms; slash each other’s chests and stomachs with their claws, and give each other a bevy of uppercuts, liver punches, double axe handles, chokeholds, jabs, body slams, piledrivers, bearhugs, leglocks, armlocks, cross punches, rabbit punches, hooks, and tracheal grip chokes. As the battle surges, Hercules continues to provide commentary while doing his bodybuilding posedown routine.

There you have it, ladies and gentlemen. This is feral virility and beastly muscularity incarnate with Basuli and Tarzan ramming at each other with their muscles, fists, radical wrestling moves, and wild animal instincts and Hercules joining in the beastly virility. I hope you all enjoyed this, and I will see you in the next submission. Take care, stay safe, and fight strong just like Basuli, Hercules, and Tarzan, everybody.

This piece of Kaito fan art, which is my twenty-second submission for this year’s 30 Days of InuAya Month last April, is dedicated to all of the wonderful Inuyasha x Ayame shippers worldwide as well as the people who want to see what their children would look like.

The Vale Tudo ring is filled again with a throng of fans’ cheers and cries when Kaito makes his entrance. Just like his dearest brother Kazuhiko, he also dons a crimson speedo made from a demon lion’s mane to accentuate his handsomeness and strength, which means that the female fans also ogle at Kaito and Kazuhiko together. Kaito also combines muscular brawn, barbaric fighting techniques, and abundant psychological focus to triumph against stronger opponents. As a child, he and his brothers trained in Ancient Greek Boxing, Shoot Boxing, Pankration, Combat Sambo, Shoot Wrestling, Vale Tudo, and Luta Livre Esportiva with their father. He joins Kazuhiko in looking up to Masataka’s, Masaya’s, and Masaru’s fighting spirit plus Kenta’s and Keita’s magnificent muscles to the point where they want to be as strong as they are. Kaito also has liver punches, hammer fists, leglocks, and armlocks galore to make his opponents never underestimate him. With that said, let us get acquainted with the second-born third-eldest InuAya twin son whose fortitude, resilience, handsomeness, and strength know no boundaries.

He attacks with brutality, strength, leverage, and precision, thus ensuring harmony between timing and power. Moreover, he makes it a habit with Kazuhiko to work out, lift weights heavier than they are, and train intensively to achieve magnificent muscularity as Vale Tudo combatants and men’s fitness models while giving Romulus and Remus a run for their money. Kaito unconditionally cherishes Kazuhiko because they share a lot in common from being there for their families to competing together in tournaments. When not fighting alongside his brother in various tournaments, he revels in intimate moments with Katsuho and spending time with his family.

He proves to be more than just a handsome face in terms of inheriting his father’s features and his mother’s eye color, as he possesses combat techniques rich in brutality, leverage, focus, and strength. To master these techniques and maintain magnificent muscularity, he and Kaito make it a habit to work out, train, and lift weights heavier than they are, thus also giving Romulus and Remus a run for their money when it comes to super twin power. Kazuhiko cherishes Kaito body and soul as his twin brother and best friend for life because they share a lot in common and also do their duties in protecting their families and friends from harm. When not fighting alongside his brother in various tournaments, he revels in intimate moments with Kokoro and spends quality time with his family.

I hope you all enjoyed this look into the first of Inuyasha’s and Ayame’s younger twin sons. I will see you in the next submission where I deal with the second of their younger twin sons also renowned for his skills in Vale Tudo and Ancient Greek Boxing while also having just as much fortune in being a bodybuilder and men’s fitness model.

Kenta the Musclebound Kapu Kuialua Bodybuilder

September 29, 2023 in The Splendid Seven

This piece of Kenta fan art, which is my nineteenth submission for this year’s 30 Days of InuAya Month last April, is dedicated to all of the wonderful Inuyasha x Ayame shippers worldwide as well as the people who want to see what their children would look like. Sit back, relax, and fancy yourselves in Kenta’s muscular manliness as a champion in Kapu Kuialua with a background in Ancient Greek Wrestling, Shoot Wrestling, Pankration, and Ssireum, possessing equally great records in weightlifting and bodybuilding, as well as Inuyasha’s and Ayame’s first-born twin son plus overall fourth-born child.

The bodybuilding stage enthusiastically cheers for Kenta when he makes his appearance and flexes his beautifully bulging muscles to the audience. He only dons a protective cup made from a demon lion’s mane to emphasize that he is not one muscleman to retreat from battle, thus giving his enemies the punishing pounding that they deserve. Kenta’s musclebound manliness is only coupled with his super strength, formidable fortitude, and victorious virility to crush the competition and emerge triumphant as a wrestler skilled in grappling techniques and a bodybuilder. Since childhood, he and his dear brother Keita trained in Ancient Greek Wrestling, Ssireum, Professional Wrestling, Pankration, Vale Tudo, Combat Sambo, Shoot Wrestling, and Ancient Greek Boxing with their father. Kenta has all the bearhugs, sharpshooters, camel clutches, and tracheal grip chokes to crush their opponents to fine dust and reduce them to cowards. With that said, let us get acquainted with the first-born and second-eldest InuAya twin son whose manliness, intrepidness, formidability, and rough-and-tumble personality are legendary.

Kenta loves his close brotherhood with Keita because they can work superbly well together as bodybuilders, wrestlers, and brothers who can give Castor and Pollux a run for their money. Thanks to Kenta’s magnificent muscles and formidable fortitude, he can win the competition in Kapu Kuialua, Pankration, Ssireum, bodybuilding, and weightlifting. He is also a caring family man loyal to his wife Sayaka and fiercely protective of his fourteen children to ensure they grow up well.

