Knowing your blood type is much more important than I previously thought.
After finding out my blood type, I put it on all of my online dating profiles and found my soulmate within an hour.

I have yet to try eating watermelon with salt. When I have had the melon I have forgotten to add salt, and whenI remember the salt I possess no melons. If it turns out to be a good combo, then yes.

As an American, I never really had a good sense of scale for the metric system until I watched Shingeki no Kyojin. When they did the little scene on how all the titans were either 5 meters tall, 10 meters tall, or 15 meters tall, comparing those heights to the buildings and the characters on the show gave me a rough scale for how meters scale.

Before, all I knew was that people were almost always approximately a little less than two meters, but comparing the size of the titans to the buildings etc. gave me a better sense of how larger sizes stack up. Shame the show wasn't very good, though.

I learned that 2D > 3DPD. Also learned that it doesn't matter if it's a boy or a girl, as long as it's cute.

Lots of stuff like tatami galaxy, oregairu, gintama, gto have taught me many life lessons and have made me rethink how i live and relate with others

Mythology (greek, nordic), rules for a lot of sports (soccer, tennis, baseball, ping-pong), animal and human biology, cooking.
Japanese mangakas love to make a lot of research about anything, I think I can say they taught me more than my own parents in much more areas.
Not even speaking about japanese itself, as I'm living in Japan and well, no doubt it's useful.

Not directly from anime, but after awhile having anime as a hobby lead to not giving a shit what people think about my hobbies.
I used to care that I freakishly hid everything relating to anime, nowdays I don't shove it in peoples faces but I don't care if people see my animu wallpaper or if they find out I have a few figures.
Or that I love drawing animu like a 12 y/o.

That's the point of my comment, It's in every anime that tries to be "deep and philosophical" and it's always misused.

>>138765672
What about Phantom World?

I learned that even if it's impossible to save everyone, it's not wrong to try

I learned that japan has a really shitty work ethic, and the reason why there is so much media from japan about high school is because that was the last time an average japanese person had any freedom.

one piece is the only anime there.

Animals/human corpses will still react to painful stimuli even after decapitation

i had to fucking see for myself, I caught a lizard outside and decapitated it, waited until it stopped moving completely then waited 2 more minutes, and burned the tail with my lighter. Myth confirmed, it started flailing everywhere and shit. I'm now an EMT

Lots of little things about japanese culture.
Students clean the classrooms.
Sneezing means someone is thinking about you.

It's rude not to give someone your name.
Lots of stuff about shinto and buddhism.

It stops reacting to pain after awhile as well. I don't know the exact time, but you still have reflexive action, and decapitation has no impact on that.
So things like sexual arousal and pain still cause a reaction.

>>138766222
Even with stimuli? About 15-20 minutes IIRC

It was dead still after I decapitated it, i picked it up and thumped it, nothing. Then as I said I waited a couple more minutes then burned the tail and it scared the shit out of me flailing everywhere

>>138766351
at least your're not frogposting

>>138766166
Well, the human body works kinda different, when our spines are severed we lost reflexes for some time (days-weeks) and then eventually recover them (assuming we don't die), that only works in frogs and stuff because their nervous systems are more primitive.

No the lizard still died anon, I decapitated it. I was just surprised that even 10 or so minutes after cutting its head off, when I burned the body it started moving WILDLY.

>>138766524
Well, yeah, that's my point. That works because it's a lizard. It doesn't work with humans.

>Mythology
>Japanese mangakas love to make a lot of research about...
After actually doing extensive research on mythology from all corners of the world, I can safely say that Japan loves name-dropping Mythical figures because "it's so cool!" but doesn't actually know anything about it beyond that.

I already knew the Japanese police were pretty shit, but I also learned from Sakurako's Boner that they're too lazy to do proper autopsies and tend to call most deaths suicides. Also a couple of Biology and bone related things.

>>138769180
I also learned that their justice system is pretty bad, IIRC they pretty much force a confession out of people.

>>138763622

Not directly from the anime. I found this when I lurking in TV Tropes

The depiction of their dysfunction is supposedly too extreme to be believable. In fact, the main trio's personalities match up very well to genuine mental problems, to the point where it seems probable that they were consciously modeled after them. Shinji seems to have avoidant personality disorder, Asuka narcissistic personality disorder and Rei schizoid personality disorder
