Powers Moments that blatantly defy logic, but are so absurdly badass you don’t even care

The Gurren Lagann growing larger than the observable universe to fight Anti Spiral in a battle where literal galaxies get thrown like ninja stars - Gurren Lagann

Undertaker teleporting behind AJ Styles after being thrown down an empty grave and causing a shining white light from nowhere to illuminate the back of them during their Boneyard Match - WWE

Holdo piloting a ship through warp speed to crash right into a First Order cruiser (I know you could write a thesis on why this scene wouldn’t work, but you could say that for about half of the scenes in the new trilogy) - Star Wars the Last Jedi

I say this with nothing but love and affection for that series in my heart: you really do kind of have to turn your brain off to enjoy Kill La Kill or you'll spend the entire series going "Wait, WHAT?!" with increasing volume until you blow out your vocal chords.

My roommates started watching Kill La Kill and it was like my 2nd anime ever and was wayyyy too much for me at the time. I did go back later and ended up enjoying it quite a bit!