I will see you in the next submission where I deal with the second of their twin sons who is not only known for using his magnificent muscles as a bodybuilder and a wrestler but also has an extremely close brotherly relationship with his dearest brother Kenta. Take care, stay safe, and remember to train hard and well in Kapu Kuialua, everybody.

Kenta belongs to me.

A Competition’s Virile Appeal

A Competition’s Virile Appeal

September 28, 2023 in The Splendid Seven

This piece of Inuyasha and Raymond fan art, with hints of Inuyasha x Ayame or InuAya and Raymond x Alex or Raylex, is dedicated to everybody who fancies Inuyasha’s and Raymond’s virile brotherhood and overall bromance, with their wives Ayame and Alex being supportive of them as best friends for life. Sit back, relax, and revel in Inuyasha and Raymond unleashing their manly muscles on each other in Ancient Greek Martial Arts, specifically wrestling and Pankration, with their wives fancying their nude, muscular bodies while they are fighting.

41-year-old Inuyasha and 40 going on 41-year-old Raymond are handsomely muscular men who revel in competition and demonstrate their mighty strength to each other. There is a reason why they are also best friends, brothers from other mothers, and the strongest of platonic partners because they see the best in each other and encourage each other to reach the higher ground in their lives as combatants, bodybuilders, and people. Given that Inuyasha’s main martial art is Pankration and Raymond’s main martial art is Ancient Greek Wrestling, they would do as the Ancient Greek athletes do. Strip down naked, rub each other in olive oil, and have a beatdown to the death. Accompanying all the muscle-flexing, bearhugs, hammer fists, double axe handles, submission holds, small joint manipulations, and borderline titillating homoeroticism between two musclemen are their respective wives, 38-year-old Ayame and 36 going on 37-year-old Alex, hypnotized by their husbands’ muscular buddies. It also helps that the two ladies are giggling at each other and telling each other how handsome their husbands are akin to Heracles and Theseus, all while Inuyasha and Raymond are flexing their magnificent muscles and attempting to conquer each other in a combination of Ancient Greek Wrestling and Pankration. For these two musclemen and their wives, this is standard procedure.

I hope you all enjoyed this, and I shall see you in the next submission. Take care, stay safe, and please remember to support Inuyasha’s and Raymond’s epic bromance, everybody. #inunray forever.

Inuyasha and Ayame from Inuyasha belong to Rumiko Takahashi and Sunrise.

Raymond and Alex from Totally Spies belong to Vincent Chalvon-Demersay, David Michel, and Marathon Media.

Inu ‘n Ray Forever

Inu ‘n Ray Forever

September 27, 2023 in The Splendid Seven

This piece of Inuyasha and Raymond with hints of Inuyasha x Ayame and Raymond x Alex fan art is dedicated to those who revel in Inuyasha’s and Raymond’s brotherhood as well as their beautifully married lives with their respective wives Ayame and Alex. Sit back, relax, and revel in Inuyasha’s and Raymond’s adorable bromance with their wives being in high favor of it.

41-year-old Inuyasha and 40 going 41-year-old Raymond are not only the best of friends but also the dearest of brothers from other mothers. Their shared love for Pankration, bodybuilding, weightlifting, wrestling, and strongman competitions have kept them close for nearly nineteen years. Even their dearest wives, 38-year-old Ayame and 36 going on 37-year-old Alex, support their endearing brotherhood and find it absolutely adorable. Inuyasha appreciates Raymond for his kind, tender, earnest heart under his magnificently marbled muscles, while Raymond appreciates Inuyasha for his fortitude, persistence, and strength as great fighter traits. Together, they have learned a lot from each other, with Inuyasha appreciating Raymond’s craftsmanship as a bodybuilder and Raymond having a go at Inuyasha’s main martial art Pankration. Therefore, they have remained inseparable.

My main inspiration for this picture is Jason David Frank and Jason Faunt hugging each other in one of their pictures together. I have made it clear that Inuyasha and Raymond would have a brotherhood akin to Hanshi Frank’s and Coach Faunt’s in real life, thanks to how close they are and how much they can learn from each other in their respective fields. With that said, here is the picture for reference.

Martial Arts Anime Training for Dudley and Daisy

September 24, 2023 in The Splendid Seven

Greetings, anime fans, martial arts aficionados, fighting game devotees, and enthusiasts of all things about anime, martial arts, video games, and fighting tournaments. Antoni here with another written entry. As a follow-up to my previous post regarding my fourteen seven-person anime martial arts team-ups, I thought it would be nice to feature an idea born out of my good friend, Jeffrey Quick aka Ginga1122. He has been wanting his OTP Dudley and Daisy from the 2010 Nickelodeon cartoon T.U.F.F. Puppy to be featured in my anime martial arts AU headcanon consisting of fourteen teams of seven anime characters each possessing different combat styles. Well, Jeff, your wish has come true. Mind you, I have also put Dudley’s and Daisy’s human ages on show. As for the martial arts, they will learn from each group, they will be divided into weeks and sorted according to the individual signature techniques they will learn per anime martial artist. Enjoy.
 
