the lookout for a few spoilers down the
line number 10 plus ultra my hero
academia every school has their own
slogan or chant but there’s little
chance to find one as awesome as this
often spoken by both the students and
faculty who attend to you a high this
phrase is meant to inspire the heroes of
tomorrow to go beyond their limits and
win the day as it happens there’s a lot
of potency to it as during his battle
with the seemingly invulnerable nomu all
might used the phrase to push himself
beyond what he thought was capable
resulting in one half of hunch
number nine in the name of the Moon I
will punish you
Sailor Moon series yeah it might sound a
little goofy and he was only uttered in
the original Japanese but there’s still
something oddly fitting about the leader
of the Sailor Senshi swearing on a
natural satellite that she will punish
her foes given how the show managed to
introduce pioneer and popularize many of
the magical girl cliches that we’ve
learned to love over the years we’d say
that her adorable promise of beating the
crap out of villains on behalf of the
moon still earns a spot on this list

number eight believe it Naruto series
granted as he’s matured he slowly
dropped this phrase but when he was
still just an amateur ninja with a dream
you couldn’t stop narrow toe from
spouting these words every chance he got
looked down on by the hidden leaf
village his whole life because of the
demon that lurks inside him beyond
kuzumochi vowed to win everyone’s
respect by aspiring to become the Hokage
and with it came this age-old saying
which proved to be just as catchy with
both the dub and Sub versions of the
show number seven there’s only one truth
Detective Conan the guy is one of the
greatest investigators to ever grace
anime damn right he’s gonna have an
awesome catchphrase like a true
detective Shinichi Kudo only believes in
evidence facts and himself of course
doubt is always bound to rear its head
given me many many many many many cases
he’s undertaken over the years as such
whenever he’s in a tough spot or is just
about to solve a mystery you can always
count on him to let loose this
ginge it’s like it’s more stats we also
have to give a special mention to the
dubbed version of this catchphrase which
is short sweet and to the point one
truth prevails words to live by
number six it’s time to duel you yo it’s
time to duel you will believe that an
anime can make a children’s card game
friggin epic without a shadow of a doubt
if two duelists in this series meet up
and are about to square off there’s a
guarantee that one of them is gonna
declare that it’s time to duel
of course the most notable one is in the
case of beauty it’s such an infectious
catchphrase that it’s somehow made its
way into the dubbed opening it may not
have as much attention but the original
Japanese phrase or day no turn is also
worthy of a mention given how every
protagonist says it across the franchise
number 5 Nikko Nikko need love live this
catchphrase became so infamous that had
ascended to become one of animes
greatest memes in a bit to demonstrate
to her friends the cuteness required of
an idol Yasawa Nikko performs the
following quote complete with all manner
of posing
while it certainly achieves its goal
what’s so surprising is the legacy it’s
left behind you can try to fight it all
you want and try to convince yourself
you find it annoying but it’s only a
matter of time before you’re chanting
along with Nico Nico oh god damn it it’s
happening number four it’s not Zura its
Katsura
Gintama pork astra try as he might no
one can get his name right and we really
mean everyone in his most guilty of this
but thanks to cats were a deadpan
response the tank really never gets old
on the contrary we kind of wish people
would call him zoo Rome more often cuts
him while he’s a badass freedom fighter
who can go toe-to-toe with basically
anyone or anything all anyone is ever
gonna remember is the wrong name oh well
at least we’ll always have Elisabeth by
his side does he catch the ricotta
[Music]
number three yada yadi does it yeah do
this
good grief sometimes life can be a pain
in the ass especially if your Jotaro
Kujo after discovering his Joestar
lineage the fact that he can summon a
psychic an attack called a stand and has
to deal with the likes of geo brando
Gennaro comes to frequently let loose
this phrase to describe his frustration
in a low-key kind of way yes granted
compared to his usual violent antics
this catchphrase highlights a much more
observed side to his personality
although it’s stout phille to stay that
way don’t be surprised if da da da da da
say switches to Ora Ora Ora and a
heartbeat number 2 just who the hell do
you think I am Goran Longin just who the
hell do you think Oh
kameena you were truly gone too soon
nothing could compare to your Profoto

forget the way he wielded that massive
sword is disinterested shirts and
awesome signature shades what we all
remember the most about him are these
immortal words who the hell do you think
I am I’m coming out of teen current
often owners went up against the ropes
coming I will shake off any shred of
anxiety with this phrase and push
himself until he achieves victory even
in death his spirit is so strong that
the phrase is adopted by the rest of
team decorum
we miss you come inna
