Not a Member? Just join before Sep 20th, and you can still enter.

Quick note. To enforce new photos other people had asked for having a hashtag physically on the photo... Maybe an idea for future rounds.

Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

Nice idea!

Quick question already, kendama player, can that be yourself or am i enlisting some fetching models playing kendama?

Thanks

@mreasyguy It can be yourself. Presumably all BKA Members count as kendama players!

Ummm...

So, the rule-bending starts already?
@Kev Nice try, but... Rejected!

A real car, with a real engine, capable of transporting people, please!

Frankly, when I read the first entry, I had exactly the same idea. Much quicker to do :) Let's see how I can bend otherwise.

This is brilliant. I'm in,

How about this one? It is new picture, real cars and kendama player.

I'll try and give this a go. I can't add hashtags because I don't have and can't get Instagram.

Why do I get the feeling this is going to get more outlandish as each new round is revealed?  ;D

Nice idea, Void!

Okay I'm stumped! IDK why my picture is sideways...it wasn't when I uploaded it!

My son,  Nate "nasher". can't get to his login right now, I hope this post can count for him, this is him w/ dama today. Thanks!

OK I give up; I actually rotated Nate's picture right 90 deg. before I uploaded it...Haha!  Oh well! Cheers from the States!

@nashfire On the first picture, only the thumbnail is sideways - when you click on it, it's the right way round. (So, the second picture is sideways when clicked on.) Must be a problem with the forum's thumnail generation software. Sorry about that.

Your entry is accepted.
Since we are so close to the deadline, we'll accept @Nasher's entry too, but for future rounds, he must use his own login to post.

Thanks!

@icedzed Accepted. (Cool tee - both of them!)

So many ideas about how to bend the rules here. Will take some photos tonight

Na na na na na na na na na na na na na... you know who ;)

(http://lh3.googleusercontent.com/djjGeY8jbeUVmY2zz-IaRSdeVv7JNUUOpqlG79XzeHwJEAYRnxY=w713-h951-no)


@Sonicpearse - I get your drift, Batman does not have any supernatural powers, i.e. he's not a mutant or alien etc... He is, however, extraordinarilly intelligent, skilled in many martial arts and very resourceful. And he is willing to go where no one has gone before to save Gotham from the scum running the city.

Really trying to bend the rules with this one, but I had to try

Oh, and I also wanted to say that Supermario is not a superhero nor supervillan nor an anime character. Or am I perchance missing something? ;)

Mario has super in his name, making him a superhero  ;D
(Rob Logic!)

I agree with @jakub.zahumensky on the Super Mario topic. He is an iconic japanese videogame character but neither a superhero, villain or anime character. A hero maybe...

On the topic of Batman being a superhero:

Yes, they both have loads of money, BUT they are both far above average in their intelligence and their skills and they use their abilities and resources to fight evil. They have strong set of morals (well, Batman has, anyway) and principles that they follow. Neither is a regular Joe and both would still be able to make a difference even if they lost all their money.

Perhaps the best way to work this out is by quoting the Caped Crusader himself:
"It's not who I am underneath, but what I do that defines me."

@Dimensions - yeah, that's Rob logic :D

Don't get me wrong, jakub. I am a fan of Iron man since the 90s ;-)

https://instagram.com/p/8fLquTEKm6/
Found Hulk in my Dama! ;)

Hulk dama = Winner !

wow that hulk-dama is awesome!!

Shame I missed the deadline on this. This superhero round is excellent.

FWIW I'd say neither Batman or Iron man are superheroes - they are both super and heroes though.

And Rob, your Mario logic is stupendous and I salute you sir. Truth is spoken.

Oh yeah, the HulkDama rules.

Thank you guys,
It's a Costum from cello

@jakub.zahumensky Accepted!
@SkubMosh Accepted!

Okay, for other details... firstly...

- a superhero / supervillain / anime character (Update: 3D physical representation)
- スーパーヒーロー/スーパー悪役/アニメキャラクター （更新：3次元物理表現）             (<-- @Satomi Shiba )

We should have specified to start with, so apologies for that.