Tokyo, Japan. May 17, 2014, which was the date that “Girlfriend or Foe?” aired on Nicktoons Network. 26-year-old Dudley Puppy and his 24-year-old wife Daisy Spaniel-Puppy were enthusiastic to set foot in Tokyo for fourteen weeks of total martial arts immersion. Joining them were their seven children: 4-year-old twin sons Damien Callum Puppy and Darren Carlton Puppy, 3-year-old triplet sons Dennis Edward Puppy, David Elmer Puppy, and Devon Ezekiel Puppy; and 2-year-old twin daughters Dorothy Grace Puppy and Dominique Glory Puppy. The Puppy family set into their new apartment with their bags unpacked and itineraries ready for fourteen weeks of intense martial arts training. Damien, Darren, Dennis, David, Devon, Dorothy, and Dominique were still very young toddlers trying out what their parents were about to get themselves into. Nevertheless, they were about to soak in new skills that would help them grow into the valiant fighters that their parents were.
 
Dudley and Daisy, given their occupations of working as agents and combat specialists for the Turbo Undercover Fighting Force or T.U.F.F. for short, saw in their little children’s eyes that they were just as excited to learn the techniques that their parents were going to learn. Therefore, they agreed that their children needed to start out young for them to grow well as fighters. Time waited for nobody. Dudley and Daisy prepared themselves for some intense training, while their seven children were going to be as immersed as their parents were. The journey has just begun, learning various techniques and trying to remain in one piece.
 
Week 1- The Splendid Seven of Nerima: Feral Beasts Roar (Sesshoumaru, Shuran, Inuyasha, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran)
Dudley’s and Daisy’s first mentors were a septet of Yokai martial artists renowned for their feral brutality in international martial arts tournaments. They were excited to train under them, as their children also heard great stories of Sesshoumaru’s deadly chokes, Shuran’s brute strength, Inuyasha’s rampaging brawn, Hakkaku’s undying charm, Ginta’s unwavering charisma, Ayame’s determined fierceness, and Shunran’s gorgeous elegance. Their parents reminded them that they were famous for winning against opponents stronger than they were. One example was during the winter 2004 Austrian Alps martial arts tournament.
  • Day 1- Mixed Martial Arts with 33-year-old Sesshoumaru from Inuyasha (Kimuras)
  • Day 2- Professional Wrestling with 32-year-old Shuran from Inuyasha (piledrivers)
  • Day 3- Pankration with 32-year-old Inuyasha from Inuyasha (tracheal grip chokes)

  • Day 5- Lethwei with 31-year-old Ginta from Inuyasha (downward headbutts)
  • Day 6- Kyuk Too Ki with 29-year-old Ayame from Inuyasha (Superman punches)
  • Day 7- Shaolin Kung Fu with 28-year-old Shunran from Inuyasha (nerve strikes)
 
Week 2- The Radioactive Rebels of Shinjuku: Vicious Cyclones Cometh (Shido, Ban, Ginji, Kyuzo, Heihachi, Satella, and Akemi)
After dealing with an enormous number of thrashings from the seven Yokai warriors with attitude, it was off to Shinjuku to encounter Dudley’s and Daisy’s next set of mentors. If they thought that their previous training week was ferocious, the second week was going to be more lethally taxing. Shido Fuyuki, Ban Mido, and Ginji Amano were famous for trapping their opponents using various joint locks and chokeholds. Kyuzo and Heihachi Hayashida possessed lightning-fast kicks. Satella Harvenheit and Akemi Takaishi used their strikes as weapons of mass destruction. Dudley and Daisy would need stealth to endure this week.
  • Day 8- Japanese Jujutsu with 34-year-old Shido Fuyuki from GetBackers (guillotine chokes)
  • Day 9- Brazilian Jujitsu with 34-year-old Ban Mido from GetBackers (arm triangles)

  • Day 14- Shorinji Kenpo with 28-year-old Akemi Takaishi from Shootfighter Tekken (palm heel strikes)
 
Week 3- The Quicksilver Quantums of Adachi: Missiles on Fire (Masaru, Tatsuya, Ryuichi, Mario, Hiroto, Sakurako, and Kuniko)
The previous week went as fast as any of the chokeholds, kicks, and strikes that Dudley and Daisy endured. Their seven children still cheered for their parents and continued to be well-fed with the finest international cuisine that Tokyo had to offer. There was no time for rest, as Dudley and Daisy proceeded to visit martial arts mentors famous for their military precision. Tales were told of Masaru Aoki’s toughness, Tatsuya Kimura’s focus, Ryuichi Hayami’s accuracy, Mario Musicanova’s leverage, Hiroto Amagiwa’s maneuvering, Sakurako Yukihira’s directness, and Kuniko’s agility, and those tales came to full-fledged fruition.
  • Day 15- Kamogawa Mixed Martial Boxing with 32-year-old Masaru Aoki from Hajime no Ippo (uppercuts)
  • Day 16- Kamogawa Mixed Martial Boxing with 32-year-old Tatsuya Kimura from Hajime no Ippo (hooks)

Week 4- The War Emperors of Edogawa: Mandate Execution (Yoshiki, Mamoru, Kuranosuke, Tsume, Kisuke, Mitsuhide, and Shinosuke)
Dudley and Daisy grew in precision and accuracy with their attacks. Their seven children not only noticed their parents’ growth as fighters, but they were also involved in the family business of picking up new techniques. Now, the anthropomorphic dog couple encountered intimidating and virile champions who were about to give them lessons in overpowering muscle in Yoshiki Takaishi’s and Mamoru Takamura’s cases and commanding strength in Kuranosuke Takeda’s, Tsume’s, Kisuke’s, Mitsuhide Kuroda’s, and Shinosuke’s cases, especially where Kuranosuke, Kisuke, and Shinosuke demand commitment to the process.
  • Day 22- Kapu Kuialua with 34-year-old Yoshiki Takaishi from Shootfighter Tekken (bearhugs)
  • Day 23- Kamogawa Mixed Martial Boxing with 34-year-old Mamoru Takamura from Hajime no Ippo (liver punches)

