Glomp Someone
This will show you how to pull off and receive the move that Otaku all over love: the Glomp!
Steps
- Most importantly, get permission from the person you want to glomp. If someone else is glomping you, make sure they ask first.
- To give a glomp: Get an appropriate distance away from the person. If in a crowded place, only go a foot or two away and skip the next step. For the ultimate glomp, give enough room for a running start.
- Start running (but not too fast!).
- Right before you reach the person, crouch slightly and jump up. Option 1: Mid-jump, wrap your legs around the person's waist and wrap your arms around their shoulders. Option 2: Land your jump in front of them and use the momentum to lean forward and hug them.
- Cling to them, otherwise you will lose your grip and fall.
- Step off/away from the person.
- To Receive A Glomp: Stand with your feet firmly on the ground.
- Tense you muscle to brace for the impact.
- As the person glomping you hits, wrap your arms around their lower back and hold them up. You may have to step backwards to keep from falling.
Warnings
- Be cautious when doing this in costume or cosplay. You don't want anyone's costumes to get ripped or broken!
- Be sure you know the person. You can really make them mad if they don't know you.
- Be careful in crowded areas. If you fall, you could cause a domino affect and hurt bystanders.
- Be careful not to do this near any stairs, escalators, or anything that could cause harm to the person you are glomping.
- Always ask first!