@shalafi Nice picture of Yatterman- actually we used the same one at the Anime Con this weekend! - but it's not 3D, and that's a picture of a picture of a kendama, not a picture of a kendama, so Rejected for that reason too.
@nashfire Officially Rejected, for the above reasons.

Finally, although the picture of Supermario and Void was given as an example picture (and perhaps a bad one, depending on your point of view), it was merely illustrative, and not an actual entry to this competition, so no official BKA decision on Mario's status is necessary. :)

As I said, I had to try. I printed that one for past year eirtakon, where I had all the Kendama related anime characters (4 so far) as part of the workshop

And since I was expecting the rejection, I have this other photo ready :-)

(http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/10/06/f1fdff23201eaa225a2abfd2d174b71d.jpg)

@shalafi Who is that on your shoulder, please? Need more info to judge...

It's Kon, from the anime / manga Bleach (only 3D figure I had at home, to my utterly surprise) http://bleach.wikia.com/wiki/Kon (http://bleach.wikia.com/wiki/Kon)

@shalafi Verified, Accepted. Cheers!

Thanks! I'm on a trip next week, so I hope the last photo does not include anything too hard to find.

just saying.. mario have an anime:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Mario_Bros.:_Peach-Hime_Kyushutsu_Dai_Sakusen (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Mario_Bros.:_Peach-Hime_Kyushutsu_Dai_Sakusen)!



and also ironman and batman have a cartoon/anime (not sure if it's from japan or not)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batman:_Gotham_Knight (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batman:_Gotham_Knight)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marvel_Anime#Iron_Man (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marvel_Anime#Iron_Man)

The iron man cartoons I've seen are all American, so technically it's not anime, but I may not have seen then all.

Great point on Mario. I wasn't aware of that :-)

I almost gave up...no superheros in Da House...action figures must have been packed during remodel..but...I was out today at a Walgreens drugstore looking for something unrelated when what did I see?...A kendama! For sale at our local Walgreens! (I didn't even know they carried them) When I picked it up to check it out I glanced up and who was looking right at me? Ironman! It Was Meant To Be!
So I snapped a quick unflattering photo...my expression seems to mirror Ironman's a bit don't you think?
I hope this one works!

@nashfire Aaaccepteddd! ( <---- Slightly fuzzy acceptance seemed appropriate. ;) )

Yay! Thanks! My phone is not smart and I was rushing to bootleg the shot; got some funny looks from the employees.  :o
'Dama on!

But it was meant to be :)

@MisterJumpshoe Was going to reject this on the grounds that a horror film character isn't quite a supervillain, but apparently...

...so, accepted!

Hahaha! Is there nothing that cannot be Animed (is that even a word?)

Well that may makes it easier for me! im off to thorpe park tomorrow for some horror mazes and things so will be taking a kendama to see what I can snap!

Better than my first option of trying to stretch the superhero part out and take a pic with my Mum as lets be honest, everyone's Mum is a super hero  :P

No joy  :( Good luck with the rest of the comp guys!

TIME'S UP!
Round 5 details shortly.

Congratulations to @KenSan @Sonicpearse @icedzed @jakub.zahumensky

Reply to this thread: Post a picture (or a link to a picture) of...

Both feet must be in the air, and the ken must be above the tama.
It must be a new photo. (Not already on the internet).

@shalafi It's a bit dark under your right leg. Are you standing on a pedestal? ;) Nah, we believe you, and it's Accepted!
Thanks.

Truth is that the tip of the foot is just touching the side of the frame (can be seen playing with the color levels and curves on a photo editor). Terrible lightning, may try to get a clearer one before the deadline.

Another day of fine English weather!!

Looking at the pic again, it's more like a crazy samurai with two katanas coming to cut you to pieces :D Anime style...

Congratulations to the winner!

Cool! Thank you very much @BKA and @The Void for hosting the comp. It was a lot of fun with some great pictures from everybody who entered.

It was especially fun seeing my wife's face when I walked into the garden with a Kendama, a couple of bunches of broccoli and a pint of squash and also asking her to photo me jumping around the garden with a kendama!

Well done everybody! :)

very silly and super funny comp !
you all rock ! ;-)

That was pretty rockin'! Such fun!