Week 5- The Kings of Formidable Fists of Setogawa: Caged Muscles (Baki, Ryoma, Takeshi, Kiibo, Alexander, Ichiro, and Ippo)
The previous week’s sparring and training sessions were enough for Dudley’s and Daisy’s nerves to be as raw as fresh meat in a butcher’s shop, given all of the testosterone-laden attacks they had to endure. Even as they fed their children and cradled them to bed, they still felt so much pain. However, it was not over yet. Baki Hanma’s musclebound strength, Ryoma Sakamoto’s manly muscularity, Takeshi Sendo’s muscular toughness, Kiibo Miyazawa’s virile brawn, Alexander Volg Zangief’s steely intimidation, Ichiro Miyata’s icy determination, and Ippo Makunouchi’s fiery willpower were going test them in the mixed martial boxing cage.
  • Day 29- Total Fighting Mixed Martial Boxing with 32-year-old Baki Hanma from Baki the Grappler (double axe handles)
  • Day 30- Historical Pride FC Mixed Martial Boxing with 32-year-old Ryoma Sakamoto from Shura no Toki (ground-and-pounds)

  • Day 35- Kamogawa Mixed Martial Boxing with 30-year-old Ippo Makunouchi from Hajime no Ippo (overhand punches)
 
Week 6- The Blood Empresses of Ota: Hell Hath No Fury and Rampage (Toran, Blue, Wakana, Mika, Enju, Karan, and Takako)
Dudley and Daisy always believed that every bruise, cut, and blister they acquired from the various punches and fist-related strikes were battle scars to be proud of, and they wore their battle scars with glee. With their punching repertoire gaining in momentum, coupled with some ground-and-pounds as well as some sprawl-and-brawls, they were enthusiastic for some more beatdowns. This time it was from the firebrands willing to dish out some hard pain, panic, and punishment in the forms of Toran, Blue, Wakana, Mike Seido, Enju, Karan, and Takako Kawashima. With the takedowns and striking ready, there was no rest for them.
  • Day 36- Krav Maga with 32-year-old Toran from Inuyasha (mounted chokes)

Week 7- The Queens of Scintillating Strikes of Machida: Potent Power (Rosé T, Rose A, Winry, Megumi, Maya, Solty, and Kaoru)
All the grappling and striking with those fiery firebrands might have made Dudley and Daisy feel like jelly, but they were anticipating another round of attacks from the next set of fierce fighter women. Even with the black eyes, bruises, and hoarse voices, Dudley’s and Daisy’s children were still cheering for them. It was their children’s encouragement that helped them be the superheroes that they needed. Rosé Thomas’s firmness, Rose Anderson’s resilience, Winry Rockbell’s stamina, Megumi Minami’s valor, Maya Orihara’s intuition, Solty Revant’s enthusiasm, and Kaoru Ichinose’s instinct also helped them thrive as fighters and parents.
  • Day 43- Yongmudo with 28-year-old Rosé Thomas from Fullmetal Alchemist (rotational wristlocks)
  • Day 44- Gongkwon Yusul with 27-year-old Rose Anderson from Solty Rei (supinating wristlocks)

Week 8- The Relentless Strikers of Shinagawa: Blood and Blossoms (Ichise, Kintaro, Kiba, Ran, Ayu, Nina, and Cheza)
No repose could ever come Dudley’s and Daisy’s way after a week of joint locks and kicks. There were evenings that they could barely sleep, for they slept only three to five hours a night, due to recovering from their trainings to the point where their children had to wake them up. Dudley and Daisy were especially excited to meet three male Nak Muay Farangs and four female capoeiristas who were renowned for their speedy precision. They anticipated Ichise’s sharp elbows, Kintaro Toyama’s rock-hard knees, Kiba’s steel shins, Ran’s speed, Ayu Tateishi’s acrobatics, Nina Sakura’s flexibility, and Cheza’s agility to give them more work.
  • Day 50- Muay Lopburi with 30-year-old Ichise from Texhnolyze (elbow slashes)

  • Day 56- Capoeira Angola with 25-year-old Cheza from Wolf’s Rain (cartwheel kicks)
 
Week 9- The Explosive Attackers of Itabashi: Flames and Snow (Hige, Katsushiro, Joshua, Myu, Luna, Kirara, and Azmaria)
Dudley’s and Daisy’s elbows, knees, shins, and feet had a great workout, but steely limbs of iron also need to manage quickly in weapon disarming and self-defense. The constant zeal to learn more techniques remained alive and well in them and their children, who wanted to see their parents use their growing combat skills well. Enter Hige’s avidness, Katsushiro Okamoto’s clarity, Joshua Christopher’s conscientiousness, Myu’s flexibility, Luna’s precision, Kirara Mikumari’s fluidity, and Azmaria Hendric’s honed senses, which would be the best components for Dudley and Daisy to evade attacks and protect their dearest children.
  • Day 57- Bando with 29-year-old Hige from Wolf’s Rain (pressure point strikes to the throat)
  • Day 58- Shan Gyi with 27-year-old Katsushiro Okamoto from Samurai 7 (pressure point strikes to the chin)

