The thing is, imagine the amazing things the organizers have planned related to anime (read some news and articles that Goku was the mascot of the event and things like that) and they were canceled because of covid 😢 just imagine Goku doing a Kamehameah in the opening ceremony to light up the Olympic flame 🔥😂
The fact that they worked in an anime sequence to actually score a point in men’s volleyball is fucking EPIC! It literally is exactly the same. It warms my heart that humanity found a way to bond over anime.
you do realize they did this in the volleyball world cup 2019 without taking inspiration from the manga or anime (haikyuu season 4 came out in 2020 i think). also the way you say this is like volleyball itself is scripted 💀 not tryna hate but you sound exactly like all the cringe haikyuu fans
@@drainrequiem Yeah i feel like it would make way more sense that they would just use it as an normal move not to reference the anime in any sort of way. It does look like a move that could be used well in games.
I think it was actually lucky that Japan was the one slated to host the Olympics when the pandemic happened. Their meticulous preparations and ability to foresee consequences (on an organizational level) was needed to keep the athletes safe during this time.

The whole Olympics was an anime reference. They were supposed to take place in 2020 n Tokyo, but an almost world ending event put a stop to it....a la Akira
I’m genuinely surprised that Bleach wasn’t made reference to in 2020s Tokyo Olympics especially in events like fencing which use fake swords but swords nonetheless
If it makes you feel better, i think one of the traditional sword fighting competitions in Japan for the Olympics, the guy who won used the Rengoku esoteric art pose.
If the pandemic didn't happened, for sure Tokyo Olympics will showcase not just anime but also its Japanese pop culture as well. Overheard that Perfume was supposed to perform during the opening ceremony but it didn't happened.
Seeing the anime references was....and after 3 years, still IS the saving grace of the 2020+1 Tokyo Summer Olympics, because if it haven't been for COVID-19, this would've been enjoyable and watchable, crowds and everything else......the other saving grace, not canceling it ALTOGETHER, it's been 84 years since the Games were upended and shut down due to WW2, but give Tokyo hontoni omedetogozaimasu / huge congratulations for pulling this off. What a difference 3 years makes. Now we're in 2024, in Paris, and things are back to normal, crowds, athletes exploring the city, ah, ca ira....in a good way, bonsoir!
That's such a big shame that COVID ruined this all! No spectators on the venues and a reduced show... Could have been so much better, I hope they'll get another chance soon, having the OG at home is an amazing feeling!
Weird place to put this but Rachid Muratake actually did a jojo pose coming onto the track in one of the later track races in Paris too... It happened the same race Noah Lyles participated while with covid, so that might be why I haven't seen it brought up
0:22 That's not a one piece reference (probably). I think that the athlete was imitating the typical exultation of a famous Italian football player called Francesco Totti, the name of that move is called "ciuccio" (the suck).
I can assure you that it wasn't a gear 3rd reference from the Italian athlete but a Totti reference 😂 - that's how he would cheer after scoring a goal, and it had nothing to do with One Piece

I can't wait until japan next hosts the Olympics it's actually gonna be so much fun especially the amount of people who are starting to enjoy anime
IKR!!? And I’m hoping to be there :’)
Anime is a part of world culture since 60s and 70s. It's only the americans who are catching up, or thinking that its "still enjoyed by few".

Overheard that Perfume was supposed to perform during the opening ceremony but it didn't happened.

They placed the mountain climbing portion perfectly, they can have the Unicorn Gundam look over them
Wait till they say light yagami as coach for japan
