How is America the worst at shooting?
It’s almost as if the gun culture here is obsessed with something other than sportsmanship.
Only 1 Olympic shooting discipline (skeet) is for an event that's popular in The US shooting scene.
The US took home half the individual medals in skeet, including the men's event which ended with the 2 Americans in an overtime shoot-off for gold because they had tied with 1-point shy of an Olympic record (that was held by the eventual winner of the shoot-off). The kid who won silver in the men's didn't miss a target in the prelims and was halfway through the finals before his first miss.
If other popular American shooting events like practical multi-gun, cowboy action shooting, and and IDPA shooting were in the Olympics America would probably do much better in shooting. But the firearms used in those events are illegal in enough countries that it would be difficult to have them as an Olympic sport.
To put the different guns into perspective, the slow-paced "long range" precision rifle event in the Olympics is 50 meters. Rapid-fire timed shooting in 3-gun (an event where the shooter is switching between semi-auto rifle, shotgun, and pistol on a firing course) can have targets at 10 times that distance, and precision rifle events in the US have shooters firing over 1,000 yards.
While I do like dunking on ammosexuals, the reason that the US isn't at the top of this sport is that the popular pistol shooting sports, in the US, are different. The US shooting sport community is more focused on action shooting styles of competition. Trick shots, speed shooting, target accuracy while moving/on moving targets, in close combat simulations, etc. Also long range rifle marksmanship, and alternative shooting marksmanship like air rifles.
If you look at the history of things like skeet shooting, very long range target shooting, air rifle, and a few other the US does very well.
Great, now we should start doing some high-quality Persona 5 memes next!
Great picture!
Better than half the shows airing this season.

My Quest to Become an Olympic Champion in Another World
That title makes way too much sense to be an anime title, it should be like Revolution Breakfast or Friday Night Jump Package or something.
That title looks like a typical sports anime title.
- Haikyu!!
- Kuroko's Basketball
- Blue Lock
- Hajime no Ippo
- Ace of Diamond
- Slam Dunk
- Major
- The Prince of Tennis
- Yowamushi Pedal
- One Outs
- Baby Steps
I could go on, but I think I've made my point.

Have you? Kinda seems like you made my point, but whatevs!
Or it should be a whole sentence explaining the basic premise of the show.
"I went to the Olympics for shooting and now I run an ice cream truck business without a freezer in Midgar"
That would only work if it's an isekai. I'm not against the idea of a pistol sports shooting isekai though.
Danmachi seemingly popularized the super-long titles and isn't an isekai.
"Help! I woke up trapped as one of the guns used for the Olympics"
Euh, sword art online s2 exists haha
"That time I got reincarnated as a 50 year old Turkish man and my only way to return my old life is to win an Olympic medal in pistol shooting"
"how can he be better at shooting than me? He wears glasses!"
pushes glasses up nose
I can already hear the montage of shocked gasps as each shot is fired.
Knowing anime they'll probably find some moronic way to sexualise it.
Glances at the sexual track record of olympic villages.
Haha, yeah. So unrealistic and out of place 😅
Slow motion bullet takes about 30 seconds to reach the target during which time we get the inner monologue of every character
"It's going to miss! But wait, what's happening? The bullet is bending in midair!!! Look at his incredible pose! Did he put spin on the bullet!? This must be Free To Play Ojiisan's legendary hidden technique!"
Free To Play Ojiisan's legendary hidden technique!
You absolute poet.
the Turkish shooter inner monologue be like:
I'd watch it.
Totally. This would be great.
If you want to see an amazing and unlikely sports show that actually exists, try Ping-pong the Animation. Art style takes a bit of getting used to but it's just such an engaging watch.
Looks interesting, thanks!
I watched a mahjong anime and it was pretty good.
There's a Mahjong anime? I must add this to my watch list so I can finally understand how to play.
There’s a Mahjong anime?
oh you have no idea
Please, what is it called?
Always starts with Saki (because Yuri). And then of course the real one we are all thinking about is Akagi. Might as well watch Kaiji while you're at it (it's a gamble anime).