Week 10- The Potent Rogues of Arakawa: Earthquake and Rain (Edward, Toboe, Alphonse, Lan Fan, Tiki, Mei Chang, and Leara)
Never in Dudley’s and Daisy’s life together as a married couple with seven children had they experienced that much limbering, stretching, and pressure-point numbing in their bodies than they endured last week. Last week’s sessions served as a reminder that they could never be too careful when dealing with armed and/or unarmed opponents. There was going to be more sessions revolving around real-life fighting outside the dojo’s comfort. Step in Edward Elric’s fierceness, Toboe’s energy, Alphonse Elric’s sharpness, Lan Fan’s kineticism, Tiki Musicanova’s acrobatics, Mei Chang’s persistence, and Leara’s rapidness to iron them up.
  • Day 64- American Kenpo Karate with 26-year-old Edward Elric from Fullmetal Alchemist (universal punches)
  • Day 65- American Tang Soo Do with 26-year-old Toboe from Wolf’s Rain (center punches)

Week 11- The Dukes of Doom of Toshima: Iron Malleability (Kurz, Atsunobu, Sousuke, Kyosuke, Rafael, Koji, and Hiroshi)
Fresh from two weeks of learning weapon evasion techniques, it was off to the kickboxing ring for both Dudley and Daisy. Damien, Darren, Dennis, David, and Devon always wanted to try out kickboxing styles when they grew up, as the first video they watched when they were babies was a YouTube video of Andy Hug fighting against Ernesto Hoost. Who else welcomed Dudley, Daisy, and their progeny than Kurz Weber’s ferocity, Atsunobu Hayashimizu’s charm, Sousuke Sagara’s military precision, Kyosuke Kano’s fieriness, Rafael Rodrigo da Silva’s quick timing, Koji Jefferson Sakai’s brilliance, and Hiroshi Ichikawa’s frisson to boost their spirits.
  • Day 71- Muay Lao with 31-year-old Kurz Weber from Full Metal Panic (reverse horizontal elbows)
  • Day 72- Pradal Serey with 30-year-old Atsunobu Hayashimizu from Full Metal Panic (double elbow chops)

Week 12- The Vicious Kyokushin Princes of Akihabara: Steel Might (Shinji, Chrono, Syaoran, Eriol, Ryu, Kyu, and Kazuma)
Neither eviscerating elbows nor pulverizing punches nor kinetic kicks were going to get Dudley and Daisy down. The thought of enduring more full-contact hits from Kyokushin Karate’s many descendants might have scared them, but it drove them to get back on their feet and continue demonstrating their mettle. Shinji Kazama’s sharp mind, Chrono’s quick reflexes, Li Syaoran’s unwavering toughness, Eriol Hiragizawa’s unfathomable steeliness, Ryu Amakusa’s focused brutality, Kyu Renjo’s righteous ferocity, and Kazuma Narusawa’s silent intimidation surged into Dudley and Daisy to muster up more fighting spirit to the nines.

Week 13- The Countesses of Chaos of Minato: Titanium Reflexes (Himiko, Beatrice, Remmy, Natsumi, Kaname, Tessa, and Mizuki)
Recovering from Kyokushin Karate’s descendants’ blows was easier said than done for Dudley and Daisy to the point where their darling children yelled loudly for their parents to greet the day. Despite being only two years old, Dorothy and Dominique wanted to learn Kyokushin Karate and its descendants. Their parents promised their little girls that they would do it when they reached the right age. Himiko Kudou’s tactfulness, Beatrice Ratio’s deadliness, Remmy Levi-Strauss’s intellect, Natsumi Mizuki’s ebullience, Kaname Chidori’s ambition, Tessa Testarossa’s aptness, and Mizuki Inaba’s nimbleness were next in line for more combat.
  • Day 85- Goju-Ryu Karate with 30-year-old Himiko Kudou from GetBackers (ridge hand strikes)
  • Day 86- Chanquan with 30-year-old Beatrice Ratio from Geneshaft (knife hand strikes)

Week 14- The Fine Shotokan Princesses of Shibuya: Platinum Strikes (Eclair, Rosette, Sakura, Tomoyo, Meiling, Lumière, and Claus)
After enduring a whole bevy of strikes, punches, and kicks last week, Dudley and Daisy were now at the final week of martial arts training. All their seven children were extremely elated to see their parents endure, survive, and thrive as martial artists and as total fighting heroes. All Dudley and Daisy needed to do was to face Eclair’s might, Rosette Christopher’s rambunctiousness, Sakura Kinomoto’s honor, Tomoyo Daidouji’s benevolent attitude, Meiling Li’s confidence, Lumière’s cooperative spirit, and Claus’s charismatic motions, and they would finally complete their training. Nevertheless, they were still learning and growing.
  • Day 92- Kyokushin Karate with 28-year-old Eclair from Kiddy Grade (tiger’s mouth strikes)
  • Day 93- Yoshukai Karate with 27-year-old Rosette Christopher from Chrono Crusade (bear hand strikes)
  • Day 94- Shotokan Karate with 26-year-old Sakura Kinomoto from Cardcaptor Sakura (open fist strikes)
  • Day 95- Uechi-Ryu Karate with 26-year-old Tomoyo Daidouji from Cardcaptor Sakura (forefinger knuckle strikes)
  • Day 96- Shuri-Ryu Karate with 26-year-old Meiling Li from Cardcaptor Sakura (back hand strikes)
  • Day 97- Wado-Ryu Karate with 22-year-old Lumière from Kiddy Grade (goose neck strikes)
  • Day 98- Shito-Ryu Karate with 22-year-old Claus from Fullmetal Alchemist (sword arm strikes)
 
