it's interesting how some animanga has (probably temporary) effects on a (seemingly) wide spread of their audience with regards to health. prince of tennis and basically most early sports animanga i know of got people to be more active. and now dunmeshi is making people think about food.

I was reading the YouTube comments of the OP for a show called How Heavy Are the Dumbbells You Lift which looks to be some kind of ecchi weightlifting thing, and I was laughing at how many people were like “I had never exercised before but this show inspired me to get fit and now I’m in the best shape of my life”
that's so funny and also fascinating. this keeps happening!!! different anime and media is inspiring to different types of folks, truly
Something I've thought about is what a shounen anime about childcare would do to parenting.
I want a show that treats a baby (maybe an adult isekai'd into a baby) exactly like a power creep, constantly levelling up shounen. Baby babbles in hopes of achieving enough fine motor control in their mouth to form consonants. The first word is HUGE. Lots of baby exercises to get hand control, strengthen neck enough to lift giant baby head, turn over. Crawling, taking first steps, walking without support? Basically a tournament arc.
I think it could be done SO easily (and be REALLY funny), but also it'd teach viewers about early child development and make fathers think childcare is Cool. Men would get more involved in actively raising their kids. It'd be revolutionary.
your brain is so huge. i think that would be really funny and good!!! i would love to see this if it were a real show