Dudley and Daisy were elated, relieved, and happy that they were able to complete fourteen weeks of martial arts training. Despite the eviscerating pain, the sleepless nights, and the insane amount of soreness all over their bodies, they were still able to thrive exceedingly well as martial artists. Damien, Darren, Dennis, David, Devon, Dorothy, and Dominique were proud of their parents for striving through their ordeals while doing everything possible to take care of them and inspire them to be the stronger fighters that they were. With heavy hearts and tears flowing from their eyes, the Puppy family bid goodbye to all of their mentors and hoped to see them next time. At least, Dudley and Daisy could have a long-haul flight back to the United States of America to recover, unwind, and still give a lot of love to their darling children. The End.

The Fourteen Anime Septet Martial Arts Teams

September 22, 2023 in The Splendid Seven

Greetings, anime fans, martial arts aficionados, fighting game devotees, and enthusiasts of all things about anime, martial arts, video games, and fighting tournaments. Antoni here with another written entry. If you know me, based on the title, there are four things I am most passionate about. One is the number seven because it is the number of high fortunes, wealth, prosperity, abundance, sanctity, hope, and faith. Two is anything divisible by seven, and my first passion should be indicative, especially for those of you who have been paying attention in your mathematics classes when you were very young. Three is anime because of the variety found in the choice, interesting storylines, and the cool factor some of the shows possessed. Four is martial arts tournaments because it is enjoyable to see fighters using various combat styles duking it out in the arena and having it soaked in blood and guts. Combine my four passions in life and you get fourteen team-ups consisting of seven anime characters and the martial arts they specialize in.
 
My philosophy revolving around my seven-anime character martial arts teams may affirm the importance of discipline, camaraderie, self-confidence, respect, cooperation, balance, and self-defense. Those attributes are exceptional and should be implemented as habits. However, I also argue that nothing should be held back when launching a series of brutal attacks against various opponents. Those supposedly squeaky-clean characters from the early to mid-2000s Disney Channel sitcoms and cartoons can get their insipid pansy behinds to bail out and get lost, for these fourteen septets of anime martial artists are in the house to tear some butt while looking great in doing so. Therefore, no opponent is safe.
 
Think of this entry as a more organized line-up of the fourteen seven-anime character martial artists featured in the previous entries. Some team-ups are the same, while others are a little more switched up for credibility’s sake. As always, the characters featured will be from anime that I watched on Animax, Adult Swim, Hero TV, and even on the internet, with the ones featured from Inuyasha, Baki the Grappler, Shura no Toki, Shootfighter Tekken, Hajime no Ippo, Fullmetal Alchemist, Solty Rei, Ultra Maniac, Wolf’s Rain, Texhnolyze, Geneshaft, Chrono Crusade, Samurai 7, Kiddy Grade, Hungry Heart, Full Metal Panic, GetBackers, and Cardcaptor Sakura. Let’s get ready to rumble. Osu! Hajime!
 
The Splendid Seven (Sesshoumaru, Shuran, Inuyasha, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran)
When these seven powerful Yokai martial artists take center stage, their opponents would want to either head for the hills to save their skins or try their luck in overcoming them. This is thanks to the combined forces of two dog Yokai brothers, Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha, three spiky-haired brothers, Shuran, Hakkaku, and Ginta, and two auburn-haired sisters, Ayame and Shunran, and their brutal moves. Sesshoumaru’s ground and pounds, Shuran’s piledrivers, Inuyasha’s tracheal grip chokes, Hakkaku’s elbow strikes, Ginta’s flying knees, Ayame’s uppercuts, and Shunran’s nerve strikes make them unstoppable as a mighty team.

No natural disaster can equal the damage that Shido Fuyuki, Ban Mido, Ginji Amano, Kyuzo, Heihachi Hayashida, Satella Harvenheit, and Akemi Takaishi can accomplish. When combining Shido’s guillotine chokes, Ban’s arm triangles, Ginji’s leg wheels, Kyuzo’s check kicks, Heihachi’s spinning back kicks, Satella’s ox jaw strikes, and Akemi’s palm strikes, opponents are in for an exciting thrill ride full of spins, rolls, and drops as if they boarded an intense roller coaster ride to oblivion. Where these seven lethal combatants are going to take their opponents is far from bright and breezy, as it will be full of destructive turbulence.
  1. Shido Fuyuki (GetBackers) – Japanese Jujitsu

There is nothing more fulfilling, let alone more purposeful, than ensuring that a true martial artist combines brute force, military precision, quick self-defense, and benevolent character and turn these attributes into a unit. Fortunately for Masaru Aoki, Tatsuya Kimura, Ryuichi Hayami, Mario Musicanova, Hiroto Amagiwa, Sakurako Yukihira, and Kuniko Touya, they are living proof that they have what it takes to live like true martial artists and more. Masaru’s haymakers, Tatsuya’s hooks, Ryuichi’s jabs, Mario’s armbars, Hiroto’s leglocks, Sakurako’s roundhouse kicks, and Kuniko’s double flying kicks can easily incapacitate their opponents.
  1. Masaru Aoki (Hajime no Ippo) – Kamogawa Mixed Martial Boxing

Virile power and heavyweight muscularity are the best lexical descriptions that encapsulate Yoshiki Takaishi, Mamoru Takamura, Kuranosuke Takeda, Tsume, Kisuke, Mitsuhide Kuroda, and Shinosuke. Each of these tall, mighty, powerfully-built gentlemen is capable of making their opponents submit regardless of brute strength and/or unparalleled skill, with the arena cheering them on. Yoshiki’s bearhugs, Mamoru’s liver punches, Kuranosuke’s rear naked chokeholds, Tsume’s fireman’s carries, Kisuke’s double leg takedowns, Mitsuhide’s underhooks, and Shinosuke’s overhooks can reduce mighty giants into mere mortals.

The Kings of Formidable Fists (Baki, Ryoma, Takeshi, Kiibo, Alexander, Ichiro, and Ippo)
Boxing or Mixed Martial Arts? Who gives a damn? Seven strong, handsome, powerful, and fierce dudes who specialize in Mixed Martial Boxing? You’re going to give a damn! This is true when Baki Hanma, Ryoma Sakamoto, Takeshi Sendo, Kiichi “Kiibo” Miyazawa, Alexander Volg Zangief, Ichiro Miyata, and Ippo Makunouchi are fully equipped with their repertoire of eviscerating uppercuts, jabs, hooks, haymakers, double axe handles, ground and pounds, and sprawl and brawls. Furious fists and fleet footwork may be the attributes that define these warrior kings, but they also have the brute strength and fierce brutality to be triumphant.
  1. Baki Hanma (Baki the Grappler) – Total Fighting Mixed Martial Boxing
  2. Ryoma Sakamoto (Shura no Toki) – Historical Pride FC Mixed Martial Boxing

The Blood Empresses (Toran, Blue, Wakana, Mika, Enju, Karan, and Takako)
Hell hath no fury like women who can unleash a bevy of pulverizing punches, kinetic kicks, bashing blows, and sharp strikes against their opponents with pure abandon. Toran, Blue, Wakana, Mika Seido, Enju, Karan, and Takako Kawashima encapsulate the utmost importance of never underestimating your opponents, especially if they are empresses of unleashing brutally impactful body shots. Toran’s regal might, Blue’s sensual femininity, Wakana’s composed manner, Mika’s choleric power, Enju’s ladylike elegance, Karan’s excitable fierceness, and Takako’s avid enthusiasm bolster their performances excellently.
  1. Toran (Inuyasha) – Krav Maga

The Queens of Scintillating Strikes (Rosé T, Rose A, Winry, Megumi, Maya, Solty, and Kaoru)
Grace, agility, power, accuracy, speed, fierceness, and might in the Korean martial arts are the attributes make these luscious ladies unleash bruising bashes against their opponents. Rosé Thomas’s joint locks, Rose Anderson’s ankle locks, Winry Rockbell’s submission holds, Megumi Minami’s spear hand strikes, Maya Orihara’s palm heel strikes, Solty Revant’s shin kicks, and Kaoru Ichinose’s axe kicks can damage their opponents’ heads and limbs if they are not cautious or if they vulgarly provoke them. These seven scintillating sirens may be unparalleled beauties, but they are not afraid to fight like powerfully ferocious beasts.

The Relentless Strikers (Ichise, Kintaro, Kiba, Ran, Ayu, Nina, and Cheza)
This incredible team-up is the result of combining the powers of three Nak Muay Farangs in Ichise, Kintaro Toyama, and Kiba and four capoeiristas in Ran, Ayu Tateishi, Nina Sakura, and Cheza. To say that their strikes are incredibly painful is a mere understatement. Ichise’s sharp elbows, Kintaro’s rock-hard knees, and Kiba’s steel shins can destroy their opponents’ skeletal structures faster than lightning. Ran, Ayu, Nina, and Cheza may possess dance-like gracefulness reminiscent of gymnastics and ballet, but their tricking, kicking, and punching can leave their opponents numb. There is no escape from these speedy combatants.
  1. Ichise (Texhnolyze) – Muay Thai
  2. Kintaro Toyama (Detective School Q) – Muay Thai
  3. Kiba (Wolf’s Rain) – Muay Thai

  7. Cheza (Wolf’s Rain) – Capoeira
 
The Explosive Attackers (Hige, Katsushiro, Joshua, Myu, Luna, Kirara, and Azmaria)
Fighters should never be fooled by the charisma and charm that encapsulate Hige, Katsushiro Okamoto, Joshua Christopher, Myu, Luna, Kirara Mikumari, and Azmaria Hendric as martial artists because they can be just as brutal as they are charming. Hige’s vicious strikes, Katsushiro’s deadly accuracy, Joshua’s focused timing, Myu’s nimble speed, Luna’s graceful agility, Kirara’s gorgeous flexibility, and Azmaria’s quick leaps are legendary. Once opponents attempt to have a go at them, it is over. Myu, Luna, Kirara, and Azmaria start off with graceful yet accurate strikes before Hige, Katsushiro, and Joshua make a brutal finish.
  1. Hige (Wolf’s Rain) – Bando

The Potent Rogues (Edward, Toboe, Alphonse, Lan Fan, Tiki, Mei Chang, and Leara)
Rambunctious, rambling, and rowdy do not even begin to describe Edward Elric, Toboe, Alphonse Elric, Lan Fan, Tiki Musicanova, Mei Chang, and Leara as fighters who know how to kick butt, defend themselves, and disarm any thug who dares to attack them with dirty tactics. The two Elric brothers know how to handle quick yet powerful attacks, especially when they join forces with Toboe’s accuracy. Lan Fan, Tiki, Mei Chang, and Leara manage superbly with their agility and speed. Therefore, these seven speedily accurate fighters can be advantageous when pitting them against stronger, fiercer, and deadlier opponents.
  1. Edward Elric (Fullmetal Alchemist) – American Kenpo Karate

  3. Alphonse Elric (Fullmetal Alchemist) – Shaolin Kenpo Karate

Iron fists, quicksilver feet, metal shins, and heaps of determination propel Kurz Weber, Atsunobu Hayashimizu, Sousuke Sagara, Kyosuke Kano, Rafael Rodrigo da Silva, Koji Jefferson Sakai, and Hiroshi Ichikawa to perform at their very best in the kickboxing ring. When that bell peals, spectators know that these seven gladiators will let it rip on their opponents. Kurz’s elbow slashes, Atsunobu’s upward elbows, Sousuke’s downward elbows, Kyosuke’s uppercuts, Rafael’s jabs, Koji’s hooks, and Hiroshi’s cross punches are the attacks that can easily place their opponents in their place and knock them out cold.
  1. Kurz Weber (Full Metal Panic) – Muay Lao

Full-contact blows and hard hits are the names of the game that Shinji Kazama, Chrono, Li Syaoran, Eriol Hiragizawa, Ryu Amakusa, Kyu Renjo, and Kazuma Narusawa play when taking their opponents down. Mas Oyama and his descendants would be proud of these fine combatants for giving it everything they got in various tournaments. Shinji’s and Chrono’s masterful use of takedowns, Syaoran’s and Eriol’s lightning-quick speed, and Ryu’s, Kyu’s, and Kazuma’s overpowering blows are what place them at the top of their game and make them triumph well. With their skills combined, they always find a way to fight well.

The Countesses of Chaos (Himiko, Beatrice, Remmy, Natsumi, Kaname, Tessa, and Mizuki)
Appearances can be deceiving, especially when all that spectators initially see are the gorgeous countenances and lovely figures of Himiko Kudou, Beatrice Ratio, Remmy Levi-Strauss, Natsumi Mizuki, Kaname Chidori, Teletha “Tessa” Testarossa, and Mizuki Inaba. It is easy to believe that they are solely gorgeous faces with heaps of charm. However, they make it clear that they mean business. Himiko’s spear hand strikes, Beatrice’s knife hand strikes, Remmy’s ox jaw strikes, Natsumi’s leopard blows, Kaname’s spinning back fists, Tessa’s nerve strikes, and Mizuki’s finger strikes are what their opponents must endure to survive them.
  1. Himiko Kudou (GetBackers) – Goju-Ryu Karate
  2. Beatrice Ratio (Geneshaft) – Changquan

Martial artists cannot fight if they do not have honor. This is the code that Eclair, Rosette Christopher, Sakura Kinomoto, Tomoyo Daidouji, Meiling Li, Lumière, and Claus live by and will preserve with honor, integrity, and honesty. These fabulous fighters are not having any belittlement or degradation rain on their parade because they have the strong willpower to make even the strongest and mightiest opponents thoroughly humbled. Eclair’s and Rosette’s sharp and hard blows, Sakura’s, Tomoyo’s, and Meiling’s physical flexibility, and Lumière’s and Claus’s rapid speed are the components needed for them to triumph.

This is What Weight Loss Looks and Feels Like

This is What Weight Loss Looks and Feels Like

September 20, 2023 in Blogs

Ladies and gentlemen, fellow artists, actors, singers, voiceover artists, reviewers, online personalities, television personalities, academics, friends, family members, and all my loved ones, I present my torrid yet rewarding odyssey of losing weight. From 2019 to this year, I have hurled obesity out of my door for good. The journey has been arduous, but I feel happier and healthier.

Sure, my lightest weight this year was 10 stone 5 pounds (145 pounds or 66 kilograms), as my last photo is evidence of my recent achievement. However, I was complacent and ballooned back to my heaviest weight this year of 12 stone 2.6 pounds (170.6 pounds or 77.4 kilograms) last July. At least this recent blunder served as a sobering reminder that I had to keep picking up the pace of my weight loss progress by doing way more exercise than last year, let alone the previous months.

There have been fringe benefits, though. As of this month, I have gone down to 11 stone 9.4 pounds (163.4 pounds or 74.1 kilograms), thus maintaining my overall 5-stone 8.3-pound (78.3-pound or 35.5-kilogram) weight loss for two years straight. My blood pressure is no longer high, but I must reduce my relatively high uric acid levels. Several clothes that were once too tight to fit ended up either loose on me or comfortably fitting. I walk and run faster than I ever did on my journeys from home to the university and many other destinations within Berlin. Many of my loved ones have been remarking that I look good and should maintain weight. These are phenomenal, but I know I can do more to be the slimmer man I should be. The numbers that I am looking at range between a 6-pound (2.7-kilogram) to a 3-stone 5-pound (47-pound or 21.3-kilogram) weight loss to maintain my healthy weight range. I remain steadfast in my resolve to continue losing as much weight as possible.

Thank you all for your constant encouragement throughout my journey thus far, and I will continue to live as healthily as possible. That is a promise I shall gladly keep to you all.
